A Dwarf makes a red entrance! (picture fixed)
« on: July 23, 2010, 11:02:58 am »
I posted this in another thread, but I think it deserves its own. The Dwarf showed up in the same way a Forgotten Beast would. Game pauses, fallowed by a warning box. This has happened twice. It was a few versions ago, and I no longer have the save. So what do you think about this rad red entrence?
CORRECT PICTURE

The learning curve of the df forums should be equal to that of df itself.

He wasn't a migrant, trader, ambusher, ect, ect. He just casually wondered onto the map, and eventually off.

That's pretty hilarious.  Any chance it was a migrant demon/beast from another civ that started behaving like a human/dwarf?  I assume those usually do this by becoming a ruler and taking the civ over, right?

No, I remember it specifically only having dwarvern body parts, and the description would say "An x twisted into a Dwarvern shape!" or something.

Does he listen to you and do stuff? He might be a lone survivor from a destroyed city or somesuch.

Nope. He wandered around, and a few years later.

Since the game can generate Forgotten Beasts based on any existing creature, it seems plausible for it to have generated a Forgotten Beast based on a dwarf.

Still pretty awesome :)

It came from above ground. Forgotten Beasts live down under (in Australia). The pop at the time was 20, and we barely had any money worth of stuff, so its not a titan.  Even then, it would have deadly stares or spit or salad making finger if it was a FB. AND IT WAS FRIENDLY! AND WHY WOULD IT BE A FARMER! MOST SCARY FUCKING FORGOTTEN BEAST EVER!BEWARE ITS DEADLY SEEDS

Titan, then.  Appears above-ground, no special attacks, and initially shows up as "visitor".
