For years one of my best fighters, a militia captain and hammer lord, has been giving biting demonstrations in my barracks. Not like once in a while, but almost constantly while on training duty, just sitting down with his squad and showing them how hard he can bite.
Whenever i'd see it, i'd sigh and wish he’d teach my dwarves something more useful, something that can get them out of a scrap more serious than a wrestling match.
Then a forgotten beast slips into my fortress and starts deleting dwarves with bursts of flame on its way to the heart of my fort. Just as i’m convincing myself that yeah, no it’s ok it’s been a good run but i slipped up and this weird living flame octopus is going to murder everyone. It reaches the dining hall level, storms up the ramp and runs into my militia captain who bites it in half from full health in a single attack, killing it dead. He then left to go get a drink.
