'''Drunks''' are found in [[adventure mode]] often hanging out in drinking mounds in dwarven [[hillock]]s. They are usually [[dwarf|dwarves]] who spend much of their time consuming copious amounts of [[alcohol]]. They will join your adventurer no matter what as long as they can get a share of your [[Fun|glory]]. Drunks are prized for their ability to tie up large crowds of [[Creature|monster]]s and take the brunt of their [[Combat#Damage|attack]]s, while the adventurer and their more skilled cohorts move in for precision strikes.

This is the normal state for [[Dwarf|dwarves]]. Whenever possible, dwarves will attempt to remain at least partially inebriated; being even the slightest bit tipsy can increase a dwarf's efficiency and productivity, and the effect appears to be directly proportional to the amount of alcohol consumed. Being sober for too long can induce periods of melancholy, self-reflection, and depression. Dwarves deprived of alcohol have reported remembering traumatic childhood events, such as the breaking of their first [[Finished goods|toy anvil]], their first encounter with [[miasma]], or the time Papa Urist was torn limb from limb by [[elephant]]s in the fortress foyer.

Most dwarves are not particularly choosy about the kind of hooch they ingest, but over time, some dwarves will begin to favor wine over beer; these dwarves are likely to one day rise to [[Nobles|nobility]], where snobbish behavior is expected and rewarded. Even dwarven nobles strive to remain as drunk as possible. Many is the merchant who has left a fortress with a [[Trading|trade agreement]] that was scrawled by a completely smashed [[baron]] whose speech was slurred so badly that no consonants were heard during the entire negotiation. In these situations, the dwarves tend to come out ahead, because there are very few merchants willing to deny a good bargain to a reeling, bearded maniac with more weapons than brain cells.
