Urist McOrcishCommander of Old Agelessness
« on: August 04, 2011, 08:21:56 pm »

Has anyone ever seen anything like this before?

I was "T"raveling when I was suddenly ambushed by a group of orcs (probably because I just got done destroying one of their hamlets and looting their capital in the night), I attacked the commander immediately, missed, then he died of old age. Seriously. I doubt that even counts as a kill for me. Damn you Death! Stealing my FAME!

Goblin lifespans are indefinite for a reason.
Orcs should be the same way. Blame yourself!

I've been ambushed by a wolf that promptly died of old age, I gave him a burial.

Christ, are you dwarves or are you elves? If you think Hell has too many demons, then youkill them till the population reaches an acceptable number.
Dwarf Fortress: So horrifying the players would rather talk about nice things, like Warhammer 40k.

Speaking of Orcs and not living to see the next generation, I recently decided to have a talk with an orc( I play them frequently)
Recruit: So tell me about the area
Fishermen: When I was your age, a guy got his left testicle smashed by a dragon raptor
Recruit: May I buy you a beer?
