The universe collapses into itself leaving you never dying in an empty void forever.
Not a downside for him.

Granted. They are real and strong enough to work... and rebel.
Granted. You are guided in the wrong direction.

I wish I had free access to any SCP I chose, only those SCPs, and that my judgement remains unimpaired.

Everything runs on capacitors. <_<

I guess I will call them capacitors then. Almost have the electricity up, the first thing I plan to power them with is a one-tile workshop called a "computer" that uses one 25% of the time and gets up some skill when used. But first, I am giving the goblins a Siaga so they have more then one weapon.
Cool.

You could have multiple civs that have inter-migration or common conquering during worldgen, or make most races pets for one. The first might not do anything, though.

Sounds intriguing. Could you come up with some way to make them different than every other mod that adds a new, deadly race to invade? Come up with an idea, we'll see if we can make it.

Yes, but what would we call the coins?

Exactly. There is a universal currency that should be accepted throughout the kingdom, but most are more interested in food and metal.

I suppose the royal prices would be useful...Say, what should the currency be called?

Granted. Your anti-liberalism and pot smoking lead to internal conflict, your katana usage is inaccurate so you end up harming those you were trying to miss, the lightning follows the laws of physics, you can never take off the armor, your cult is illegal, and your cellmate is a superpowered KKK member.

I wish all wish corruptions were this thorough.

Probably not, but with "luck" you might be able to get some sort of magic item.
Good tools probably help.

Okay, a few things about that simulation derail: A simulation of our universe wouldn't necessarily be infinite, in fact, it probably wouldn't have infinite computing power. In all likelyhood, if we're living in a simulation (which is still a huge if), there's arbitrary boundaries and failsafes that we haven't hit/triggered yet. Or maybe we have, and it crashed the universe, prompting God/whoever to hotfix the issue and restore to a recent backup.

Two examples of physical phenomena that could possibly be some of said boundaries are black holes' apparent destruction of information and the apparent upper limit of energy a particle can have, which could also exist to stop us from perturbing the false vacuum and destroying the universe, if the hypothetical simulated universe does indeed exist in a false vacuum.
Hey, it would also explain the dark matter! We're just an older version running on someone's computer because they like us too much to upgrade to the version which fixes that darn accelerating expansion bug...To the place you apply for a Nobel prize to!
(Just kidding.)

Bout the size of Skyrim. It has it's graphics.

If it had the same level graphical fidelity then it would be massive. Due to graphics for all the rocks, the system for modeling statues, engravings, artifacts and all the other unique markings on objects. Then it would be massive.
Would Toady code it any other way?

I'm more knowledge about 3.5 than Pathfinder, but assuming this is on top of standard dwarven bonuses it sounds okay. Just a fluff note that would be cool to see in the rules: Dwarves only seem to go into martial trances when outnumbered. Maybe add a requirement to that effect and remove the AC penalty?
