mildly?
oh yeah and there's this one goblin who has also been alive for all of recorded history and the first notable thing that she ever did was forcing a chef to embezzle money
some other entertaining oddities include an elf, who has been alive for all recorded history, and had 7 or 8 wives and TWENTY CHILDREN before the year 80.
and this goblin, who started out as a fisherman, and is now (unsuccessfully) carrying out assassinations for a necromancer
After slaying the zombie hydra, she was sadly killed by a giant, who is now wandering the plains tormenting society WITH HER SPEAR
oh yeah, it's also worth noting that one of my Farmers was taken by a strange mood, and despite having a relevant workshop with 2000+ plants and plenty of livestock, decided to instead stand in the hills overlooking the outpost, and dehydrate to death.
Who was this noble dwarf, you may ask?
Well, her name was Kogan, and quite frankly a new personal inspiration of mine, for you see, in her early twenties she started a job making cheese in her town, and after A SINGLE YEAR of employment,
took off into the woods!
Around 4-ish decades after this massacre, it found a hole and was minding its own business, killing whoever came by, chilling out etc. before a dwarf finally killed it 30 years later.
So naturally, this ZOMBIE HYDRA, spent much of it's documented life going on a slaughtering spree, most notably in the year 110 where it just kinda.. deleted a town off the map
The second of which is a chain of events that started with seeing this fucking thing in my historical figures list.
So far the outpost has been fine, my dwarves haven't been melting. But I am physically fucking UNABLE TO DIG BELOW CLAY because of what looks like an entire Y-layer of WATER below my outpost.
I have retired my fortress while my friend embarks on his own fort with the save file.
ALSO ONE OF THE NEAREST CIVILIZATION IS TEN THOUSAND GOBLINS
Just for fun I looked into embarking a new outpost a day's travel away from the dungeon and turns out! Nothing is near the dungeon! because! The climate of the entire surrounding area is SCORCHING climate!
Which mechanically looks something like THIS!
The first of which was this MYSTERIOUS DUNGEON surrounded by basically nothing who's name directly translates to FLAYED SCARS, and well, surely something must have occurred here, right?
..Right?
Naturally, the next day I took some time to read through the chronicles of the world in Legends mode, and found two of my favorite bullshit things I've ever seen from DF
Like a fucking moron after setting the scene for a world with too many savage beasts, more than a thousand civilizations, and the maximum allowed 1000 secrets, generated North + South pole, I also set the end year of world generation to a VERY ambitious year 325.
Generation took an hour and a half
Okay, so. After being overtaken by a strange mood, I started by pouring over every single parameter in Advanced world generation. No stone went unturned, every facet tuned to my, perhaps diagnosable, desire
You did this.
My purpose here is to turn the static lead's brain into scrampled egg
One like and I will start info dumping about the insane Dwarf Fortress world I generated this week
They should let Lorna Shore cover bands play at Margaritaville
It dawned on me that I don't know how to spell 'cocoa' and I will not be fixing it.
I am overcome with a strange urge to spike a mug of hot coco with saké
hm.
hm,
Huge moves happening in the discord today
Costco membership expired today
(Next week silly static nights will also occur on tuesdays!)
Small domino: I try out Linux as a means of distracting myself
Big domino: I set my nickname in a discord server to "Jort Authority" while cackling the whole time
Never Forget
Never Forget
Thinking about murder drones again and being completely normal
