[Zanzetkuken The Great]

@mastahcheese, We have actual fish - trilobites, ammonites, and sea ants, as sea vermin, and sea scorpions (and giant ones) as ocean predators that are aquatic. I think someone else posted some sea life, too, but I can't for the life of me remember who. Sackhead, perhaps?

I know I am making varieties of water-based dragons.

[WillowLuman]

Bear in mind there should be a higher amount of passive creatures than dangerous/annoying ones. This reduces the chance of embarks being immediately destroyed by the creatures already on the map.

[Gnorm]

Part 2: In which we conquer our first Summer

-----

From the journal of Gnorm, the halfling mayor of Mastertea, found at the ruins of the settlement:

11th Hematite, 551

Had to slaughter our pack beetle today for its meat, as we were running low on food. We didn't have much use for the beast anyway.

14th Hematite, 551

I've designated some areas to be dug underground for some more permanent stockpiles; these shall replace the small ones on the surface.



7th Malachite, 551

Due to the dangerous nature of any frontier, I have begun construction of a personal tomb for myself, should the worst befall me.



If I am to die, I must be buried within a complex, maze like cavern, where no one can find my body.

My men say that they have seen strange new halflings in the distance.

8th Malachite, 551



Migrants! here! already! I'm not sure how to react to the recent migration. I had no idea that word would spread of a settlement this quickly. Nevertheless, I must be professional in an event such as this. The migrants are as follows:

1 Presser
1 Wood Burner
1 Stonecrafter
1 Blacksmith
2 Aphidida Nymphs (I wonder how much meat are on them)
1 Woodcrafter
1 Potter

Our total population is now 13 halflings. Some of the migrants will not be able to make use of their current professions, though.

19th Malachite, 551

Ordered both the nymphs to be slaughtered. Their meat is necessary for the survival of this frontier.



Work on my tomb is progressing steadily.

14th Galena, 551



At last we have the beginning of an actual militia to defend this town (though I use the term loosely) from hostiles. I hope that we shall not have to make use of our captain for a while.

17th Galena, 551

At last! the diplomat and the merchant caravan have come! I have ordered immediate preparations to trade our goods for theirs.



19th Galena, 551



The diplomat began his meeting, and desired to know what we require to survive. I gave him the basic list: food, seeds, weapons, wood, etcetera. In return, he told me that there was a shortage of certain items in the capital, and that they would pay top dollar for them next year.



I'm not sure what use figurines have, but I shan't question it. After our discussion, the diplomat wished me luck and left.

28th Galena, 551

This shall be my last entry this season. The work on the first real building in our village (the dining hall) is slowly progressing. It shall hopefully be done early this Autumn.



We are ready to trade with the merchants, a task that I shall undertake shortly.



My tomb is officially finished! It contains eight engravings around my coffin, mainly of plants, the symbol of "The Mighty Halflings" (two stinkweed), and the symbol of our parent civilization (four pumpkins). In addition, two statues by me (one of an historical hound-slaying; another of two pack beetles) are featured. Finally, there is a stone coffer for my personal possessions.



May the coming season usher in new progress to our evolving frontier!

[kopout]

Hugo, are you working on the dirigible antelope or am I?

[kopout]

gazelles don't burst into flame on embark any more

Newest part of Gnorm's story added to front page.

I'm trying to think of new ways to manage all the chaos. Here's something that may or may not happen depending on if something more important comes up, not very functional yet but I may personally use it for quick searches:

The script detects invalid tokens by comparing them to a DF stringdump. Apparently "NATURAL" is not there in unencrypted form. I wonder if it works anymore?

Script - obviously works by default only for linux with kate:

[WillowLuman]

Hugo, are you working on the dirigible antelope or am I?

I'll finish them. Send me what you have so far, I want to add some variations to them.

[kopout]

ok, can I just finish up the legs for them (and other ungulates)?

[WillowLuman]

Sure.

[kopout]

legs appear to work. Their are no attacks for them yet though.

to do:

-create attacks for ungulate limbs
-test and make sure hooves work properly
-(optional) reduce thickness of bones making them brittle
-(optional) add syndrome to lift gas reducing speed and adding "deflating" to the name

[WillowLuman]

Feel free to work on other Ungulates. The floating variety won't be grounded enough to kick, and their legs will be too atrophied, so it doesn't make much sense.

[kopout]

I gave 'em front legs but not hind legs because I figured they would need to be able to make contact with the ground to feed

[Ora_the_Owlish]

Posting to watch. This makes for a fascinating read

I gave 'em front legs but not hind legs because I figured they would need to be able to make contact with the ground to feed

They'll drift past the trees and eat leaves. Should they be tamed, they probably won't be [GRAZER]'s, needing hand-feeding. That, or they'll wind up starving cause halflings don't know how to take care of them.

Probably there'll be a [GRAZER] species called "telescopic dirigible antelope" who can reach the ground from the air.

huh. Though wouldn't they need some kind of grabbing legs to hold onto the tree? Otherwise they'd just drift on by. And fins to maneuver through the air.
