I saw Ases in that crowd as well. What'd she do during the battle?

Bonus stupidity o/



As for Ases, she was...effective. She just shank them ghetto style and it seems to work

"Stonetraps" joke is awesomely hilarious!

Actually, is putting me in queue for dorfing possible? Preferably man (woman okay as well), fighter/archer, young and unmarried? Any rules on names? "Satheth" / "Sath" (for short) sounds quite good and at least somewhat resembles forum name.

The name should make sense. At the least make it something translatable into Human, if you don't pop open the language file and do the translating yourself.

And damn, I'm loving that combat log. Ases (I pronounce it Aces.) is an asskicker.

This is amazing.  The artwork and storytelling make it top-notch.

I'd like to be humaned if possible as a socially awkward eccentric who trains exotic war animals and/or makes traps, whichever suits your playstyle better.  All his social interactions should involve bluntly stating exactly the wrong thing to say to the listener.  Named Digo, I guess?

I have a few children that came to age this year, so you can be dorfed with no problem. This is especially cool since I actually need a mechanic too. Your characters will still have to attend our ...school program (?) but they will be ingame starting from year 140 !

Also, on names, Ases pretty much explained it. There is no real rule, except it should sound credible as to not to break the fourth wall. Basically, it has to be something identifiable as a name , as opposed for exemple as a forum pseudonym

IndigoFenix could be translated as blue bird and there might be an in-game human equivalent for that.

Aroica is BlueEagle.

Aroeman is BlueBird. Took me a second to figure out how to find bird from blue.

Well, IndigoFenix, the choice is yours o/ Digo is fine tho, but if you want to change you still can

On a minor note, I've been working on your dorfin' designs



Aaaand on a list of clans for Watershield, for easy reference and to avoid inbreeding by trying to woo a girl that might be a cousin. Luckily, no inbreeding so far in the fortress.

I don't think the game counts it as in-breeding outside of immediate family. Mom, dad, brothers and sisters. Maybe Aunts and Uncles. And the game does a hard no on any of that.

Alright so a few questions before I get to writing, first off who was the "Brother" being mentioned between the three ladies (is like their names as well)? And two, has Zefer the legendary goblin tosser had any of the ladies offering lunch to him? With those out of the way onto writing.


Diary of Zefer Scribefondled,
It seems that with each passing year I gain a need for protecting my family, my father growing older and still in that aquifer makes me worry that he would be the next cadaver in the water..it was tainted not so long ago by a fisherwoman...another face in Watershield that I seem to fail at protecting, I became a knight not so long ago, more rigorous exercises and the like...my sister is still behind me in the improvement factors...yet my heart swell with pride at every foe she faces gets sliced onto thin fleshy strips... I have noticed that my training has been getting boring and that oddly enough I am far exceeding the expectations of a knight. If maybe soon, I can get my own squad and a fresh batch of recruits to call my soldiers... It is a hopeful dream as much as one that i hold within my beating heart...that someone pierces me with affection...someone that my father or sister could be proud of...
Is that a little much...diary? That I one day have a family of my own? I guess it will be a fleeting dream, after all...I was made to fight and bring pride to Watershields...to Stop a war with these goblins, Dwarves and now...elfin kind. It has been a long day for me.
-Zefer

So from left to right in the first pannel, their names would be : Sirris, Donu and Ebkusa. The brother in question would be Sas, who's one of Zefer fellow knights. Also while I don't think Zefer had any luck with the ladies so far, he's in age of being married, and in medieval times, that's what the parents are for. If you wish to propose to a lady, just mention it. Some common sense rules - she must be over eighteen, not blood related (so basically no one from the Jalew or Asin clans) and if the girl in question is either a dorf or the daughter of a dorf, I'll need the consent of its player

Also nice ! Thanks a lot for the writing ! I'll focus a bit more on Zefer

Ases and her fellow soldiers waded into the fierce melee around Slada. Ases didn't care why Slada was surrounded by goblins. She simply intended to do something about it. Beside her fellows, she reached the breach and began hacking and kicking away. Enemy limbs broke, or flew away before her and her mighty longsword. Ases was having such a wonderful time, she didn't even notice the passage of time during the battle. It felt like an eyeblink before the enemies were running or limping away screaming. Those they hadn't killed, anyway. She looked down at her blood-soaked sword and whispered, "still thirsty, little brother?"

She shrugged and wiped it clean before sheathing it. She knew swords couldn't talk, and so hadn't expected an answer. She did feel she was getting closer to naming it.

I thought marriage was a lot more autonomous in this series, Ya know the game would do the marriage itself. Who are all of our dorfed/hooman'd females?

Design for Satheth is looking real awesome! Can't wait to see it completed

Two questions:
Is it possible to learn some more about him? Maybe slight bits about family?
Who was dorfed as Sirris? I'll reread things, but I did not see any hint on this
