Magma, left pig tail sock, blood, vomit.


The death of a fortress, summed up in four little symbols.
Erm, that's a bloody wall.

Yeah, wasn't sure how to just represent blood, so went with bloody wall since they get coated the best.

There are many ways to represent blood, you did the blood wall one, there is blood smearings, puddle of blood and finally the pool of blood.

The smearing is dark red, and s the same tile as the ground it is on ( so a blood smeared road it'd still be a dark red + ) , the puddle of blood is a dark red ~ , and the pool of blood is a dark red ≈ .

Bloody engravings are highlighted dark red ( or red ) , natural and smoothed walls are highlighted also, so are built walls, but non-smooth naturals walls with blood are red/dark red.

Dwarven hieroglyphics. Great.

This is a left pig tail sock. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with vomit, blood, and vomit. On the item is an image of magma. On the item is an image of a left pig tail sock. On the item is an image of vomit. On the item is an image of dwarves and magma. The dwarf is burning. The dwarf is laughing. The dwarf is burning. The dwarf is making a plaintive gesture. On the item is an image of vomit.

...Engraved on the wall is a masterfully designed image of Pukestep the left pig tail sock by Urist McRecursive...

I'm not sure I'd call Armok an opiate.  It's not that kind of religion, after all.

Opium is the opium of the masses.  Marx just underestimated the capacity for pharmacological price-lowering inherent in capitalistic industrialism.

Since dwarves already eat and drink for free, I didn't think those are on quite the same level.

As for 'safety,' I'm not sure they'd know what to do with it if they had it.  The Comité de Salut Public probably wouldn't work out quite the same way.  Not that it couldn't happen or it'd be better, just different.

The dwarf flag should have that which all dwarves would gladly lay down their lives to acquire:

‼Pig Tail Sock‼

Check in-game again. You'll notice barrels are just Division symbols with a brownish background.

Guess what this is.

I hereby request the schematics for your dwarven radio telescope, and also the proper Dwarven translation of Arecibo.

Also, you win an internet.

Evidently, Dorf Philosopher Uristmedes only figured out the Uristmedes screw. And he ran around naked and covered in water, blood, and vomit all the time, so any discoveries made in his 4/7 bathtub went unnoticed by dorf science.
