Not unless you figure out how half of the time-based powers work.

Also spawning stands is something not well supported by DF engine, so I'd wager a guess that the answer is "no".
I think Elf Collaborator made a Persona mod a long time, so there might be something usable from that.

As far as scents go, I don't mind fairly subtle things (Coconut is amazing, I've found) and a handful of stronger scents (I have a coffee scented candle that I absolutely love), but a lot of them will make me extremely sick. Axe in particular has caused me to vomit before.

I overheard some of the contractors who are doing renovation work around campus talking. Sounds like college is neglecting to pay them.

I think I might be the only person in the world who thinks that a person smelling of wood smoke is not a bad thing. Seriously wood smoke is a great smell, why would a person think it was bad?

It's one of my favorite scents. Right up there with pine sap, grilled meat, and that clean and sharp smell in the air just after it rains (which is apparently called petrichor.)

I think the reason deodorant's so strong is it needs to cover up the smell of BO, and BO does a very good job of managing to sneak under the smell of deodorants, so you need something strong to block it all out.
This is only true if you don't bathe. I've known people who use completely unscented deodorant that was basically an antiperspirant and that was it, and they never smelled, much less strongly.


Perfume and cologne are very situational things; out of all the people I've known, only one girl ever managed to use artificial scents in a way which was routinely (as opposed to once-in-a-blue-moon) attractive and tasteful. The spray-on deodorants might as well have been invented by a woman as a way to identify douchebags. The main problem, somewhat ironically, is that most people (and a lot of popular scents) are overpoweringly strong.

That, and people-smell isn't actually bad. Sweaty-workout smell, yes, in almost all cases, though. And "hasn't bathed in a week", ew. But just the smell of a person who bathes daily and isn't sweating much/any isn't unpleasant in the vast majority of cases. As mentioned, natural scents are also often nice; real wood smoke, pine, and other non-industrial smells are good.

I like the smell of some girly perfumes. Even a small amount makes me pleasantly dizzy and light-headed, though I think that part is just me. Other deodorants... eh. I'm indifferent.

One thing I don't understand is that I really like the smell of this really corrosive chemical we use to clean the grill at work. It's disgusting and probably carcinogenic, but I still really like it.

Wet earth after a long period of time without rain smells horrible when cows are involved.

On the other hand if you are in, say, a pine forest it can smell wonderful. :P (Though personally I'm a bigger fan of the smell of moisture right before it rains, rather than right afterwards).

I like the smell of wood smoke as long as the wind isn't blowing it straight into my face so I can't breathe.

Long hours put in on a farm as a kid have acclimated me to that smell, so every time i drive past one of the numerous farms in south georgia I get nostalgic rather than disgusted.

There's about five colognes I'd buy:

Dirt, wood-smoke, pine sap, old books, and petrichor :v

Otherwise I'm not really a fan.

Petrichor basically means Rockblood. That is my equal parts WTF and happy. I now have yet another potential band name (for some reason I'm noticing these a lot lately).

I don't remember what the hell I was dreaming about, but I just woke up at quarter to seven feeling really agitated. Wasn't even busting to use the toilet. I'm thinking maybe it was something to do with all the crazy wind outside.



Edit: oh, also, my mother's visiting.
