Yeah, just look for I's on the map, they might not exist if your world is too young (maybe too old too). Don't worry, everyone is friendly, you can just walk in at the beginning of the game!

If you're really lucky, your necro can become the ruler of your dwarfs.

It'd be nice to screw with the elves as a necromancer Is it possible to destroy their entire race in adventurer?

This, indeed, is ☼Science☼.
Of course, as an engineering major, I'm mostly interested in the practical applications, i.e. optimal bolt-making materials, which seem to be silver and steel (the latter being much more resource intensive).
Conclusion: Silver is the optimal material for bolts in terms of both availability and damage potential.1) (Fake) bone seems an adequate supplement, although the results are, of course, only approximate in that case.

In any case, I salute your impressive statistical analysis.
♪ so the ‼Science‼ gets done
and you make some neat *silver bolts [20]*
for the dorfs that are
Still Alive...♫

1) This seems to be a significant deviation from real-world physics, where iron and bronze are far superior bolt materials. Steel, of course, is quite effective in real life as well.
