The Gloom...

Oh Dear.
Armok Save Us.
Itll be just like Boatmurdered, but without the Fire!
And it will be BRILLIANCE! I WILL REVEL IN THE GLORY OF ARMOKS FURY, AND IN THE BLOODLUST, AND THE RAGE, HIS WILL WILL BE DONE! My First Fortress will be a Dungeon, in which Hate and Anger will Breed in a Wildfire of Destruction, and MISERY! I, will be the first on the Forums to overcome the Trials that will be pitched against Us, that We may ensure a Fruitful, and Peaceful Life for our Dwarves. The Journey from the Mountainhomes is Hard, and when We are finally rid of the Shackles of the Noblemens Society, We will be Free of such petty Constraints as Law, and Order! We will need to be able to provide for Dwarfkind, a Prosperous and Happy Life , and the Pleasure of Witnessing the Suffering of the Pathetic, Stupid, Bark Eating Bigotrous Swine that comprise the Degenerate Elves. Whatever their Breed, every one of them will be Captured, and made to suffer for their existence in OUR LAND!

PRAISE ARMOK!

Toady said that there will be mild rains that just cause blistering and burns, and the eerie glowing mist is presumed to make Dwarves berserk.

And I doubt there will be only effects - these are probably procedurally generated like FB syndromes.

Dwarf Fortress - where the primary reason to prevent death of your citizens is that it makes them more annoying then they were in life.

Probably not with the eerie glowing mist though. It's eerie... And glowing... AND MISTY!!! :D

Well from what i've heard so far it sounds great but is there any real way of utalizing it? Or will it be like snow and blood etc.?

...this plus insanity=the ultimate supersoldiers.

Anguished, berserk dwarves, their comforts in life all but gone. Their only repast is to murder all who stand in their way, to sooth the mental and physical pain they undergo each moment. Their bloodlust can match Armok himself, and their fearlessness outmatches a heavily drunk dwarf.

This, my friends, is the future of Dwarf Fortress.

The way I read it, the whole point of the randomised materials framework being written in was to make this eerie glowing mist happen. So yes, I am expecting completely different effects to occur for each world's "eerie glowing mist", or even each separate instance of the mist. Clearly, if you want ultimate badass berserk machine mutations, you gotta mod the interaction into the booze/food of your choice and imbibe it instead of relying on random mists.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

Oh yes.  I'm looking forward to the eventual "Embark right inside a cursed mist and lose the game the instant you unpause."

Will we be able to create radioactive mist using pitchblende?

~Legendary brain surgeon. Never leave the Fort without some eerie glowing mead!
For some reason this makes me think of The Reanimator.  :o  :D
