Greetings, friends!
This is going to be community game based in DF 0.23.130.23a (a.k.a. the Boatmurdered edition).
The concept is thus: each player chooses one dwarf as their avatar. While they don't play the game, their in-character contributions and suggestions will shape the future of the fortress. I'll check in at least once a month, preferably once a week, to seek advice and help (as well as address the incessant nagging) of my fellow dwarves, but you don't have to know how to play Dwarf Fortress to take part!
I'm playing an unmodded copy of 23a on my Mac. I've currently set the population cap at 8 for a small, friendly feel, but I might increase it if more people join the game.
The characters are:
Kadol Zassavot (male)
Mechanic, Engineer, Novice Operator
*Player: teaontoast (i.e. me)*
Astesh Dumatomrist (female)
Wood Cutter, Fisherdwarf, Novice Carpenter
*Player: Toxicshadow*
Zasit Åblelzas (male)
Mason, Building Designer, Novice Stone Crafter
*Player: Glass*
Ilral Edëmenkos (female)
Swordsdwarf, Armor User, Novice Shield User
*Player: TheImmortalRyukan*
Urist Stukoskosak (male)
Skilled Miner
*Player: Maximum Spin*
Doren Ublathel (female)
Cook, Fish Cleaner, Novice Butcher
*Player: Enemy post*
Sigun ókoddom (male)
Brewer, Grower, Novice Animal Trainer
*Player: MottledPetrel*
Characters are doled out on a first come, first served basis. If you die, you can control the dwarf that replaces you, so long as there isn't a huge waiting list. If I die, control of the game passes to whoever is second in command at the time. Oh well. It was inevitable.
Please don't be a jerk, and please RP to some extent.
