Criminal Migrant?
« on: March 08, 2020, 11:21:20 am »
I got a migrant who has a profession of "criminal". Is it worth keeping this guy? He hasn't seemed to have done anything yet. On the other hand, I am very suspicious of him. I made him bookkeeper since he's a fisherdwarf by default and I don't have a bookkeeper yet.

Which version are you playing?  There was a bug that was meant be fixed in 47.03 (see http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Criminal).

He's not a criminal. Criminal isn't a type of migrant (there being no "criminal" skill). So you're either seeing a criminal visitor (or someone pretending to be one), or as the post above says, you'playing an older version of the game (in which case, he's still not a criminal, he's just unable to stop pretending to be one).
