I am extremely good at Dwarf Fortress.

snarpCheck out my latest embark site!
Conveniently located next to hell! This'll make it really easy to train up my militia!
There's even a second portal to hell over to the west, in case the first one gets blocked or something.
And I have so many new friends.
They just look like they're having so much fun down there.
Unfortunately the framerate is far too slow for me to actually do anything here; I let it sit for five minutes, and my miners had managed two steps towards the place I told them to start digging. I also had to turn off cave-ins, as apparently my hellmouths are not very structurally sound, and the alerts were never-ending.
(When I examined a Demon of Steam, I got this description: "A huge blob composed of steam. It has wings and it undulates rhythmically.
It is average in size."
I... am afraid that I do not know exactly what qualifies as "average" in this situation.)

Here is the site in question. It's only classed as "Wilderness." When I tried to reclaim it just now it was full of fishpeople, with all the demons gone. The FPS was still so bad it was unusable; very sad.
