Prologue:My name is Urist McFuzzy, and I am the soon-to-be leader of the newest outpost from the Mountainhomes, Astoltot "Caveravens". I am keeping this journal for two reasons: If I die, I want other Dwarves to know what happened. Or, and this is me being optimistic, for use in my memoirs when I strike it rich off of Adamantine. Anyways, before we left the Mountainhomes, I was a great Smith! Armor, Weapons, whatever! If it was made out of metal, I could smith it. But enough about me, let me go over the...group of "professionals" that are accompanying me towards the spot that we plan on founding Caveravens.
There's me of course:
My Smithing skills should come in useful in making Caveravens great!
Urist McSnook:
Honestly, he's much more qualified to be the leader than me. Regardless, until my year of command is up (as per the rules of Dwarvern government), he can use his skills as an Engraver that he must've picked up as a youth. He might get the next spot, maybe not. Let's see how he does this year.
Urist McHammerdwarf:
McHammerdwarf is our main protection in these Untamed Wilds. I don't know how useful his skills with a hammer will be, especially considering we don't have a Hammer. (Okay, that was a mistake on my part. I didn't even realize that until I got here to write it up...Oh well, should be Fun.)
Urist McMiner (This was the open Dwarf. If you want it, tell me and I'll rename her. And if you couldn't tell, I gave us another miner.):
She is really no one special. Just a miner that was sent along to help us dig out our outpost. She's real quiet, and I don't think anyone knows anything about her except her profession.
Kipi:
She's our Mason, but she's good with our Battleaxe. Maybe she can put it to good use cutting down some trees for us to make Beds out of. I don't see why we can't have stone beds...(Okay, the bottom part of the map I chose was Forest, not scarse. I tried to find the old spot, but I couldn't, and this was a good spot with a Flux, so I took it.)
Marzen:
He's our other miner, but from what he says he good with mechanical things like levers and stuff. Might be useful if combined with Dwarvern ingenuity!
And finally, a Dwarf that claims his name is Z:
I assume the Z is short for something. Who knows, maybe his parents were sober when he was born and that was the only name they could think of. Either way, he's a Doctor. Should come in useful.
Okay, I've got to stop writing because we are about to leave. Before I stop, here's our inventory:
And a map of the place:
I'll start writing again when we arrive.
1st of Granite, 1051:And we've arrived. Can't say much now because it's getting too dark to see. We'll start to unpack everything in the morning. Hope those Giant Jaguars I've been hearing inhabit the reason don't stumble upon us...
