Back before DF2010 came out, I promised my sister that if she ever played Dwarf Fortress, I'd mod her game to allow her to play adventure mode as (her request) a magmaman with a rock guitar and a heart of gold.

So, questions:

Gold: Is it magma-safe? Can you make a heart out of it, and will it function? I have no experience with modding body parts / materials.

Rock guitar: I assume the rock in question would have to be bauxite, but it'd be nice if it actually displayed as "rock guitar". Would I have to mod in a new kind of rock named "rock" to accomplish this?

Magmaman: I'll obviously have to modify them into a custom race, to add the heart and maximum musicality. Are there any current major problems with playing as one in adventure mode?

Is it magma-safe?

No, but making it so just in the case of this one creature won't be an issue.

Can you make a heart out of it, and will it function?

Yes.

I assume the rock in question would have to be bauxite

There are plenty of magma-safe rocks now.

Would I have to mod in a new kind of rock named "rock" to accomplish this?

Most likely.

Are there any current major problems with playing as one in adventure mode?

None that I know of, besides constantly setting things on fire and such.

Also, how do you expect to find the guitar?

[Bloogonis]

remember you will need a Civ of these Magmamen with hearts of gold to adventure, but you can set the population of that civ to 0 to prevent spoilage of your world.

You don't even need to include the site tokens.

The weapon could be called "rock guitar" so you'd end up with "bauxite rock guitar" or whatever rock you make it out of.

Not if you made a custom rock material.

Indeed but I was just posting alternatives.

it shock me when I made rock statues of  all things. though

I want to make a mod that creates a tribal civilization of magmamen with hearts of gold and rock guitars. Most badass tribal civilization ever. Speaking of badass, maybe they'll make badass guitar picks for shields, and bitchin' music for armor, or something. Dunno. What should the music armor be called? Is badass good for the shields, or should they use a different adjective (or be something other than guitar picks)? Maybe they could be stabbing weapons instead. You stick it to the Man in the left eye with your badass guitar pick, tearing it apart! Maybe I'll give the heart of gold a special attack... or give them a body part called awesome rock music and give IT the special attack, something blunt... You play your awesome rock music at the Man's upper left arm, bruising the fat and shattering the bone! A tendon has been severed!

Anyway, I'll post the stuff you'll need for your magmaman (with a heart of gold and a rock guitar) later today, or possibly tomorrow, then get to work on adding the rest of the stuff and making the civ one of the tribal civs.

[Bloogonis]

you should make the Guitar a ranged weapon the shoots Killer Riffs for ammo!

[Jaxicat]

My brother never made me any magmamen.   

[Malaclypse]

DeKaFu:

I can make the magmaman have specific voice descriptors, or not have a descriptor for it, or make the descriptor be random. Do you (or your sister) have a preference? Here is a list of the possible descriptors:

deep-voiced
high-voiced
raspy-voiced
clear-voiced
has a deep, guttural voice
has a high-pitched, clear voice
has a high-pitched, grating voice
has a clear, deep voice
has a fairly deep and raspy voice
has a high squeaky voice
has a low, clear voice
has a high, clear voice
has a very clear voice
has a clear voice
has a grating, raspy voice
has a scratchy voice
has a very high-pitched voice
has a high voice
has a very deep voice
has a low voice

Also, I've made it so it will have its musicality ability maxed. I can also do this for imagination, creativity, and/or linguistic ability if you want (since those are somewhat related conceptually). Additionally, if you want, I can give it a natural skill level in speaking of legendary +5 (same reason). Let me know if you want me to do any of those. I've got pretty much everything else finished, except for the entity raw file, which I'm doing last.
