I'll never clean my nails with a mechanical pencil again thats for sure.

This is taking some doing, i've rebuilt the marksdwarf squad though i can't get them training yet, started expanding some areas and worked on trying to make the fort more interconnected but this unholy hive of pathways is driving even me insane. I can only wonder just what you've all been doing since the start of this place.

I actually did dwarf Shining a while back, and I apologize that I forgot to mention it earlier.

Have you updated the save yet?

Crap need to make a new Dwarf. Alrigth then i'll have a look at the save and pick someone then write a backstory.

Found one:

The clerk Kadol Oddomtomus.

Requesting the Name: Shining. Profession: Novelist.

Shining was originaly arrested for writing several small novels based around some rather unsavory elements of the Kingdom's history. It was classed as agitative propaganda. After his sentencing he was reconvicted while still in prison for writing ACTUAL agitative propaganda. He eventual staged no less than 3 riots in order to try and get out of jail. Earning him the enviable chance of going to Steelhold to simply get rid of him.

War elephants are too mainstream, use war cavies, 20 of them can take a goblin swordmaster. Additionialy to get them to fight either assign them to someone who's likely to be near a fight or pasture them at a chokepoint where they'll spot enemies and chase them away.

@Highmax

Nope not aggresive, if forced to he'll fight but otherwise he does his best to avoid trouble, aside from when he escapes.

I'd like to ask for a go at the succession once a turn opens up, as for my Dwarf:

Name: Somneth

Backstory: Somneth is a lifelong miner, his parents did it, he intends for his children to do it. Though after he got arrested for stealing a simple piece of bread it became likely he would never HAVE children. He'd stolen the bread because as a Miner he'd found himself losing his job to forced prison labor. He'd quickly realized the irony of his situation and gotten used to prison, attempting to escape nearly a dozen times and getting caught each one his sentence was doubled then tripled, then simply noted as "Indefinite" His apparent cunning and skill that had allowed him to make these escape attempts is what brought him to the attention of his new overseer. He was good with orders, fairly smart, and a hard worker, but still always looking for a way out. he was starting to think this may be that way.


Prefered skills: (x) mining and (x) stoneworking/ masonry/ Architecture, however much you feel is appropriate god sir.
