Nobles are dwarves appointed to special positions of privilege and/or responsibility in your fortress. They can make {{L|demand}}s and set {{L|mandate}}s which get in the way of the running of your fort, but can also serve vital managerial roles.

Appointed nobles are chosen by the player. There are certain social skills that are relevant for each appointed noble's job, and not all dwarves will gain experience in a given skill. In fact, some dwarves will never gain experience in certain skills. This is determined by each dwarf's personal traits, and it is therefore important to select the dwarf with the appropriate set of traits for each position:

This article is about an older version of DF.

Nobles are dwarves appointed to office and rule over your fortress. They can make demands and set mandates which get in the way of the running of your fort, and get upset that other dwarves have nice rooms, but can also serve vital managerial roles.

Needs[edit]

Below are the room demands made by each Position. For details on Room values see: Room. It also lists the number of chests, cabinets, weapon racks, and armor stands they demand. Finally it shows the max number of demands and mandates they can issue at any given point.

Notes[edit]

This shows various notes for each position taken from the raws.

  • # - lists whether one or more dwarves can have this position. Duke/Count/Baron don't have a number listed, but each fortress can only have one.
  • Squad - Lists the number and type of dwarf that this position leads
  • Spouse - Is this noble's spouse also considered a noble?
  • Heir - Is this individual replaced by an heir when they die?
  • Appointed By - Which position appoints this person initially? Note that the player actually controls all appointments via the noble screen; this is, in effect, only which dwarf is necessary before the player can make the appointment.
  • Replaced By - What position replaces this one?
  • Elected - Is this dwarf elected?
  • Lazy - If this dwarf is lazy they won't do any regular work aside from pulling levers, deconstructing walls, and some other things. In all 0.31.xx versions, this appears to be broken - lazy nobles can still be assigned to perform any labor.
  • Immunity - Immune dwarves aren't punished for any crimes.
  • Econ Exempt - These dwarves don't need money to pay for goods or rooms after the Economy arrives.
  • Military Screen Only - This position is only listed on the military screen.
  • Jealous - These dwarves will become upset if "lesser" dwarves have better rooms than they do. They don't have to see the rooms to become upset, since they somehow just know such rooms exist.

Appointed Nobles Selection[edit]

Appointed nobles are chosen by the player. There are certain social skills that are relevant for each appointed noble's job, and not all dwarves will gain experience in a given skill. In fact, some dwarves will never gain experience in certain skills. This is determined by each dwarf's personal traits, and it is therefore important to select the dwarf with the appropriate set of traits for each position:

Bugs[edit]

Nobles appointed by the Duke, Count, or Baron cannot be manually assigned, and they never immigrate to your fortress - as a result, it is not possible to get a dungeon master, tax collector, or hammerer without modifying the raws.

Nobles may have impossible demands, like cardinal leather items (although this is not necessarily a bug. After all, dwarves are stupid).
