They were all wiped out (along with the centaurs) by Urist McAdventurer between the years -19 and -1. They dominate the world pre-worldgen, and prevent expansion of civilized society before then. All the peoples of the world agree to roll their calendars over to commemorate Urist McAdventurer, who died of an infected toenail from the battle with the last griffon in year 0.

Baffler likes silver, walnut trees, the color green, tanzanite, and dogs for their loyalty. When possible he prefers to consume beef, iced tea, and cornbread. He absolutely detests ticks.

The best way to demonstrate it to him is take a save of 40 year old fortress with 150 dwarves in it on a good sized embark with a volcano that just breached the circus and install it on his gaming rig and watch it bring his rig to its knees.

You won't believe how simple that is... just go to a site, press k, shout, and claim the site for yourself. You will get to name your new civ, and become the lord of it. If you want, you can kill the previous lord/lady and maybe the lawgiver. *UHUM* DECAPITATE *UHUM*
