Spearbreakers, the fan sequel to Syrupleaf, now has it's own RTD!!!

!!!WARNING!!!
This thread will have spoilers to the succession game. please do not play if you haven't read the spearbreakers succession game or specify that you haven't. you can find it here. It's a long read. I suggest skimming.

This RTD will not be part of Canon, in game or out.

Now, on to the rules. standard RTD rules apply. anything can and probably will happen. I'll have five people at the start and I will never have more than that. for those that actually have dwarves  that have major roles in the fortress, you'll need to pick a different name. you won't be playing as your dwarf in the fortress.

There will be a hit point system. you'll start with 100 hp and lose it when you get hurt. you'll regain 5 health every turn and if you're bleeding will lose 5, 10, or 20 health per turn depending on severity. practicing with objects will do nothing for you as I won't be keeping track of levels.

put your actions in bold. Actions that are not bold will be ignored.

Starting environment: you look around you. the migration caravan walks somberly through the thick blood rain. you've heard glorious tales of richs and mugs from the fortress ahead, but the journey has not been easy. spawn, undead, and scythods have all done there part to whittle down your caravan to just you five. Morale has not been high, but you're so close.

Ready my claymore and prepare for something bad to happen. After all, this is Spearbreakers.

Backstory (please don't read if you aren't the GM):

Spoiler: And if you do, don't act on it! (click to show/hide)

He is really a gnome named Frogodbuttlisufgriinwhocherifallufdilocouaswonithetmekisyuadrankendstapod. He came here for the alcohol and stayed for the lovely metalwork. He is working on picking up useful skills, but is mostly trying to become a brewer. Thanks to clever work with stilts and a hooded cloak, he's managed to fake being a dwarf for now...but how long will that last? Not long, given how much he oozes false dwarven stereotypes...

Emong will draw his knife and looks around, walking quickly towards the fortress...

For fun, Backstory:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Remember as a kid when you thought that dreams could be real? Zedo, Zinicad, Kyh. All dreams, all real. Ignore Zinicad and Kyh, they're just canon for Spearbreakers itself.

Scythes drawn, Zedo trudges through the blood rain, searching for the dwarf who's dreams he inhabits...

Am I too late? What happens then?

But the somuglutiomugns to oumugr problmugems are mumuggs!

[Talvieno]

Race : Dark elf ( purely because dwarfs dislike elves and I wanna see if I can make an elf they will learn to like )

Lol. Sorry Mesor, already beat you to it. Introducing Vanya Carena, skulker elf:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Art by Splint

And she's been around since June, too.

@Draconk_Sankis: I'm pretty sure Corai knows about Vanya. But I got an evil grin reading how you added another Parasol researcher.

I hate that I'm late to this, but oh well.

edit:

There are no limits on race, but remember, you're dealing with dwarves here. Much like humans, they don't like anything that's not exactly like them.

Not so. It's been accepted into canon that in Spearbreakers, everyone is welcome. Shoot, we have a human as a farmer, for crying out loud. And an elf (Vanya), and a gnome (OG!Frog) who's been cloned (Busta!Frog), a couple other humans, at least one half-dwarf, a bunch of Parasol employees... And they let human "mercenaries" (Ballpoint soldiers) build the fortress during Splint's reign as overseer.

I'm hoping that you realized that... >.> Before Vanya left the fortress, we established that everyone who'd met her and knew what she was was completely fine with it. I did notice in some of your story posts that it seemed a bit off, but I don't know... Benefit of a doubt.

[zacen299]

Holy Balls people signed up for this fast....

[Splint]

You know what, I'll post to watch. I'm not shocked that, as word spread of suprising tolerance, other creatures are seeking asylum and are rightfully paranoid of the area around the fortress.
