For My FatherI was but a young lad when my daddy was the leader of this mess. He told me stories of the horrible things he saw, and wished I never had to deal with them myself. Unfortunately I'm in his blood soaked shoes, assuming the same role that got him murdered by MaximumZero the axe wielding maniac.
9th Slate 1053- Praise the Gods, 19 Migrants have arrived
17th Slate 1053- I've organized the new migrants into work groups, the refuse is being hauled to the dumps, the bodies to their tombs, their is finally a sense of order among the broken.
19th Slate 1053- I have ordered the assigning of a new role, the bookkeeper. His task will be to give em an estimate on our current supply situation.
23rd Slate 1053- I have begun construction of a hospital in my fathers name, and assumed the role of doctor.
- I also began construction of a prison complex my father had planned deep in the bowels of our fort.
14th Felsite 1053- Work finally begins on the prison.. dumb miners
17th Felsite 1053- I have ordered the destruction of all known levers.. for the fact that its unknown what any of them do
2nd Hematite 1053- It is now summer, I feel as if I've done my father proud.. so in celebration I ordered the mass slaughter of all of the stray animals... enough meat for years
7th hematite 1053- Oh gods, one of my haulers has withdrawn from society. I've put the Sheriff on alert.
20th Hematite 1053- I've constructed a wall around our upper most entrance, an apparent lapse in better judgment by our past leaders left this undefended.
2nd Malachite 1053- The hospital is finally nearing completion, it has been designated as such and I am just awaiting the construction of the traction benches.
- The prison is still awaiting the construct of some copper cages, and the construction of the items the sheriff requested.
6th Malachite 1053- Another migrant wave has arrived a hearty 9 souls. I immediately delegate their positions.
10th Malachite 1053- The gods be damned, a forgotten beast has appeared in the caverns below. Cethutha, the elders tell it as a towering quadruped composed of green glass, with a pair of antennae, it's said to have a deadly spittle.
- I immediately order the sealing of the cavern stairwells, as we have no military worthy of fighting this beast.
13th Malachite 1053- In a strange sequence of events, our prison is completed. With it's first occupant being set as the sheriff. He is immediately relieved of his post, and is awaiting escort to serve 26 days imprisonment for killing a stray donkey.
16th Malachite 1053- The new sheriff is appointed, and immediately begins handing out the necessary punishments
17th Malachite 1053- The hospital is complete, I have begun constructing the necessary workshops to supply the cloth and thread to treat the injured. I have also ordered the construction of splints and crutches, as undoubtedly these will be needed in the years to come.
4th Galena 1053- With the fortress fully self sufficient and with a sense of law and order, I've been constructing of a large crypt to honor all of those lost in past misgivings
16th Limestone 1053- Weeks of peace had gotten me optimistic about our future. The crypt has been dug out and the caskets are being constructed.
- Rumors are abound of a man being possessed, I've sent my sheriff to investigate.
17th Limestone 1053- The sheriff returns with the following report: "one of our miners has become possessed and claimed a workshop, he has begun construction of a mysterious object."
20th Limestone 1053- I've begun some exploratory mining in an attempt to find some useful metals.
21st Limestone 1053- My sheriff reports the crazed miner successfully made an artifact alunite table without killing everyone else in the process. Great success.
7th Sandstone 1053- More migrants! 7 more mouths to feed. The only one worth noticing is a weapon-smith who is nearly reached legendary levels, he will be needed in the future for-sure.
11th Timber 1053- With the tomb nearly complete, only lacking a few more polished stone walls, I finally lay my father to rest.
I begin my decent from the leadership role, growing older and tired of dealing with the menial tasks that come with running the fortress. I request to continue my duties as chief medical dwarf, but wholeheartedly hope I'm relieved of the expedition leader role. I've done my father proud, and await the call back to the throne that I so worryingly expect will come sooner rather then later.I leave a list of tasks that I never got to complete, a mixture of both idea's and warnings for the next fool to take this post.http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=2783- Beware the caverns, a forgotten beast still roams them.
- A proper military must be formed, we consider ourselves lucky we have not met an attack in months.
- The workshops are in place, but we need to start a cloth and thread processing chain.
- The jail is sufficient for now, but look to add more restraints.
- The upper forges are left outside the walls, this could be our end in the event of a siege.
OOC
My first realistic attempt at a community game log, lemme know whatchya think of it and the progress made on the fort.
