So. Whatever killed one killed all the rest. This means they had one feature THEY all shared, but nobody else did. Were other members equipped with iron spears too?

Onul came to watch the sparring of Udil. Today he arranged a one-by-two set of speardwarwes.
Lokum Smithhatchets and Sodel Firehall were triyng to stab him with their iron spears, but he easily blocked their attempts with his Stabbasement the Shores of Flooding, the bronze spear.
- Come on, guys, try harder! Even if we had ninth recruit with spear, I'd easily overcome your all! - laughed Udil while hacking his opponents under knees with his spear's shaft.

Right. Is there any piece of equipment they all wore? Did they all frequent an area the others did not, like bedrooms or a separate barracks?



Edit: Stroke of genius!: Can vermin kill or cause diseases?

OOC: They were training where others did and slept in their personal bedrooms. According to wiki, vanilla vermins can cause only minor deseases, such as dizziness and stun

Udil and Onul studied the records of equipment changes for several hours.
- So, the only thing they all wore was that no-quality iron spear that we got from traders. Where is that thing now?
- I guess, inside one of that bins... You mean, we have to check it there?

Did we ask if weapons are contaminated yet? Or only armour? If so, is there anything on the spear which can cause a syndrome? Blood, for example? Or some sort of extract, secretion?

OOC: Finally!

After turning everything in stockpile hall upside down, Onul and Udil have found that (iron spear).
- Look! What's on it?
- Some gray slimy substantion... - said Onul, avoiding to touch it. He put it to his nose and smelt... - Smells as a sulfur! Udil, come here... - Onul suddenly tore a hair out of his beard - Thanks!
He touched that slime with hair and it disappeared leaving smell of burnt wool.
- What a hell it is? Live it here, I'll go find the alchemist...
- It is a fire imp goo! Remember, it rose from magma pipe and began pursuing smiths and smelters, so we were called to arms. That's how it got dirty, and then the hand of guy carrying it began melt and bleed. Since we lack waepons, next guy chose the same spear and got constantly injured again!

Onul sighed in relief, painted yellow F on the spear so no one would touch it anymore and said - So, the case is closed. By the way, do it inflict more damage to opponent? Maybe, if we could protect our hands with gloves or something, it won't hurn us anymore...
- And I'm thinking of more massive defence. If we'll have another fire imp, I think we should make him bleed out at the outer gates where invaders will attack. Maybe that would heat them up, he he! 

Actually, I spent hours before I found the reason, and mostly because I was watching the sixth recruit while he was picking up equipment. I knew about death from fire imp leather cloak, but never thought that imp's blood can hurt when it's spattered on weapon!

[Mormota]

You know. I'm fairly certain we both meant weapons included by asking if any of the equipment is contaminated. Well, it was fun nonetheless.

[kerlc]

so, now we can put on our riddles?

[Mormota]

I believe so, yes.

Yes, but you was asking about FB/titan contaminats only  So I used this as an excuse. I myself stumbled with that because I was looking for FB contaminats and forgot that imp.

so, now we can put on our riddles?

Sure!

[Mormota]

I'm close to giving up.

So, just to sum it up: They have not been killed by another dwarf, they have not been near any sort of beast that can give diseases, they were simply found in a pool of their blood? Found where, exactly?

Also, how do you make your dwarves spar? Mine only do individual training.

You said diseases. Heat is not the disease, so it was the reason to answer "no".
But I'm sorry for not so fair play.

After that toughness-fest, I'll do a kinda easy one.

A goblin steps into the entrance hallway and vanishes in a spray of blue and limbs. What happened?

[TSTwizby]

Someone dropped a troll on him from a few dozen z-levels up.

[peregarrett]

Is there any mods?

Blue is blood? gase? other liquid?
