Description
Ξ±"I'm doomed"
There are few natural enemies of the dwarves, but carps can be easily some of the more feared of them...
Draw by traditional means, coloured in photoshop.
Idea for the pose of the dwarf from a well know album cover of Nirvana. The extremly lethal and dwarven natural enemies carps are from Dwarf Fortress, and I worked over a photo for the background wich I manipulated -poorly- from a google image search, of this page rodtott.wordpress.com/2011/03/β¦ taken by -I think- Elena Kalis.

Carp haven't been Fortress Enemy #1 for a while now. That role has been taken over by Giant Keas. Yes, giant versions of this bird: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kea
They come in groups of 5-10 to steal everything they can from your fort and kill any dwarf that tries to stop them. Worst of all, they can fly, so unlike the carp no place is safe from them.

jeb and the carp stared, eyes deadlocked for what seemed like an eternity. Waiting for the enevitable battle to come.
but it didn't.
The carp had already had already had it's fill on some other unlucky dwarves.
Jeb was now one of the luckiest dwarves on the face of the earth

This come from a computer game, Dwarf Fortress, where you build, manage -and see how is doomed- a dwarf settlement.
Due to a glitch of the original game, Carps became to be the ultimate predator of dwarves. It seems this glitch was later patched in other versions, but it remaine as a running joke among the dwarf fortress comunity.
I never played it -tried once and didn't understood it at all-, but after much reading and browsing related art, feel like drawing that. :3

The glitch was that swimming buffed a unit's physical stats, and all carp do is swim. Do you see where this is going?
