I might only be available over the next month or so but if that is okay I would like to join.
Name: Either sal or Rigor Gazcubor
Backstory: Last month I was called into the manager's office and duly informed that the mountain home had reach the largest size it could expand to and would no longer need my services as a miner. Further it seemed that in order to continue employing more skilled miners I was no longer needed for that. After this I became somewhat dismayed and became aimless puttering back and forth between gathering some crops and dabbling in other trades. A friend told me of a new expedition that was being planned and low on prospects here I decided to sign up. To give myself motivation and to prevent second guessing I sold all my world possession and purchased a pick and a bag of my favourite seeds to enjoy on the journey.
Along the journey I would like to come across an escaped/wild blue peahen that I share some seeds with and sort of adopt.
Skills:
Skilled Miner
Competent Engraver
Novice Potter, Novice Glassmaker, or Novice Leatherworker *
Novice Grower
Novice Herbalist
Items
Most expensive pick available on embark
If possible a bag of seeds of the dwarfs seed/plant preference. If no preference or not available plump helmet spawn.
A blue peahen.
*I would like this to be based on materials available on the embark area if possible with Potter being preferred to Glassmaker and Glassmaker being preferred to Leatherworker. If this sort of conditional skill is not okay I would like to be a Novice Leatherworker. If I am a Leather worker I would also like to drop Engraver to Adequate and become a Novice Tanner.
