A thirsty dwarf prefers to drink [[booze]]. If none is available, they will go to the nearest [[water]] source and drink. This is usually a [[well]] inside your fortress, but they will drink from a [[river]] or [[brook]] if there are no wells nearby, and have been observed to drink from [[murky pool]]s if there are no other sources of water. A dwarf can live on water indefinitely if there is no booze to be had, but their speed and thus efficiency at work and in combat will suffer - dwarves are highly dependent on alcohol. | A thirsty dwarf prefers to drink [[booze]].

A [[rest|resting]] dwarf will not do anything on their own until they have recovered from recent injuries (preferably inside a [[hospital]]), and will depend on others to provide them with food and drink. They will not be given booze but receive water carried in [[bucket]]s. | A [[rest|resting]] dwarf will not do anything on their own until they have recovered from recent injuries (preferably inside a [[hospital]]), and will depend on others to provide them with food and drink.
