If you let elves that stupid survive, you deserve to be spit at by an elf.

Elves who don't spit each other off cliffs and attack your fort because loltrees are cool.

Visited a forest retreat and found a couple of Elves that didn't like each other.
One of them spit at the other, and this happened..

Just cheaply modded a gorilla civ to play as on adventure mode and had a laugh at his starting equipment:



I gave them the masks, robes and sandals, but I wasn't aware they've apparently got four feet and zero hands :|

It should also be noted that a bonobo is a type of chimpanzee. No love lost among the apes, I see.

After becoming the lady of a town via killing the former rules I decided to go to the neighboring hamlets and demand tribute (even though I've yet to discover what or if it even does anything) 2 of the people in charge of there hamlets agreed to my demands but the third refused to bow to me, so I cut his foot off, he agreed this time.

After going to a fourth hamlet and attacking the populace I got into a nasty fight with a spearman, after knocking me out in 2 hits and permanently making my lungs to cease functioning he passed out from exhaustion and was able to kill him and escape.

sadly after getting back to town I got in a fight with goblin and was defeated easily due to my injuries.

My marksdwarf began quite well.  During his first conversation in a mead hall, he was directed to a forest titan who lived nearby. Curious to see this monster, he recruited a spearman and a macewoman.

They carefully approached the shrine at night, hiding behind trees. Sneaking, my marksdwarf took aim and shot the titan down in one very lucky shot after several wild misses. The shrine had nothing for a dwarf to wear, so they left quickly. Returning to town at daybreak, the successful band parted ways.

My marksdwarf began to roam a bit too far without keeping track of time and had to take shelter in a hillock. There he awoke in the middle of the night and fought a bogeyman. Proficient with a steel short sword, my marksdwarf missed every swing before having his own skull driven into his brain by a well aimed superman punch from this bogeyman. It was all very clean.

Moved with my companions into a titan shrine, as usual all my companions ran away in terror (i hoped they would be more brave in this version, but obviously no) So i sneaked all alone and made the 1st strike, from the gamelog.txt :

Fights can be very strange in DF, people can destroy each other body and internals for hundred of turns without anyone dying and only a strangling will actually kill.

Decided to check out an abandoned fortress which is occupied by a forgotten beast, I fully expected the possibility of it having some horrible syndrome. However, when I later found it in one of the bedrooms, for a second I thought it said steel and was ready to bolt when I took a second look.

It was a humanoid with wings, made of steam, no special abilities whatsoever (other than MAYBE being a horrible dancer). :/ Pathetically easy to kill. I wonder how the heck a steam FB managed to make dwarves vacate a fortress? If it had some nasty syndrome attached to it, I could see it being plausible, but a lame no-ability FB? pfft.

Edit: I wonder if I would have killed it by just spitting at it...... Going to go back to the save and try. Edit2: Nope.

I should have decapitated her. If I retire, will my adventurer remain the king? Maybe I could hunt down every king and queen, putting my duel-wielding, warrior adventurers in top position.

Could I place my adventurer in a retired fort, retire that adventurer, and unretired the fort and use him as a dwarf?

Fixed the image. Edit: Ah, nevermind. Didn't notice that you already fixed it.

Are you in the Home Tree? I don't think I've ever seen anyone important in a Home Tree before. They are always in some random tree house instead.

If you retire, you might remain the king. I'm not entirely sure if you would keep the title if you were to join a different civilization though.

If you are a dwarf and you unretire the fort, then you may be able to use them, but if he is not a dwarf, then he will act like a pet who needs to eat and drink. Assuming he doesn't bug out in any way. It's been reported that inhabitants of unretired or reclaimed forts act a bit oddly, and are sometimes even marked as hostile when they are not.

Dammit... Ohwell. He's a human. Can you rule multiple places at once? I'd love to rule every single country in this world.

I've owned multiple places at once before, but from different groups. Now, I'm The Lord of multiple entities (not civs, but their subgroups), and the resulting political turmoil should be pretty funny.
