This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Skill: Organizer

Profession Administrator
Job Title Administrator

Tasks
  • Manage Work Orders

Attributes
  • Analytical Ability
  • Creativity
  • Social Awareness


The organizer skill is used by some military dwarves, by managers (an appointed noble position), and by scholars. Higher skill reduces the time taken for:

  • military dwarves to organize training
  • the Manager to manage work orders in the Manager menu

Because the organizer skill is trained when leading military demonstrations, you may find that a lot of your soldiers with no civilian skills become Administrators during downtime.

The organizer skill is also used by scholars when thinking about history topics (see table, below).
