Yes well… I'd learned my lesson! And, there WERE extenuating circumstances there :P

Progress is ongoing! I'm getting fortifications on the south side of the Citadel built. It's going pretty smoothly.





We received word that our stocks of limonite was running low, so I carved out an unsightly area in the east of the citadel, as it had limonite.



Down in the caverns, I heard a yowl! Not what you'd think, though. Zefon just turned into a werelizard again, and started giving the terrified troll Azstrog a beating. Zefon tore its right hand off, and broke the other one, as well as kicking its teeth out of its skull. The troll promptly passed out, and Zefon turned back, and fled as far away as she could from the troll.



And, not long afterwards - a diplomat appeared, struggling through the brush.





Not long after her, some tired looking merchants followed. I raised the gate after they were in, and the squaddies jumped into position, ready to defend the merchants.



One of them has the most glorious facial hair I've yet seen on a human.


IT IS HE, EMAN OF THE GLORIOUS MOUSTACHE.

Anywho, I buy some alcohol and a few pieces of weaponry. I am considering buying some animals, too, but they seem quite expensive.



I'm going to cut off here, as I need to go to bed early for uni tomorrow. Another update coming after uni.

We can afford expensive, quite easily. Trap components blow the human mind, apparently.

I tried to do the start from the dawn of time by myself, and I started on an island... When I left town my companion got killed by a camel crossing the first river then that night the camel got killed by a fire demon.

Swimming over oceans is terrible though, the game freezes every time it tries to load a chunk.



Also, could I be dwarfed in the fortress? As a female mason or engraver if possible please!
If not then a fisherdwarf.

Hey, I've got a question that you guys may be able to answer. I seem to remember way back during the adventurer phase that there was someone who grabbed the dead body of one of the guys who didn't make it and carried it all the way to the fortress. Did that body ever get buried, and is there a way to bury dead dwarves from before embark?

I know it's a bit odd, but I thought I might as well ask.

Nope, because burial is assigned by unit. The corpse itself is merely an item according to the game, and if the unit it belonged to died off site, then their unit is off-site and cannot be selected for burial. I believe they just build a vault around it.

Can someone name a dwarf after me?

Please?

Also, I'd join in but I don't know how to upload the saves and whatnot also I'm in college so I don't have much time for the game.

To be truly honest I came out from lurking not only to congratulate to everybody who put something of themselves into this... I rather egoistically would like to get a little place in this story, if possible some kind of wrestler/bare-handed fighter called "Ankareth"... If that isn't possible, then I'll gladly keep following you!
Hi I never usually comment but I am now coming out of lurking.i would like an axedwarf named Thanatos (Greek god of death) he should have his own squad all he does is train (can you use dfhack to make sure he loves training and does not get unhappy about it) he always wears black he wears a hood so you can only see his mouth not his eyes or nose. He does not usually talk but when he does he is very dark. After a year of training please send him out with the founders please.
Also, could I be dwarfed in the fortress? As a female mason or engraver if possible please!

Ok a while ago I think Melkor sent me an E-mail with an updated First page listing new people who wanted to be Dwarfed.

I have TOTALLY lost that E-mail and looking for a repost :P
