So we've all slaughtered the occasional noble or sent dwarves to theirs inevitable fiery deaths but how about shedding some light on something decent you did for your dwarves.

My best is family tombs for every one of my dwarven families.

[ein]

I gave my dwarves a season off.
Not that it matters, they wouldn't stop partying in my legendary dining room with one table anyway.

[Duke 2.0]

 I never send a miner to his doom tapping a magma pipe. I always rig it so the miner is never in danger.

 I make sure that broken-spine bedridden dwarf will survive, because he has a wife and children.

[Eater of Vermin]

I build anti-Hammerer devices.  For the good of the fort.

I had one dwarf crippled due to my bad planning. He was lying there in a bed, unconscious all the time. He didn't have any relatives or even friends. And still he was keeped well fed and cared of.

Did I do it because I felt sorry? NO!!! Because he was sentenced to beatings, and nooone would beat him, while he is crippled! I LOVED him for his ability to piss off the tax collector!

Every dwarf gets a 2x3 smoothed bedroom, exceptional obsidian door, cabinet, coffer, and exceptional bed.

I have my engravers build up their engraving skill by smoothing and engraving all the housing. It's a win-win situation; they get to ledgendary engraving really quick, and my dwarfs are deleriously happy from their awesome rooms.

[Antioch]

my dwarfs all have a royal tomb.


and they need them.

[Kel the Oblivious]

I allow smart, reasonable nobles to exist. So long as I can make the random items they demand "Urist McDuke mandates the construction of 4 greaves" Ok, cool, that is a reasonable sounding one. He wants his soldiers to have heavier armor. Demands craft goods is ok too.

I allow the Hammerer to live, but I ensure I find some way to get him/her wounded, and hopefully crippled. So long as he has a severed spine, and gets fed and watered, Mountainhome won't send a new one.

One engineering feat I love to under take is the internal heating system for any forts set in cold areas. Put magma underneath all my rooms, and around the walls. It really should be modded that dwarves get happy thoughts for climate and warmth.

[Skorpion]

I build a curtain wall to stop my dwarves getting goblined.

I make sure there's a nice variety of high-quality food available and cooked.

[Teferi]

well I killed the potash maker cause he adopted a cat I wanted to butcher then I killed the hammerer cause he's the hammerer, and then I killed the Tax collector cause I just felt like it.

Edit: oh decent things, well I make a large public dining rooms and tomb for them but that's basically it

[Greiger]

I give every melee military resident a tile of precious metal flooring in their tomb per notable kill.  And rig the tomb up with a magma flooding mechanism so that the tomb may never be robbed.

During the lever pulling ceremony of a particularly heroic dwarf I had all members of the military stand in formation above the tomb in the observation area as an honor guard until the room filled with magma.

[Argonnek]

I never assign a barracks for nonmilitary dwarves, everyone gets a room

[Byakugan01]

"Lever-pulling ceremony"? Was that tomb in the process of being robbed?

For me, it would have to be giving each dwarf an two-person booth in my grand resturant (a varaint of the dining hall I decided to give a go-still WIP)-master piece and exceptional enrgaving, and when I get back to that fort i will complete the picture by making gem windows out of diamonds, garnets and opals for the booths. Also, engraving the catacombs for the regular dwarves with my two legendary engravers in the same fort.

[Limul Thak]

"Rare"? Compared to the status quo around here, I'm always decent... I always give the peons good rooms and eats, and good booze and water, and protection via a military and NOT traps (but, honestly? Traps are for elves! Fighting is for DWARVES!)... I'm like a crazy cat lady, but for dwarves...
