I'm pretty sure nobles can't be arrested.

Alternately: The Brick Testament. It's a really fun look at what the bible would look like if interpreted literally. With Legos.
Just so I remember

To make it even funnier... the Dungeon Master was helping her fill the Swimming Pool, when he suddenly snapped (no Tomb, poor Room) and threw a tantrum. Fortunately, instead of punching her out, he ran out into the corridor and broke both the legs of a passing tame Horse.
"Both" legs of a horse?

That would be as deadly to the wielder as to anyone else!  You'd sever your own arm at the first swing!  It's perfect!

Cool... maybe I should just let him continue throwing wobblers. Just for FUN.

You've never seen a two-legged Horse before? How long have you been playing DF?

 :P To be honest, it was "two legs of a four-legged Horse".

Update : The Dungeon Master threw another wobbler... and this time he ran down the corridor, up a level, into the Dining Hall / Meeting Area, located that SAME poor bloody Horse... and killed it. His personality screen says that he "took joy in slaughter recently", and the Horse is indeed listed in his kills... it's his only logged kill, in fact.

One rather worrying point has come up: It's the fourth year of my Fort, and this time the Dwarven Liason didn't show up when the Caravan did. It's the first time that he's missed a visit. Could something nasty have happened to him? I've got Cougars and Wolves, so maybe something ate him?...

Nope. You got the Queen, which means you're the Mountainhome now, which means no Liason. Ever again.

My Dungeon Master's throwing skill is developing well, with all these tantrums. I wonder how many aggro's it takes to reach Legendary?

Which puts me in mind of a question: Nobles are immune to arrest, yes? Does that apply only to 'hereditary' Nobles (such as Queen and Dungeon Master), or does it also apply to elected positions (Mayor) and appointed positions (Manager, Bookkeeper)?

In my experience any noble who cannot be assigned tasks is above the law.
They aren't above flaming berserk giant cave spiders, though.
