[Punching Bag]

I have this badass adventurer that I want to make a noble inside of one of my fortresses, but whenever I retired him there and unretired the fortress, he didn't show up in the citizens screen. I tried again just to make sure I didn't do something wrong, but I'm positive now that he's not being added to the fortress. Every time I check on him he's back in the last town I retired him in, and when I check the fortress it's still at its pre-retire population count. Is there a specific way I'm supposed to do this or is it impossible to get adventurers to be in your fortress?

I think that even if the adventurer was to appear in the fort, he wouldn't appear as a citizen, but as "friendly".
I did something similar in Masterwork mod, using DFHack to retire a kobold village I made and embarking as dwarves. The kobolds appeared friendly to the dwarves, but I couldn't force them to do anything.

You can retire him in the fortress, then go there in fortress mode, and use the command in DF Hack to force the selected creature to become a member of your fortress. That should work

I did it once but it involved a few soldiers for my human (who were also human) and claim the site for myself, asking my soldier buddies to assist in an insurrection and then slay the mayor who I said I own this site. However upon reopening fort mode they were marked "Hostlie" and were not attacking anyone that came near them. I haven't done it recently though and it was on an older version too.

In the last version you could retire adventurers in the land marked "mountainhome" and they would show up as migrants sans equipment
