Tunmemad, or Doorreins, started as a simple colony just over a decade ago. And now? It's the mountainhome! Sure, there were some problems.

But we're better for having gone through them.

They say every dark cloud has a silver lining.

So while we may get rained on quite a lot, we get to see some of the most beautiful things when it's over.

After all, rainbows only come after the rain. So let it pour!

Where will they be in ten more years, when we're living in bliss beneath the earth, surrounded by unimaginable wealth?

When we're perfecting our skills, honing our blades, forging the perfect defense?

They'll be rotting away in a dirty pit, sharing a bed with a blind cave ogre, waiting for the first opportunity to die at our hands. An honor they won't receive.

Because we're dwarves. We are the children of the mountains, born to weather the eternal storm that the one called Armok started infinite eternities ago. So maybe we don't have the natural affinities of the elves, or the eternal lives of the goblins, or the reach of the humans.

I think we were put here for a different reason. You can't expect iron to glitter the same as gold, you know. Nor will granite throw dazzles of light like a diamond.

I repeat.

So I added an argument that guarantees at least one skill will be of a level you specify and gave it a whirl with Proficient, the max for any skill in normal embark prep. The first proper output I got gave me this:

Which was more or less what I expected. The Peasant one piqued my interest, though, since that meant he’d didn’t have any capital-L Labor skills at all.

Lo and behold:

Perfect. They were sending a musician to be help establish a dwarven outpost. This was more or less exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for.

Of course, that still left 5 skill points unaccounted for. They happened to be Consoler, Reader, Logician, Observer, and by far my favorite,

Realizing with the means to dump raws I could probably keep this type of bogeyman for future modded runs... be it they wouldn't be Crumbledgrowl.
