40d Talk:Consoler

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki

A miserable dwarf just attended a meeting with my expedition leader, who was (at best) a dabbling consoler. The miserable dwarf now has the thought "She cried on somebody in charge lately." I'm mentioning this because I didn't get "felt a little/a lot better afterwards". The leader has the normal "was cried on" thought. --Juckto 02:30, 24 May 2008 (EDT)

This happened to me today too. The exact text was "...cried on somebody in charge lately and felt better afterward." (note that there was no little/lot distinction.) Interestingly, the person she cried on had dabbling consoler skill, but was a "Normal" flatterer, and novice liar, intimidator and comedian. I suppose one of those other skills helped in this situation. (Perhaps liar/flatterer where he said something like, "there, there, I'm sure that nasty Kobold will return your masterful obsidian sword someday. He's just showing the world your amazing craftsdwarfship...")
