Description Armok is the god of Blood in dwarf Fortress. I see him as a really big armored god who punches literal darkness into submission.

Ever wonder why vampires often become nobles in dwarven realms?  Vampires drink blood, and Armok is the god of it: Armok creates deities that create vampires.

Blood is life, Armok is the creator of life, it is all connected.

Well... I think it makes sense for everyone who ever dared to dig deep enough to once stare into the darkness

I once entered hell with my dwarves. I quickly sealed it up again, though my population took a decent hit.
And then the vampire queen moved in with her entourage.

yeah... when I struck hell I... well... I didn't knew there was something such as hell before that ^^
They rushed into the fortress and I had no chance of sealing anything xD

Finding hell after you find adamantine, is like going to the dentist after eating candy.

hmm... depends on how fast you're digging. For me adamantine was an evergrowing source of fortune until i reached hell after endless times.

Niice.
Is that squirrel the embodiment of all things dark and evil, the harbinger of the end times?

Thank you!

The squirrel is what is about to become a Titan. The seed of darkness has been planted and it will grow to immense size and incredible horror.

(I don't recall ever seeing a forgotten squirrel or something about the likes, but I have no doubt some dwarves have encountered one in one of the many dwarf worlds that exists.)
