The count mandates that three large gems be made. So I set a lever in a lava flood
room, hook it to the floodgates, and set the workshop profile like so:

A few minutes later, soothing pink text. But something wasn't quite right about it. I took a closer look at the announcement log:

THE COUNT SENT HIS MISTRESS TO PULL THE LEVER FOR HIM!

The next dwarf to walk near that room is getting named Lennie Briscoe.

roofls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I seriously think Toady gave the dwarves the ability to learn. But nothing useful, only how to avoid death when you WANT them dead. Otherwise they only learn how to die when you DON'T want them dead!

Considering this was the SECOND noble to die by pulling that lever... I'm frightened.

All of the levers are linked up to their respective doors. Once an unwanted dwarf walks in(or is carried in incase of maimed peasants), the door gets locked. For a long time.

For atmosphere, don't re-use these catacombs and build entire rows of them. It's funny to see what adventurers will find when they unlock the doors...

skeletons, clothes and some blue and brown arrows?
ratmen that snuck up there?
treasure carried by the unlucky inhabitant?
a titan that got lost when exploring the fort?

next thing you know is that he marries another dwarf (which i know is technically impossible... unless spouses get resent like other nobles)

In the dwarven justice system, some crimes are considered especially heinous, and are of the highest order of punishment to the perpetrators.  These are their stories *koo-koooooohh*

I know it has nothing to do with this thread, but I just had the funniest thought while reading the DNA stuff - dwarves with Obsessive Compulsive Disorders.
