What's your civ's symbol?
« on: October 15, 2008, 06:47:22 pm »

Was just flipping though the decorated narrow stuff and noticed my civ's symbol is naked mole dogs

What really irks me is the fact that I went to some lengths to get a parent civ with a decent symbol, an armor stand, and a proper name instead of the usual Incest Hole and now the game slaps my OCD with this. Bah

A Giant.  "The Esteemed Spotted Metal-Lance" to be precise.

I don't know if it's the civ symbol or fortress symbol, only that it pops up a lot.

How do you tell what your fort's symbol is? It just shows up on lots of engraving?

If you have the Show history in Dwarf Mode thing up, when looking at engravings, certain ones will mention that they're the symbol of your civ or local government.

The symbol for my fort's civ is a dwarf, the civ is called the urn of woman.

I wonder if female homosexuality is rampant, mmm lesbians.

I usually have Dwarves as a civ symbol.  Though I've also had stuff as boring as "a square".

Though yes, i do often get stupid names.

My civ symbol is a Tower-Cap.  My local symbol is two dwarves.  Seeing as the group is called The Sacrificial Chamber, I wonder exactly what the two dwarves are doing.

My Civ symbol is a wave, and the group symbol is a tanned hide.

Which my tanner never gets around to making before the hides rot, go figure.

Why would you need to savescum to do that?  *confused*

(edit)  Oh, um, yeah.  Mine is a Human, and the only humans I've seen came stumbling outta the HFS...  :)

'cause the fort is still current. I just wanted to see if it would be a hilarious coincidence what kind of demons I got from my pits.
