Wish we could gather vomit and create some sort of vomitorium

There are "vomitoriums" in Dwarf Fortress. I've seen the idea in the Wiki. Ironically, however, is that it is actually some kind of a courtyard or park for the dwarfs to sunbath and not get cave adaptation, and that means they won't vomit.

So vomitoriums are created to prevent vomitting.

I love that it's even possible for things like this to happen, but still.. wow. Disgusting. Behold:



Deadly is right. I'm scared just to picture it

That is not even one of the more disgusting or dangerous ones. You will face giant eight-legged lizards made out of steel, with noxious secretions in this game.

Also ass monsters with noxious vapors. Remember, "ass" is related to the donkey. Get your mind out of the gutter.

I think the vomitoriums were used to alleviate cave adaptation, which resulted in a lot of dwarves vomiting. They also prevent cave adaptation, which in turn prevents further vomiting.

yea, that sounds slightly bizarre and very dangerous (i wouldn't even try to fight a creature made out of steel ), but not disgusting at all and somewhat it even sounds cool.

I mean, imagine a living thing like this with 2 additional legs, and bigger of course:




Vomit is definitely one of the most disgusting materials.

Yeah, I'm still pretty newb to DF. Just started playing two weeks ago... literally instant obsession; late nights... all-nighters even... and I'm 27 with a full-time job! I should not be this excited about games anymore, but damnit Tarn

It's just so Fun

Yup, I hear ya.  I discovered DF a few years back while on vacation.  I spent most of the week playing it, then daydreaming about it at work when I got back .

i totally understand you guys, i think i need a withdrawal therapy.

I haven't played for some years and i got sucked in instantly. The new utility, interface mods and features make thinks worse. I actually feel guilty...

Does the fact that said secretions could well cause the victims to have all their skin rot off count as disgusting?

[Sutremaine]

The forgotten beast Cironoomula has come! A great humanoid composed of an unknown substance...

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

At least FBs made out of liquids are fairly easy to kill. I found one made of mud once. Some random kid punched it, severing its arm and making it slop all over the cavern floor.

I wouldn't be too confident. I had lots of trouble with one of those one time...

Hard to tell.

Would a fluffy kitten, but venomous, be disgusting? For me, the effects of the poison would be disgusting, but not the kitty itself.

If you would see a colorful frog your initial reaction wouldn't be "ewwww, look at that frog, hes so disgusting". Or a toxic, colorful bird.




But yea, the imagination of dwarfs without skin is disgusting.

Now imagine those dwarves covered in vomit spit.

[Deepblade]

That sounds like a military project to toughen soldiers.

No, It's probably just a lack of soap. You would need to burn off all of their skin and fat with magma mist, and then cover them in vomit spit for it to be considered a military project to toughen soldiers.
