IIRC there was something about hiding it as well, but don't qoute me on that.

My current fort is at the start of its 13th year, and I've yet to see anything really. I'm fully loaded on artifacts too, got a lot of them still being hauled by their creators.

It would be really interesting to see a jealous behavior-type in the dwarves.
They might try and kill another dwarf who creates an artifact if he carries it around for years, so it might make sense that he would hide it.

This is cool.  I was totally convinced the OP had made this up entirely and was just yanking our chains about there being an undiscovered behavior in the game - seemed really unlikely given how carefully everything's been scrutinized.  But it's really cool that such things are still there to be discovered.

Wow, I've been playing and modding for well over a year maybe 2 now and have never ever even seen this. What else lurks in the code I wonder?

Was this a guess or did I miss a post somewhere?

Hi!

So how long had your fort been running when you got the obsessed message?</STRONG>


Now you have really scared me. You see, one of the first, if not the first artifact that was created in my current fortress is "Usanurvad, Murderseal, a Moonstone cabinet". I always wondered about that name ...
