Elves have access to the best variety of animals. Outsiders can have any animal, but do not start with enough points to get the juciest ones. War hydra, anyone?

That’s good to hear!

Save often and make backups. There are some areas that continue to cause crashes. Nothing worse than losing lots of progress. 

It might have been when i made Rusna fertile, i might of accidently made the entire fortress fertile which may have included the imprisioned blind sadist

No, it wasn't you. I tend to rely on eggs for my food in early years of a fortress and I always use "/fixster all" and it has never worked on vampires before.

I found a script somewhere to instantly make any creature pregnant. I used it to make sure the King and Queen would have an heir born in my fort, even though they have some children in Holykingdom/Balancehammer. I wondered if it would also work on Moldath.

I used DwarfTherapist to find the female dwarf with the best stats and used it on her. Thing is, she is already married... I used the military to reclaim Keyconjure after the last dwarf from the Staff of Kissing died and the team of 10 soldiers then occupied it.

Moldath was then made the Baron of Keyconjure, and made the move on one of those soldier's wives, an axe lord. It seemed like a Blind Sadist kind of thing to do.

Anyway, here is the script. As long as one of the targets is female, it will produce a child in fort mode. No idea if it works in adventure mode.

Save on DFFD for posterity.

Thanks, I never even thought of that. I have edited my post to link to your DFFD copy of the save, which is the one Wonderpsycho should download for the momentous Turn 100!

So who did you play as? Because Moldath is still not visible in LV and Kothvir seems to have remained inactive.

Yes, I played as Moldath, once again. He is now the Baron of Keyconjure and Champion of The Eternal Citadel. Maybe that will stop his vampiric nomadic urges?

He arrived at my new Page of Tiredness fort in a migrant wave on 28th Limestone 940 as a "hunter necromancer" pretending to be called Bembul and convincing absolutely nobody, spent several months in the hospital giving me two legendary surgeons, before eating four dwarves. I anticipated issues with sleuthing due to lack of LV so took a few screenshots which I will post later.

I don't know why he continues to crash LV and it looks like the addon isn't supported any more. Nobody responded to Avolition's post highlighting the issue, and with the move to 0.50, it's obsolete now?

In other, but worrying, news, The Staff of Kissing continues to be dying at now 19 dwarves. It needs to be saved ASAP. I'm sorry I didn't notice it during my turn.

Well, Queen Vucar Axesafety is a vampire, so they won't die out...

I will post the save today.

Fine with me.
And enjoy the festivities!

Thanks Bralbaard. I’ve played for a couple of hours and no crashes. Saving often!

What... is this?

Umm, nothing to see here, just a human couple who adopted a reptile man baby who wanted to bring peace to the world! Interestingly, Gezt had four totally regular human siblings. Before he was horribly burned to death.

Sounds like you’ve been having fun adventures, and the game seems pretty stable.

Found first laggy site, a petrified wood castle (Spicetrails). I'm worried. Saving. LV says it's empty. I wonder what causes the lag, then.

Spicetrails used to be Moldath's castle! It was usually overrun with wildlife. Stored all Moldath's treasure there but some sneaky thieves kept pinching it, so he moved it to Iroldeduk. There might still be some interesting stuff there, I can't fully remember.

Pik and Desli got split up - Desli was captured and imprisoned by the Page of Tiredness. She should still be at Holykingdom.
