− | + | Engraving encompasses both smoothing stone and engraving it. Both jobs are accessed from the [d]esignations menu, and require the Stone Detailing [[labor]] to be turned on. | |

− | Engravings | + | A [[wall]] that has already been smoothed can be engraved on. Engravings increase [[dwarf]] [[happiness]], raise the [[value]] of a [[room]] and provide a record of the [[history]] of your fort. [[Fortification]]s cannot be engraved on. A [[masterwork]] engraving that is destroyed or defaced ([[magma]] and [[goblins]] do the job nicely) may cause the [[engraver]] to [[tantrum]]. |
− | + | Engravers are inspired by the history of your fort and will use them in the engraving. Like when your [[axedwarf]] bravely held a crucial part of the fort and slew some [[goblin]]s, your engravers can make a picture of it. | |
− | + | Engravings can be viewed by pressing 'k', moving the cursor over the engraved area, using the + or - keys to move down to the engraving and pressing enter. [[Adventurer]]s are also able to view these by revisiting your old fortress. The art and the story behind the engraving, will show up in the [[legends]] mode. | |
