[Dozebôm Lolumzalìs]

Jamek, a farmer. Dorf Humie me please.

[Dunamisdeos]

Done, and done. Time to start things up!!

I can already confirm that goblins are active on this world. The elves have already been attacked, despite the goblins having only 120ish population.

BLAZECOOKS III has been founded by the Group of Dragons!!!

Some of the family names you guys got are rad as hell. I plan to make sure that any children also contain that surname as a matter of record-keeping. We have embarked in a warm valley between three hills. There is a small river and trees. Our closest neighbors are an elven civilization, but the goblins are only a few tiles past that.

Some of you have multi-skilled by necessity. For instance, our Miner is also an architect, and our animal trainer is also a minor in farming. Since there were no takers for the last of the starting 7, my wife grabbed it up and named our carpenter Eva (The irony of her first thought is not lost upon me). Since LordBrassRoast's militia commander has low agility, we gave them some proficiency in armor use and shield use with only novice in dodge. Getting everything set up proper and finding a site combined with updating the thread took up most of today's hour. 

Strike the earth!!!

[Dunamisdeos]

It wasn't even summer before the Kobolds showed up. I hope we get this level of goblin activity later.

We got some really neat names randomly generated for our starting 7. Some homes and a granary have been built near a Trade Depot.

Militia Commander LordBrassRoasts has a small barracks set up in their cabin. Training will begin posthaste.

[LordBrassroast]

What is my last name?

[Dunamisdeos]

What is my last name?

It's in the OP post. All of the names and stats of everyone are in the OP post.  It's Honorknighted. That makes your name "Lord Brass-Roast Honorknighted". That is a fantastic name.

You should check the OP post if you're interested in up-to-the-minute events, I often just edit it in real time to avoid clutter.

Also, this happened.

 "Queen Amperzand the Confusingly Purple-Skinned"

.....She then immediate banned the export of figurines.

[DAPARROT]

LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!

[Amperzand]

WELP.

"We demand a better pickaxe! Also, all our rooms need to be absurdly large and full of valuable shit!"

Seriously though, this is hilarious.

Edit; "She hates those who wield power over others." HAHAHAhahaha, well, welcome to the Royal Communist Fortress of Blazecooks.

You immediately banned the export of figurines. By necessity, construction is beginning on some kind of wooden mead-hall to house you in.

[Sanctume]

The important question is, do we have hemp seeds to plant? Or maybe cotton if it's in the tropics.  Olive trees would be nice for soap too!

It wasn't an option! 
Anyway, more updates later today.

[Sanctume]

Those cabins are lovely.  I hope Sanctumea gets married soon at age 26 and pops out babies yearly.

[LordBrassroast]

*Heavily Russian Accented*

My comrades, the dirty capitalist pig-dogs must not have the GLORIOUS FIGURINES produced by the Confederacy of Matchstick Socialist Republics!

*All Glory to Communist Miner Figurine Queen Amperzand*

[Dunamisdeos]

Honestly, I want to know what happened to the King. They had one of those until yesterday.

[LordBrassroast]

Maybe he got drunk and was killed while hunting?

Also what weapon am I using? Sword, axe, hammer?

As of right now, you are using a sword. A training sword. We just got a smith as a migrant, soon we will get you outfitted with real gear.

Also, Sanctume has been promoted to Broker. He happened to be the random villager to handle the trading, and went straight up to competent appraiser.

In other news, Daparrot has become enraged at all enemies. There are no enemies. There has been no combat. He is, regardless, quite angry about it.

Spoiler:  So angry!!! (click to show/hide)

You can also see the Mead Hall being constructed, while her highness Amperzand supervises.
Side rooms are included for bookkeepers, managers, etc.

After he finished stomping about, I found the reason for his behavior.

Spoiler: Mystery Solved (click to show/hide)

Apparently, he very much enjoyed the experience. He's like Gordon Ramsey mixed with Old Macdonald.

Also, construction has begun on housing for migrants. They have smaller hovels as opposed to cabins by logic of space. A palisade was also constructed around the village.

Queen Amperzand is a merciless taskmaster. Back-to-back demands for MORE FIGURINES have been made.

UPDATE 12/11/15
Nothing much happened. Construction continues on various projects. I did find that we have an embark-wide aquifer. HOWEVER, a very small part of the map freezes. Queen Amperzand got about halfway through before it thawed. She wigged out so much she climbed out of the hole and up a tree.

Spoiler: Like a cat (click to show/hide)

She only came down when she got hungry.

Music and Singing was first witnessed in BLAZECOOK!!! It looks like some form of musical storytelling horrific primordial chanting. And by "some form" I mean "Absurdly Complicated". Also, we have an "Ithros" which seems like a 12-pipe pan-flute by description.

Spoiler: An Epic Story? (click to show/hide)

Sorry if it's a little hard to read. Let me know and I can try and get a clearer view.

Oh hey, the Mead Hall portion of the Mead Hall was completed. They named it "The Rhyming Lemon".

The amount of news the Liason just brought is pages long. The gist of it is that there is a goblin warband that just sacked Relievedwhiskers, another settlement in our civilization. The leaders of this band are as follows:

Spoiler:  The GOBLIN MENACE (click to show/hide)

Kisnast Rhymepants The Matched Cyclone of Bands
Fayoba Spirerogue
Sodor Mischiefpaddled
Ipan Rulercrescents
Naquithe Crossmined

LordBrassRoast is going to start training a militia. I'm sure they'd be headed here eventually.

Last thing: Mead Hall is complete. It contains a 2z-tall common area overlooked by a throne on a raised dais, a cellar for storage, 4 rentable rooms for travelers, and an upper story with vaulted ceilings containing the Queen's Bedroom, Dining Hall, and Personal Armory. Pictures to come.
