Epic dorf soldier names
« on: January 31, 2012, 03:41:56 pm »

I've seen this thread before, but rather than search and necro I'm starting it over.  Because of:

Nil Typhoonwork, The Tin Soldier of Caves

She wields:

Stindurad, the Strifeful Beard - a masterwork iron short sword.

Nil is a Legendary Swordsdwarf with 43 notable kills to her name, 16 others, all with Stindurad. (That's the most kills of any dwarf in the fort.)  I imagine the name was given to her ironically, since she is clad in steel, not tin.  However, given the implications of the implacable, metal warrior, it's pretty damned apropos.

Further, she is the creator of:

Lelumubas Fazisral, Warningscream the Celebrated Silver - a wooden toy axe

Sometimes the Random Name Generator has its shit together.

I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

My current Captain of the Guard is nicknamed The Murder of Brothers (though he's never done so).

Anguishdirges. She is my most experienced torturer speardorf, and she's taken down about 50 or so elves, causing anguished funeral dirges.

My king is a legendary hammerdwarf with the name Cerol Hammerlabors the Tufted Beans. This name amuses me for some reason.

I name like that will mean a lot more in the coming update when his brother decides to visit...

OK, I have to reload the save.
There was a bit of a problem regarding flashfreezing, a ballistae, and a barrel of dwarven ale. Gonna fix it up.

I'm just picturing some poor cheesemaker locked in prison for an export violation.

Cheesemaker: "How long until I get out?"

Reg Faithtrumpet locks the shackles, then holds out the key, slowly places it in his mouth...

In my current fort (five years old, 20 dwarves in the military):

Logem Focusrazor
Stukos Lancespeak
Libash Bulbwinds the Circumstantial Partner of Doctrine
Urist Wheeledcoppers the Harsh Hill of Irons
Cog Whipholes the Golden Complex Musics of Wealth

and the winner is...

Erush Braidtin the Constructive Disembowelling Strike, a female axedwarf.
