I've had goblin drunks and so on being barons. It's normal. Civilisation in Dwarf Fortress is far more multi-species than people think, mostly because for a long time, you couldn't have a multi-species fort without modding. Even today, all other-species residents seem to require a period of residency before they claim citizenship in the fortress, even though they were citizens of the parent civilisation.

Given current events, I've altered my profile pic and I'm sorry it took so long to fix. If you find the old one on any of my accounts elsewhere on the internet, let me know by message (along with the specific site) and I'll fix. Can't link the revised avatar for some reason.

That is only acceptable if he declared war to the elves, if he didnt he deserves an 'accident'.

You'd have to wait a number of releases before you can go to the mountainhome to arrange unfortunate accidents.

Or just 'hire' an adventurer to do the job in the current version.

Goblins dont die of age so they tend to hold positions of leadership for long times.
