Jack Frost, the Arctic necrothreadamancer!
In other words, he does cryokinesis rather than pyrokinesis. He mostly just wants to steal people's treasure, rather than kill things.

Also, is anything happening with the RTD side-game idea, or is that just not going to happen?

FINALLY WORKED
Rules:
1. Each player takes 1 ingame year as a turn and then after his turn is over, he saves, zips his savefile and gives it to the next person in line.
2. If the fortress perishes, it shall either be reverted back to the latest save and then it shall be decided onto whom the savefile goes onto, reclaimed or the end of the fort.
3. You are not allowed to destroy the fortress on purpose so that it is considered griefing or in anyway trying to ruin the succession game.
4. You must play with Dwarf Fortress Version 43.05 and with Teh LOLmod (Should be in the savefile).
5. If any Gamebreaking bug is discovered because of the mod, it is to be stated so that it can be fixed.
6. You must forumite (dorf) yourelf after or during your turn as any forumite you desire. Forumite any other person that has expressed such a desire if possible.
7. Report deaths of any forumites that are in the Necrothreat Hall of Fame and add new if you desire and are worthy enough.
9. You have exactly 1 week worth of time to finish your turn. If you have not finished by that time, you are required to hand over the savegame to the next player if you've made any progress. Three days grace period between two players ending and starting is given.
10. Make narration and updates until you turn runs out. Try to keep it to the story. Every medium (three paragraphs) to large (above three paragraphs) update will net you an extra day to finish your turn. Story topic: Necrothreat has been lost to the times and is up to you to search for what happened.
11. Big holidays with a short period (like Christmas, New Year's or your birthday) are exempted from the turn period and will give the current player extra days equal to those of the holiday. This number cannot be more than 4 days.

Note: Everything can be changed depending on how things progress.[/spoiler]
Sounds like you're starting with no idea of what is going on, Gwolfski?

Obviously why he was hand picked to be the next overseer!

I has no internet for a few days, so yes, I'm a bit clueless. Gonna have fun!

Ah, yes. Fun.
The time machine is in my workshop if you need it.

I think that we can say with confidence that a significant number of our characters are displeased with the coup.

9755
Sorry for double-posting, but... well, is anything happening? It's been two days.

9756
While there is no precedent on withdrawing from your turn, you may do so. We must all remember that this is a succession fortress in the end and was created with the end goal of the players and subsequent followers having fun.

Thanks. Really sorry about the inconvenience.

Don't worry about it. If you think you'll have less fun if you participate then it makes sense to not.

So... does this mean I get the fort next?

After Gwolfski, yes. You'll probably be in charge of reviving us after the near death that will happen during Gwolfski's turn? (If we follow previous Necrothreat turn times)
Great we're all going to die somehow pull up in the nick of time.  Maybe.
Don't worry, we still have a Schrodinger's time machine in case bad stuff decides to explode us.

9757
SM, you don't know anything. I don't know anything. Let the veterans make those calls.

9758
Well, that's miraculous. It's only been, what, a month since Sprin's turn was supposed to expire? :P
Surprisingly, it's only been about... what, at most 20 days since his turn started? It's felt longer, yes, but still.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(our smilies will blot out the sun)

EDIT: I have no regrets.

I live on a boat
What.

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?
Skeletal carp. So, Gwolfski?

Hello? Anyone there? It's been two days.

Sprin, is anything happening? It doesn't matter if it's intersting, it's just nice to know that the game is still running.

Is anyone able and willing to run the RtD game?

9763
First off, most of what I know comes from RtRtD, link here. Basically, we each choose an action, then the GM rolls a D6. 1 = crit. fail, 2 = fail, 3 = okay, 4 = success, 5 = flawless success, and 6 = anywhere from far too much to, uh...
Quote
(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.
That actually happened.

For more examples of what happened in that game, you can read the thread (link was up there) or the TvTropes page (a website suitable for classification as a psychological weapon, and thus not linked right now). Dermonster's reputation and profile image also come from that game. He summoned his blood into becoming bones.

9764
Just an idea... Could we have some kind of RTD game while we wait for Sprin's stuff?

EDIT: I wouldn't be able to be the one to run it, just making a suggestion.
