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. #dwarffortress

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. #dwarffortress

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

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! #dwarffortress

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

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 #dwarffortress

My favorite kind of werebeast. The average sized one that everyone ignores #dwarffortress

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! #dwarffortress

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. 1/3 #dwarffortress

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. #dwarffortress

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. #dwarffortress

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. #dwarffortress

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... #dwarffortress

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
