Every once in a while, I like to mod in Orcs from Masterwork into regular ol DF to have some WAAAGH fun.

Have me a nice party of Goblins, ready to attack a hamlet.

There are no nearby hamlets.

So I went into a Dark Fort looking to get more recruits

Then my Goblins started a civil war, and my Orc got torn to bits by a dozen non friendly gobbos.

Did you know Masterwork Orcs can't do any movement except "Walk"? I didn't until then.

Nidilap likes Adamantine, Bituminous Coal, Garnets, Cats for their aloofness, Dwarves for their stupidity, and Swords for their Spikes and edges. When possible, he prefers to eat pizza, ramen noodles, and sushi. He absolutely detests elves and spiders. He needs MTN DEW to get through the working day.

A medium- sized creature prone to great ambition, but only when he feels like it.

Encased in ice...  because without noticing, I'd wandered over top of an evil, frozen ocean.  A wave washed up on shore and briefly created a puddle of water, which froze instantly, killing my character.

When you're following an angel, does it mean you have to throw your body off a building?

I made a ranged character.
At some point I encountered a lion. I fired several bolts at it with my crossbow, but none struck their mark.
I tried to flee, and I died.

It's not like an idea has to make sense for people to cling to it.

Raided a bandit camp, killed the chief

Fast traveled back to a village, was ambushed by a chieftess

In what I like to imagine was some kind of revenge story, the chieftess battled my human outsider, and after I got one stab to the lower body in, she crushed my advenutrer's skull with her silver warhammer.

Entered a labyrinth with no armor, a copper spear, and a single (also unarmored) companion armed with a steel pick. Got ambushed by 4 minotaurs. Died.

I later embarked over the same labyrinth. My adventurer's corpse was still there, one of the minotaurs had a copper spear stuck in his neck, and a second was apparently dead. I like to think it died to a wound I gave it.

I was bit by an ettin and shaken to death until I bled out.

Started out in the same town on my next adventurer and went on an "unassigned" mission to get revenge for my last adventurer, but when I got to his lair I found a mangled ettin corpse with a halberd stuck in him, as well as the corpse of my axeman companion.
