[Kamin]

You want their v->z->enter right?

Yes; although I don't remember offhand if that's what shows their profile, it sounds right (the screen with likes, dislikes, etc.).

[Ethan741]

Can I see mine also?

Can I see mine also?

All 7 have had their profiles hyperlinked over their names. Just go click 'em ^^

Explorer's Journal - 1st of Malachite, 251

Our crafting workshops have been completed, and our bedrooms have been carved out. This place is starting to look like more than some forsaken hole in the frozen earth. Kamin has begun work on making ourselves some beds. It's certainly better than sleeping on the ground and rocks, that's for sure.



My office has been carved out as well, and I can begin taking proper stock of our holdings. Having proper records will be essential if we want to succeed here.

Explorer's Journal - 11th of Malachite, 251

With the coming of summer the river has thankfully fully melted and we can begin fishing for food. It's good to know that this place isn't too close to the southern pole that we'd end up without fresh water or fish year round.



Explorer's Journal - 25th of Malachite, 251

Our first wave of migrants has arrived! Apparently we aren't the only dwarves this side of the Continent of Mirths who're crazy enough to settle in such a cold swamp. With any luck they'll have some more skilled craftsmen to further provide for our small outpost of a home.



Explorer's Journal - 9th Limestone, 251

It is now fall, and the digging of our living area is slow but progressing. Several of our dwarves have taken up rock crafting in anticipation of the caravans coming in late fall. Kate herself has found a hobby in rock crafting, finding it helps with her dexterity as well as tuning her mind and promoting creativity.

[Kamin]

Awesome, it's looking pretty good. How many migrants arrived?

Also, aside from how he looks, Kamin is a lot like me. I am kind of surprised! And the fact that his favorite drink is sewer brew just makes me crack up--I made (and drank) a recipe I dubbed "Sewer Brew" in honor of the DF beverage of the same name. Although I don't expect anybody to be interested, I'd be more than willing to provide the recipe.

Oh, and yeah, it was pretty awful.

Well, with a name like "sewer" you're not exactly drinking merlot. Also Deroft will be pleased to know we have iron yielding ores and bituminous coal. I don't know if we have flux stone (darn bugged embark) but we'll see. Iron armor may not be the greatest but we'll certainly try.

[Ethan741]

It's pretty accurate for me accept for the "slow to anger".  Also can I have a cabinet? I need a place to store all my useless crap. Also yes, despite the name, sewer brew sounds lovely.

[sadron]

My standard practice in any game is to make one chest and one cabinet for all of my dwarves, so you will eventually get your own stuff once we're completely settled in.

Explorer's Journal - 20th of Sandstone, 251

The dining area is mostly completed now, we've started putting in an initial set of tables and doors. Once this place is properly dug out Mageziya will begin smoothing out the surfaces and make this place much more presentable.



Explorer's Journal - 22nd of Sandstone, 251

Additional migrants have arrived, unfortunately in the middle of a rough snow storm. The group of 6 dwarves quickly make their way into the warmth of our humble home. One of the arrivals is a bone doctor. Hopefully this additional personnel will help Ethan741, M.D. in the future.



Explorer's Journal - 11nd of Sandstone, 251

Apparently the wildlife here is quite hardy, as one of our future war dogs was stung by a bee today, in the middle of a cold late autumn, in the middle of a snow storm no less. I was not aware that bees could survive in such temperatures. Perhaps in the future they will make very high quality mead, if such hardy bees can make just as hardy honey.

Explorer's Journal - 18th of Timber, 251

A Caravan from the mountainhomes has arrived! With it come much needed provisions and other necessities. I quickly instruct our most able to carry all of the presently available trinkets and crafts crafted by our very own stone hobbyist Kate to the trading depot.



Explorer's Journal - 28th of Timber, 251

At last the basic living arrangements of our fort have been completed! With this we can build up the rest of the kitchens and properly store our food stockpile.



Winter has set upon us now. We have settled in quite well enough to surely make it through the coming years. With any luck we shall bring glory to our mountainhome and make our king proud.

[Ethan741]

Can we write journals also, or just sit back?

[sadron]

If you guys would like to write journals for your characters in relation to the story and everything then by all means, go ahead ^_^

Explorer's Journal - 1st of Opal, 251

With the advent of winter and the completion of our basic living arrangements I've tasked Mageziya with smoothing out the stone of our humble home. Once he's gained a significant amount of skill I'll start having him recount the legends of our civilization within the dining halls.



Explorer's Journal - 18th of Opal, 251

Due to the expanding population we have dug out a second underground farm plot to feed our workers. I've also commissioned the digging out of a barracks for Militia Commander Kate. She will start training our military and bring them up to shape in no time.

Explorer's Journal - 1st of Obsidian, 251

Inod Lertethiden has been rather secretive lately... we saw him pass by us recently muttering to himself as he made his way towards the crafting hall.




Explorer's Journal - 5th of Obsidian, 251

It seems he has been busy at work on perfecting the art of staying warm.

Certainly an item to be coveted and cherished in such a cold place.

[Mageziya]

Who wants to take bets I will start engraving engravings of me engraving?

Fitting that we both like coral.

FIRST MANDATE: IMPORT CORAL...SOMEHOW, IN ANY FORM. If not, set me to statue making, as I might make a statue of coral.

Also, he looks nothing like me.
The personality is similar to me, though.

[Delioth]

Can I get dorfed as Delioth, Resident B.A.? Swordsdwarf, Male preferred, but it doesn't really matter. Also, at some point in time when you get the needed industries, could I get whatever sword I have encrusted with gems? Many thanks!

[sadron]

I'll be updating more tomorrow.
