Do I have a gay dwarf? (honestly homosexual relationship in game)
« on: December 12, 2009, 01:43:45 pm »
The Duke's Consort is male. Note, not "duchess," but "duke."

I don't care, but I think it's noteworthy that it occurred as I've never seen it before.

How could this happen in game terms and coding?

Just curious.

At least this way they won't be popping out kids like mad.

Well it could be a Consort in terms of being an official "Buddy" of the Duke.

That's not what 'consort' means, Neonivek.

Why is this in general discussion and not in DF general discussion?

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

I clicked on the wrong thing.... Is it really that out of place here though?

It is a less used definition.

Though can you think of a term for someone hired by nobility in order to be a pal?

After a little bit of extremely light research, I'd probably say that consort can mean someone who just goes around with them.  They could be, I dunno, their secretary or personal assistant... maybe.

The thing that confuses me about dorfs is this. Dorf 1 dies in an avalance or somesuch. Dorf 2 is friends with dorf 3 and dorf 1. Dorf 2 berserks because of his friends death and kills dorf 3. also a friend. W. T. F.
Clearly you've never been drunk.

Well, we could always just derail the thread with arguments over morals and homosexuality. Then it'll fit in perfectly.

Well, they kinda appear without warning or developing relationships first.
Either he is setup by far-out relatives who really don't like him, or some woman sends over her consort because she got tired of him.

...What?

I can't tell what "blight" you're referring to, but if I've got the right one in mind, you're joking, right?
