Well, Armorsmith I see, I'm sure i'll be making my own armor in the near future once I get a few bars and other stuff. Seeing the owned stuff people have, I'll have to bargain my way into getting the bars or earn them. Anyway, Would it be possible to get a miner to dig out a forge for me as i'll be needing it to make armor and other metal related things?

[Cain12]

My turn will be spent making the forge and whatever it is I need to make fuel for it or whatever. Then producing some fuel, don't have much metal so I guess I should wait til I know who is better at making armor and how rp goes to decide who can use my bars for that. Any spare time can be spent doing odd jobs. Would like to make a sword but I can't for the life of me find how many bars that will cost me, and just making the forge will cost me.

If Erlof was active I would try to trade for his marble so I could save on metal.

[kero42]

I suppose I'll make bone crafts from the goat to sell to the merchants.

[RabidAnubis]

I am here now.  Are we doing bi yearly meetings?  Can you add my chart to the influence OP http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/happyhobo2000/InfluenceDFRPG-2.png ?

Trade- Accepting

Well, Armorsmith I see, I'm sure i'll be making my own armor in the near future once I get a few bars and other stuff.

Anyway, Would it be possible to get a miner to dig out a forge for me as i'll be needing it to make armor and other metal related things?

I will dig it out for you, in return for a helmet of iron or better.

Trade- asking for

I would like a way to use my mining and my gemmaking to gain 7 wood of the same type please.

To the overseer

I would like to dig out 5 connected 4x4 rooms, with the connection running along the top..  The first will be my office, the next one will be my jewler, the next one will be my gem stockpile, then bedroom, then my tomb.  Have to start making end of life preperations now.  I know I don't have any materials to fill them up.  Place as is convenient, but put under the protection of the fort ( so connecting to the main fort, can be further underground, but please don't fill my house with aquifer water).  I'll add rooms for my kids later.  This will probably end up being my personal palace, so please place conveniently for the long term!

After this, I would like to give my labors to the overseer so long as he doesn't try to kill me.

[Hahayeah]

Yeah sure, Helmet of Iron it is. I got Cain to let me borrow his forge in case I want to use it for metalsmithing and armorsmithing. So once rabid digs out the forge, I'd like if someone gave me iron bars or ore. I still have no bedroom so i'll have to sleep on the hard ground.

To be accurate I offered to arrange to let you use it, I will of course have my own terms. Also since Zargoth died you can probaly take her room.

[neblime]

I guess I should peek in here to say Neblime will still be a peasant, and I'll be starting a new season soon.

I still have no bedroom so i'll have to sleep on the hard ground.

there are communal bedrooms in the hovel, enough for everyone.

I am here now.  Are we doing bi yearly meetings?  Can you add my chart to the influence OP http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/happyhobo2000/InfluenceDFRPG-

i'll ask tele to add it, meetings are seasonal.

Who's doing what:
Neblime, Teledwarf, Elorf: peasant work
Keroe: Make bone crafts
Rigor: sorry but you still can't collect any clay until you acquire some firesafe stone, attempting to dig underpass under the river.
Cain:Making forge, (for fuel you'll need a wood furnace for charcoal or a smelter for making coal into coke, either of which would also require an iron bar or other fire safe material.  do you want to use an iron bar?)
Raziel:beg for iron bars.
Kalkor:dig out personal rooms (no problem to add them to the current hovel, but do you want to wait until the aquifer is pierced?)

Spoiler: skill rundown as requested (click to show/hide)

I'll generally ignore dabbling skills or unremarkable low level skills (like grower or whatever)
Rigor Gazcubor: Master miner, competent engraver, novice potter, adequate herbalist
Kalkor gemstrike: Competent hammerdwarf, novice shield+armor user + dodger, Skilled miner
Keroe: Talented carpenter, novice cook+butcher+bonecarver
Cain: Talented woodcutter, adequate furnace operator+weaponsmith+metalsmith, Novice armorsmith
Teledwarf: Novice speardwarf+armor user + dodger + Wrestler + fighter +animal caretaker +animal trainer
Raziel: Adequate armorsmith
Elorf: Adequate mason, competent mechanic, Competent building designer
Neblime: Novice building designer, proficient organizer, talented record keeper
NPC skills: a competent swordsdwarf/novice carpenter, 2 novice farmers (various skills) 2 novice fisherdwarfs and 4 skilless children

[Cain12]

Will use an iron bar since I don't see any actives to give me anything, will go with a wood furnace.

Edit:Or I harvest like 1/whatever clay or something, clay is fire safe right? If not then I will just go with the bar.

[neblime]

Edit:Or I harvest like 1/whatever clay or something, clay is fire safe right? If not then I will just go with the bar.

again, we need a fire safe block to build a kiln to order collection of clay, and no one is willing to commit one to that purpose as yet (also i think you might have to turn the clay into a brick to use it for that.. not sure)
rabidanubis i still want to know if you want to wait for the aquifer for your rooms before i start

[RabidAnubis]

Yeah pierce the aquifer first.  It's for the good of the fortress.

(EDIT: Could you add a picture of the current fort at the end of your next entry?)

[sal880612m]

On that note feel free to put me to work on piercing the aquifer.

Diary of Neblime Zanegthad 1st moonstone 100
Work still goes painfully slow, so I was glad to hear that some more migrants had arrived.
We gained four farmers of various low level skills, one ranger and three children.
At some point one of our other farmers decided all those bones were just begging to be made into something

Spoiler: value 4800 (click to show/hide)

Rigor completed an underpass under the river.  what use that is is questionable as the water is shallow enough for any creature to cross it

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Still maybe one day we can deepen the river...
At last the merchants from the mountainhomes arrive.  Keroe seems intent on trading with them.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

work on the aquifer continues.  We have pierced one level, who knows how many remain (at least 1), and bedrooms are required for all these migrants to avoid unrest.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: OOC (click to show/hide)

population increased, so influence pool increases by 8.
"the tempted joys" also adds two to the influence pool
Who owns what:
Cain:3 iron bars, 11 logs of various trees, 1 forge room with iron metalsmith's forge and smelter
Teledwarf: Suit of Iron armor + Iron spear
Elorf: 5 Bronze bars 5 coke 10 marble
Keroe:1 sandstone block, palm training axe, 4800 worth of goat bone crafts
Rigor: Steel pick, 1 longland grass, 1 prickle berry, 4 wild strawberry seeds
Kalkor Gemstrike:Copper pick
Raziel:nothing
post what you want to do for the next season, AND if you want to trade for anything with the caravan.  If you want to know if they have something just ask but i'm not going to go to the trouble of listing everything they have here.

[neblime]

Neblime will remain a peasant for this season (i'm thinking I'll just do that the whole time i'm overseer)
On that note, when we vote for overseer does everyone get 1 vote or is it based on influence? (more of a question for tele but since he's not around what do you guys think?  I prefer influence I think.)

[sal880612m]

Just dig away until I get a fire safe stone. Don't particularily care what I dig at this point.

I have no issue with influence but I would prefer something along the lines of 0 being 0 votes, 1-10 being 1, 11-20 being 2 .... and so on. The specifics of such a thing being arbitrary. Ie, I don't care if you want 1-20 to be 1, and then 21-30 to be 2 and 31-40 to be 3 or 21-40 being 2.

well in that case i'll use you for the aquifer as well, as that's how we're going to get any firesafe stone.

yeah well how about every 10 is 1 vote?
