Or "Anyone who gets near this starts enjoys slaughter"

Considering dwarves, this would be a very redundant curse...

Indeed. It's the curse of the dwarves!

Wait, some people sell that stuff to other races... this will be the conspiracy to turn all other races to dwarven culture through 'harmless' trade!

On a related note...

Does this mean that DF will eventually have magic?

Yes, Toady has said this in a DF talk or two.

[rhesusmacabre]

possibly a way of making individual body parts be cursed so someones own arm is strangling them as only the arm has been cursed

I wonder if someone who isn't killed, but loses a limb, whether this may actually happen. Those combat reports are going to be confusing.

WE NEED MORE MAGMA NOW! OR BEAVERS!

I can't wait to kill a single puppy, put its corpse into a one tile pit, then start pitting goblin prisoners in there. It'll take a while, but they will slowly die off and create ever more zombies and skeletons that will speed up the process until I get bored and release the undead hordes into the fort world.

Now that's a siege weapon!

I'm looking forward to cursed plump helmets. They'll turn anybody who eats them into plump helmet men.

Is toady really going to add that?

That's just plain dumb.

[Shootandrun]

I doubt Toady will add cursed plump helmets, but we could probably mod them in.

[caknuck]

I plan to mod in a curse that makes dwarves excrete filth when they eat.

fill a moat up with undead limbs so anyone who falls in is ripped apart?

HELL YEAH!

*wenda the goblin dodges*
*goblin hand charges at wenda!*
*the goblin hand hits wenda in the lower body, tearing the skin, tearing the muscle and tearing the guts!*
*the goblin hand collides with wenda!*
*wenda vomits*
*goblin vomit is raised by a curse!*
*goblin vomit charges at wenda!*
*goblin vomit hits wenda in the head, atearing the skin, tearing the muscle and jamming the skull through the brain!*
*wenda is raised by a curse!*[/
self repliating goblin undead moat-army. FUN!

Bonus points if you have a -stone door- that leads to the outside world that's forbidden.

Trolls will kill their masters

Dwarf Fortress: Where zombies are actually desirable and can be weaponized.


Regarding curses... we need a curse that causes elves humans to become dwarves. Then find a way to make it work in the real world.

The magma man hanging around my addy tube assures me that nothing supernatural is planned 

Hmm... That makes me think of a terrifying idea... What if you get one of those forgotten beast diplomats, but its a flame beast? He would hunt down your mayor and talk to him while melting his face off! Setting ablaze your entire fort in the process!

[Icee77]

Tireless Zombie Dwarves.......awesome......
And Werewolf and Vampire Dwarves too!
Urist McVampire: I've come to suck your magma!

'whats wrong with you urist mcmayor?'
'MY FACE IS FUCKING MELTING YOU MORON!'
'oops, sorry.'
'GAHH! FUCK! THE FORT'S ON FIRE!'

you get the picture.

Then the mayor and some other dorfs die from the fire and masterwork items are destroyed. Congratulations! Tatrum Spiral.
