Look around to find the legendary adamantine of dwarf fortress fame and Absorb it, making me indestructible.

Head deeper into the dwarven city and see whats going on in those parts.

(6) Well...good news and bad news. Bad news is you slip and comically tumble down a set of stairs. Good news is you land in a mosh pit-ish storage of gold, gems and other metals.

Two things get blasted on the news. The first is that the local water tower fell in today. The second is that there’s a guy in space running an interplanetary presidential campaign. Feel free to interpret those situations as you see fit.

Thank the farmer and head out to investigate the missing water tower.

(4) You set off with little to no interference. You should get there in...2 turns.

(3) Your search covers a lot of ground, but to no beneficial effect. The dwarves get a little suspicious of you.

Grab a few of the gold ingots and head further into the city.

Oh, shoot. I missed a turn. I was wondering what was taking the turn so long ...

Lessee. Check my foodstocks to see if I have meat. The more the better. Gotta bring gifts to the hungry. If I don't have meat, send a crew up in the hip to a farming planet or ranch planet to get some. Meanwhile, arrange a bit of a vaudeville show with our various lifeforms to entertain and educate! See the incredible metal eating bugs! Discover the wonders of light saber technology! explore the mysteries of gambling and booze! Let's show these plant guys what the galaxy is all about, at least as it will be under my malevolent rule!

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

(ETA 1 turn) (edited due to suggestions)
You arrive at the scene. Before you is a large gaping hole.

Grab a few of the gold ingots and head further into the city.

(4) You sneak some gold ingots into your pockets. Going deeper into the city seems to lead to most of the dwarven workplaces, mostly for crafting items, a couple for cooking food for the community dining room, the entrance to the mines, and a spot where trading is supposed to happen.

(5) Bingo! A bunch of storage containers just loaded with meat. You offer the meat and a show to the creatures (hidden) to which all of them express fierce curiosity, so you set up a makeshift theatre.
(3) Nobody seems very impressed or disappointed with the show, instead they simply ask more questions through mouthfuls of meat
(hidden) The questions are quite hard to make out though, as everyone seems to be trying to shout over each other.

New player?! How exciting! Welcome!

(5) Your perseverance leads you to the entrance of the mines. Good place to start.
(Hidden) A dwarf in heavy plate armor blocks the entrance with a hulking battle ax while asking you what business you have here.

((Quick question for all: As you all may have noticed, I tried to make traveling actions take multiple turns to finish based on distance vs character speed. I probably should have asked if that was okay first. What do you guys think?))

((I'd say not to make travel take extra turns, simply because this is a weekly game and that drags player actions out, making active players feel like they have to wait twice as long to participate. Since we really don't have a need to coordinate in terms of time or whatnot, it feels unnecessary. The exception would be if a player is heading to where another player is involved in combat or other time sensitive activities. For those, roll for whether they get there in time, and if they don't, either give them something else to do while they attempt to arrive, or simply tell them they'll have to wait until the combat resolves to participate. Also, if you have, say, 4 or more actions ready at the week, I'd suggest going ahead and posting a turn. Most players can miss a turn without falling behind, really, and that keeps the pace of the game up a little.))

Arrange some staff to answer various questions, and organize a theater troupe to put on more informative and entertaining plays about galactic history and how great I am.
Determine if the rock eaters would be viable asteroid miners, or if they would end up eating all the profitable ores and such instead.

((Alright then. No more travel ETA it is. Also the main reason why it became weekly is pretty much different wording for what you explained.))
