Spoiler: Echoes from the Horrorfailed Forge (click to show/hide)

I'm a bit worried.

KLANG

Ev'rybody keeps lookin' at me funny.

KLANG

They get all quiet when I walk in tha room.  Except fer shoutin' about what they can't find and what they can't do.

KLANG

I keep hearin' murmurs about me and goin' ta see tha overseer.

KLANG

Not sure if I actually want ta.

KLANG

Got lost lookin' fer booze the other day.

KLANG

Found this pit, lined wi' beautiful gem windows.  Sat there admirin' them fer a bit, till the smell hit me.

KLANG

Smelled like tha morass outside, which is sayin' somethin' since I can't smell that zombified muck anymore, my nose is nigh dead.

KLANG

Then I saw tha sign above tha pit, with "OVERSEER" scrawled on it with blood, an' a rude gesture pointin' down.

KLANG

We're all gonna die down here.

...

I need a drink.

This is a copper axe.

On the item is a picture of a dwarf.  The dwarf is worried.

I'm on Hellcannon right now, but I figured I'd go ahead and request a dorf here. If anything interesting happens, I guess I'll find out when I finish Hellcannon.

Qwerty - Mason or Engraver - Wannabe Pic

Not sure of the etiquette for dorfage requests, since this is my first, so... yeah. Just add me to the list I guess?

We have a disturbing amount of unnamed dorfs.

Would you want to be in the sorcerer-busting squad?

[Temporarily9]

Sounds fine to me, thanks.

[NightmareBros]

woah, a sudden drop in activity here

[arcangelsd]

Turns out that our new militia captain, Qwerty, actually has some experience in killing. A zombie ogre called Friendcannons. I don't know what to think of its name.

Ah, the job cancellation shouting. I had started to miss it thoroughly. Someone yelled that our possesed fellow had seized control of a craftdwarf's workshop. Let's see what he does. The sorcerer it's not going back alive, though.

Armaggedoncounselor keeps shouting and yelling about his MAGNIFICENT PIECES OF ART, and how THEY ARE SUCH WONDERFUL MASTERPIECES. Armok, I'm losing my cool, and I'M DEAD.

Another bitominous coal piece of shit. Cool.


(INTERMISSION: for more of half an hour of playing, this is ALL that happened. Horrorfailed, as it is, is a perfectly functional fortress that just happen to be situated in the middle of a hellhole. And even then, is a particularly uneventful one. The drop in activity is related to my increasing frustration, because I totally didn't expect this uneventfulness. That's why I didn't had any planning done when my turn started, so I'm making some on the fly. I'll stop for a while, get some things together, and make a big update this afternoon.
Thanks for your patience.)

Our course is now clear: it is now the objective of all overseers to make this fort reflect the area surrounding it.

Soaked in ooze and blood and overrun with rotting undeath? I can do that with my turn. Just direct me to the front gate lever.

No need of that. The door is always open, and nobody knows where that lever is anymore.

That's assuming we had a lever in the first place. Could it be possible that the world has just given up on trying to kill Horrorfailed? Has Battlefailed finally won? Or did I just curse us all?

If the world has given up on killing Horrorfailed, then we clearly lost.

[arcangelsd]

It has been thoroughly decided: I will clean out the surface from the undead, and I'll turn the most nether zones of the fort into the madness we're so used to.

(In order to speed this a little, I'll download DF in my laptop, and will update whenever I have free time at college, so expect little posts which will slowly grow with modifications, until they are about the size of my first two, so keep an eye in my posts even if someone has already commented after me)

[Teneb]

I'll start updating the archive soon today. arcangelsd, once you finish your turn (and only then), can you give me a dorf list so I can update the first page? I completely lost track of dorfings.

It's all right.
May I note their state of undeath? (as in, alive, or zombie)
