There's only one god I want my dwarves to care about, and I can't even curse them.
Drown them in magma and death, but nothing spiritual... *sigh

[Loud Whispers]

Time out for a second, wouldn't an atheist dwarf be a guaranteed non-cursed dwarf?

No, you can be cursed by gods you don't worship.

Which then causes the Dwarf to worship that God.

Well, that's quite a way to end atheological debate, isn't it?

I almost certain it ain't so joe. I only need a willing vamp.

What if you had the power to smite Dwarves, but doing it in the presence of other Dwarves (or in such a way as to make other Dwarves believe you did it), caused them to worship you so vehemently and mindlessly that they would ignore orders and begin constructing a temple to you in the nearest available large enough space, using whatever material is closest to hand?

Then when they build you a temple out of steel and candy, emptying your reserves for a useless building outside of your fort during a siege..... While you scream at them to stop building in sight of the archers..

This, is exactly what my dwarves fo anyways.

Dammit.

sounds like a mighty fine megaproject to me.

I figured they had to do something stupid to get a god to curse them (like urinating on the high preist of the shiney crap god/goddess or painting graffiti on the temple of the fertility god/goddess.) Plus I've seen dwarves opt to instead worship monsters instead of gods. Spearbreakers has a massive atheist population, but the next largest group is a group of dwarves who worship two different titans/forgtten beasts. Dwarves who worship dwarven gods are almost nonexistant in that fort.

I doesn't always make them worship that god, there are atheist vampires, and atheist were-beasts. I've killed many.

But were these the products of god-cursing?

[reality.auditor]

Fun fact: you will never see Armok as worshipped god in dwarf description. Probably because you are Armok in this game.

I wonder what it is they think they were cursed by? Radiation?

A god.
