In fact, they love life. It is a toxic love, though...

Because "whip" is goblin for "lightsaber".

Because questions deserve logical, satisfying answers; dwarves are not logical.

Why is dwarven !!science!! more logical and progressive than dwarven technology?

Because !!science!! is intrinsic to the universe. Technology must be created. And Who ever finds enough uses for an engineer to make them good enough to pioneer new tech?

And why aren't my hospital staff (who aren't currently assigned to any task) fixing up my stream of injured dwarves, despite their fully equipped hospital?

Lawsuits in dwarven court are excuses to hand out hammerings, to both parties.  Scary.

Why do dwarves even bother to make fortresses rathar than pillage another race's?

It's a beautiful shade of green, don't you think? Looks just like olivine!

Why zombies so hard to kill? They're ROTTING! Usually.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

I'm not your average Bay12er. I care about my drunken midgets.

They need magic weaponry that doesn't exist to be killed.


Why do my warriors always duel-wield weapons and or hold a weapon and shield in the same hand?

They're not.
They think in a VERY different way than humans.

Why do humans not take a side in Dwarf versus Elf conflicts?

Forbidden by the treaty of -'03, just a bit before each world's creation.

Why doesn't forbidding empty cage traps make the dwarves hauling cages realize they should stop trying to load said forbidden traps?

For every trouble under the sun, there is an answer, or there is none.
If there is one, then seek until you find it.
If there is none, then never ever mind it.

Cause the "forbidden" signs are attached to the cage traps in question, and the dwarves only come to read it when they are right there where they shouldnt be.

Why do DF volcanoes never errupt?

My son, many speak of the honor in war.
My preferred method is to wait until their back is turned, then impale them with a pike held by someone else.
Preferrably from a distance.

Dwarves are always tapping magma sources, reducing pressure.

Why are some creatures by default arena restricted?
