I plan to build a large aztec style entrance, covered in the blood of sacrificed animals and goblins, and when that migrant walks in....

THE ROOF FALLS DOWN

The migrants looks in surprise as it is contained within a small 3x3 cell even as it is knocked unconscious by the dust, hopefully also severely injured.

After being dug out, the dwarves then bring the migrant to a traction bench, and strap it down.
The chief medical dwarf notices the strange symptoms.... And diagnoses the dwarf as a vampire.
The guard close in, looming through the doorway, demanding to see the migrant, axe raised....

So you're saying a thorough diagnosis won't be able to discover a bloodsucker?

[khearn]

Frankly, I hope vampires/werewolves/necromancers aren't going to be so common that we need to drop a ceiling on every migrant to test them.

Not that there's anything wrong with dropping a ceiling on very migrant.

If you like that sort of thing.

*Nods slowly*

My Surgeon Dwarves need to practice their !!SCIENCE!!.

[Girlinhat]

Here's hoping for an init.  I want half my migrants as vampires that all need sniffing out~

[Loud Whispers]

Rows upon rows of rooms... Clustered dwarves... Perfect for cults of vampires to start growing....


THE HUNTS BEGIN

[TerryDactyl]

I suspect vampires in the populace will be rather quite bothersome. In the long run. And that we're probably looking at a whole new set of possibilities in the MOD-o-sphere. This is 'just' vanilla, after all.

After that burst of releases we got last time... I'm really looking forward to this update. Edge-of-my-seat and such.

I get the feeling that when this is implemented, there will be new strokes of ingenuity to catch or make use of this new being. Just like the engineering plans of old.

I'm already making plans.

Once I've discovered one, we're talking glass rooms, steel/lead walls, chickens pumped in via air lock... Discover their weaknesses... Exploit their strengths....

Oh it's going to be a goooood update.

Here's an idea:

You notice that one of your male dwarves has silver hair, wears a fur coat, and gets stronger after every kill. He gains the powers of his enemies. Though the evil inside him grows, he does not exhibit any traits of vampirism. Is he a vampire, or is he mortal? You decide!

Though lame and not well-thought-out, I thought it would be a nice addition to the Alucard and Simon/Richter/Juste/Julius Belmont references.

[Loud Whispers]

Man, that would be too easy. I would throw them on the GROUNNNDDD MAAAN!

I'd seriously prefer to stick to the original dev. idea of vampires trying their best to conceal their curses.... All fortress conscription will have a new advantage.

1) Implement garlic
2) Feed to all dwarves
3)
4) Profit?

*Watches all dwarves paint the walls green with vomit*

O__O

Probably should've thought this more through.

Then we would name our first vampire Vlad the third and arm him with an artifact silver spear right?

Why? Green is much better than Microline blue.

[Loud Whispers]

I don't like having green dwarves.
