Started up a new volcano-forge fort, and in the first year an elven caravan showed up carrying a remarkable item (value 42010):

This is a well-crafted grown pitch-black fabric bila. It is made from pitch-black fabric cloth. The bellows is made from screaming mouths. The bag is made from pitch-black fabric. The melody pipe is made from olive wood. The drone pipes are made from guava wood.

Spoiler: So....a demonic bagpipe? (click to show/hide)

And it's also made from pitch-black fabric, which is another generated fabric. Did you buy it?

Fun fact: Godly cloth has a value multiplier of x900, the highest of any material.

[Random_Dragon]

Yeah, good fucking luck affording that. XP

Christ, I wish we could get someone to draw that, it must look (and sound) utterly horrifying.

For some horror retardant - I bet if you played it it would sound like this.

I recently experienced a rather curious magma based incident in a place called GateHold. I was trying to make the wonderful liquid flow out of the mountain for !!Fun!!, but a small miscalculation (read: everything) caused a massive wave of the stuff to flow straight into my temple This caused me to lose around 30 little psychopaths in one fell swoop, and a tantrum spiral finished it from there. And a couple cave floaters which constantly sent my dwarves to the hospital, where they would go insane and try to kill everyone else in said hospital. Fun.

Sadly no. If I had had any kind of military at all, I'd have been tempted to slaughter the elf caravan and take it.

Would have fit in nicely with my temple to Ibruk, Dwarven God of Death which is adorned with statues of various dwarves (and some humans) throughout history having their limbs ripped off by various goblins and elves. Because that's all my mason ever wants to make statues of. (I think this guy has some deep-seated issues.)

A miner with some elf blood in her (how else would she get a fey mood but from elf influence?) made an artifact: Adilaral, The Walled Woman, an orpiment millstone.  So I guess this means I'll need to figure out the flour industry.  (DF is one of those classic games I always come back to, but never master.)

Best. Flour. Ever.

If your neighbours remain stubbornly pacifist then liberally apply death to all non-dwarvern caravans and you should be good to go.  I tend to drown them, since I long ago worked out such technicalities as caravan disposal and am attached to my designs, but you could use any means at your disposal.

I have been thinking about doing these to mainly elf caravans as they have yet to provide me with any useful items other than crutches. If I am lucky I can grab some seed bags or even alcohol off of them. Drowning them may seem like a viable option as I am next to a river. I could have them fall into a deep hole that has little holes for water to run off to. Sadly I don't have an aquifer for it to go to so I guess I could have it come back up to the well or river so I could grab any loot.

I'm still not getting any human, dwarven, elven, or goblin hostiles. ;w;

Damn. The screaming mouths is nightmare-aligned. Also, I'm pretty sure the pitch-black fabric is night-aligned. Maybe darkness-aligned.

Well, about time I retired this fort. Got one last artifact before then.

Spoiler: Would be a lot cooler if he hadn't used up some of my steel for this thing (click to show/hide)

Finished up pretty much everything I wanted to do here - commissioned some more demented images for my unholy cathedral.

Lastly, an image of a congregation taking place

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Those rooms on the sides are all smaller chapels dedicated to other gods - the only exception is the slightly larger one on the upper right - that's the harbingers room.

The queen was killed by a werepanther.

A new king arrived with the outpost liaison.
Now we are the mountainhome.

That is some seriously inventively sadistic artwork, my friend.

That is some seriously inventively sadistic artwork, my friend.

i actually got some bone parts (from steaks) lying about for some bonecrafts, but i've never thought about such dark artworks for them.
that would actually make their worth quadruple if i 'd engrave that to those small pieces of bone.
