I know somebody who lost all his fortress to some deadly beast that i can not remember the name of, all his military dead, all his workers dead, then a cook threw his mittens at the beast, and killed it.
What i am trying to say is, use cooks to fight of badgers
One time this pregnant dwarf was in a bad mood because her husband died, and this guy (player) tried to keep her happy because she had like a bunch of legendary stats.
Then, he orders to dig out a place under a lake, she decides to help out and falls down the pit. But right before she hits and ground the baby comes out. The baby is unharmed and the mother is dead. He decides it's not worth it so he closed the pit up and never saw it in three years.
He comes back in 3 years to find the baby is
still alive. He survived off of the water and the rats scurrying around.
He grows up to be farmer with 5 kids.
The end.
