I'd have a hard time describing this in words, so simply:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Pictured: The adventurer in question

I thought it's a good idea to alt-jump into a river (Legendary swimmer and such) which was 2 z-levels below my adventurer, but she fell unconcious and when she woke up she was in this box.
There's dolomite literally all around her, no possiblity of getting out that I see without teleporting of some sort.
Oh, and the blood stain is from some limb I can't recall.

I have no idea how she's not suffocating about a month in there already, but here's a question to you all - can I get her out in some sort of ways that dosen't involve savescumming and Dwarf Companion (or such cheats)? 

[Haspen]

Led Tekkudishen, Legendary Wrestler, has pierced the earth!

Tried to use 'T'ravel mode?

And... it's something I never seen before. You mean, this 'box' is directly under river? Like, one z-level above there's rushing water?

[LordSlowpoke]

Trying to launch travel mode gave me the message "You can't travel because you're journeying underground"
And I can't reliably tell if it's directly under the river or not, yet I did a little math (where the river is supposed to be, where I am now) which said that I'm about two z-levels below the ground.

And speaking of piercing the earth, I actually think this might be a dwarven plot, knowing that trying to fight me will end up in instadeath, they dug out a box when I was unconcious they walled me in.
I might be just imagining things, since I was a travel-screen from the nearest dwarven civ which I didn't destroy, but still. The only plausible way I can think of.

[Biag]

Upload the save! I wanna check this out.

[Skorpion]

The spinning *dwarven wrestler* strikes the earth in the River!

It is pierced!

[Haspen]

Seconded!

That is completely mysterious.  Wow.  Stone caving in around you is the only thing I can think of regarding that.  I think an important distinction is that you're not "in a box" of stone.  Your adventurer seems to be sharing the same square with a stone wall what with the "stuck" description.  I think this would be a similar set of circumstances as to being encased in magma while the temperature setting is turned off.  Is your adventurer suffocating?  Do you have "no breath" on the creature type?  Do you have mods installed?  Have you made any changes in the raws?

[Doomshifter]

As far as I recall, only water (and magma without the temperature on) should drown anyone. So, technically, I don't see any reason for this adventurer to be not breathing (in game terms, of course).

But, I seriously wonder just... HOW? Maybe you're carrying so much stuff that you just become some sort of living pick-axe?

[Hummingbird]

stuck to a wall

Bizarre. I've never even heard of this description.

[Kagus]

Wow...   You actually appear to be inside the rock.  I think this is even cooler than simply having a weird worldgen anomaly that cause a tiny box to appear belowground that you just fell into.

Heh...   Try looking up a few levels.  If you are underneath the river, you should be able to see the ghost image of the surrounding area from when you were up above.  That should give you an idea as to where you are in relation to everything else.

Now this is just plain neat...   I wonder if the game somehow "forgot" to recognize when you hit the ground, so you kept falling until it picked up the slack and stopped you, smack dab in the middle of nothing.


Oh, yeah...  When you're looking up to find the river, make a note of how many levels underground you are.  If it's about 15-16+, make special note of it.  It might be possible that you hit the bottom of the world before stopping.

I can't seem to locate the *exact* adventurer save yet. But answering a few people:
@bamorrow: I have vanilla 40d with the carp raw modified to add the thermonuclear carpsplosion. I had enough of them pulling my dabbling swimmers into murky pools, so it had to die.
@Doomshifter: All I had was my clothing, about 50 units of meat and 20 units of stacked booze. Hell, I wasn't even encumbered properly.
@Kagus: I'm 15 z-levels away from the sky's limit. Also, I can't really see anything, all calculations I made, etc. etc. were a stack of "implying implying implying implying implying". Does this mean that she was moved with the current when she was asleep? And then broke the time-space fabric? Because damn, it's awesome to break it when you're awake, but it's the pinnacle of awesomeness to break it accidentally when you're unconcious. And stunned. At the same time.

I'm gonna upload the save when I find it.

[Omegastick]

After you get bored you should let yourslef die and make a fortress on top of his position, then dig for him. I can imagine the dwarves faces when they find him.

[Haspen]

After you get bored you should let yourslef die retire here and make a fortress on top of his position, then dig for him. I can imagine the dwarves faces when they find him.

Urist McSupervisor: Urist, dig faster, we need more dolomite!
Urist McMiner: Yeah, sure...
*dig dig dig*
Urist McMiner: Hey, there's a hole the-
Led Tekkudishen: Hiya!

Urist McMiner has died from heart attack.

Now imagine Led as a disgruntled old woman that hasn't seen light for years.

With a set of huge biceps and perfect abs.
