Holy crap you're alive.

Hypothetically, if Tarmid were to ask your dwarf about Steelhold, how much of the truth would he get?

All of it, with a warning that "I was insane. Then I became depressed. I cannot promise I have remembered everything correctly."

The question then becomes "Would anyone actually believe the amount of crazy in the truth, or just assume that they're being lied to?"

The hilarious moment when you've been the one reading it offhandedly and then forgetting about it due to your characters eccentricity.

I feel like it's a good time to remind everyone that my character is schitzo, tormented by the voices of the dead, and on copious amounts of drugs.

So, in other words, the perfect person for Sir Brenzen to recruit :P

...Did you forget exactly how absurd my characters backstory is, even by the standards of dwarves?

That's a good point. It's even weirder than Flame's. At least she comes from within Dwarf Fortress.

Isn't Flame some sort of ambassador from the Demon Empire trying to negotiate peace with the dwarves of Demongate? I'd say despite most dwarves assuming that she's just insane, she's been doing a good job considering the Hellguard is actively trying to avoid a Hell breach.

That's true, but she didn't actually have anything to do with it. Except for maybe producing all the spikes lining the demons' entry hallway.

That's just my point: she's such a good ambassador that she doesn't even need to negotiate peace; things just work out her way.

The weapon traps themselves could simply be a placebo. If the dwarves think they're safe from hell, they don't need to invade hell and there's no need for war. Flame's job is done, and no one even knows she did it.

That moment when you realize that your character is more devious than you are.

Wait a minute I think I lined that hall way with the spears and spikes in my turn plus the doors. :P

Actually, I set up the majority of the spears, I just wasn't able to link them up to a lever before the end of my turn.
