My advisor is my least happy dwarf in my entire fortress, probably partially due to the fact that her Thoughts and Preferences page doesn't contain any preferences (and not helped by the fact that she currently demands a glitched "item in Bedroom" which is impossible to fulfill). If I kill her off, will a new one arrive to replace her, or will she be gone for good (and good riddance, too)? Incidentally, her thoughts/preferences page lists her as the outpost liaison for my current civilization (the one from which the King arrived). --Quietust 03:47, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

  • Further research revealed that all dwarves created during worldgen have no preferences, and an old save file revealed that my advisor was, in fact, my outpost liaison. --Quietust 22:15, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
  • My current fortress also had my Liaison arrive as the Advisor. Perhaps this is a guaranteed behavior? --Quietust 21:14, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
Correct, AFAIK. The Outpost Liason is "promoted" to Advisor when the King moves in. Makes sense, in that the Liason's job in your earlier stages of development is to be the...well, liason between the King/Queen and your settlement. Once the King moves in and your site is the new capital, there's nowhere for the Liason to go.RedKing 21:03, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
  • Shouldn't then the advisor be the liason of the other fortresses? Or do they don't get caravans?
