Goblin shavers.
They'll raid your fort, capture your most bearded dwarf and shave him.

They then use this hair to create beard golems!

An Eternal Sleep curse that forces the target to sleep until the curse is broken.  If cast on your adventurer, you are kicked to the regular sleeping screen, but it never ends.  World events continue to be processed.  You cannot exit unless your character wakes up, and there is no guarantee that the curse will ever be broken.

And when you wake up you find out that you are famous and you own the whole world.

Or that you were raped by a nobleman and gave birth while asleep.

A sleeping curse wouldn't be terrible in and of itself if your adventurer was immortal for the duration and you could "retire" for the duration of the curse.

It has a high probability of closely aligning to the "Spin thread" task.

The curse can only be cured by true love's kiss, but since adventures can't do romance there's no cure for them.

Introducing Dwarf Fortress; Darwinist edition + Atheist pack
Instead of some wacky cray cray religious creation myths, you must wait a billion years until some monkey-like fellas involve into dwarves, humans, elves and goblins. Unless dinosaurs don't go extinct.

But that would take years to simulate on your average processor! Can't we just assume the average end result from a few dozen models?

A remake of Sim Earth sounds actually like a good idea.

Years? We've got to do the evolution in real time. Can't have the player miss anything important.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

For extra DF realism arrows should disappear if they land in the grass. They are hidden and forbidden and the player cannot unhide or unforbid them. They still exist to lower your fps though.
