Oh god, most fortunate thread stumble-upon ever! All my forts now will have a sanctuary with the image of Tholtig.

Engraved on the wall is a masterful burningpet rendition of Tholtig Cryptbrain the Waning Diamond. Tholtig Cryptbrain the Waning Diamond is glowering. This relates to the One Hundred And Eighty Fifth glowering in Circletower.

how did I miss this thread for so long?

EPIC !

[darkflagrance]

I just found this, and thought it was cool.

It's a Circletower discovered by someone who used Embark Anywhere on Tholtig's ruined mountainhome.

The rooms are bare and empty now that everything inside them has been stolen or fallen to pieces, but you can still see the empty great hall where the Queen and her clan once sat and sang over mugs of Dwarven Ale.

That picture always gives me the chills and tears of awesome at the same time.

Hate to point it out to you, but she has no beard!

Technically, no dwarf had beards in 40d, because they weren't simulated yet...though the default for modern female dwarves is to go clean-shaven.

Out of curiosity, what - exactly - does it mean when Legends mode says something was smashed? I was hopping through the legends mode for some of the heroes and their foes, and I noticed it would occasionally say something was "smashed." It seemed self-explanatory, the smashing equivalent of being lopped off, but I noticed that, for example, with Idala, the killer of Tosid, that her lower body was "smashed" by Tholtig, although Idala would not die until some years later in a fight with Logem. In 40d, wasn't a lower torso smashing instantly fatal?

I believe that it means that a blunt weapon (eg: warhammer) was used to inflict heavy damage on the body part, not killing the victim.
