| Summary | 0003110: Blood pools/splatterings/smears spontaneous apperance | ||||
| Description | 5 years ago I killed a horse. 3 years later I started getting blood out of nowhere. It spawned only above ground, and in a localized area. Dwarfs are still able to track it, and I just started getting it 14Z levels above the ground. | ||||

It was probably coating your dwarves' clothing and some rainwater washed it off. If your embark location has mostly dry weather, this might explain it. |

Others from 0000296 and its various related reports have reported that the square that a creature was killed at will still generate splatter spreading even after all squares including the origin square has been cleaned. I suspect this is the case in this report. |

The main problem was that this was 3 years after the last time I killed any wild animal or hunted at all. When I start a fortress, I start getting food mainly from fishing and hunting, when there is little threat of of enemies. Then I move to start farming and butchering as my only source. The blood in question was a deer blood pool and splatter, I had no deer on the map, none being raised, and none caged. It spawned 14 Z levels above ground, where the deer died. It was on top of a tower I was constructing at the time, and only 2 people had ever been there. The only way I can think it got there is from teleporting or spawning up there. |

I agree with Q. I've seen rain and water (long story) "create" blood puddles that then contaminate entire fortresses. |
