The Adventures of a Mason [Interactive]
« on: November 21, 2012, 01:30:32 am »

Cog locates a Badger

Cog briefly scratches his ass, looking around. In his impaired sight, he sees a badger.

Throw the spoon at the badger, then charge at it with the pickaxe held high above our head. Steel pickaxes in the hands of a miner are serious business.

Attacking the Badger
« Reply #3 on: November 21, 2012, 02:52:23 am »

The spinning ≡Iron Spoon≡ strikes the badger in the leg, bruising the muscle and fat!
The Mason charges at the badger!
The Badger is enraged!
The Mason strikes the Badger's upper body with his ≡Steel Pickaxe≡, severing the motor nerves, tearing the muscles, and shattering the bone!
The severed parts sail off in an arc!
The badger has been struck down.

Cog feels victorious.

Carry the dead badger inside so we can eat it later. Take a look inside the chest (although we should probably already know).

You drag the badger corpse inside, and you lay your hands on your chest. You open it, peaking inside.

Eat the badger raw as a snack, as we descend the mineshaft and look for minerals to dig up.

    You decide to eat it raw. Quite nasty, yet delicious. You then spend some of your time mining. You remember that you built a mason's workshop in the room by the stairs, but you can't build right now. You swing your pick, and create tunnels. Not long, you find native gold!

    You mine all of the ores you see. "Gold!" You exclaimed, yet you don't know what to do with it? Perhaps sell it? You know theres a town just over the hills. But just as you thought, you hear the grunts of goblins above the ground. What will you do?

Don the iron helm, shove a handful of fly brains into our mouth, and charge look out the window towards the sounds with our pickaxe at the ready.

The first small thing that made me feel awesome was my indoor waterfall. A few minutes later though, it started flooding my fort so I felt less awesome.

    You panic a bit beforehand, but quickly regain senses. You eat some of your fly brains. You regret that you left the iron helm back in your chests, but you have an idea... You quickly scurry to your workshop, and construct some stonefall traps. The traps are set.
