I started up my
first second adventurer in a while.
My first adventurer melted in the wastelands he stopped by for the night.
This one has had zero contact with civilization, save his starting locale and his stop at a fort.
Speaking of starting location, my fort was by the northern tundras, and they started me in the bloody southern half! I had to wad through jungles and wastelands before getting to taigas and finally my home mountain range and Im just now leaving that. I've been ambushed by dingos, wolves, yeti, kobolds, sigh.
I have one more yeti drinking calmly by a brook, it looks like, and then the evil biome I settled on is huge and I think I have to cross that too, depending on the angle of my approach. Hard to tell with the map being how it is in adventure mode.
The motivation for this character is to try to 'migrate' to my healthy and recently abandoned fort, hopefully I can make it past the ogres and the infection of my middle toe doesn't kill me first.

Speaking of, I think I will either make a solitary string or encourage a community fort/adventure for the new updates. This really got me in the mode for it.

The human civ living by the tundra had a few nearby hamlets. Being a peasant, I cant recruit without doing at least one job, sometimes two or three. I muredereded some merlocks, human sized cannibals. Going back, I got an infected cheek, and several cool looking scars. I actually had to resort to chucking steel bolts at them after they broken my leg, but I didn't go full-cheese at least.
Anywho I had a friend, a hunter who resided in one of the hamlets. He was having a good time chasing ravens and whatnot when night fell we camped. Then this:
poor guy. Also turns out Im on the complete western end of the world, and my fort is a bit eastnortheast of my location.

Also I have a book now. It has secrets according to legends, but I dont think Im going to read it. :|
