'''Engraver''' is the skill used to [[smooth]] or [[engrave]] rocks, as well as to carve a [[fortification]] into a smoothed wall. The skill of the engraver does not affect the quality of smoothed tiles, but does affect the quality of engraved tiles. It is a good idea to train engravers by having them smooth large areas before engraving anything.

Engraving is a good way to build up the [[attribute]]s: strength, agility and toughness.  Smoothing improves your fortress, doesn't consume resources, doesn't create garbage and builds experience very quickly at the higher skill levels.

However, if engraving is a [[dwarf]]'s highest skill, and that dwarf enters and completes a [[strange mood]], then the dwarf will reach legendary status in engraving, instead of in one of the more valuable skills that are harder to train.
