− | There are several situations | + | There are several situations where a dwarf will commit actual '''suicide'''. The classic example is a [[liaison]] that is locked in and forgotten during a [[meeting]], resulting in [[insanity]] and melancholy. He or she will proceed to a swift end in your [[magma]] pool, [[river]] or a [[cliff]]. If no suitable spot can be found, she will fling herself into your one-z-level moat, to no avail, and die in there of thirst and hunger. The same can happen to one of your own dwarves, for example when they fail to finish their artifact. |
Another less obvious case of suicide is the husband or wife that suspiciously dies at the same time as the partner. A dwarf who dies of old age will be announced as such: "died of old age" but the spouse will silently go "missing" - a sure sign that something is fishy. | Another less obvious case of suicide is the husband or wife that suspiciously dies at the same time as the partner.
