Alright, I made a dwarven boxer, with Talented striking, Proficient dodgin and adequate swimming.  His name was Punchbeard.  He went on two successful bandit eradication quests, was killed on the third one.  And I guess that's it.

Gonna run this now. I'll post my progress.

Name is Bini Secretiverained. Competent Wrestler, Novice striker, and Adequate Dodger. I'm gonna train up on some wildlife, and once I'm at proficient in most of my skills I'll ship out.

I heard about a giant bat in the Obscure Rsponsible-Forests. :P I'll post the combat log if I survive.

Welp, I died pretty fast.

You see, here's how I think this works:
Overseer: Welcome to the military! You need to wear socks! Dorf: Oh, I should get military socks. My socks are civilian socks. Dorf discards socks Dorf: You know, I need a whole lot of gear now. I should get socks... last. Oh, but these steel boots with the white goo on them are nice!

I might try this. What's an easy way to find animals, though? Just wander randomly?

Smashed apart two wolf packs and a cougar so far, mostly by OHKOing them with a kick to the head. I look forwards to this dwarf's life with interest.

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.

You state that all combat must be hand to hand, but at least one achievement involves throwing stuff ("Barbarian:Archer Revenge: Have an arrow stuck in you, and that arrow tossed back at the same archer."). Is throwing allowed during normal combat? If not, are you even allowed to throw items for the sole purpose of improving your stats?

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

If it's -Cat Leather Armor- then yes. anything like chicken leather hood or just clothes in general are not armor
