Yeah, I sometimes wonder if we should do a historian LP at some point, just spend time dicking around in a world learning its history - no forts, just adventurers, maps and stories from legends.

I could take a bash at turning a DF map into something more realistic, and then we would be able to link places and people to locations on a map, track their movements and see how good a world DF has really generated.

People of a more violent bent could go around collecting artifacts from the past as well, as well as giving a fitting end to the various badasses.

I would be super up for this... Well, once I've done my final Uni assessment. :C

Someone got attacked by a tree? Man, I really need to keep up with Dwarf Fortress, I didn't know the vegetation could be aggressive. And I'm afraid to know how it got the poor victim coated in sand.

It threw half of its branches at him in a cowardly sneak attack. He escaped unharmed, but the resulting walk to the well to wash off must have chafed something fierce.

Ah, so somebody cut the tree down and/or mined out its roots, and it promptly fell on them (along with some sand)? Yeah, I've done that before... :D
