Quick! Someone catalog those books!

[Mjattie]

I'd like to join up and see if I can find some... interesting places and/or build a place.

Quick! Someone catalog those books!

Have fun its pages upon pages of books... some dont even have names anyone who gets the reading skill can now become a necromancer I assume. They had so many books on JUST ONE level. Oh and the Human many are about the human.

My fortress has a gift for those who dare enter it... You will be punished though terrible things could happen. Dwarfs get more gifts.

Uploading tomorrow.

I've added you to the list,

[Mjattie]

Yeah my adventuring world had like 99% of all organic life killled. All that was left were titans, colossuses, necromancers, vampires, etc. from after "The Assault Of Chaos". Anyways, I started in a God's castle, and the keep was PILED full of books - every single square had atleast 2 books on it.

I have a general idea for my character, no one steal my ideas :p

[Corai]

I wish to join in on the death!

[Bralbaard]

Join us in death? no problem.

Also Kromgar send me the save for his turn in a PM, it can be found here:

Edit: I removed the link,  save appears to be broken. (raw files are missing)


Apparently his new fortress is a dangerous place.

I'll send Di a PM.

Hi guys, I won't be able to do a turn, sorry.

[Llamainaspitfire]

If you are still taking turns, i'll have one.

[Bralbaard]

Hi guys, I won't be able to do a turn, sorry.

No problem.

I just found out that the save that Kromgar posted appears to be broken.  I wanted to update the map with the new fortress location but the save crashed on me (all the raw files appear to be missing). I´m not sure about what will happen if we just add the raws from an older save, I guess it´s safer to ask Kromgar to reupload. So I´ll send him a PM, once we have the new file, I'll PM spinal_taper that he can start playing. I´ve added Llamainaspitfire to the player list.

i'm thinking about taking a turn, but i've never done a succesion game of any type, especially one like this. So i'm mainly posting to follow, but i may take a turn later.

[Bralbaard]

I asked around elsewhere on the forum and apparently it is possible to take the raws from an older save of the same game and use those.
I repaired the savegame and in a quick test, everything seemed to work. The file can be found here:

I'll PM the next player.

[Kromgar]

Sorry hadnt logged into my email or on the forums in awhile

[Bralbaard]

No problem.

The turn list has been reordered quite dramatically. Spinal_taper requested to be moved to the last position in the turn list. This would make it my turn, but I'm actually buying a house right now, which means I'm sorting trough lots of paperwork, contracts and small print, and messing those up would be kind of expensive, on top of that I need to finish a chapter for my thesis by monday. This means it would be Sappho's turn but she indicated that she wouldn't be able to play earlier than may when she gets her new computer. So I moved myself and Sappho somewhat down the list, it's Brewsters turn now.

Entry One:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I grew up in the library, always reading different stories. The ones that most fascinated me were the ones about magic and the arcane arts. There have always been rumors of failed expeditions to embark to new lands due to undead attacks. I always wondered where this amazing power came from. Until one day...

The markets were busy with their usual wares, and the haggling of prices. I heard rumors of someone opening a museum containing interesting items in the nearby capital. They also said a stack of books was recently brought there from a necromancer's tower! I could not believe my ears, I had to investigate this.

I traveled to this museum. There were many dead bodies gathered around it's courtyard... what an odd place. I made my way inside and found the pile of books resting on a table. I began reading through all the books, learning interesting tid bits here and there. Days past as I read them. The museum guard explained that I too should find a special item for this museum. I just laughed at him thinking that I could barely chop wood, let alone go exploring. I continued reading... then finally, it happened!!

Entry Two:

 Instantly I began to rise all the dead bodies around me!! They rose and came under my command. A bowman from the nearby walls heard the commotion and the undead quickly ended his life. I then animated his body too and he followed me as I fled from the capital with a squad of undead behind me. I traveled, and interestingly I did not become hungry or tired. My new powers have made me incredibly powerful. I was told about a campsite with a gang of humans who would attack the citizens. Me and my men quickly attacked them, the swarm continued to grow. If they killed one of my undead, I simply rose him again... I was becoming unstoppable!!

Entry Three:

Another gang of humans jumped me and my squad. They were strong and struck down half of my men, but I would raise them again to continue the fight. We slowly whittled down their ranks. Out of no where crossbowman struck me with a silver bolt, and I fainted to the pain. Thankfully I awoke with undead smiles looking down at me. My men had achieved victory!

My loyal gang has grown large.
