0010639: Hunter creates bone artifact but only becomes competent in bone carving
My Hunter, who happened to have had bonecarving enabled claimed a workshop during a strange mood (possession). He then crafted a unicorn bone pick, only to reach 'Competent Bone Carver', instead of the usual Legendary status. I'm not certain what his skill level was beforehand, though all other artifacts made, including a scepter made from a different craftdwarf workshop granted legendary skill status.

(DF-hack was originally used during world gen without any changed settings, was not actively used in active fort however.)

From the gamelog:


Urvad Ardes†blel, Hunter cancels Sleep: Taken by mood.
Urvad Ardes†blel, Hunter has been possessed!

Urvad Ardes†blel, Hunter has created Avanberdan, a unicorn bone pick! He claims it as a family heirloom.
No tags attached.

Yes, possession moods don't provide skill benefits.
