Yeah, this is definitely one of the better things that has happened. Ever.

I've got an unregulated portrait to do for painting this semester. Cacame may well fill that slot.

Portrait? This interests me.

Say, I'm still wondering if we're going to see any more of your stories?

Keep in mind that I'm not all that good, so no hope-gearing now, but I will give it a shot.

It's possible. I am deluged with writing work right now, so I am unsure how soon I'll be able to get to any DF-related stuff. And I really want to write an entire novel based on Cacame, probably focusing on his early life and rise from pansy elf child to badass mountain king. Though that is at least a year away from starting.

The big thing is if I get a really good idea for a story. In the event I do, I'll probably write something.

So, yeah, I wrote a new story. I live in the DC area, which is currently under about three feet of snow. I'm stuck inside and had nothing to do all day, so I wrote. First a piece I was commissioned to do for a magazine, then I got an idea about Cacame and decided to throw this together.

Enjoy We Would Be Legends.

Has anybody else had an elf king since the OP? I just got one tonight (fort population: 7 dwarves, 1 dwarf locked outside waiting to go insane) after hitting the fun stuff.

Yes. Several people have had elf kings or queens.

None happen to be as epic as Cacame, but they pop up from time to time.

I'm still waiting for a goblin or kobold king, but sadly it seems dwarves don't tend to actually go to war (and thus conquer) goblins or kobolds with anywhere near the frequency of elves.

I don't know if you CAN war Kobs.

But I think it's more that elves get wood and gobs, etc. get iron...

Somebody had a goblin king named Wraith Sicknesslie a while back, but he wasn't very badass.

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!

They siege you if they manage to steal a lot of stuff. Honestly, Ive never seen it, and I think that your fortress design/defense must be structurally backwards if this happens by accident (or you forget about your wagon).

I think theyre like elves, in that they start hidden, and are pretty weak at that.

I mean in worldgen, since it'd require that to get a kobold king.

Probably can't happen thanks to [UTTERANCES] anyway.

I've had it happen after they steal a bunch of stuff from corpses and dead caravans outside my walls.
