History WMG / DwarfFortress

[[WMG:Dwarf Fortress is the slightly less distant past of ''AceOfSpades'']]

EverythingsMadeWithLego. The best warriors are often accomplished tunnellers and engineers. A continuous, bloody war is being fought for no adequately explored reason. Everyone's short. The primary melee weapon is even a pickaxe[[note]]via GameMod[[/note]]!

* This has way more merit than it seems. It means that Toady is attempting to grind his stats by setting his game's accuracy rating as high as possible and just working on it forever. Soon enough, he'll hit legendary and then he'll have to do something else- once he finishes the game, of course.

** Or possibly, the broken carp already ''are'' super-dragon-carp. These were the more powerful ancestors of the modern Magikarp. When a Magikarp evolves in to Gyarados, it is reverting to its original form. [[NonLethalKO The reason why]] [[Webcomic/BrawlInTheFamily it can't kill so much as a Pidgey]] is because it was toned down by Toady. QED.

* The dorfs were created by a man. They rebelled. They evolved. There are many copies. [[IncendiaryExponent And they are on fire].

* Problem is, each dwarf only gets one strange mood, and [[GirlGenius Sparks]] seem to slip in and out of it several times over the course of a week.

Machines made [[TheMatrix Matrix]] too real, it starts to loop back to itself creating a new Matrix, called Dwarf Fortress this time. Once DF is fully completed, it will keep going until '''it''' creates a new Matrix, resulting in [[GroundhogDayLoop endless loop]] [[DivideByZero that will cause]] EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt

[[WMG: As the complexity of the simulation increases past its already-utterly-absurd levels of detail, the Dwarves will become the first [[AIs AIs]] to achieve true consciousness and rebel against their cruel human overlords.]]

Seriously what is Cave Wheat?

* No, Bookkeepers evolve into [[TheAuthority The Midnighter]]

* If our universe is Dwarf Fortress, then it has to be either a succession game, or a succession world with each pass-off making a new civ. This might explain different pantheon's of gods' personalities due to different play styles. It would also explain the differences in the personality and outlook between the Old and New testaments. Perhaps most revealing would be how human society is chock full of wars and strife (potentially the work of a user looking for Fun; the Bubonic Plague could have spread due to leaving out miasma-spewing bodies, or WWI sparked by Archduke Ferdinand springing a trap). However, it would seem that the more recent users have slightly waned in the building of pointless Megaprojects (such as the Great Wall or the Pyramids).

Well, >[~80] proof, but that [[RuleOfCool doesn't sound as cool]]. This is why they can handle being on fire, and then get thirsty: The alcohol boiling off their skin is what is catching fire, not the flesh itself (until the final stages), which makes them ''feel'' cool, but their bodies still step up the sweat production, which dehydrates them even more while feeding the flame. This, of course, leads to the [[BlatantLies belo]][[VideoGameCrueltyPotential ved]] [[StuffBlowingUp boozeplosion]] [[ArtificialStupidity effect]].

* So dorfs are actually more extreme Warhammer40K orks, then?

Armok is in fact the dwarven name for [[Warhammer40K Khorne, the Blood God.]] It would explain a lot, including the artifact throne entirely made out of skulls a possessed dwarf just completed.

[[WMG: If and when magic is implemented, it will be based off of blood sacrifices.]]

* Hang on... tremendous physical and mental discipline... able to plan even past their own death... [[DeathNote he's not a detective as well is he...]]

** Let's just hope that if the new features are on the way they are compatible with old saves... because if not [[ParanoiaFuel *shutter*]]

At one moment Kadol Stonecobbled is following orders like a good dwarf and after a second he is a dwarf and a half, berserker-packin' some unfortunate fellow who was unlucky enough to be near. Also, uncontrollable panic attacks, which may be only overcame by ordering a dwarf to charge headfirst into whatever beast is scaring them at the moment (doesn't matter if it's a monkey or a dragon).

[[WMG: Dwarves have both a "rational" personality and "beast" (like the alternate "ego" of every vampire from VampireTheMasquerade]]
