The Last Fortress: Community/Succession RPG Game
« on: December 01, 2010, 03:04:46 pm »

Dark times are upon us, lads. Ever since the our beloved king was put on a goblin pike 59 years ago, we have wandered this land as nomads without a mountainhall to call home. We have had no glory, no honor as we traveled from human town to town begging for scraps, sometimes even needing to resort to asking the elves for help... well no more! I am sick and tired of this life. We will create another fortress, we will! We will create a fortress that shall stand the test of time, one which will be a beacon of hope for all crushed spirits like us in these bleak times! We will have an impregnable defense, one which no goblin, titan or dragon shall be able to penetrate! We will build... The Last Fortress!

Of course, first we must decide where to make our last stand. Shall we do it at the The Humble Rages, a great volcano that rises through a massive swamp? Or shall we stand tall at the edge of the mountains and the haunted forests of chilling? Or would we have more resources if we built our home on a pleasant freshwater lake?
Spoiler: Fortress Locations (click to show/hide)
The second issue we must address is who is coming with me. Only 7 of us shall go, in holding with the tradition of our forefathers, and we shall take turns governing the affairs of the fortress. Anyone who is in, state your name and your skills.

Hydrall, Friendly Sniper, ready for duty! -salutes-

If possible, I'd like to be a hunter or marksdwarf. Crossbows are just my thing. :D

And a lakehouse sounds nice...

Let's take volcano. Never tried to obsidianize aquifer, but we have to! Too bad there is no sand...

Sign me up!

Kipi, the Chef (Farmer/Brewer/Butcher/Tanner/Cook)!

Yes, tanner just so that we don't waste any of those raw letters I'm going to get from the animals Hydrall brings...  :P



EDIT: Ah, didn't notice Di's post before making mine...
So, up to you RNG, if you want to let Di have a dwarf now, then you can turn me to miner -> 5 mining / 5 stone detailing. Your call though...

I will let you be whatever you want to be, though a miner probably would be more useful than another butcher/farmer.

A mason's necessary too. And a carpenter. And a mechanic (in my opinion). And an architect. And a doctor.

There's a lot of important things for a fort...

Alright, I've updated the main post. Right now we're tied for volcano and lakeside, if we're still tied when I embark I guess I'll just flip a coin to pick one. I've cast Kupi as a Miner/Engraver since we need one and he volunteered for it, and I added carpentry to DwarfyDwarf's skills because we need someone to make the beds. I guess I'll do the woodcutting, since I have an axe.

Makes sense that I'd have plant gathering. Gotta find food somehow on those long stakeouts.  :P

To clearify, you mean that there's no dwarf civilization in this world? That's hard..

Correct. The last one was wiped out 60 years ago.
