DWARF FORTRESS MODDING COMPETITION: MUTANT DWARVES


Make a dwarf.
Make it a mutant. Make it cool. Don't make it a Teenage Mutant Ninja Antlion.
It has to be usable during fortress mode, meaning it doesn't obliterate everything in its path.
It needs to be killable.

We'll settle who wins with a poll.

Go.

Well, that ends my chances.

I made my dwarves never need alcohol. That makes them monsters, right?

How do you edit dwarves? I'd always wanted to try this, but could never figure it out.

Make one with four arms and two heads. I'll play the ♥♥♥♥ out of that.

I don't understand why giving it multiple legs changes it more than giving it multiple arms

Changing it from humanoid to something else?
Really, I'd only allow additions to the structure, like wings or fins or stuff. But that's just me.

Mine seems to be coming along terribly.

It needs to be humanoid. That's my point.

Alright, I changed my mind. Make one with five arms, so that I can pin people by their four limbs and still punch them in the teeth. Pretty please with sugar on top?

Yeah, that's fine.

You can also feel free to have your dwarves excrete poison, or even steam.

Just make sure it doesn't incinerate anything it touches, because then it wouldn't really work out in fortress mode.


Basically: Keep it a dwarf.
It needs to have a beard, be able to stand straight up, and drink alcohol.

I was trying to mod my dwarves to be made out of adamantine.

Its harder then it sounds.

Can a mutant dwarf have a exoskeleton?

Post subject:  Re: Dwarf Fortress Modding Competition: Mutant Dwarves

As long as it can still have a beard, sure.

>Must be able to function as a dwarf.
>If DF were struck with a a giant meteorite, you might see these kinds of dwarves living 5 million years later.

I'm making some rather... interesting changes to mine.
When I'm done, I'll package up all the files I changed (creature_standard, and the body one). We don't need to be sending the entire region/raws, really.

Initial testing:

Humanoid? And here I was making a big ass black scorpion, with four pincers, a huge extremely poisonus stinger (makes you go blind and bleed from you eyes and then rotts your brain) AND it drools liquid fire (napalm-ish)...

... But she then died of brain rot...
