Well, a marksdwarf that had bashed up a bunch of things and was about to be beat down by the Queen decided instead to die by their own hand, like a warrior.
The marksdwarf threw himself from the bridge. Oh well. One less mouth to feed.
Why do these dwarves insist on dying in horrible fashions? I would just drink myself to death. Ive almost done it accidentally before, Im sure I could do it if I tried....especially if I was a dwarf. Why do they insist on drowning? Thats a horrible death!
I like the guys that try to jump...they provide me with the most entertaining deaths! Like my buddy Shorast here!
The horrible pressures of life at Blockedlance (and they ARE horrible) got the best of this guy. So to escape the misery of life in the last outpost of your nation, on the edge of goblin territory, ruled over by a genocidal satan worshipping Queen, this guy Shorast jumps down the stairway. The only problem is that the stairway only provides a 2 z-level fall. Sure it cripples you, but you got to drag your mangled body back up two levels to go for the killer blow.
See, you can see the trail of blood going up the ramp. Its rare to see it as its happening, Ive lucked out a couple times and its pretty funny. This guy is a trooper.
Although...he is pretty dumb...there is afterall a 10 z-level tower in the southeast of our fortress with a hole in the fortifications JUST FOR SUICIDES! No ones ever used it. Jerks. You try to provide for em, and look at the thanks you get!
You can see the Duchess searching his corpse for any silk.
Anyways, Urist beat down another criminal who was too slow in killing themselves. She brought along the Human Guild Representative this time too, so she could show him what happens to people who dont buy our useless junk.
I think he understood the message. He vomitted after witnessing the mangled dwarf die as it attempted to drag itself to a bed.
