I'm inspired by my succession fort, and so I'm going to toss around this idea as well. The idea is that this fort is a prison complex, run by prisoners. The fort must have several torture chambers (and devices), cells, and execution devices. The map will have magma and a river (with carp hopefully).
So I need some brave souls to trek out into the wilds and risk their lives instead of rotting in prison.
I need:
Nickname:
Preferred Sex:
Profession/Skills:
Prison Record/Crime:
Personality/Quirks:
Equipment:
Rules: Each dwarf gets 150 points to spend on skills and equipment. I am not naming a dwarf myself (as I tend to play favorites), so I need 7 dwarves to start. Also, each dwarf must have a skill at the no-adjective level because of the prison rehabilitation program to give each dwarf something useful to do.
I'll take applications beyond the first 7, but disregard the equipment, and give me name, personality, prison record, and preferred skills. See you at DarkCells.

My starting equipment will have 2 axes and 2 picks, and I'll fill out some stuff I feel we need (and perhaps some animals, I'm not sure yet). So don't worry about buying an axe, one will be provided.

Seems like a good group so far, I need 2 more so I can embark. I certainly hope we get a boatload of males with all the requests.

Name: Felu
Jobs: I don't remember how the points work out, so split them between mechanics, mining, and markdwarving.
Equipment: One unit of groundhog meatshould be enough, right?
Crime: Felu was arrested for acciedentally flooding the noble chambers with magma. And water. At the same time. He shot the replacement hammerer with a liberated crossbow (the first is currentally sealed in rock)and ran away to secretally join up.
I'd like him to switch between Mechanics and Crossbowing and do whatever's needed.

Personality/Quirks: Mute.

Yeah, if you ever end up with a dwarf who is constantly getting wounded but never seems to die - put me in. Snoopicus name, I don't care about gender or skillset.
As long as my dwarf is MAD!
And if he ever dies, just find another crazy dwarf and rename him Snoopicus, and give the excuse "We all thought he died, but he just changed clothing and started on some new profession!"
-
especially if he has a red lung wound, eh?
-
ESPECIALLY if he has a red lung wound.
-
Oooh, can I have an immigrant when you get some?
Nickname: Maggarg
Preferred Sex: male
Profession/Skills: Swordsdwarf, metalsmith
Prison Record/Crime: Spent years adventuring the world with an elf. later proceeded to join the army and ended up in a fortress with a mad general. He feigned his death, escaping from his coffin at midnight. After all his many crimes, ranging from being sober in a public place to mass theft, he was only caught for tax evasion.
Personality/Quirks: He's nuts. One and a half centuries travelling will do that to a dwarf. He's a committed alchoholic by dwarf standards, but he can also be outrageously sober. He is also foul-mouthed, lazy, and a talented fighter and metalsmith. He loves fishing.[ May 22, 2008: Message edited by: Maggarg - Eater of chickens ]

That explains why we couldn't ever prosecute your lover for killing you...the body disappeared randomly, and there went all our forensics...
Also the General met a bloody and violent death, but hey, who's counting anyway?
-
I'll take an imagrant
Nickname:Kat (make his profession "Priest"
Preferred Sex:Male
Profession/Skills:Engraving and mechanics
Prison Record/Crime :During the zombie outbreak in malton (The humans capitol, he was visiting at the time it happened) and the quarintine of the whole city he was a death cultist and believed his god ,cealing cat, would bring death to all zombies by human sacrafice. He killed a whole school full of children and the staff of a few police stations. In his defence the orpha- er..I mean shcool attacked him first.
Personality/Quirks: He should like cats and have a crazy personality. If you cant find both in one dwarf pick cats over crazy.
Equipment: He should eventuly get a church built =]
-
Wait... are you saying that The General and Snoopicus staged their own deaths in order to escape the tyranny of the king and the betrayal of the loyalists who had snuck into our ranks, and are now minor characters / cameos?
Sounds like the makings of a good story to me.
-
Well, sort of. they were going to, but Snoopicus kept having to stop to take a breather on account of his red lung wound, and so the General put him out of his misery...
Or did she?
Dun Dun Dun!
Meh, it's a good idea. The General fort has kinda lost interest to me, and I'm really just waiting to get population above siege levels to see how long it takes goblins to kill off a fort full of military dwarves.
I'll try and get working on this fort later next week, I'm leaving on vacation today.
