I still get uncontrollable giggles whenever I see something about "The passing on of the ass monster curse" in legends. I know it means "Weredonkey" but god is it funny.

[JerseyP]

One of the cities I went to was named Fancypartner. I thought that was pretty funny.

I just found the best name for a book. EVAR.


The Book.

The Book.

Quick, set up a two-millennium religion based around it, shaping western civilization!

[PTTG??]

I just found the best name for a book. EVAR.

The Book.

"The book" is shorthand for what would otherwise be the titles of other books. I'm not sure if it is triggered by length of the title being inserted, the total length that would be produced, or the number of nested titles (The book about the book about the book...)

There are similar titles such as "Can "The Dwarf: Fact or Fiction?" Save the World?", which comes from the title raw "Can [NO_ART_NAME] Save the World?"

There is a book title which is simply "[NAME]".

I aught to add "[NO_ART_NAME]" so we can get a book titled "Book". Then make an adventurer named "Adventurer" and give him a sword called "Sword"...

A group called The Angelic Citadel.

I have come upon such scholarly titles as "Can the Tower Save the World?" and "Low Rainbows"

These were found in a necromancer tower that accepted me with open arms, so clearly they must be pretty cool dudes.

In legends mode, I came upon this guy.

In the early autumn of 431, the human Cado Playedboy became an enemy of The Humble Pick.

Playedboy. No kidding.

(Additionally, "The Humble Pick" is kind of an interesting name for a dwarven civ)


EDIT: I just found a river called "The Crowd of Sandals." Must be a pretty prolific tourist destination.

Lob, the lizard fiend.
But wait, his name isn't actually Lob! It's Piware! He tricked the Nation of Sacks into thinking he was Lob! He basically forged the nation of sacks into the roman empire, stomping on elves and goblins with glee, and in his down time he wrote novels!
Including Familia Spine: Common Practice, and A humble offering to Lob.

Dwarf Fortress might be a hilarious name generator dressed as a game.

Hello!

I have just genned a new world for adventuring and, as always, I went into legends mode (history hidden) to get the parameters and maybe have a look whether there are interesting gods around. At a first glance, I like to look for gods usually depicted as something alien, like a cougar, or an ant queen. Going through the gods, I noticed a dwarven civ called "The Dangerous Work", which immediately reminded me of something :) :) :) :) :) :)

Anyhow, curious about whether any dwarves of it actually survived, I checked the sites list and found that it was extremely successful and thriving. Interesting enough, they have even integrated goblins into their society. Note these mountain halls:

807: Ngot墨etur, "Cultboulders", mountain halls
   Owner: The Salve of Packing, dwarves
   Parent Civ: The Dangerous Work, dwarves
   1499 dwarves
   3339 goblins
   372 dogs
   372 guineafowls
   50 rabbits

I mean, sure, taking over the goblins when conquering a dark tower is no surprise, but having the goblins spread in large numbers through the civ...

But this world is already something special for me, since there seem to be finally again goblin civs who team up with demons. In the 0.34.x worlds, more than half the human civs have a demon or some such in their hierarchy, but very few goblin civs have any demons or devils in them (except for occasional prisoners!).

The dark fortress right next to the mountain halls above in the list is a good example - with the additional benefit of the demon fitting nicely to the name of the site:

808: B・ab, "Nightmaretame", dark fortress
   Owner: The Nightmare of Conflagration, goblins
   Parent Civ: The Famous Curses, goblins
   38 humans
   53 goblins
   1 rabbit devil

A rabbit devil. A rabbit. In a dark fortress which is called "Nightmaretame"... Okay, I really hope adventures go well in this world :) :) :)

Yours,
Deathworks

Just had a run in with a goblin group that called themselves "The Ugly Stalker"
...at least they were open about it.

[Chagen46]

My Jungle-world got a civ called "The Mechanical Seductions".

....Okay.....

[Chagen46]

And now I generated the Female human adventurer, Ecsha Sedastworu Moistsnuggles.

She must be quite moe or something.
