Journal of Raptor, Overseer of Murdermachines Reclamation Force
2nd HematiteWell, I had a look at what our elven friends had the decency not to get too much blood on, and I found these two:
What the hell are we supposed to do with them? I guess we could set them up linked to pressure plates to be released as a trap, but everyone around here is too busy.
Maybe the next poor sod to run this place will do something about it.
4th HematiteOh shit. I went down to the danger room today to train, and, when I walked in, I saw the dead body of Maxwell Edison. Apparently he'd been lying there since Felsite, when one of those spears jammed his skull into his brain. That was unpleasant to look at. I need someone to haul the body, before it begins to rot.
8th HematiteThe Mad Fool came up to me in the hallway today, and asked if he could be the Chief Medical Dwarf. I almost said no, but then I realized that if he was in charge of the hospital then any "experiments" he performed would get cleaned up faster by the medical staff, and he wouldn't be tempted to use me as a test subject. He claimed that his current body (which is a woman, by the way) is a great diagnostician, but I'm skeptical. After I appointed him, he ran away, looking for a lab coat.
17th HematiteGah! I told the idiots to keep the door tightly closed, but did they listen? Nooo. A blue peachick got into the danger room today, and was promptly impaled. I hope nobody liked the damned thing.
25th HematiteOh Armok save us. I was looking at the artifacts in the fortress, and one depicts a book entitled "The Voidspawn For The Beginning Practitioner". I really hope that book doesn't exist, or else we're gonna be in a world of pain.
26th HematiteDortimus has grown attached to his cloak! Fetishist.
25th MalachiteOver the course of the last few days, Prosnorkulus has become a mace lord, Tryrar has become a swordsmaster, and SanDiego has become a hammer lord. Our military is shaping up!
27th MalachiteMigrants! More of the souls of our brethren now can cross into this world. In total, the newly arrived bodysnatchers are:
AseaHeru
Baltharaaz
Brokenmind
Pitchblende
UristMcDead
2nd GalenaScaliper has become a spearmaster! He seemed so happy when I talked to him.
3rd GalenaTryrar has grown attached to a larch short sword. This isn't good. He can't use a wooden sword forever...
7th GalenaOh shit. Shitshitshit.
Prosnorkulus is injured. Dammit, where is The Mad Fool when you need him?
10th GalenaProsnorkulus is in the hospital, and out of danger, thankfully. I just hope he gets treated soon. An attack could happen at any time.
15th GalenaSo, I was heading down to train in the danger room, and I heard a scream. I went to check it out, and I saw the ghost of noodle0117, standing over the still-warm corpse of our manager! I ran for the masons straight away, to see if anyone could make a slab, but they are all of on other work or in the military. Shit.
20th GalenaKobolds showed up today. I was going to send out the Void God to handle them, but then an Olm Man chased them off the premises!
OOC: And such ends Summer. I was really not expecting noodle's ghost to come back and start killing people, but I've learned my lesson.
