if we find a weight rune, think of what we can do!

Put weakening runes in it untill whatever item it gets put on floats? Anyway, I doubt we'll reach new runes without trouble. And when trouble arrives, it's best to have the pointy bits being sharp and the smashy bits being heavy. We can put shining gems on them after forging, anyway.

Edit:
Hmm. We could also make superheavy hammers and projectiles. Or we could put enough of them on a platinum block to make it fall through the world, creating a bottomless pit that drains the sea.

Should we get male-female in case we have to repopulate the world, or male-male so we don't risk in-combat births?

What do you mean "risk"? It is not a risk, it's a benificial feature! (remember the dog in Boatmurdered?)

 An extra shield and potentially an extra minion in a few years. If the mother is easy to anger the loss of this flesh shield can also induce berserk and other stuff that increases the subjects combat usefullness. (until she starts attacking you)

They are Lizardmen, they lay eggs. Combat rarely involves sitting on nest boxes.

Good points. We should take male-female and create a nestbox.

Trying to utilize some kind of Dwarven Childcare to breed an army of lizard-spartans?

There's one thing standing in our way: the lizards are probably not partners and we lack the social skills to hook them up. Especially in sign language.

So, either we make the female stand near the lizard fort for a while and hope that she has a mate within spore range OR we just stick a nestbox in the tavern and start serving omelets. (unfertilized since no mate)

Wait, why are we talking about this?

Becouse more lizards is better. And we might be able to learn lizardish; our lingustic ability can't be that bad.

Edit:
Also, learning lizard would probably increase our social skills as well, so long as we don't take a class on it.

Now we need a how. If we take a class in lizard, we might increase our student but we won't get any social skills. It may be neccecairy to learn basic lizard that way, though. Once we've learned adequate or compatent lizard, we should be able to increase it via travel and tavern dialogue.

Yes. Let's become the dwarven ambassador to the lizardmen. We might even be able to fully integrate them into dwarven society.
