If you were a DF dwarf...
« on: July 12, 2011, 02:39:22 am »

What kind of dwarf would you be?

I would be a quiet, secluded mechanic focused solely on his next engineering project, however I also have an extremely dark side as the only thing I ever really think about is how to kill/torture my enemies in an ever elaborate fashion.

I'll give the same answer as to the "What would your profession in a DF fortress be" thread (which spurned a community fort).

A butcher.

I would be the one that runs as fast as he can from the fortress first chance he gets, in order to avoid any encounters with Fun.

Or maybe there's a god who's just completely insane and sends you to Detroit, Michigan in a new body if you ever utter the name "Pat Sajak".

.... I'd be a Philosopher.

Wait, am I broken now?

Crap

I'd be a dwarf with carpentry and hauling labors enabled. Not the one who sits in the workshop all day churning shit out, just the one who builds scaffolding or a wood wall or whatever when it's needed, and mostly spends time hauling ores down to the forge and furniture to the stockpiles.

I'd be a dwarf with a job and name like cheesemaker who ends up in the Army.

I'm a computer science student in real life.

Does that equate to the dwarf who pulls levers and sees what happens?

I would be the bookkeeper dwarf, if only for the peace this necessary job affords me, and the assurance that I may be one of the few survivors of the fortress in the event of a catastrophe. As an aside, little chance would exist for me to become popular enough for one of the less experienced engravers to memorialize me in the dining room with that obligatory slice of cheese...
