[Ahra]

dwarves later said that an loud screaming and thuds from Ahras room, when someone investigated there was an hole shaped like an helmet halfway into the next room, witnesses says he was screaming he would strangle the goddamn noble

[Scaraban]

Found carved into a small stone gear in Towersoared prison:
He knows! The Duke KNOWS! He will stop at nothing to keep us from completing Project Control. I must warn Martini but I can't move than a Urist from this ARMOK-FORSAKEN CHAIN!!!!!!
I don't know how he found out about Project, but now that it has ground to a halt he will know one of this group is key to it's completion...
The only saving grace is that another Mechanic was caught in his net as well.
I pray he does not discover me.
OOC: Am I legendary? I can't recall

[Urist Imiknorris]

If somebody could arrange a terrible accident to befall the Duke while I'm in prison, I would be most grateful. Non-fatal, of course. What good is teaching someone a lesson if they're too dead to learn from it?

[Triaxx2]

This is horrible! I suggest Derm be temporarily made into a wood cutter that he may put the fear of TOWERSOARED! into those foul trees. Teach those leafy bastards to block in our miners.

From Monty's jail cell there arose a terrible chanting. Her eyes had turned red and she was saying something. Anyone who got close heard this:
"I see the fortress in flames
n army that devoured the mouatain homes will draw near.
 Ht last scion of Boatmurdred id nearly here.
 Their fate willb e ours.
If we do not follow the lead of of Blockedlance and declare our indpendence.
But we must be careful not to go to far down their path.
Our we shall join them in darkness.

DOOM TO ALL WHO FOLLOW THE NOBILTY.

She said this every other day,all dyaand could never rember it the next

[Indricotherium]

Indri covered his ears to drown out the shouts of rage and the chanting. He was bewildered by his imprisonment. Sword selling? He hadn't touched a sword in his entire life! Even to cut large swathes of silk! Everyone knew a nice kobold dagger was the thing for that. He halfheartedly pulled at the manacle binding his ankle and sighed. He hoped no-one messed with his loom while he was away. He hoped Cog knew he had nothing to do with all of this. The more he thought, the more irritated he became. He resolved to keep his best silks for the hardworking dwarfs of the fortress! For the Duke, nothing but rope reed cloth! The scratchiest!

Cog’s Journal, 23rd of  Sandstone 319

The second cave level is officially getting a bit crowded.  Not as crowded as our jail is right now though.

Maybe they’ll kill each other off. 

Cog’s Journal, 12th of Timber 319

The dwarven caravan arrived on our borders today as did the latest new liaison.  I’ve stopped even worrying about what these imbeciles think since mountain home has decimated the ranks of the diplomatic corps.  As long as they take our requests, the rest can go hang. 

I’m going to be extra careful to not export anything the duke likes this year.  I’d really like to keep everyone out of prison.  Derm and his squad are heading out to meet them as usual.

Cog’s Journal, 23rd of Timber 319

The hanging tower is nearly completed.  Today the floor on the magma was completed, leaving only the bridges and fortifications one level up.  And of course the details involving stocking the tower still remain. 

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I think we’ll mostly be carving combat fortifications on other cave levels; this took a long time to complete.  But the results are well worth it.  Work is resuming on the outer wall project now, but the rest of the tower should be done before the year is out.   

I’m still casting about for a way to punish the duke for his transgressions without putting my own neck on the chopping block.  Another stern warning was left for me shortly after this year’s liaison arrived.  I can’t kill him.  Nothing was said about maiming however. 

OOC: The year is progressing.  Most named dwarves are in prison now and the sentences are slowly ticking down.  I’m up for creative, non fatal punishments for the duke.  Obviously his pet rats aren’t sufficient. 

@Ahra: Yeah, that’s about how I feel.

@Scaraban: Yup, you are decidedly legendary.  He was very vicious this time.

@Urist Imiknorris: I’ll see what I can do. Any suggestions for non fatal accidents?

@Triaxx2: Oh, our two legendary woodcutters are taking care of that quite efficiently. 

@mcclay: Nice one!

@Indricotherium: I’ll see what I can do.  I’m not sure I can specifically assign clothing to him since he is nobility.

If you can catch a goblin in a cage, strip him of his weapons then accidentally release him in the duke's room...

[breadbocks]

I demand Martini trap the damnable duke into his room, and dump just short of the amount of water needed to drown him.

[Urist Imiknorris]

A single wooden spike. Stab him once with it. Maybe arrange for him to watch as you atomsmash every non-masterwork amulet and melt every short sword in the fort.

Can we see the bastard's personality screen? It might give me some ideas.

[Dermonster]

I SHALL ROUT TO HIM ALL OF THE SENTIENT PAPERWORK WHICH IS BREEDING UNDER MY DESK

[Urist Imiknorris]

Bothering By the Book?

[Dermonster]

The damn book has been gnawing at my legs, so a bit, yeah.

[breadbocks]

The Monster book of Monsters?

[Dermonster]

OH GOD THEY'VE LEARNED HOW TO USE PAPERCLIPS AS WEAPONS! BARRICADE THE DOORS AND HIDE THE CHILDREN Workform 26-b IS LEADING A CAVALRY CHARGE!

*Staple gun click*

Clever girl.

i have also just realized a couple posts too late that this is most definitely NOT Nomekast and in this game I am not the workload bearing yet still badass sheriff.

SO it appears that in an attempt to make a funny joke in a community game I have accidentally confused a situation my dwarf is in in another game with this one.

Solution: I could stare at him intently for about 5 seconds, he bursts into flames, everyone's happy.
