As I have never been one to actually reread my own work, something about me cringing at certain things and thinking I am a bad writer.... I shall make another installment instead of fixing the first, something I will probably get to sometime in the future, but for now more of a description of Cacame... As I see him at least...

;>.> Mostly I was just bored and felt like writing something, but was too lazy for a story... I need an actual project to keep me busy...

I don't actually see him as having blond hair, though I know that's the traditional fantasy stereotype. But I tend to think of him as having black hair that is tinted somewhat green.

Or it was once blond until the blood of his enemies that always rained down on him to the point of it stained his hair to be that color... Where did the green come from?

He lives with dwarves. Dwarves throw up a lot.

...You make a valid point...

I now get the image of Cacame sitting on his throne as a dwarf enters the room to report on a large amount of booze missing from the stocks... at that point the dwarf pukes all over him and he sits there with a -.- expression....

Green because elves like plants.

One would think that Cacame like stone, magma, booze, and gore. He doesn't exactly strike me as a typical fluffy-headed, plant loving elf.

I think Cacame would best be characterized by a flower with magma for nectar.

All kidding aside, his story is epic. This is the stuff of Tolkien. Imagine taking one of these legends and using it as a model for a high fantasy novel.

EDIT: Thanks for pointing out the misspell.

You all do know that we everytime we gen a world in DF, a new universe is created somewhere, and everytime we delete a save we kill a whole world?

This is the second time I see tolkein here on the DF boards, the other time being a topic title even. I was beginning to think that it was meant to be spelled like that, but urban dictionary gave nothing except slight amusement.

For optimum offense to the elves, make as much as possible of it out of steel and clear glass.

Wouldn't making the whole thing out of wood upset them more?

That would be as deadly to the wielder as to anyone else!  You'd sever your own arm at the first swing!  It's perfect!

I dunno, seems to me that making it out of still recognizable wood wouldn't be as bad as using materials whose manufacture requires wood to be burned and made into ash or coke.  Well, the steel could be made with coke from coal, but the idea works better if you use wood-derived charcoal instead.  Plus, clear glass lets you see the pulsing magma blood inside the flower.
