The muck raining on the terrifying half of my embark didn't seem to be doing anything. Then a wave of migrants ran through it and came out with mangled mouths and bruises from head to toe. I'm trying not to imagine what these dwarves have to go through to socialize.

World Gen settings are so weird. I'm trying to increase the savagery of the world and I'm getting 2 consistent features. Joyous mountains and haunted oceans.

I know I'm pushing the world gen parameters when it takes nearly 6000 attempts to generate a world.

I've started playing around with world gen. It's surprising what even a small change seems to cause. I upped the maximum temp by a few degrees and every mountain is joyous. I'm excited to see what the extra erosion did to the landscape. Plus a joyous forest I've never seen!

My favorite humanoids so far: the sponge people! Unfortunately they only lived until the river froze...

I can't get over the former royal goblins' names. Onol Glazeplayed the king and Ocda Swallowpeak the queen consort. His whole love-life is fantastic. Snodub Seducefloods: divorced. Kogsak Postshafts: divorced. Momuz Armdaggers: hell no. Ocda Swallowpeak: til death

THE GOBLIN KING IS DEAD! An unfortunate mining accident caused his rooms to flood and the ceiling to collapse. He was washed into the underworld, set on fire, and had his head kicked off by a demon. Dwarf Queen Mosus has seized power from the goblins! Now we must fortify our valley!

I didn't always understand the danger of Forgotten Beasts. In an early fort this web slinging glass humanoid found the huge gap in my defenses and stormed up the stairs. There are over 100 dwarfs stacked up in front of it. That moody one went berserk and axed ~15 by himself.

THE GOBLIN KING HAS ARRIVED! He even likes his new bedroom in the deepest, safest mine! He doesn't seem bothered by the blood and goo everywhere, or the nearly molten walls, or the mysterious hatch next to his bed. He's not happy with his tomb yet... even though it's the size of hell.

I just learned from a diamond encrusted adamantine puzzle box that my dwarves' drunkard goblin King has been ruling for 300 years. It's time to attract him to the new center of our civilization and feed him to the demons.

I like to keep a were-alarm around. This time it happens to be a were-squirrel. He transformed next to my fort, seemed confused by all the dwarves around him, transformed back, and stepped into a cage trap. Now he sits at the bottom of the river, endlessly signaling the full moon.

This is Basement Psycho™. He drained the blood of 3 other dwarves, was caught red handed, and locked away for 2 years. The desire to craft possessed him and he went insane. Now he's part of the dungeon décor and kept healthy by the other dwarves. He shall remain for many more years...

Mining down to adamantine is dangerous work. Sometimes a dwarf gets caught by the edge of magma and slowly burns to death. Other times they simply disappear until their obsidian tomb is cracked open by their fellow miners. And then there are the twisted beasts... #dwarffortress

I'm so used to playing at 12fps after the first few years. My dwarves get A LOT of downtime with cavern dwellers turned off. It's the happiest fort I've had in a while. It made finding the oddly upset vampire(?) surprisingly easy. Raging about your recent murder, eh? In chains you go! #dwarffortress

Ms Werelizard Liaison,
Next time you kill the trade caravan pack animals and the visiting performers, please be considerate of the local dwarves and do it closer to the stockpiles.
Thank you,

The final state of Phrasebells with a monument to the rebirth of The Cavernous Gold civilization. I might come back but for now this civ needs another fort! A better designed one that doesn't turn the courtyard into a shooting gallery when goblins get onto the giant steps...

The years of war are taking a heavy toll. It's been at least 3 years since I've seen a trade wagon or any migrants. My population is dwindling. Retiring and adding a second fortress to the civ might be the best option. I've only played for 315 hours. Cut me some slack. #dwarffortress

If it isn't clear, the dwarf gov I chose is at war with some local goblins and maybe some humans. This gov had ten citizens and zero sites left. I'm trying to rebuild it and in the process claim a beautiful region nearly enclosed by mountains. #dwarffortress

Fps is slowly increasing! Turning off cavern invasions is probably letting the forgotten beasts finally put a dent in them. I thought FBs were broken because I hadn't seen a single one. I'm probably just going to leave cavern invasions off. The fun stuff shows up and the game runs. #dwarffortress

Change of plans. Turns out almost 900 dwellers are dragging my fps down. Now I'm releasing fully kitted invaders into the caverns. They can leave if they can make it through the horde. #dwarffortress

The attacks from goblins are relentless. I've been capturing them and stripping off their gear. I was using them for training but I started releasing them into the caverns to fend for themselves after I realized the only thing they had left were tears.

Dwarf Fortress Fun: A child went insane, murdered a new mother, and turned her bones into a gauntlet. Her infant, which she was carrying at the time, is now wandering aimlessly around the fort. Luckily the other dwarves occasionally give the baby food or drop off a bucket of water.
