| This article is about an older version of DF. |
Skulls can be obtained from the Template:Ls of dead Template:L and as a by-product of Template:L. Most creatures have one skull, but some have none and others have Template:L.
Skulls can be processed into Template:Ls at the Template:L.
Unlike Template:L or Template:L, dwarves never request skulls for Template:Ls.
For totems, the Template:L of the original animal is very important. Like all creature byproducts, the skull value is scaled by the Template:L of the creature.

In the current version of Dwarf Fortress, skulls are somewhat easy to shatter. Lucky head-punches can slay even your greatest dwarfs.
There are many a myth regarding the unique structure of a dwarven skull, in that it is paper thin. Logical dwarven philosophers and religious philosophers disagree.
The logical group group attributes that the reason a dwarf has such a weak skull is also why the beard is so strong; as dwarves cannot physically sit down, kneel or lean they're mostly upright their entire life. This caused a gradual change throughout the early generations as gravity brought the skull plating down from their heads into their beards.
The other group theorises that when the First Mountain King of the dwarves was shot out of Armok's vagina, he plummeted from the sky many z levels high. The fetus smashed into the ground, head first. This also explains the dwarves... peculiar mental state.
