Just got this artifact:

A Dolomite Ring, Dibeshitnet, "Whimtruss the Crazy Uncertainty"

I suppose uncertainty is crazy. Also the Dwarven name is a bit funny.

Every dwarf, every dwarven man, women, and child, that comes to our forts will die there; it's truly sad when you think about it. And we ask our selves, why? Why do we push forward, knowing this fate, that we are destined for failure? Because, this game grasps the concept of mortality. Some games you can never lose, but we all stop eventually, causing a 'death' to those game's 'worlds'. Dwarf Fortress gives us a definite end, knowing that we will leave that world eventually, and move on to more.

Best worst artifact:

Arakoler, "Shaftdwindling", a dingo leather thong

It has a picture of a dingo 'laboring'... I don't know about you, but I think the name fits.  Maybe I can gift this to a deserving elf.   :P

Edit:
"Sharkboot" is the name of the fort responsible for that.

Artifact sword called the Sacrifice of Beards (so sad!)

My last fortress was Goldensteamy, inhabited by the dwarves from The Paddle of Fondling (forgot to check the names before embarking)

Fatgifted, the Creepy Woman - a raw adamantine ring.
I ended up with several engravings to this thing around the fortress with SHOCKINGLY well thought out fat jokes... I wish wish wish I still had that save file. I just remember one engraving being called "The Famine of Worlds"

and wow look what i just found in legends

The Emancipated Sack of Elders.

It has become my new go to name - not using random names anymore!

Here's a tip, though... Use Russian characters in your WPA5 passphrase. If your spontaneous AI is anything like my spontaneous AI (not as aggressive as yours, good conversation, but actually worse than me at chess*), it can't handle any character outside of the CODEPAGE 437 list.

*I hope. It could just be lulling me into a false sense of security.

One of my dwarves was named "Goldenwaters". I threw him to the front lines of the circus. He shall not be missed.

if it's a blob made of steel, don't fight it. it may not heal, but it probably doesn't need to.

I don't do random names anymore either, I use the filter to find something that rhymes and is good enough for a daily chuckle.

Right now my fortress is Packwrack the Black Snack-Attack, and the group name is the Cackling Jackals of Jacking.

Amusing, no?

(Giving this Masterwork thing a whirl... I think this vocabulary is not available in vanilla. I could be wrong.)
