Dwarf Fortress

Dwarf Fortress

Giant Ravens killed my chickens and noone cared!
Like the title said. Three named giant ravens where out for the hunt and one chased a dog puppy into my mountainhome. He easily killed the two wardogs and was in the middle of the meeting area.

At the same time i had a chicken explosion because i didnt paid attention to them. So the whole fort was overrun by baby chicks. The giant raven started to kill the chicks, he flew even into the chicken coop and killed all the adults ones. All while my dwarf did their normal days work. Chicken blood and dead chicks everywhere. A panicked giant raven trying to escape the dwarven halls. Ignoring dwarves and cats.. straight going for dogs and chickens. And my dwarves didnt give a ♥♥♥♥, Literally. I inspected them and there it was... Urist McApa thetic was unmoved by seeing dead chick.... all of them... All the dwarves just didnt give a ♥♥♥♥.

They didnt care at all.

Also that was one chick and dog racist raven. He is still alive.. escaped after a while into the wild again. Never attacked again.


Great game. Would embark on a murder of giant ravens again 10/10.

I like to station a couple trained war dogs in the same pasture as my chickens/ducks/turkeys so that they can protect my eggs.

Life is hard for animals in a dorf fort. All my hunting dogs were mangled by mischievous gray langur monkeys. The dwarves didn't notice until their corpses started stinking up the main stairwell.

im sorry mate but you need to sort it out, giant ravens shouldn't be able to fly right into your fortress, kill some doggos and then absolutely destroy a chicken knowingly mocking you

Yeah... i mean.. i didnt know they could open doors.... They are birds. I was as shocked as anyone would be.

So now i have a dedicated anti-ginat-raven squad. But those sly beasts somehow now know iam prepared and havnt bothered me since then.

Maybe it was just an undying hate of chicken? And the dogs were only collateral damage.

I know they wait and watch. Mocking me with their mere presence.
