Revision as of 12:54, 1 September 2008

Justice is dealt by your Sheriff (later Captain of the guard) or the Hammerer.

Only metal cages can, and only metal restraints should be set to be used for justice, as jails. Your sheriff will use them to cage criminals.

The current number of ropes or chains "needed" is indicated on the z Status menu, under the Justice submenu. The number of them required is one-tenth the current population, rounded down to the nearest integer. Not meeting this number currently seems to have no negative effects[Verify].

Crimes

  • Building destruction - destroying a building during a tantrum.
  • Disorderly conduct - brawling while throwing a tantrum.
  • Violation of work order - a dwarf is punished if you ignore a noble's mandate.
  • Vandalism - toppling furniture or doors during a tantrum.
  • Murder - killing a fellow dwarf or a tame animal.

Punishment

  • X days imprisonment - the sheriff or fortress guard haul the dwarf off to a restraint to serve a jail sentence
  • Beating - the sheriff or fortress guard attack the dwarf unarmed for a short time - this punishment is used instead of imprisonment if the jail is full
  • Hammering - the Hammerer beats the dwarf with a war hammer, causing death or serious injury

Psychology

Crime and justice affects dwarven psychology by generating Thoughts.

  • A dwarf who smashes property during a tantrum will receive a happy thought, in fact, this is a contributor to why he eventually 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 mandate will get a happy thought if it is completed, or an unhappy thought if the worker goes free due to insufficient jail items.
