A soaper is a dwarf who creates soap from tallow and lye at the Alchemist's laboratory. This is one of the least useful roles in the fortress. At present soap has no better effect than a handmade block and typically makes a poor choice for trade goods. While soap is the best way to get value out of megabeast fat (admit it, a block of Hydra or Dragon soap is just cool, and very valuable!), any dwarf can be assigned the task and yield the same result since soap has no quality modifier; the only difference is faster producing. Therefore soapers are typically excellent candidates to be drafted into the military or full-time hauling duty, or otherwise re-trained in another profession.
