Apon entering an old, zombie infested fortress, I pulled a few levers for some pumps to pump out the deeper chambers of the fortress, that way I could obtain the various goodies I've stored deep in the fortress. Unfortunatly, the water flooded the housing chambers, wiping out several zombies. To get away, I fled up to the top of the high tower. Since it was unfinished, I could escape via the scaffolding. Unforunatly, there was a skeletal giant eagle nearby. I attacked me, however I cut off it's left wing. I attacked me one final time, I dodged and fell off the battlements.

Into the garbage pit.

Attacking a major, then dodging off the second floor to the first. While I'm stunned, I find out that, yes, you can wrestle opponents a z-level below you, as my leg was crippled.

Then the town people came.

Heres my most embarassing death:
I had a full suit of steel plate, a masterpiece iron sword and you know what happened to me? I got shot by a blind marksman! HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? >:( >:( >:(

Taking an Orc adventurer and Attacking a human town.

I was slaughtering everyone since the archers hadn't come.

However, I happened upon a merchant baron. He knocked me out with a single hit, and pummeled me to death.

I started as an axedwarf and began in a dwarven fortress with a chasm running through it. I spawned next to a dozen troglodytes, who almost instantly ripped me to shreds.

Then I looked at my adventurer in Legends. Apparently, to be killed by a troglodyte is so shameful to dwarves that they immediately impaled my corpse on a pole.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

I had a legendary axeman, slayer of a thousand nightmares, who for the lulz assaulted a town at night.

The first shopkeeper I attacked parried in his sleep and disabled my legs. Then the children woke up. Oh gods...

Adding injury to injury.

EDIT: Rare fortress mode example: I just started my fort and I designate 2 dorfs to channel out the area above the entrace. This causes a collapse. My dorfs coume out unscathed, however. Then they cause another collapse, causing one to have a broken leg. The other gets back up-and causes ANOTHER collapse, this time crushing and killing the poor dorf before he can be toted off to bed. My other dorf is wounded and unable to work, and bleeds to death before I can do anything about it.

I abandoned that fort promptly.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

I found this fluffy wambler out of nowhere.


I decided to wrestle it.


I've gouged it's eyes out, and broke it's hands.

Guess what, it bites me in the neck. I get winded, I start running away, it decides that it's not done.


It bites me in the arm and hand.


I bleed to death.




THATS ONE FUCKING GODDAMN HARDCORE FLUFFY WAMBLER >:O

Only in Dwarf Fortress would you try to catch a mermaid to butcher her and make trophies out of her bones

That fluffy wambler must have been a distant cousin of the killer rabbit. You should have brought a holy handgrenade.

I swear, it might sound a bit brave but it must've looked very embarrasing irl:

I was strolling through the forests with my new adventurer when all of the sudden, 5 wolves ambushed me. No problem, I thought, I quickly dispatched 2 wolves, when suddenly, one wolf grabs my left arm and another one grabs my other arm...I tried to bite the wolves to death...

Gods, I hate the wolves. My usual tactic is to jump into the nearest body of water, swim to the other side, leave the water, and throw garbage at them. Repeat ad nauseam until they are all dead or close to it.

Unfortunately, one time I forgot to make sure the water wasn't infested with lampreys before diving in....
