15th Limestone, 241, Early Autumn

Self-professed disliker of conversations, Morul finally got enough time with his peeps to improve his social skills, becoming legendary consoler, negotiator, indimidator, persuader, judge of intent, pacifier, comedian, conversationalist, flatterer.

That makes 67 legendary stats in 41 years. Not too shabby.

A little closer examination has revealed the pattern which is slowing down sparring. Morul will head down to spar with another champion and usually on the first blow stun the other guy, which usually breaks off the sparring. Fortunately, there are still no serious injuries.

How are you going to get liar? Looks like thats the only one you might not be able to get.

Apparently the crossbow can be modded to train any skill. Once the normally achievable ones are done, I'll mod in the usually impossible ones such as throwing, etc.

I see what you did there.

I know that, i just thought that you didnt want to resort to such methods.

[Martin]

I know that, i just thought that you didnt want to resort to such methods.

For the achievable ones, I didn't. But for the others, there's really no other way, so I was going to wait until all of the achievable ones were done (close!) and then look at doing those. I'll upload a save before those other methods are employed if anyone wants a (nearly) pristine legendary dwarf. I'll also writeup the bits that kept Morul from being totally pristine.

[AtomicPaperclip]

What are you gonna do with him when he's done? Abandon? Or do something really fun like drop him from the highest z level and see how much damage he takes?

Well, turn him over to you guys, mostly. See what the community has in mind for him. There's a number of things I haven't yet touched. The HFS hasn't been breached, and if it contains the same goodies as the last fortress I played on this map, Morul should have great fun. I have 2 caged GCS that I haven't done anything with. People can test out his ability to survive falls. I've stocked up on metal, gems, wood, adamantine, etc. so you have pretty much whatever you need to cook up activities for him.

[ousire]

heh, the minute you upload that save for us to download, poor morul is going to be in a world of hurt like no dwarf has ever seen 

[Kroack]

Morul is as awesome as this guy...

[Masennus]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Churchill

Holy shit. That guy IS awesome.

"Leading from the front, Churchill infiltrated the town with only a corporal in support. He kidnapped a sentry and forced him to make his comrades surrender. Churchill and the riflemen walked out of town with 42 prisoners and a mortar squad."

and

"In later years, Churchill served as an instructor at the land-air warfare school in Australia, where he became a passionate devotee of the surfboard. Back in England, he was the first man to ride the River Severn’s five-foot tidal bore and designed his own board."

The second quote inspires me to see what kind of floods Morul can surf once he retires.

[Elliott_Thinas]

'Churchill gave the signal to attack by cutting down the enemy Feldwebel (sergeant) with his barbed arrows, becoming the only known British soldier to have felled an enemy with a longbow in the course of the war.[2]'

Arrows are just as effective in real life as in DF!!!

[Martin]

Actually, I always though of Morul more like this guy: Simo Hayha.

Since the majority of fighting took place in the forest, he figured the best way to stop the invasion was to grab his trusty rifle, a couple of cans of food and hide in a tree all day shooting Russians. In six feet of snow. And 20-40 degrees below zero.

Of course when the Russians heard that dozens of their men were going down and that it was all one dude with a rifle, they got fucking scared. He became known as "The White Death" because of his white camouflage outfit, and they actually mounted whole missions just to kill that one guy.

They started by sending out a task force to find Hayha and take him out. He killed them all.

Then they tried getting together a team of counter-snipers (which are basically snipers that kill snipers) and sent them in to eliminate Hayha. He killed all of them, too.

Over the course of 100 days, Hayha killed 542 people with his rifle. He took out another 150 or so with his SMG, sending his credited kill-count up to 705.

Has a nice writeup on Mad Jack in there as well as a few others.

Whee, as well as reading Prachett books, seems like lots of DF players also frequent Cracked.
