Also, "Shakes around" apparently doesn't guarantee infection. I've only got one apparent infectee out of four "Shaken around" dwarves. I think it has to be the "Bite" attack that does it.
Hmmm... Perhaps some science will have to be done to solve this for sake of optimization and clarification.
Now thats a myth. He's like a dwarven beowulf.
Beodwarf.
Beodorf. Yes. I support this.
Kubuk Townfeeds was born in the year 16 of unknown descent. At the age of 1 he settled in Souththeater, at the age of 3 he moved to Shovesvessel and by the age of 12 he became a siege engineer in the town of Lancecrux. What happened to his parents, no one will ever know - these events happened 400 years ago. For just 1 year Kubuk would have spent his time in the Dwarven army laying siege to the walls of goblin and humankind. He would change career path when he was attacked by a monstrous troglodyte Vicira Northheated. Though defeated, the young Kubuk would have escaped with his life. This close encounter with death may have thrilled Kubuk to seek out and hunt the great beasts of the Spidery Forest, perhaps to one day find Vicira and even the score. Kubuk would spend the next 5 years hunting beasts in the spidery forest, killing swathes of undead creatures; twisted mockeries of life. Marrying at the age of 24 to a figure unknown, Kubuk fathered one daughter. 3 years later, hunting again in the forest, Kubuk would be ambushed by the hulking monster Vucar Urndies. The night fiend smashed Kubuk's tongue apart with a vicious claw, bellowing its knobbly trunk in triumph. Enraged, Kubuk charged into the hulking monster. He grabbed at it, and even as the creature tore through his flesh, Kubuk pulled with all his strength. With the last vestiges of his ailing might, Kubuk died, and with the last of his will - an all too sickening pop and tear prefaced the hulking monster Vucar Urndies being ripped in two.
Kubuk's daughter Olon Toeship would become a farmer. For 30 years she would farm plump helmets and harvest pig tail fibre. Then in the year of 82, amidst a constitutional crisis, Olon Toeship would move to Beachshoot and take charge, rising from being a farmer to queen and ruler of the esteemed mechanisms, ruling for 122 years, leading the torches of onslaught to war against the goblin foe. Her youngest son Zasit Walledwound proved to have his grandfather's wanderlust, and became a ranger, famously shooting and killing the minatour Lima. With his great strength and victory, Zasit Walledwound sought to fight the greatest foe there was. He attacked the Titan, Ak Blossomrains, and found he could not destroy rain itself - he was swept away. Olon's oldest son Cerol would briefly rule over the esteemed mechanisms after Olon died of old age, her body being interred beneath the scarlet mountain, until Cerol himself died of old age, ending the Townfeeds dynasty in the 3rd century.
Interestingly the Dwarves of the esteemed mechanisms are not the same Dwarves of Silentthunders, who hail from across the mountains in the south from the coincidental portals. The Dwarves of the esteemed mechanisms are the native Dwarves who settled on the river valley to the east of Silentthunders. Perhaps most interesting of all is that their first King was a Dwarf named Sazir Razorbelts. Like Olon, Sazir Razorbelts was a ruler of the esteemed mechanisms and he too led the torches of onslaught to war. Sazir Razorbelts is notable because he would become one of the world's first, if not the first, necromancer. The very same necromancer who is single-handedly maintaining the attack of volcanoes on Silentthunders. Rather worryingly, amongst the many books on philosophy that Sazir Razorbelts wrote, he appears to be a great military mind too. One of his books is simply titled: The Birth of The Commander. Add to his experience given that he is older than recorded history... Well, Sazir sounds like a Fun Dwarf to be around. It should be Fun to see how he attacks the walls next.
