Oh good grief I'm late. Thankfully, not pregnant.
4th Felsite, Late Spring 200
COMPLICATION: It has begun to rain much harder. Visibility is drastically reduced outside, and the mountainside is turning into a mudfield.
Bowdown2q: Rodicurst Onyxbone, Chief Medical Dwarf
JOBS: Manage Labors, Build Table
After doing a bit of managing, Rodicurst is chagrined to find that the carpenters shop is outside (so no beds), as is the only source of water. He does what he can, however, creating a rock table and coffer and dragging them over to a somewhat enclosed workshop space, then stocking the coffer with the meager medical supplies of Cloisteredtombs- a bit of soap, some thread, some cloth. It'll do, for now.

Frelock: Modul "Tweak" Mostsilver, Mechanic
JOBS: Build Craftdwarves Workshop, Craft Stone Mugs
Now that Cloisteredtombs is sealed off from the Zombie Menace, Modul decides to begin the preparations for the Autumn caravan. Since the only thing that appears to be in abundance down here is sandstone, he decides to make stone mugs. The quality of quantity and all that.

FuzzyZergling: Fuzz Oiledsparce, Farmer
JOB: Construct Craftdwarves Workshop, Craft Bone Bolts
Fuzz helps Modul make a workshop, but it doesn't look like Modul has any intention of vacating it. On the plus side, the Cave Wheat harvest is in! And the Plump Helmet harvest should be in the next update.
Shadow: Kib Koganobul, Miner
JOBS: Dig
Praise the miners! You have struck...
chert?
Ground-4 is a chert layer. Magma safe, but otherwise boring. In other news, apparently the jump from Expert to Professional is a noticeable one, as you now dig out 25/halfweek and 50/week. For reference, you extract about 75% of the material you mine.

Thikut is having difficulty seeing the battle through the pouring rain, [6]+4+1-2(rain) but still nails the zombie in the throat, [5] tearing the muscle and chipping the bone!

Dan strikes, [1]+2 vs [4]-1 but the zombie dodges the blow!
The zombie [3]+2 vs [3]+1 strikes Dan in the third toe left foot, [3]+2 bruising the muscle and fracturing the bone!

Tulon [6]+3-2 gets his bearings and puts a bolt into the neck of the zombie, [3]+1(damaged area) tearing the fat and tearing the muscle!
Dan [6]+2 vs [1]-1 lets out a great bellow as he drives his sword straight into the neck of the zombie, [5]-1+2(extreme wounds) straight into a bolt lodged in the vertebrae, driving it through the spine and clear out the other side! The zombie's severed head flies off in an arc!
