Author's Note: I would totally get a 3Dwarf/VisualFortress rendition of this, but it hangs my computer when I start it up (or does it normally go for a long-ass time when getting the world data?) Help?
What's Gone On Before:Pearclasps was founded in 165 by a starting group of 7 dwarves whose names I forget. The only dwarf I remember is Katie Amdahl. She's my main military dwarf. Named after my best friend Katie and the wonders of a Random Name Generator. (I basically used the generator and chucked the first name (it was like John or something) and replaced it. >_>)
The Fuck The World Device 2.0, featured below, was my
first second creation. The first attempt didn't work out so well, after which I
obtained from the forums and the minds of other people had of my own creativity an idea to build a magma storage device. I did an accurate count, and this room is ((54 * 36 * 3) + 21) = 5832 + 21 = 5853 tiles of magma total * 7 magma per tile = 40971 tiles of magma is spread evenly and is filling presently.
ArtifactsI'll name only the ones that aren't generic items with nothing interesting. "This is a chest made out of wood lolol" is what I consider generic.
Namedsour the Comedic Insanities, a rainbow trout bone buckler - This is a rainbow trout bone buckler. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is decorated with rainbow trout bone, turtle bone, and hoary marmot leather and encircled with bands of Alunite and Iron. This object menaces with spikes of Willow, Basalt, and hoary marmot leather (A/N: lolwut?). On the item is an image of dwarves in Basalt. The dwarves are travelling. The artwork relates to the founding of Pearclasps by The Truthful Ship of The Renowned Furnaces in the early spring of 165.
Groupedrain, a steel broomstick - This is a Steel broomstick. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with Basalt, decorated with Maple and encircled with bands of Basalt and Amber opal. This object menaces with spikes of Steel and Basalt. On the item is an image of diamonds in Basalt. On the item is an image of a blazing sun in turtle shell.
I mention Groupedrain because it is wielded by Katie. It will become awesome.
The Honest Blockade, an Alunite bed - This is an Alunite bed. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with Alunite and encircled with bands of Alunite. This object is adored with hanging rings of Alunite. On the item is an image of dwarves in Alunite. The dwarves are laboring. The artwork relates to the foundation of Pearclasps by The Truthful Ship of The Renowned Furnaces in the early spring of 165. On the item is an image of Groupedrain the Steel war hammer in Amber opal.
Megaprojects
Execution Tower, 38 z-levels in length when you consider the giant hole in the ground. Pearclasps' first megaproject and one that, while simple in design, was entirely successful. It allowed the chucking of puppies and goblins to their untimely deaths. Year of completion 170.
Arena Of Wooden Doom - Built one z-level belowground, this is the place where Katie Amdahl will head to test her skills against the many many goblins she is pitted against. Full weaponry enabled (except the cheating crossbowgoblins) because where's the fun in letting her off easy? Walls are made of wood to take full advantage of the devastating SPLINTERS. (see

Project Fuck The World 2.0 - As explained above, the giant rectangular prism of magma shall rain doom upon all who wander the 149th z-level of Pearclasps. The main thing that prevents us from firing it up is that the final z-level refuses to fill with magma fast enough. (the pipe always drains before it is filled) Any ideas? *UNDER CONSTRUCTION*
It's been 18 years since Pearclasps was founded. Let's get this going.
