Drunken Mayor
« on: May 28, 2009, 08:55:49 pm »

Lacking a screenshot tool, but I just found out that my Mayor (not my *REAL* mayor, but my Civ's queen consort I think) is a Mayor/Drunk by way of the Civilization screen.

1) Is this normal? Are most dwarves drunks?
2) Do you think I an recruit him in adventure mode?

Well, it depends on your definition of drunk since Dwarves consume booze like it's water and don't seem to suffer from any of the ill effects of it.

1. No. They are alcoholics. Important distinction.
2. Yes.  I fully support doing this.  (portable quest giver! woot!)

For those who don't know, "Drunk" is a profession in Adventure Mode.  If FM pulls from that database to create the "previous professions" of immigrant nobles, that may be what happened.

("Drunks" are, essentially, cannon fodder for adventurers to hire and herd them toward the monsters while leading and shooting from in back of everyone.)

I encountered something like this in adventure mode, but instead of a measly little dwarf, it was a drunk Demon at a goblin tower. I tried recruiting him, but the fact that he's a faction member overrules the fact that he's drunk.

And you can't eat them, either, sadly. Even though it'd make sieges so much more fun; dwarves lining the walls, drooling and carrying sharp knives and forks, ready for the upcoming meals.
