I don't recall what his original name was, because he would always be Urist McKenzie to me. From the moment he arrived, Urist began to party. At the dining hall, at the zoo, at the statue garden; there was nowhere this gold-bearded dwarven party god did not baptize with boogie. I am fairly certain he never did a single bit of work, but then it was clear that partying was his profession. Everyone at the fort was his friend and his social skills were legendary. He adopted a stray gorilla and brought it with him everywhere and wore a HFS sock on his right hand, because that was how Urist rolled - in style. So prestigious were Urist McKenzie's partying skills that even when a goblin siege was pushing through the halls and wiping out every dwarf they came across, Urist McKenzie found the courage to throw another party in the civilian evacuation area. He died with booze in his hands and dwarf babes at his side.
Ladies, gentlemen, I should like to propose a new challenge game to you all in honor this great dwarven hero. It shall be known as The Original Party Dwarf Challenge. The challenge is simple enough. You pick one dwarf of your starting seven to be Urist McKenzie and ramp up his social skills and nothing else. Upon embarking, you must switch off all labors of Urist. He should never, at any point, perform a single task that does not involve four things: eating, drinking, sleeping, and PARTYING!
The entire fortress must be centered around ensuring that Urist has as many happening places to party as possible, with enough good booze and good food to keep him going all year round. You must never stop a party that Urist throws or attends, no matter how disruptive it becomes. Additionally, whenever Urist throws a party in a location, you must attempt to rebuild it as a newer, better, bigger incarnation of it for him to party in next time, representing how anywhere the original party dwarf gets his grove on becomes twice as awesome as he was before. You may put up no statues that are no Urist. Anyone at the fortress who does not like Urist is clearly a drag beyond redemption and must be put to death.
For an added bonus, Urist McKenzie may also have a pair of officially designated Floozies, members of the opposite gender who also do no work. Triple points if you can somehow make these an elf and a human, as Urist unites all peoples in party.
