Spoilers for my turn: I will have no idea what's going on
I don't think anyone has one any more.

Welcome to Murdermachines. Try the gecko sauce; it's delectable and delightful, a wonderful blend of savory and spicy that makes any dish delicious without being too overwhelming.

Well... I suppose I could give it a shot... what's the turn order list currently look like?

A dark voodoo statistics ritual involving a seven-sided die, fourteen pie charts, three XML documents, a random number generator, a psycho clown, a dart board, and our names in an out-dated spreadsheet file with compatibility issues that was written by Terry himself fifteen minutes in the future on a Windows 98. Or at least, that's all the parts I've been able to figure out so far. It's just easiest to say "Your turn comes when the game says so".

Right. I'll prep my anti-darkness incantations, clutch my plushie to my chest, and hope the arcane winds don't make me lose my skirt again.

Also wait patiently for my turn. I'll do that too.

Spoilers for my turn: I will have no idea what's going on and will probably try to write a silly narrative.

I could hold your hand if you'd prefer.

Abort! Abort!
Quickly, someone pull a lever and hope it does something useful!

Hell, I had no idea what was going on, and I was one of the overseers before the really fucked shit started happening.
A few notes:

*The elves are not our friends. At all. They are to be slain without mercy.

*There's a torture chamber/day care on the lower z-levels. Can't be arsed to remember exactly where I built the damn thing, but if you need to dispose of prisoners/make sacrifices/indulge yourself, it's there.

*INSCRIBE SLABS. Vengeful ghosts are not something you want hassling you in the middle of a voidspawn invasion.

That's the extent of my advice. When you do take your turn running this Armok-forsaken charnel-house that would do Khorne proud, just remember. Terry is watching. Always.

Journal of Saber Idarban Elbelsoloz Zan, Godslayer:
13th of limestone


Forgotten beast of the port bow!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
Flies are apparently popular in the beast world. It would have blundered right over the first cavern's wall if it hadn't set its eyes on a Voidspawn I had dropped in earlier this year. Fortunately, the voidspawn is an apparent coward, so it is running while the beast chucks blobs of spit at him. This has given us time to move in. Time to slay the beast.

Or not. Sodor has given up chase and instead chose to hang with Baru and Lanami. Baru is currently running after the voidspawn.

What I want to know is why are the forgotten beasts are attracted to that coffin?

MAFOL YOU-

Fool??

This is no recruit.

This is a true dwarf!

This is a perfect opportunity to take out the beasts. As we speak, Mafol has gone after Baru. I fear for his life. I must make haste.

26th of Limestone
Mafol has slain all 3 of the Forgotten beasts!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This is truly a momentous occasion. We have finally gotten rid of those pests. The other dwarves carried the weary Mafol away, cheering his name. I suppose I shall join the celebration. Can't hurt to have some enjoyment around here.

What the fuck. Is some random undorfed recruit now our new Darkwing? Hell, even Darkwing just managed to kill two clowns before he went down. It's beyond me that a frigging recruit in the Official Voidspawn Feeding Detachment managed a triple kill on Forgotten Armokhumping Beasts.

I...

Okay, you know what. I know you guys expect florid and quotable reactions to occurrences in the fort from me. That's what I do. That's my job here in the Murdermachines thread.

You know what? I got nothing.

This is a Dwarven corpse. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled with bands of pathetic and menaces with spikes of fail.

I'm going to hazard a guess this guy got a piece of Anima stuck in him. Just a tiny piece. Just enough of the Void God's power.

He single handly slew Baru and Lanami, and nearly solo'd Sodor, when NCommander and Ulborb came to assist towards the end of the duel. He was tired (from Baru tanking like no tomorrow), but those two weren't even needed.

He probably ate Anima hamburger.

...damn random number generator. Constantly leading to random feats of both epic win and extremely pathetic fail.

On a side note, are we still calling him "The Recruit"? Because making him keep such a seemingly ironic title is probably the only way Terry won't consider this hubris.

That'd explain it. Anyways, I added him to the Tropes page under Badass and Mauve Shirt. Tropes page

I was reading the Tropes page when suddenly I got a nosebleed. Darn it Terry.
