We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

Storm already botched my idea on that sadly.

*Puffs on pipe pensively*

YEW GIT THAT SMUG LOOK OFF YER FACE

[Corai]

I dont even remember I have a dwarf in this.



Please kill it. I dont like being dorfed without making a story up with it.

[Hanslanda]

Lol, that's because you've been lurking for so long! Post a story or the dwarf lives! Er, and/or the dwarf lives/dies. Preferably all five, as this is...

\fad No! You cant make a story out of nowhere. Not even in Spearbreakers! /fad

[Splint]

AHEM, I beg to differ. Our aimless rambling into deranged pony land prove otherwise.

[Mr Frog]

@Splint:

Oh ye gods. Pony has been referenced. Shit just got real.

@Hansie:

Can we expect any more STORY TIEM from you in the near future? I'm tapped out for now.

Also... I was sort of basing the hypothetical Blacksmith!Mr Frog's dialogue on myself   I'm not THAT aggressively antisocial, though :p

@Corai:

Your dorf's family/village was slaughtered in a suspicious incident of some stripe (most likely related to Ballpoint) which he has spent his whole life investigating the cause of; his investigation has lead him to Spearbreakers. There's your backstory

[Splint]

Well when we had to move a wall you dropped a block on one of the other metal workers.

[Corai]

@Splint:

Oh ye gods. Pony has been referenced. Shit just got real.

What? You didnt know I was a brony? And that I was slowly converting Splint as well? Shame!

[Hanslanda]

Yes, we can expect Story from Hansie. Dorf Hansie. Let me open my save and see what I am... Be back soon.

Also, Corai, you have the \fad and /fad in the wrong places. It should be around brony.

STORY TIEM!!

Hans woke from his sleep abruptly, unaware that someone was in his room. He sat up, and took a big swill from the mug next to his bed to clear the sobriety cobwebs from his brain. He burped and started to pull on a pair of socks when someone cleared their throat.
Hans look around his room, his cobalt eyes narrowed dangerously, "Whatcha be wantin'? And who are ye?" He spotted a shadowy figure standing by his door, leaning against the door jamb. The figure wore a long, flowing cloak over their tall frame, and Hans couldn't make out their facial features. "Well, come off it 'fore I get angry and wallop you." Hans picked up his very well made silver hammer.
"Hans, calm down. I need you to do something special for me." The voice was instantly recognizable to Hans, and he was, if not cowed by its authority, placated by it.
"Well, why didn't you just say so? Whatcha be needin' boss?" Hans smiled genially, his somewhat simple mind snapping back into a good mood rapidly.
"I need you to go down to sublevel fourty-six and dig this out," The figure handed Hans a set of blueprints. "And link the supports to a lever I'll have you install afterwards on sublevel twenty-five. Soon."
Hans studied the blueprints, keenly interested in the architecture. "This won't be stable. If any of the supports fail, then a small mountain of stone will crush anything in that hallway."
"I know. I want you to do it though. I have my reasons."
Hans nodded belatedly, "Yessir. I'll get right on it. I'll come talk to you again when I've got it all finished, sir."
Splint smiled grimly, "You know where to find me, Hans." With that, the former Overseer left Hans' cramped quarters.
Hans stared at the blueprints for a long time, lost in thought. He had a incredible grasp of architechure and engineering, but anything else was quite beyond him. He knew exactly what the blueprints would look like when built, but for the life him, he couldn't figure out why master Splint would want such a hideously dangerous hallway built.
No matter, Hans got fully dressed and gathered his digging and building equipment.

[Splint]

A soldier I think.

[Mr Frog]

WE DO NOT SPEAK OF THE PONY OR ITS WORSHIPPERS ON THIS FORUM, MMKAY? Also, Brony Secret Handshake @Corai. But I'd like ponytalk to end there.

Seriously, I shouldn't have brought it up Ill-conceived joke was ill-conceived.

[Corai]

What pony? What worshippers?


Where in Spearbreakers, dwarf fortress. The only ponies here are +Pony tallow roasts+


Brohoof

[Splint]

It's fine, as we're all trapped on the shit-tanic and our only option is to cross a blood smeard shitlantic. All are equal. And the ponytalk on thread ends here indeed.
