Summary 0005058: Wiglaf regenerates
Description Currently the only dwarves in crawl (other than Wiglaf) are deep dwarves, who don't regenerate. Wiglaf is a dwarf, but regenerates. This is inconsistent and confusing. I see three options:

1. Make him a little fat man.
2. Make him a proper deep dwarf.
3. Mention that he is some other kind of dwarf in his description.

I prefer option 1.

 "Previously believed to be another kind of dwarf, it turns out he's just a little fat man wearing a stupid-looking hat."?

 Note that, going by the mountain dwarf description currently in trunk (dat/descript/monsters.txt), the few mountain dwarves that survived the war with the hill orcs were exiled to foreign lands. Why not make him a mountain dwarf (since he's effectively one anyway, due to his regeneration) that returned from exile looking for revenge? That would explain his Okawaru worship, as well as his accent.

 dolorous: sounds like a wonderful idea!

What would a fitting mission for a champion of a war god who prefers epic one-man tasks be? Let's see... avenging the expulsion of his kin.

Done so. My wording of the new description sucks, but I hope someone can improve it.
