You need to make that legendary liar your broker. I can see it now.

Pointy-eared Hippy Why would I want this copper chest, encircled with bands of Carnelian and spikes of tin?
Urist McLiar No, my good friend, you are mistaken. This is a *gold chest*, encircled with masterfully-crafted bands of Star Ruby and menacing with well crafted spikes of Platinum.
PE H Well, in that case, here, take this mated pair of Giant Eagles, and a pair of Grizzly Bears just to be fair.
U McL (aside) Sucker!

My favorite near Legendary so far was the Master Liar I had show up.  He had no other skills.


I sat there for a few minutes contemplating just what that meant as far as how he got himself into the migrant group in the first place.  Of course he became a hauler, I couldn't trust him to do anything else.

"Alright, evileeyore, I'll haul those items!"

later

"Oh, those... yeah, I, um... yeah those didn't actually get moved"

Imagine how that must have looked like when he signed up to the migrant wave.

"So Urist, what are your skills?"
"Well, I am really good at lying..."
"Excellent just what the fortress needs, just sign here and get your gear ready, we'll depart in two days."

Somwhow that reminded me of the word "paradox"...

"So Urist, what are your skills?"
"Well, first off, I can't lie. At all. Instead I'm, umm, good at making cheese."
"Excellent, just what the fortress needs, just sign here and get your gear ready, we'll depart in two days."

He actually has no skills - he just lied about being a Legendary Liar.

I got a high master carpenter in an early migrant wave.
First fort that most of the furniture was wood. Masterworks everywhere!

Is there even a point to being a High Master Fish Cleaner?
If you have a legendary fisherdwarf then you bet your beard there is.

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

Would be nice to get them both in the same wave.

I got, in two waves:

Legendary Fisherdwarf
Legendary Bone Carver
Legendary Chef
High Master Clothier
High Master Fish Cleaner
High Master Chef

and two Fey Moods that gave me a Legendary Clothier and a Legendary Carpenter. :D

Forgotten Beasts seem to be akin to Toady playing Dwarven Roulette with your fortress, as they can be anything from harmless giant worms made of mud to necrotic-gas spewing nigh-invunerable iron hydras of doom.
