Dwarves will get unhappy if their friends and loved ones are left to rot, and so the best thing to do it to summarily dump all corpses into the magma for a proper burial at sea. You can still build coffins for the dead and place them, relations won't grieve for a properly disposed of corpse, and the coffins will be marked with the names of the dearly departed who have gone to rejoin the one true heart of the mountains.

My dwarves plaster the vicinity around a dwarfs' coffin with their clothing for no apparent reason. Why do they bring it there, and why do they leave it there? --[[User:Corona688|Corona688]] 00:32, 2 November 2008 (EDT) | My dwarves plaster the vicinity around a dwarfs' coffin with their clothing for no apparent reason.

: I did notice that after [[Unfortunate accident|accidentally]] killing a noble, his rooms were reclaimed, but since he still owned a Tomb all his clothing and owned goods were moved to the Tomb by the cleanup crew. Is this what you're talking about? --[[User:Jellyfishgreen|Jellyfishgreen]] 11:09, 13 February 2009 (EST) | : I did notice that after [[Unfortunate accident|accidentally]] killing a noble, his rooms were reclaimed, but since he still owned a Tomb all his clothing and owned goods were moved to the Tomb by the cleanup crew.

| − | ::Better late than never. Dwarves do not really seem to distinguish between different types of held rooms. Discounting containers (i.e., if the dwarf owns no chests or cabinet) they're just as likely to scatter things around an owned tomb, office, dining room, zoo, etc., as they are around their bedroom. One time, a record keeper decided to reserve his "meager office" in the dining room by leaving his pants on the chair. Giving each and every dwarf a personal chest and cabinet will usually all but eliminate that sort of thing. At least until the economy kicks in, and they start acquiring all kinds of garbage. And if you minted coins, you're screwed | + | ::Better late than never. Dwarves do not really seem to distinguish between different types of held rooms.

Is there a happiness penalty (or at least, a different one than usual) if a dwarf dies of old age? --[[User:Loyal|Loyal]] 15:28, 4 January 2010 (EST) | Is there a happiness penalty (or at least, a different one than usual) if a dwarf dies of old age? --[[User:Loyal|Loyal]] 15:28, 4 January 2010 (EST) | ||
:Yes - in my earliest successful fort, the King died of old age, and the Queen Consort "lost a spouse to tragedy lately". --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 22:31, 4 January 2010 (UTC) | :Yes - in my earliest successful fort, the King died of old age, and the Queen Consort "lost a spouse to tragedy lately". --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 22:31, 4 January 2010 (UTC) | ||
