Inspired by a quote i saw (Congratulations you have been seiged by the infamous michael jackson, protect the children), i made the michael jackson childsnatcher mod. I made it a month before he died so i think now is probably a good time to release it.

This mod adds a race of magical race of babysnatching michael jacksons! Now your children can too be molested by the plasticated singer!

1.1:   Now can be undead, has two new attacks, can go into trances and now should be hostile.

[Duke 2.0]

 Too soon man, too soon.

 Like embarking on a sting ray infested beach with all seven dwarves named Steve Irwin after his death.

[warlordzephyr]

that is my next mod

[Duke 2.0]

 Whereas this is too soon, you're a bit too late for that one.

[warlordzephyr]

well i'll just have to kill some other famous person won't I?

Along with the [INTELLIGENT] tag, I don't think this race would be hostile to dwarves. As a result, I don't think they would snatch anything.

Also, I believe you need a trapavoid tag in there.

[AtomicPaperclip]

From a modding perspective, yeah it needs trapavoid.

From a personal perspective, I agree it is too soon.

Michael Jackson was a lost soul who wanted his childhood back, he didn't molest that kid he just wanted a friend.

That really shouldn't be what people think about when they hear his name =/

[DennyTom]

Too soon or not, pedophile or sad lonely person, I do not care - this is hilarious.

[Sensei]

I thought that WAS what people thought when they heard his name for the last few years- or maybe you weren't ten in the last five or six years.

Anyway, now that he's dead, I think it's too late and no-one really ought to give a fuck. I love (read: hate) how everyone suddenly cares about his every motive and action again now that he can no longer have any tangible effect on anyone.

[jester]

Let he who never told a michael jackson joke while he was alive cast the first stone.   

  And then the rest of us will judge you.

[Leafsnail]

It's kindof appropriate though, as children snatched in dwarf fortress grow up like members of the race who snatched them.

[warlordzephyr]

I don't want trap avoid, it makes it less hilarious when they attack. Also i have added the [EVIL] tag to the creature profile, won't that make them hostile?

WOOT! First download!

I don't see why you like "Snatchers! Protect the children!" followed instantly by a red M.

The [EVIL] only means they will be only in evil biomes. Which make it even harder to get visited by them.

You've also forgotten the all important possibility of a zombie Michael Jackson.

People give a fuck because of a little thing called respect for the dead. There is a limit, and making a mod glorifying the worst rumors of MJ so soon after his death crosses the line. Although as much as I don't like it, a zombie MJ gives me a chuckle.

[blah28722]

A zombie Michael Jackson, if made into a wandering creature like a Unicorn, should theoretically arrive with a small horde of undead animals, because [MAGICAL] current attracts animals to the creature.

Awesome idea:

Mod in:
Michael Jackson, basically a Unicorn that can appear as a zombie.
Zombie, which are modded animals, like deer, who travel in packs and congregate near [MAGICAL] creatures.

Make them aggressive and fairly strong.

Watch as fortress is destroyed by the evil of the Thriller.
