!!CHEMISTRY!!

!!BIOLOGY!!

Weaponisation of innocent living things. Guilty living things are often weaponised as well. Branch of !!SCIENCE!!.

I just put 2 !!'s next to each other, also I think the weaponisation to doomsday description covers this ;P

On the theme of ‼SCIENCE‼:

Urist

1. Dwarven word for dagger, a very common name
2. Standard dwarven increment of measurement, most commonly temperature, but can be used to describe distance (Uristmeters) among other things.

Capybara

A large rodent, secretly the masters of the universe, it is them who decides who lives and who dies while Armok is on the toilet.

Construction

Article of dwarven architecture made out of almost any material (including soap), made immune to destruction by periodic additions of beard hair during construction. The hair serves as incredibly strong rebar, rendering the construction immune to heat, damp, corrosion, dissolution or demolition.

You don't need unicode to type ‼ since it is part of the ASCII code.  On windows machines, hold alt and then type the character code (in this case 19) on your numpad.  If you wanted to use unicode to type the character, you'd need to jump through a few more hoops.

Booze
Noun
1. An organic compound in which the hydroxyl functional group (-OH) is bound to a carbon atom, usually connected to other carbon or hydrogen atoms. 2. A miraculous substance that allows dwarves to work for weeks without food or water, allows them to ignore pain (physical and emotional) as long as there is an abundant and diverse amount of it,  gives them the courage to fight horrors from beyond the veil of time and space, and allows them to forget that their biscuits are made from kitten brains and puppy eyes.
Note: _{Due to such high alcohol consumption, Dwarven blood is slightly more than 100 proof, making it roughly on par with Wild Turkey.}

It does. Dwarven science for example is !!SCIENCE!! because it's often on fire.
