"Create three items out of crystal glass for me before the month is out."

Sadly, my most recent Baron and his Consort both happened to like crystal glass... was a pity, the rest of their demands probably wouldn't have been hard to meet.

The resulting party killed 20 dwarves, crippled 2 more and the remaining 9 managed to get along and have a nice party.

Doppel has been ecstatic lately. He took joy in playing DF lately. He slept on a rough cave keyboard recently.
He is a member of the Dwarf Fortress Forums.
Doppel likes the color Dark Blue, cats for their aloofness and girls for their silky soft brea beards.
He appreciates art and natural beauty.

Oddly enough I find it weird that Dwarves currently cannot attain godhood.

"I'll just grab this sock that's directly inbetween a rushing river and a huge 15 z-level pit. Oh! What's this! The bottom z-level seems to be rushing towards me!"

It happened to 12 of my dwarves and 9 of my pets.

The best thing was watching the Dwarf Bits and Cat Bits spreading out with the water.

"Well, I'm supposed to break down this warm wall. I think if I run really fast I can make it out of the tunnel before the lava reaches me!"

"Those turtle shells won't do! I need cave lobster shells!"

God I hate it when that happens...

This topic reminds me of Space Quest. Oh, the many ways you can die in that game.

This thread begs for more like these. I need ideas.

DISCLAIMER:
All posts related to this is based on the Space Quest Series. One hell of a game.

True, but at a certain velocity the resulting explosion expels invader-bits at fatal speeds. You don't want to be dropping trogdolyte-shaped shrapnel bombs into your boneworks.
Only in Dwarf Fortress...
