Is it ok to please Armok by killing anything sapient even friendly units?

Since he is a god of blood, does it mean the only rightful way is to bleed enemies out?

Does it mean I should cause myself to bleed sometimes if I can do this safely?

Does it mean killing enemies that won't bleed with any other means is justified?

Does it mean I have not to kill but when my dwarven friends sleep instead just cause some bleeding until they are faint or pale and let them live for another time I bleed them?

Is being a vampire the only rightful way of doing this forever since those are literally blood driven creatures that offended gods who may in fact not exist and be simply fake decoys by Armok?

Is Armok actually fake and is merely a metaphor on bloodlust of modern gamers in virtual world?

Is there anything else I can do he would recognize as an A.I. controlled video game character that would please him? I know he's not implemented yet. Maybe he won't be.

Seriously?
Yes. It causes them to bleed from every possible point as they melt, and the blood is immediately cleaned. IE, gifted to Him.

Ok, but will he's A.I. in the future of the game's development be able to acknowledge who exactly is responsible for magma?

I guess than it's one and the same as scratching but not killing your dorfs preserves them for later to drop more blood.

Armok is not one thing and never will be. Armok is not in the game and never will be.

What is Armok? The game is Armok. The "player" is Armok. The code is Armok. ToadyOne and ThreeToe are Armok. The various communities - this forum, the discords, the subreddit, etc - are Armok.

All these things and more are Armok.

At the same time nothing is Armok and Armok is nothing.

Armok is just a meme.

Armok is the third word in the title of the game this forum is mostly about. It stands for ”arm_ok”, a variable used by the brothers Adams in earlier game to check whether a character still had its limbs attached.

Of course, roleplaying is fun regardless of what Armok really is. What about an altar? The wiki has some ideas for how to do one.

"Friends, this is clean-up time and we're discounting all our silent, electric Armoks by this much money. Yes, we're throwing away the blue-book. And remember: every Armok on our lot has been used only as directed."

"The best way to ask for beer is to sing out Armok. Made from select hops, choice water, slow-aged for perfect flavor, Armok is the nation's number-one choice in beer. Made only in Cleveland."

Etc.
