We need a giant purple statue in honor of root. We need a giant purple stature garden. After all, Root is the perfect dwarf role model, and would be great for military propaganda.

Oh god wow. At least that's all of the beasts dealt with. Os's syndrome is horrible though, poor Root :(

And those kids too.

I had this syndrome once.

Doesn't seem to spread through anything but direct bites though. Don't know if that's how diseases work, because the spread might be allocated randomly as far as I know, but after all my warriors who got bit died, the disease pretty much vanished.

I doubt you've had this syndrome. As I've said before, forgotten beasts are completley randomized. This includes their syndromes. The odds of you having a syndrome identical to this one when they are all randomized is absurdly low. You probably just had a highly similar one.

I know it doesn't spread through bites becuase Os didn't bite anyone. The disease was connected to the vapor he spewed when he was damaged.

Probably. The entire Blister -> Rotting thing is the same, plus the miasma bursts, but as you said they are randomised. Perhaps those are the only things that're the same.

Wow. That is a serious train wreck.

And in my defense you'd be drunk too if your already bad life suddenly got that much worse.
Just pray she doesn't want to have another child ;)

Edit: Just noticed that she considers this minor injuries...

There's no keeping a good dwarf down...

You know, when Root was in the hospital, Vallshan spent the entire time sitting next to her bed. Make of that what you will.

And, somewhere, most likely in the mess all behind a table of empty cups, sits CloggedDonkey. He's probably calling the soldiers wimps for not getting over the miasma already.

Root doesn't need eyes to see. She's like daredevil only short, fat and covered in blood.

IDEA!

Lets launch the dwarves leaking miasma into the goblin hoards via catapult!

A bunch of blind, sick goblins would then not be able to do much against my crossbow and our catapults!

There is no way this plan could go wrong.

Here's all the soldiers that I believe have earned custom titles.



Mythical Mile of Combat is my favorite. Sounds like the title to a bad action movie,

I can see no other possible outcome.

Some of those are almost sentences. Wiredoctrines the Cross Grove is my favorite, it sounds like they're creating a cult of Ents.
