I thought of another solution to the housing issue, when I did some playtesting of my Norse mod I found a Longhouse style building to be very efficient for housing a large number of humans. Beds along either long wall each designated as a 1 tile room, a row of tables and chairs in front of each line of beds designated as a single dining room and a throne set up at the halls head. I built additional rooms on either side to store things as needed but it worked very well for a simple bed and dining arrangement.

A force of Beakwolves has been sighted. We're rallying to drive them away with blood and iron. I feel elated at the chance to spill their vile blood upon the grass, like a vast fount of amusement is flowing into me at the prospect of battle.

It needs to touch their skin to affect them. Let them out so they can go wash at the well.

Real world humans have occasionally lived in underground rooms so I'm fine with it. Dig out a corridor and some cells or something beneath the main housing area.

I'm thinking that it would be nice to expand the tavern out into a castle.

Good luck killing off hundreds of peasants with forks.

Beware the forks of doom. Due to the way the game handles weapons forks and carving knives and such are very dangerous weapons.


As dogs and cats don't occur in the wild they all count as part of a civilization. This means that when you hurt them the civ becomes an enemy to you. Any peasants of that civ will attack you on sight with their deadly forks.

Hmm, I'd kind of like to get a chance to gut him in close quarters. Strip his gear and give me a hammer for a minute or two and we'll see how I fare.

I gave birth today. Was rather surprised truth be told. Splint asked me what we'd call him, I decided on Athra Joytreaties. I decided to get back to sparring but it's rather difficult to hold my spear, shield and son all at the same time. I really should speak to the others about setting up a creche or something. Maybe later, for now I have training to do. When I don't train I feel... Watched.

So I've only gone and spurted out a sprog have I? Well we'd best see to it that the wee lad does alright. I propose we establish a nursery burrow to stick children in that keeps them away from the main gate. Hmm, wouldn't mind some kind of custom profession for the wee fella seein' as he's the son of the founder. Pride is a fault of mine and I'd like to see the first child born to my character stand out.
