QUESTION!!!11

When you abandon your fortress, the population joins/forms a new group.
Do they actually keep on living if I start a new fortress and play the game, say
10 years? If after the 10 year period I check one of the dwarfs with Legends viewer,
has he/she done anything?
(I made one, decided his first name was to be Dowly, hit the randomize name a few times
and got "Fondletusk" as last name.. so funny..)

I'm guessing the answer is "no" as you can reclaim fortresses?

Same question about adventurers, if I make one and retire him, does the AI take
over? Say, if the place he retired to gets attacked, does he take part in the fighting?


As for the game itself, I'm still in awe, reading the history of my world, amazing.

Which actually raises another question, again related to how persistent the world is.
Say, I read that there has been a night creature in the area I have settled into,
and the history indicates that it is still alive. Is there a chance that I might encounter
it at some point? Do figures travel to the area I am in from outside the local map?

EDIT: Guess I could just ask: How "living" is the world around you?
