Theif Caste? As in a Dwarf genetically destined to become a thief?

That is rather sad

Sure would be interesting to see theif-caste nobles. Imagine the conflict of interest of the hammerer... But, then again, that's the kind of stories that Toady wants, right?

I'd actually very much like to see actual, personality-based crime in fortresses, rather than the current
"dwarf is too unhappy = dwarf is a criminal"
approach.

It'd open up so many methods of play, as well as stories, from working out how to deal with the kleptomaniac who is also the hammerer's son, to watching your mayor murder your baron for seducing his wife, to players selectively breeding fortresses full of dwarves genetically prone to criminal behaviour.

I am ToonyMan!  You killed my father.  Prepare to die.


On that note, having fencing in DF would be a nice addition to think about!

That would have knights and yaddha yaddha.

Yeah, you can always tell by the shape of their head.

You know, the narrow chin and the eyes close together, slack jaw with a prominent overbite.

The list is becoming thinner and thinner. Right now there is :

1 blue* item and 1 white item left in "Map Feature".
3 blue* items and 8 white items in "Squads".
10 white items in "Other unfinished business".
6 white items in "Final".

(blue = at least that blue)

That amount to a total of 29 items, including 4 blue ones. Seems so close to the release..

Anyone else notice that Scamps seems to be coming out of a portal on the top of the cat tree?
