DF Community Games & Stories / Sharksilver - A New Beginning (Community Fortress)

From the journal of Exarch Anvilblazes
Today I have received a letter decorated with the seal of the king himself. It would seem that he believes me to be the best candidate to lead the next expedition for the kingdom of The Frosty Volcano. Surely I cannot turn down such a grand opportunity that our wise king has granted me. Though I am rather confused as to why he would appoint me for such a job. His court is filled with administrators yet instead of sending one of them he sends me, a common soap maker. I suppose I will have to do my best in order to lead this settlement. Along with the letter I was sent a bag full of golden coins. I am to use them to purchase a wagon and any provisions needed for the trip. The letter also states that I should persuade a few other citizens to join me for the expedition. I’m sure that should be a rather easy task. The new settlement is to be in The Soaked Jungle a large forested area with plenty of game and resources to harvest. Surely other citizens would jump at the chance to start over in a region free of any industry. I will have to prepare for the journey right away. I have only a week to get everything in order and I do not want to disappoint the king. While I will miss everything and everyone I’ve known here in the fortress I am far more excited by the opportunity at hand. I will recruit only the hardest working dwarves to follow me so that we can build a successful settlement. Perhaps as it grows more and more dwarves will hear of our prosperity and immigrate to our fortress allowing it to grow even further. I will see that we build one of the greatest fortresses ever known to dwarven kind. One day I will make sure that it outshines even the mountainhome itself. But everything has to start somewhere. I only have one week to prepare. Only one week until the beginning of my new life in Sharksilver.
I'm back once again armed with a new world that hopefully won't crash and burn this time. Setting up another community fortress using the following embark. Ignore the aquifer tag. I reinstalled the game and forgot to remove the tags from the raws. I'll be using DFhack to remove it.
Still using the excellent Civilization Forge 2.70 mod and a few other custom modifications. No major plans/projects in mind yet but that doesn't rule them out in the future. Most likely going with mass genocide for profit and an eventual attempt to go to the circus and burn all the clowns for just being clowns. Here's to hoping that this fort dies the way it should in an explosion of dead bodies, tantrums, and plump helmets instead of a corrupted file.
All dorfs listed are available to be claimed. If you want a dorf just give me a name/profession/whatever you like and I'll add them to the list.
