Artwork on my new artifact door

"Zas Flamebrass is speaking with the dwarves. The artwork relates to the impersonation of the dwarf Thikut PagedHollow by the dwarf Zas Flamebrass before The Assaulted Portal"
Impersonation. Cool. Artwork about a portal on a door. Very Cool.

Also have dwarves meditating on Suicide, and Jewels. Ya know, just normal everyday dorf life.

DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Observation Skill

Looking at my dwarves, I see a lot of legendaries. I don't remember that many the last time I checked, and definitely not that many strange moods, so I check their skills.

90 dwarves. 50 are legendary, 44 are legendary observer. Spread across multiple migration waves, multiple professions, no significant pattern. Except that we just finished bruising a giant child to death. Looks like the giant fainted from over-exertion, followed by more than 30 pages of punching giant in the head, by just about everyone. Even the cat child joined in.

So, uh, punching bag practices observer? Watching other dwarves punch the bag practices observer? Feature, or bug? Anything useful I can do with 50 legendary observers?

The bunny bites the giant child in the head, denting the skin and bruising the fat!  :o

Next page or so of the combat log: bunny nibbles on giant child, giant child breaks the bunny's grip, giant child misses bunny
The giant child collapses from over-exertion.

That bunny is doing better than my entire militia.

Were-anteater fun. One survivor of the initial attack so I isolate him in a nice empty room, hole in top to drop food in. He transforms and jumps out either though the hole in the ceiling or the fortifications. And then stops to throw up because sunlight.

One peasant takes an entire page of 'shaken around by the head', 'an artery opens', before dieing. Another survives temporarily.
Then the carpenter (and oh, yeah, the barely trained military) arrives. Carpenter bites were. Carpenter plays 'got your nose' with were. Carpenter gets bruised, but no cuts & no bleeding. Yay.
The military eventually accidently kills the were. Lessee, 'tearing the middle spine nervous tissue' makes the were drop it's weapon (leather shoe). No other effect. On the next page, silver war hammer drives ribs through the heart, then gets stuck. Were doesn't seem to notice. Over the next four pages, were gets skull fractured, hand nearly cut off, tail broken, lower spine nervous damage, and improves its observation (that was very satisfying). And finally it dies of...
bleeding out, while dodging.

Fighting with heart ripped apart? Very tough anteater. Final score: 2 dead peasants, one ex-military with no feet who will be an anteater next month.
