I have an artifact with wool spikes that has an image of the artifact created before it.

I once had two artifacts with pictures of each other on them. The save's been gone for years, though.

I wonder if there will be an artifact of someone crafting a different artifact of someone crafting a different artifact of...


going on until all artifacts created by the fortress are in one. It would probably be very unlikely though

My starting mason is a dabbling miner somehow, but I know I've never enabled that labor much less have a third pick lying around. Is there non-mining labor that will increase that skill?

if he ever had that job active and one of your miners dropped their pick and he took it to start mining, that could be the reason.

The "gather refuse from outside" option also enabled cleaning labors outside. The legendary gelder is lucky I noticed in time.

It's a recent embark so I'm sure I didn't intentionally - thought I am using Dwarf Therapist for the first time so I could have accidentally toggled it on and off while futzing around.

I sent a raid with a lot of war hounds. Their puppies follow them to the edge of the map, but come back (I guess yelping and moaning) to the fortress when their mothers goes away to war.

kind of touching.

Staalo reported that parrying with pots inexplicably trains mining.

That would explain it! Plenty of large pots around, he was probably trying to beat a kea to death with it.

While digging a staircase in ground with a 1/7 covering of water, it lags behind the newly dug out Z level, resulting in it falling as a mist and giving my miner a nice perpetual waterfall as she descends.

Apparently dorfs can feel gratitude of all things from sparring. An emotion normally caused by gifts of food, water, or rescue after injury.

One of my starting Dwarves has a grudge with two of the other starting Dwarves. One of them also has a grudge, but the other is friends with Dwarf A. He’s the person who hangs around someone else and considers them a friend, even though the object of friendship hates him. I sympathise.
