Fisher berries are easier to get hold of than alpaca cheese, though.

Every dwarf has a huge list of personal abilities and preferences, which affect what decisions they make and how good they are at things. (Well, some of them do, some are irrelevant in practice.) They also have moods which are affected by their situation and also their abilities and preferences - so if you have a poor aesthetic sensibility, you don't get a lot out of looking at artwork for instance (I'm guessing that one but it sounds believable).

I've renamed all the dwarves in the fort, but these are the in-game thoughts and preferences of each one. If I have some Fisher Berries in my food stocks, and Fractionman eats them, he will be a happy dwarf
It's a shame you didn't sustain any wounds in that fight with the wolverine, or you'd have some scars listed here.

Is this randomly generated for each character or seeded by their name?
See, I'm beginning to get interested - that's why I try to avoid these intricate indie games - I lost a lot of the noughties to them...

As a guess, I imagine I would be fond of drink and industry.

They're random. Sometimes you get really awesome ones, like the extremely muscular, agile dwarf who loved a good thrill and rarely procrastinated in my last fortress. He was my star axedwarf and was always first to the fightIs this randomly generated for each character or seeded by their name?

The Lean Rim is the (randomly generated) name of the branch of dwarven civilization represented by the members of the fortress. All the dwarves in this (randomly generated) world are members of The Bells of Thinning, but Dwarves who live in Bouldergloves are also members of the Lean Rim.A heavy drinker and a member of the Lean Rim, whatever that is...

They're descriptions of each and every dwarf in the whole game. They lend background and flavour, and also hint on how to please them, or what jobs they like doing.
In Skyrim the closest equivalent is the attribute scores they got rid of in order to streamline the player experience and make every single character exactly the same. Or maybe the character classe....
Oh. Yeah.
