Are you sure this wasn't just the corpse that gave rise to the ghost? |
|
|
Not sure how he would mistake the corpse for the ghost, and yeah, what the heck on the ghost drowning? As usual, do you have the save? I don't have a mac myself though. |
|
|
My guess is that the dwarf's profession name changed from Peasant (or whatever) to Ghost before the corpse was found, making the announcement misleading. |
|
|
I agree with Footkerchief. However, it is about time Toady change this characteristic. This happens all over the game. Nothing more strange and hilarious than being killed by a beekeeper mummy. Professions shouldn't be titles (although we are entering in suggestions territory here) |
|
|
Assuming my above explanation is correct, the rest is Suggestions territory. |
