Dwarves (gods, animals) can have relationships with each other. Making and talking to friends gives happy thoughts while the death of a pet, friend, child or spouse gives unhappy ones. Spouses can have children with each other.

The following is a list of known relationships:

  • Passing Acquaintance
  • Long-term Acquaintance
  • Friend
  • Lover
  • Grudge
  • Spouse
  • Child
  • Deity

Influences

It is unknown whether skills such as conversationalist, intimidator, pacifier, comedian, negotiator, flatterer, consoler, persuader, or judge of intent play a role in relationships, but is suspected that dwarves with vastly different personalities (such as a confident, selfless person vs a nervous-but-arrogant one) will form grudges, while dwarves with similar personalities will form friendships.
