I haven't come across any funnies yet, other than maybe my badass hammerman "Smilepuns." :-\

It's funny you should say that, but what I should be doing is rebuilding a database that maps experimentally determined carcinogenic mutations in protein kinases to known structures as part of a human-annotated cancer research resource.  What I'm actually doing is reading the DF forums.

One of the adventurers I made was given the last name "Knifeballs", also I found a clothing store called "The Fruity Mead". I found plenty more, I wish I could remember them.

I found some cool ones too though, like a place called "The Ominous Shadows" with 6 giants living in it. An elf adventurer I made was given the name Masami Alinorile or "Masami Dawnrider", unfortunately she's going to die because I decided to trek through mountains I couldn't shift-T past without food or water.

The whimsical forests... It was haunted.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

I was checking biomes in Dwarf Fort mode, and I actually got "The Mighty Jungle".

And thus did the dream of dwarven antigravity fade away, not with a massive explosion or a flood of magma, but with a whimper.

I'm going to be depressed all day now.

Started a game as a Hammerdwarf. The RNG's first suggestion?

I am not going to let this guy die. *heads off to the shield store*


EDIT: bah, got ambushed by a pack of some of my ungodly creations on the way to the human town.

Also, Dodok Walledmastered.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

Currently my adventurer got a title from killing a giant. It has made me question his sexuality ever since. "Ethlal Clutchpads the Virgin of Depths"

Cradleransack. Unfortunately we can't use thieves in fortress mode yet, otherwise I'd be making a multiracial fortress.
