They couldn't get in the way fast enough.

Ulrik Thunderfist waited. The lamps above him blinked and flickered out of the air. There
were demons in the fortress. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His
warnings to the Hammerer were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late
for now, anyway.
Ulrik was a marksdwarf for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the
warriors and he said to dad "I want to be on the fortifications daddy."
Dad said "No! You will BE KILL BY DEMONS"
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in
the underground fortress of the dwarves he knew there were demons.
"This is Rakust" the message crackered. "You must fight the demons!"
So Ulrik gotted his corssbow and blew up the wall.
"HE GOING TO KILL US" said the demons
"I will shoot at him" said the spirit of fire and he fired the fireball. John
bolted at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were
trapped and not able to kill.
"No! I must kill the demons" he shouted
The message said "No, Ulrik. You are the demons"
And then Ulrik was a goblin.

In my current fort, Chamberletters with no less than 335 dwarves, I found my, to be, military commander. This guy was a legendary woodcutter, no weaponry skills, wearing only a silk cap and his trusty axe, he was ambushed by 5 gobbo pikemen and 6 gobbo swordsmen. I drafted him and he opened a can of Armok-blessed anger on them. Only a tattered silk cap and a patterned steel axe.

He is now Mistêm Bloodcraft the Executioner of Bone.

I still think thats an awesome name.

That and he "doesn't really care about anything anymore", so he'll make an excellent soldier.

i have one,hes name is "the slayer"(i called him that cause the guy has ober 500 kills,wears adamatine masterpiece hammer with bone and jewel decorations worth over 100,000 and the best armor(masterpiece adamatine decoraded with bones and jewels(the whole set)))

the guy is indestructible takes a whole siege down himself without a single scratch.hes a hammer dwarf with every combat skill legendary.he also took down a mega beats with 3 other men(they were legendary aswell but got killed)the guy got so many broken bones and shit hes been in a bed for about 5 years now.hes also got the best mausoleom in my whole fort.

If this guy really exists I don't think you'll ever know how hard I'll laugh when he tantrums from some of his sparring buddies getting killed. He'll take down your entire fortress and cause a spiral when he tantrums. Heaven forbid you drive him to misery and he goes  berserk.

The best solider I have ever had also has the coolest name I have ever seen.  Sigun Saramatis the Fortunate Failure of Seals.  He has 33 notable kills mostly because he is the first to sieges and his name suggests he was the happiest accident his parents ever had, that and the lawsuit they levied against the Trojan empire paid for thier royal bedroom/dining room.

The only military I've got in a haunted forest, Urist has been patrolling outside the fortress walls for one full year now:





*edit*
 there was an indecent with a Fire Imp.  I haven't figured out if Fire Imp meat will set things on fire or if the imp set a dwarf on fire who then immolated the kitchens (quite a blaze - the stockpiles smoldered for more than a year).  Somewheres about 3/4 of the fortress' population then decides its time for a snack, somehow manage to all pile into there in about 3 seconds of RL time, and as I had not yet realized the kitchens were in fact on fire . . .

All the survivors tantrum.  Urist gets pissed off because his friend Nil died so he takes it out on the dwarf next to him, his other friend Obok, killing him instantly.  In the days to come, Urist realizes what a good chum ol' Obok was and starts to feel a certain way about life in general.  A cow got between him and Death, and Urist cassually loped its head off while on his way out of the fortress (before he goes berserk!) and onto eternal patrol.

Three other dwarves survived the tantrum spiral and are doing a brisk business in the skull totem decorated with bone trade.

The Dwarves of Mirrorpack have managed to make an impenetrable fortress w/ an entry that uses hatch covered channels and pressure plates to force hostiles into a pathing loop through a trapped and fortified hallway and the hallway itself can be sealed w/ a bridge near the outdoor entrance to trap things inside or keep them out.  So Urist's march is really rather unnecessary, but he dosen't really care about anything anymore, takes joy in slaughter, and is just ecstatic to be bashing skeletons.
