One of the resident dukes has made a demand!

A steel bed in his room.

One of my dwarves prefers to eat giant Moon Snails... Fair enough.
Oh, but he also absolutely detests Moon Snails.
The only good Moon Snail is a prepared Moon Snail.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Got you beat. Mine wants a Chipmunk tooth bed. I'm debating the value of him being alive versus not exactly being alive anymore...

While they'll be just sort of disappointed if you fail a demand, is that even theoretically possible? Bonecrafters don't use such teeth, fell moods require a live being, macabre moods use remains....

'Zat so?

Oh god. I advise not to Google "Bird with teeth".

So i immediatedly go into vamphunt lockdown. I build the special cell, i check the wiki and forums on how to find a vamp. Finally think I've found em and i lock the bugger away as a bookkeeper for all eternity. I mean they met ALL of the requirements, the signs were there. Even the rediculous abundance of job skills and socials.


Fast forward 2 months, no deaths.


Then the bastard dies of starvation. Que panic mode.
Turns out they were an immigrant uberdwarf from an old fort i retired. And were related to half my fort....


Needless to say my fort imploded on a tide of blood and angry dorfs. Got the vampire though. Buuuut with only 6 of 93 dwarves surviving i just abandoned after sealing the site with a wall, roof, and floors.

It was my dorfnobyl.
My sincere condolences.

You can use the forum-dwarves DFHack script, it saves the text to a file.

That's what I thought, but the steel-bed-demanding duke suggests otherwise.

So, in my rather modded game, there are butterfree that are common_domestic, they can fly, I brought two on embark, take a guess as to what happened next. If you guessed, "The Dwarves couldn't put it into a pasture because it kept flying away" you would be correct. After enough fiddling with DFhack I managed to get it on the ground for long enough for someone to grab it

Hmm. But I've had a pet peach-faced lovebird. All beak! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0WOXELI1Gs&t=0m49s

So... Back on-topic. When my militia aren't fully-equipped, and one of them dies trying to loot a dead merchant outside of the fort...
Poorly-equipped half of army: "CHARRRRGE!"
Well-equipped half of army: *waits for more dwarves to die before running outdoors to loot their corpses*
Guy manning catapult: "Guys wait - come back!"

Thankfully I only lost several dwarves due to some next-level item forbidding.

Do weapons that killed dwarves give unhappy thoughts? Cuz I've melted all of them.
