Comedy Show at The Skinny Inn, starring, The Bearded beetles!
« on: August 05, 2008, 12:32:02 am »







----------

"At last, we are here!" exclaimed Tulon Fencedfords, stage manager of The Bearded Beetles.

"But where is the inn?",  said Mafol, one of the comedians.

"Over here, there's something in the snow!", shouted another comedian.

"What is it?", said Tulon

"It appears to be a sign, The skinny inn.", said the servent Ducim. "The place must have been abandoned long ago.

"What about the comedy show?", said Reg the comedian.

"It's cancelled, you fool! And we're stuck out here!", said Ducim.

"Shut up Ducim." said Reg, "I can still fire you!"

"If you fire me, you won't survive a week out in this place!

"Settle down you two,"said the stage manager. "If we're stranded out here, we should build a shelter out of the materials we brought to make the set.I'll start digging a basement, the rest of you can build a small wooden shelter."

And so it began.

------------

This is a game similar to Nist Akath, but instead of starting with useful dwarves, I started with 2 guys who have somewhat useful jobs, and 5 worthless comedians. If you want to be dwarved, just ask.

And you're starting on a glacier, whereas Nist Akath is in the much more hospitable tundra.

Well, good luck.  You're gonna need it.


Since you're on a glacier, I recommend husbandry as your main source of food.  Also, stuff seems to deteriorate very quickly out in the open...  Make sure to keep perishables inside.

What do you mean, husbandry?

All that's on the map are ice wolves atm. I don't think im going to survive this one, and I think I might redo this on a desert or somewhere else.

Nice idea!

You could book the group in for a gig at a goblin fortress or something. Then have them dig in and hide from the goblins, who ran them out of town for telling such awful jokes... only for the axle of their wagon to break so they had to dig in and hide rather than run.

I like this idea very very much.

So I'd like to have one of the comedians. Name him (must be male) (What the hell, he/she can be even the female dwarf-incarnate of) (Charlie) Chaplin. (S)he should generate some funny-esque moments.

A doomed community fort based on comedians.  Cool.

Make me a comedian, one that speaks like a leet counterstrike player.
