The Abbey of Cats - Embarking
« on: September 13, 2012, 02:36:50 pm »

Project "Abbey of Cats" is a project started by the king of Dwarfkind to select 7 random members of society and send them into some Armok-forsaken wilderness to build a fortress by whatever means, the mountainhomes were getting cramped and dwarves complaining. The farms weren't producing enough plump helmets and the food stockpile was full of miasma because some dwarf forgot to haul the corpses of 12000 rats into the refuse pile.

Urist Bistīklanlar (Hairybird), a clothier miner has volunteered to lead the expedition.

First things first. Hey Bay12, I'm *somewhat* new, although I lurked here for a *somewhat* long time. I'm bored and have too much time on my hands, so I started this.
Basically, once the fort is up and running I will carry out actions on behalf of the dwarves, these will be decided by majority vote. I also inflict some random hardship/fun on the dwarves of the fortress. Not really roleplay, just expect stupid stuff to go on. Please strive to murder my dwarves in the most dwarfly and !!SCIENTIFIC!! way possible. Also cats.

But first, we need dwarves! I need you to create a dwarf to die help build the fortress.

So, yeah, a stack of 2000 copper coins covered in vile ash that makes you vomit blood to death is my signature weapon.

Sorry, for a moment there I forgot we were all psychopaths.
Someone who has random urges to make mog juice isn't exactly going to care about the cost effectiveness of obtaining it.
