− | + | {{l|Noble}}s are fragile, delicate, put-upon beings, burdened with responsibilities which are far more taxing than any lowly commoner could ever hope to wrap their {{l|Alcohol|booze}}-soaked brains around. However, your dear friends at Happy Fun Surprises Incorporated (or HFS Inc., for those of you who insist on abbreviation) have prepared a wide variety of {{l|Fun}} activities to help your administrators unwind. | |

Will it simply lure the duchess into an enclosed space so the unwashed masses can barricade her in and flood it? Any noble -- no matter where they happen to be -- will surely come running to the lever's location to savor the thrill of the unknown! |
Be sure to use the Workshop Profile screen to restrict the lever to the noble in need of some down time. After all, it just wouldn't do to have some filthy commoner pull it instead. | Be sure to use the Workshop Profile screen to restrict the lever to the noble in need of some down time.

Why not send them out into the darkness so they can experience these {{l|Giant cave spider|wonders}} for themselves? While your noble is out and about, make sure to keep an eye on the entryway in case any unruly commoners should attempt to wall it off. After all, what would happen if your baron got hungry, or was attacked by {{l|giant cave swallow}}s, or had his face melted by a {{l|forgotten beast}}'s venom, and there was no way for him to return to the safety of the fortress? The horror! |

Imagine the powerful and intimidating effect of a {{l|Office|throne room}} suspended over the sizzling surface of the abyssal plains! Such a throne room would befit only the greatest of nobles, of course. Common dwarves would have no place in such a suite. Therefore, be sure to build a retractable {{l|bridge}} from the shore to the throne room, with the associated {{l|lever}} placed ''inside'' the room. |

Debating psychosocial theory in front of the less-gifted working class may frighten and demoralize them. For this reason, place your {{l|Nobles|Magenta Magnates}} inside a room with plenty of seating. Once all of your people are inside, lock the door behind them while they hash out a plan. To assist in the discussion, you may wish to place a bin of {{l|Weapons|debating tools}} in the room with them. Nobles under pressure think quickly, particularly on an empty stomach. |

Maybe you should make them happy and give them some weapons, simply lay a bunch of upright spears or {{L|Trap_component#Menacing_spike|other beautiful things}} on the floor of their room and they'll come begging for more. Now, you may want to link those spears to a lever and pull it so they can actually walk around their room, remember to leave it on repeat so they'll be able to see the wonders that your {{L|Weaponsmith|weaponsmiths}} made every passing second. Just make sure they '''are'''n't in the room while the spears are in motion, or your nobles may become dwarven Swiss cheese and die before their their screams can even be heard. |
