The Diplomat is a noble position responsible for acts of diplomacy. In the current version, it is not possible to assign a dwarf to this position, nor will one ever migrate to your fortress.

Diplomats from other civilisations tend to arrive at roughly the same time as their civilizations' caravans once certain criteria have been satisfied. Each diplomat will attempt to attend a meeting with your leader. They will typically follow your leader around, waiting for an opportunity to discuss your situation. Your leader will need to perform the "Conduct Meeting" job, sometimes for quite a while, to satisfy the visiting diplomat. If the diplomat goes without meeting for a long period of time (or your mayor is re-elected or is taken by a Template:L), he or she will leave and you will get a screen informing you "Diplomat Stymied: A diplomat has left unhappy".

Template:L diplomats will ask you to limit your tree-cutting to a specific number, generally around one hundred. If you agree to this concession, it will track the number of Template:L jobs you complete during the year. (The current number is visible on the Civilizations (c) screen, in the form X/Y where X is how many more trees you're allowed to cut, and Y is the total number agreed upon.) Both above-ground and subterranean trees are counted. The agreement (and the count) remain in effect until the next year's agreement is negotiated.

Template:L diplomats (which may occasionally be Template:Ls) tend to just say "It's such a pleasant place you've carved out for yourselves..." and then leave.

If you are at Template:L with the humans or elves (possibly due to a mishap involving one of their caravans), the diplomat may offer a peace treaty.
