Large numbers of tame animals can also prevent PHM from rebelling. The best way of controlling PHM with limited dwarfpower is to pasture them nearby a major pathway, making sure that they can see all the dwarves that pass by. Killing rebellious PHM has a chance of starting a loyalty cascade. However, they may choose to attack one on their own if it had been seen killing someone (the ones with names are the ones that made a kill). Soldiers will not obey direct orders to kill a rebellious PHM that is now docile. Trying to contain PHM behind walls to prevent gang attacks is a risky strategy - if they don't see any non-PHM creature for a while, they will rebel entirely and may rush the door the moment it is opened. Rebellious PHM cannot be contained reliably by a far-off pasture, because they have a small chance of randomly going berserk. PHM can pick locks - forbidding doors will not control them. This will generate miasma, causing bad thoughts. Rebellious PHM living for a long time underground have a small chance of inflicting necrosis on themselves. Sometimes rebelling PHM will attack each other. Nearby creatures may be attacked even if they were not the actual target. Once a group of PHM decide to attack, they do so by going berserk. Creatures who fight can intimidate up to 5 PHM at once, so they will usually not be attacked unless they are greatly outnumbered. PHM cannot tell one species from another, but they can tell if the creature had been in a fight within the last year and did not run away. This effect lasts for half a year after the rebellion actually starts. Rebelling PHM can sometimes drain blood from sleeping creatures like vampires. Rebelling PHM will not be intimidated by unconscious or sleeping creatures. They will usually not attack unless they outnumber their opponents. Rebelling PHM will be intimidated by nearby creatures. It takes them about 1-2 weeks to figure out that they are the majority. If they realize that they are the majority, they will rebel. PHM will do a headcount of all non-PHM creatures in the immediate area. If you're not careful, they may attain the majority so fast that you won't be able to bring down their numbers quickly enough. PHM can have between 1-10 children at a time, averaging 5 per female.
