In The Buffalo Town of Soakgrowth, 1st of Granite 250, The Age of Heroes
Lolama Styledyelled walked across the library in the great city of Soakgrowth, first city of the Buffalo. It had stood against nature and changelings since time was first recorded. But Lolama was not a Buffalo, but a Zebra staying in the city to use its vast library to further his research. Lolama's name was known far and wide and many apprentices dreamed of coming under his tutelage, for all of his past and former students have been great writers in their own right. But for now, Lolama had just sent his last apprentice on their way, their teaching complete, he decided to take time off to do what no one had done before.
He grabbed quires, quills and ink and sat at a table and began to write...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey everyone, due to the unexpected shortness and death the last fort recieved, I am starting another. This one, however has some actual goals.
- First - I am going to write a history of the world I genned, to give plenty of backstory. I briefly went through the history and its pretty interesting.
- Second - We are gonna start the fort with a Pony civ that has lost its Alicorn princess already (shouldn't be too hard, Alicorns are extremely fragile in world gen I found out)
- Third - The new Fort/City is gonna be based off of Canterlot, so white stone for walls and gold for the roofs and plenty of parks
- Fourth - Once we are stable enough, we are gonna build a Royal Castle. This will be the main sight of the city and will tower over the rest of the other buildings. For this I made the height limit 25 instead of the usual 15, I will use dfhack to increase that if I must
- Fifth - Once the population reaches 120 ponies I will use dfhack to spawn in an Alicorn and use make-monarch to restore her to the throne. I will dorf her as whoever in the community has contributed the most or best
- Sixth - I don't know, I will begin taking suggestions if we manage to do all of the above
And the rules for this fort are as follows:
- No meat. We are ponies and ponies do not eat meat, that's a given.
- Underground building is restricted to storage, mining, and Magma related metalwork
- If there be no Gold on this map, then I will hold a poll to see which stone or vein we will use dfhack to transform into gold.
As for the named ponies, just say which type you want, Pegasus, Earth, or Unicorn. I will do my best to find you one. Due to the fact that, unlike the previous fort, our Civ is still alive and well at a lush 14000 ponies, Pop won't be a problem this time around.
And the list of Important NPCs
- Lolama Styledyelled - Historian
- Apasi Brain Swamped - An Astronomer who discovered that the Universe does not revolve around the earth. I took a liking to him and would've used him instead of Lolama for the history, but I couldn't fit him in with his background. I will try to bring him in later though.
- Lim Lyicalcoast - The consort to the Fallen Alicorn Princess of the Wooden Sheen. Driven by grief and hatred for all ponies, he began worshipping the skeletal pony god of death, Rungak, and became the world's first necromancer. To this day he lies in his tower attacking all who approach and plotting his revenge against the ponies who let his wife die.
- Avalon - Ryukan's informant and go to person concerning the aquisition of artifacts.
And with that, I hope you enjoy this new chapter in the Pony Fort Saga.
