Would it be possible for me to claim a dwarf?

Male if possible but it is not too important.

Trapper/hunter/animal trainer/shooter of things. Spends his time in the more deserted areas of the fort when not boozing and telling tall tales in the dinning hall.

He is a jovial fellow, even though he is a bit of a loner, scruffy, gruff and an EPIC drunk even by dwarf standards.

Goes by the name of John

This is my first community fort, and I would like to try my hand at some drunkin' dwarf journals.

I've already said what my dwarf is doing for the nest few months.
I think when she gets out of prision she will become this fortresses oracle. When she is not on active duty.

[Triaxx2]

AWESOME. What's the blue stuff around the edges of the magma pool?

[Urist Imiknorris]

That holiest of minerals. Microcline.

OOC: RAAGGGEEEE!!!!

The game just crashed epically on me.  It took out my save game completely and totally in the process of generating the autosave for the beginning of winter.  I've tried everything I can to recover it but it's gone.  The last backup is from the beginning of autumn so I haven't lost too much thank the gods. 

The important aspect of this crash is the jail sentences because they haven't happened yet in this new parallel universe.  The trading was already done when this save was generated but the mandate hasn't been enacted yet.  The question is twofold now.  Will the baron enact his mandate before the year turns over?  And if he does who will get the sentances this time? 

The sad part about this is all your reactions were fantastic!  But in all honesty, I'm quite prepared to apply non- punishment to this universes duke in response to what the one in the other universe did.  Hopefully I'll get things caught back up with some new in the next few days.  I've replayed through to the caravan departure so far, nothing out of the ordinary.  Martini was rescued again and Derm got issued his masterwork adamantine armor right on schedule. 

That's all I can face redoing right now but I'll have us caught back up on Friday.  Nothing tomorrow since I won't have computer access. 

@Urist Imiknorris: A single shot from a wood spike might work.  I'll see what I can do about posting the personality shortly.  In the meantime I have to get caught back up again. 

@dermonster: I was wondering about that.  Was concerned that Derm the Soulchopper had snapped. 

@longgonejohn: Sure, not a problem.  I'll scrounge up a dwarf tonight.  I'll look at the marksdwarves and let you know what I find. 

@mcclay: These crashes always come at the worst possible time.  Let me know if you still want to be oracle. 

@Triaxx2: Yeah, it's looking pretty good.  I've got the masons focusing on that project exclusively just to get it done.  With the replaying I still expect it'll still be done around the end of Timber.

posting to watch and be dorfed if it becomes convinient. -male-

tis a good read. ^^

[Stuclev]

I have to say this is one of the greatest fortresses I've ever read about    Thanks for making such a captivating read!

Also, is it possible if I can be dorfed? Anyone from the military, I'm not picky, called Sturist. I'll even write some little diaries to add to the ambience (:

How is the Crypt going?

[Dermonster]

Someone needs to put this on TvTropes. Or at least mention it in the community page.

I am inept at editing the pages though.

The Baron pissed off Derm so much, he crashed your game.

[Urist Imiknorris]

I think mandates are random and non-predictive, like moods. You won't know if you're going to get one until you've gotten it. As for who gets jailed, that depends on who hauled the contraband to the depot.

[Triaxx2]

Shouldn't be a problem Karakzon. We seem to have Dorfs coming out our ears.

And other places we shouldn't have Dorfs.

Journal of Triaxx: Armok... I shouldn't have let Syntic talk me into trying that cocktail of his. I had the oddest dream. We'd reached the end of the year and then... doom. Chaos and destruction. Some sort of danger from the vista of gates...

I think that next time he offers me something to drink, I'm going to stick a mining pick in his ear.

Oracle I want to be

Thoughts of 'Thatdude' the legendary Marksdwarf.
It's been really weird for the last few days... I've been having a huge sense of, what is it... déja vu. Everything has seemed to happen twice now and it's making me feel queasy recently. As if time just broke and fell back on itself.
I other news I heard whispers that Cog is pissed off at the duke. NO BLOODY WONDER, HE THREW ME IN JAIL. But he doesn't have the balls to actually murder him. Just hurt him non-lethaly... Well a wooden spike to the face wouldn't go amiss in my book either.
Just had a thought.
Non-lethal punishment of the duke. Rats not pissing him off enough? Why not lock him in his room (with a little food) and dump a refuse pile load of dead rats into his room (or the equivalent). No-body likes a face full of miasma, even if they have cold mushrooms to gnaw on.

Indri's Journal:
What a weird dream. First I was dancing at the Plump Helmet Man Festival and we were all jumping around on a springy spider web strung above the floor, it wasn't sticky at all, just springy. The spiders were all clapping and the booze was fountaining from the wall pipes. And then I was arrested for selling swords to the Duke and I was confined in a theatre where a bard sung on and on about the flaming elephants of the legendary Boat Killings.

No way in the Hells I'm telling anyone *that* dream. It would be a trip to the Dwarf Therapist for sure!

I have got to stop taking that extra serving of tallow roast at dinner.

Kezan's journal:

Date, Unsure.

"Things have felt... odd lately. I feel as if I've done this before... It's like a gear slipped in reality, sliding backwards, only to catch again, and continue on. I'm going to keep an eye out... There had been others of the engineer division thrown in jail, i... think... not sure... must be something from the caverns... has to be, i knew there was something evil, and something must have slipped through..."
