Ramblings about Dwarf Fortress, Doctor Who, Tolkien, roguelikes, and other nonsense. He/him
Oh, my bad. It took TWO hits. The entirety of the combat log, from its arrival to being sliced in half

Possibly the least threatening forgotten beast I've ever gotten.
Dwarves aren't afraid of vomit, you should see the fort entrance.

The first weapon that lands a hit on this guy is going to kill it instantly. That's if a passing stray kitten doesn't brush against it.

Special ability: Hungy!

Well, they do have rat men in the game. They even can even settle in your fort now and then

This guy has been sitting at the bottom of a deep pond outside my fort for oh, about a year now.

Can't get out, can't drown, can't hurt anyone. Dwarves don't even notice him.

I'm probably just going to pave over that pond, just in case.

He's happy about how good at swimming he's getting, though

Y'all are laughing at 'Babies worship unknown gods' as a bug in Dwarf Fortress, but you really ought to have a nosey at the bug tracker sometime. Nearly every line is a gem.

Excuse me, this is Dwarf Fortress. You've not even encountered any of my dwarves yet, but you're off having your own life-changing adventures down in the caves.

Needing a little more focus here, people

It'll be a pantomime Satan in a red onesie, though. There to look stupid and inept and make you feel better about being on the winning team
November 15, 2025 at 2:09 AM
If they're "forever rolls", though, why are they offering a two pack?

Dwarf Fortress manages to surprise me regularly, even after this many years.

I've seen plenty of ghosts over the years, but I don't think I've seen one possess another dwarf and make their body throw a tantrum.

I'll hold off on the bolt throwers on this one
November 12, 2025 at 2:08 AM
I was joking at first, but we'll see how this plays out
November 7, 2025 at 3:25 AM
Oh boy, and time for some more dwarven !!SCIENCE!!. Last time was 'does being bitten by a werecreature while they're in human form transfer the curse?' (No)

This time, it's 'Does a werecreature ranimated in werecreature form as an intelligent undead still curse people it bites?'

OK, I officially have no idea who is on who's side any more. The necromancer I thought had summoned the nightmare just got grabbed by it
November 7, 2025 at 12:06 AM
Only in Dwarf Fortress do you have to parse sentences like this
November 7, 2025 at 12:02 AM
I swear to god after I posted this, I panned right, to see /another/ werebeast in the dining room, and it appears we also have a necromancer patron who's upset by all this and is reanimating severed limbs and summoning that big skeletal nightmare thing there.

Now this is what I call a dwarf tavern
November 6, 2025 at 11:48 PM
We interrupt your floating dwarf shenanigans to bring you your second unannounced werecreature this year, tearing everyone to ribbons in the tavern before you even notice.

This one has antlers!

The exact moment the tree is cut down, exploding into logs minecraft-style, but everyone is still suspended in mid-air like Wile E Coyote
November 6, 2025 at 10:38 PM
Delightful. The best possible time to be struck by a strange mood is when you're halfway up a fruit tree, and someone else took the ladder away. Goodbye framerate while this guy tries to path to a workshop he can't reach.

A solution is on the way, at 2fps. It involves axes.

Unlike you, I get my news from a reliable source
October 29, 2025 at 5:24 PM
No way to prevent this, says only nation where this regularly continues to happen

In conclusion, Caves of Qud is a land of contrasts

That dog is like the exact opposite of those borzois that look like they're about to give you a quest
