Legend tells of a fort besieged by a dragon. When 79 brave recruits fell to its breath, the last dwarf of the fort took up arms. He sprung from his sickbed and claimed an adamant one sword before he bulrushes the dragon. A clean swipe severs the head. But the dragon claws him in the lower body and burns him alive. As he melts into a pile of booze and fat, I rename him Ronnie James Dio and change his profession to dragonslayer. He will forever be immortalized and worshipped as a dragonslayer God.

This is what the RNG graced me with just this evening:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My dwarves struck the earth hard for Magicmirrors.  Unfortunately, it was in a completely terrifying biome, which meant they mainly struck it with their corpses and bits thereof until they rose to walk in unholy might.  We lasted for several days first, though!

Hidden beneath rusting weapons was a mass of assorted bones. An elf, a goblin, even an ogre. All just waiting for someone to walk by and notice them, like some kind of land mine of horror.

I embarked in an evil glacier once, back in 40d. The name that was given to my fortress was... "Bunnyflowers."
Obviously, I had to keep it.

One of my military dwarfs just earned the name 'Merged Finder of Gravel'.

What a waste! I've had awesome ones before, like 'Scoured Dead-Power of Murdering' and 'Persuasive Threat of Fears' and now I get a guy who finds gravel?

There's safe. Then there's unsafe. And then there's the average dwarf fort, which remains unrated because the OSHA inspector flatly refused to go anywhere within a dozen miles of the place.

I found a Forgotten Beast in Legends Mode called Sir.  A big feathered slug that shoots webs.

Like a Sir.

I had a squad named the Inky Outrage. They died in battle against a giant blob of vomit.

I have no clue what I am doing here.


I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

"Eatcave the Dipped Mines"
Hamlet "Squashspread"
"Silklocks", a tomb that was insanely often invaded by gold-seeking adventurers of mine just for irony of LOCKS made of SILK
"Whiplash" - I'm not sure, but isn't "lash" the same item as "whip", just under other name?
"Pumpkinidol"
"The Sacrificial Mountain"
"The Hills of Yawning"
"The Certain Hills" dafuq
"The Latonic Hugs"

Have you had an accident or injury that wasn't your fault? Would you like to seek compensation?

Not funny, but awesome. There's a civ in my game called "The Grapes of Wrath". LEAD BY A MAN CALLED  STONEBASIN. This was so unbelievably cool.

So to recap, one minute everything was going just great, and the next we have caverns collapsing, firebreathing cave beasts, underground brush fires, a screaming swarm of poltergheists back for revenge, zombies in the corridors, drunken brawls in the dining halls, magma pouring into the caverns, rotting miasma everywhere, insanity, madness, and a flying crocodile heading right towards us!
