Right now I'm embarked ob a glacier with a frozen sea next to me, so the only animals I see are from trade. Thank Armok for elves and there many exotic animals.

Ok. Now i know this is a bug.


I just bought an Elf in a cage. From the Elves.

My god, THAT IS AWESOME!!!

Does he join your race as another member, with a bedroom and everything, or is he on the pet list?

Oh cool! Maybe one day you will get a dwarf in a cage!

Well I remember once while playing I ran out of stone (Hard to believe, but with this mass of ore I was building in a lump of magnetite and had a mason, stone crafter and two furnace operators all taking my limestone) so production of EVERYTHING stopped for about a week while I got my miners to stop farming and dig out some rocks.

After that week my stone crafter took a break, so another week lost, and that's a fair amount of time without figurines to sell, not to mention he was also my brewer, so all in all not as many crafts as I would have liked by the first summer, and got a grand total of two dwarfs. I would say it is very much linked! However, if that clowite sword that you get at some sites counts towards wealth, that would attract a few migrants this way.

Most likely the cat was hungry and wanted to wait untill the kid got fatter and flavored with beer.

So then how the frk am i going to kill him?

I thought that was obvious. You don't.

Funny story, they already do. I have a dwarf get possesed, grab a stack of oak logs, take over a bowers workshop, and make a artifact blow pipe. It was the most worthless artifact ever at only 2400 and because he was possessed I didn't get a legendary dwarf from it...

But that's not the point! Yes, your dwarfs can now make legendary whips out of obsidian.

When dwarfs decide they want a body part from a fellow dwarf, they have a habit of taking it, other then that fish bones will do.

I always watch my embark very carefully, down to the last point.
