DarkCells (Community Prison Fort)
« on: May 16, 2008, 05:20:00 pm »

I'm inspired by my succession fort, and so I'm going to toss around this idea as well.  The idea is that this fort is a prison complex, run by prisoners.  The fort must have several torture chambers (and devices), cells, and execution devices.  The map will have magma and a river (with carp hopefully).  

So I need some brave souls to trek out into the wilds and risk their lives instead of rotting in prison.

I need:

Nickname:
Preferred Sex:
Profession/Skills:
Prison Record/Crime:
Personality/Quirks:
Equipment:


Rules: Each dwarf gets 150 points to spend on skills and equipment.  I am not naming a dwarf myself (as I tend to play favorites), so I need 7 dwarves to start.  Also, each dwarf must have a skill at the no-adjective level because of the prison rehabilitation program to give each dwarf something useful to do.

I'll take applications beyond the first 7, but disregard the equipment, and give me name, personality, prison record, and preferred skills.  See you at DarkCells.

My starting equipment will have 2 axes and 2 picks, and I'll fill out some stuff I feel we need (and perhaps some animals, I'm not sure yet).  So don't worry about buying an axe, one will be provided.

                  Ambusher 2
                  Marksdwarve 3.

Prison Record/Crime: He was arrested for impersonating the baron, then he was found guilty for murder and thieving, he then begged for his life as he was going to be executed, he said he would do anything. They decided to send him with the group going to DarkCells.

Personality/Quirks: He has a dog that follows him everywhere even into the mines. He is know as a practical joker, coward, thief and murderer. He uses all his talent to succeed.

Thanks.

Seems like a good group so far, I need 2 more so I can embark.  I certainly hope we get a boatload of males with all the requests.

Name: Felu
Jobs: I don't remember how the points work out, so split them between mechanics, mining, and markdwarving.
Equipment: One unit of groundhog meatshould be enough, right?
Crime: Felu was arrested for acciedentally flooding the noble chambers with magma. And water. At the same time. He shot the replacement hammerer with a liberated crossbow (the first is currentally sealed in rock)and ran away to secretally join up.
I'd like him to switch between Mechanics and Crossbowing and do whatever's needed.

Religion, over time, tends to diverge. Science tends to converge.
Funny thing about magic, it doesn't consistently go either way.

Yeah, if you ever end up with a dwarf who is constantly getting wounded but never seems to die - put me in. Snoopicus name, I don't care about gender or skillset.

As long as my dwarf is MAD!

And if he ever dies, just find another crazy dwarf and rename him Snoopicus, and give the excuse "We all thought he died, but he just changed clothing and started on some new profession!"

Snoopicus: What is the kill radius of lava heat?
Snugglybear: I''ve seen it, I think, kill dudes one level above it. But the guy was falling into it at the time, as a dwarven sacrifice. So it''s hard to say.
