Oh man I’ve been waiting for a Dwarf Fortress community for so long. I don’t have any stories that happened in the game, but I do have something.
When I was first messing around with modding raws one of the first things I did was give the magma crab breath attack to kobolds and had them use it in the context of a greeting. I’m not sure if it was the culprit but every single world I made older than 25 years had an extinct kobold population. Once when I did have a world where they weren’t extinct I opened up adventure mode and went to a kobold den to see it for myself. Before I even got into the den everything was on fire and all the kobolds were running around screaming “It was inevitable.” I went to say hello to one but as soon as I sent the greeting dialogue I was interrupted by my face being replaced with a rapidly cooling chunk of magma. Best thing I’ve ever done.
I recreated the mod for the Steam release but it doesn’t hit the same without adventure mode. It’s available to download, it’s called “Kobolds Spit Magma To Say Hello.”
