This article is about an older version of DF.

Justice is dealt by your Template:L (later Template:L) or the Template:L.

Only metal Template:L and Template:L can be set to be used for justice, as Template:L. Your police force (be it the Template:L or the Template:L and his Template:L) will use them to contain criminals.

The current number of cages/restraints suggested is indicated on the z Status menu, under the Justice tab. That number is one-tenth (10%) the current population, rounded down. Not meeting this number does not cause any negative Template:L or other instabilities, it is merely a rough estimation of what would be required if things get out of control.

Crimes

Punishment

Note, that if the criminal is wounded at the time of the sentence is issued, the punishment will be delayed, until he is healthy again.

  • X days imprisonment - the sheriff or fortress guard haul the dwarf off to a Template:L to serve his sentence
  • Beating - the sheriff or fortress guard attacks the dwarf unarmed 10 times
  • Hammering - the Template:L beats the dwarf with a Template:L, resulting in serious injury or death

Template:L

Crime and justice affects dwarven psychology by generating Template:Ls.

  • A dwarf who smashes property during a Template:L will receive a happy thought. This is a major factor in how a dwarf becomes happy enough to stop tantrumming.
  • A dwarf who commits a crime, particularly violates a work order, will receive a happy thought if there are not enough jail items to imprison him.
  • A noble who makes a Template:L will get a happy thought if it is completed, or an unhappy thought if the worker goes free due to insufficient jail items.
  • A dwarf receives an incredibly happy thought upon being released from prison ("is happy to be free"), usually enough to make them ecstatic no matter how many negative thoughts they have accumulated.
