Dwarf Nicknames.
« on: July 01, 2023, 03:19:12 pm »

Nothing will make your game come alive better than naming your dwarfs as you get them.

Other things you can do: put the children in dorms, use individual barrels of mead and drink in the halls, be sexist in the military establishment, don't enforce the law.

Segregate society.  Segregate class.  Segregate workhorses.  Segregate royalty.  Segregate nobility.  Segregate establishment.

And in the end: cages hoisted by chains, over magma, on a flat, over all the magma.

Edit: And it turns out, dwarfs are cool.

Climb a tree, be a person...

Did you know dwarfs have lives.  Windows 2008.  Server's calling, get in there.

Edit 2: Now I'm a dwarf.

A very systemic dwarf.

I have realities.

Now I'm not reptillian, I have facade.

Messenger's were the due hubris of mankind by the way.  But I digress and disagree: have you ever suffered.

I'm an idea.

The basis on which all democracy was founded on backing.  I exist.

And it just comes down.  What do I want?

How high were you when you made that edit?

A truly dwarven way to post.

This is why you're not supposed to lick the Floating Guts.
