Random fortress name: "Longcat"

Now I just need to find a way to build fortress Tacgnol on the other side of the river.

I tried to do Ceilingcats. the best I could get was Catceilings.

'One does not simply drive Tankcat into the Goblin fortress...'

anyway, I have these as river names:


Lunchnightmare
savage tummy (I lie how this one was right nearby the one above)

Gerbilskewers
Floodpolished the dangers of Dating
Amuseache the Ears of Sucking
Violentbarb the Tactical Lard

these two seem to go together as well:
The Cruel Girdle
Crevicetugs

Floodspoiled the Dangers of Dating should've been right next to Inkstunt the Convenient Baby.

I remember seeing the Hills of Vomit while checking around a newly-genned world. Sounds like a swell place.

Try keeping your dwarves indoors for a few years, then let them out. You will have a mini-version of those all for yourself.

The Hammer of Speech reminded me that my current expedition is named The Crystal of Speech, but I made up some mythology about dwarven sentience to go along with it.

One of my dwarves has the last name Helmarch.  I know what it's supposed to be, but I can read it Hel-march if I want.

A dwarf got possessed and made a bituminous coal earring(only coal was used in the decorations) called The Bewitched Abysses.  It scares me.  Even more so when I checked back and saw that the stream near my fort is Bewitchedscorched.

This is what happens when you try to stuff your (or a goblin's) head through it.

A goblin civilization called Tode Sost, or "The Disloyalty of Wheels." how can a wheel be disloyal? We can't even MAKE wheels!

And now we know why we can't make them. They're disloyal.

A new one:
An ocean titan named Covema Drinkbuds. Drinking buddies, woohoo!

And a newer one: The Oceanic Sea. You don't say...

Urist Nutwhipped is my favorite dwarf name. I also got a really epic-sounding soldier with a ton of titles, "Kubuk Siegedcrystals the Rainy Guardian of Containers". What does it even mean? :o

I once had a forgotten beast named Nom.  Not funny eh?  Think how the name gives the translation immediately after?  Now think of how FB names tend to translate as the original name?  Funny naow? ^,^

Some squads I have right now...

The Bolts of Fleeing.
The Trampled Boulder-Children

And, fittingly, my siegetime conscripts,
The Merchants of Defense.

Is the first one a marksdwarf squad?

As a matter of fact, they are. And though I may not remember much fleeing, 5 of their original 7 members got killed. Maybe they should have.

I also got a really epic-sounding soldier with a ton of titles, "Kubuk Siegedcrystals the Rainy Guardian of Containers". What does it even mean? :o

He's the dwarven patron saint of buckets.
