I'd like to be a jeweller/smith/miner. 1 point in each gem setting/cutting, one in mining and a pick is all I'll need. --Major
- You sure about that? There's plenty of points for extra skills. Also, if you want, give in opinion on what style and area we should play in. --Smoking Gnu 12:48, 10 March 2008 (EDT)
If there is a volcano area possible, i'd like it, moreso if it has running water, up survival chances. If there is spare points after other people join, I would like a crossbow, and novice marksdwarf, bolts can be easily made. I could be backup guard, wielding my own smithed items of course! --Major sephiroth 00:55, 11 March 2008 (EDT)
I'd like to be a butcher/broker/head architect and I want to bring (at least) 20 cats. I'd prefer an aquifer map if possible; with magma and a warm (maybe even scorching) climate. It should be an Evil Armok sacrifice fortress, so access to goblins, elves, and humans is a necessity. VengefulDonut 22:21, 12 March 2008 (EDT)
I'll do the fishing if you need a fisherdwarf. Proficient Fishing, and Some points into fish cleaning. The rest of the time I can do hard labor. --LordoEverything 01:48, 13 March 2008 (EDT)
Why not... Axedwarf/Woodsdwarf. Prof Axe,Armor,Woodcutting. Votes go to Armok, warm or hot (not scorching), and neutral or worse lands. --Edward 06:40, 13 March 2008 (EDT)
- D'oh... took a break from DF for a bit, and already forgot that you're limited to 2 Proficient skills. Let's make that Skilled Axe, Armor and just named woodcutter. --Edward 23:01, 13 March 2008 (EDT)
I'll be a Chef. Give me a hole in some soil or with a muddy area for a farm, kitchen, still, and food stockpile, and with my proficient skills in both cooking and brewing, I'll keep dozens of dwarves well-fed and happy. I shall even use organic, self-grown ingredients, though I'll be delighted to turn any meat into a delicious roast. I prefer a safe location for myself. I do not care what else there is - my whole existence will, ideally, be in that hole. --Savok 12:43, 13 March 2008 (EDT)
[edit] Past-tense/present tense
Just as an explanation, I wasn't planning on writing the whole story in present tense. It was just a way to introduce my character.--Smoking Gnu 14:00, 16 March 2008 (EDT)
- That's the most frequent wrong use of present tense. AFAIK, most people aren't bothered by it and possibly even like it, but it really bugs those of us who have a good background in proper use and grammar and such, likely because our mothers are professional English teachers. --Savok 16:37, 16 March 2008 (EDT)
[edit] misc
What is the fortress name? And the group name? Also, what types of stone are available? (specifically - can we get bauxite?) VengefulDonut
- The fortress is called bloodtempests, as for the group and the possibility of bauxite, I forgot to check, so it'll be interesting.--Smoking Gnu 22:19, 16 March 2008 (EDT)
- It will be clear once we reach the first layer of rock. VengefulDonut 23:31, 16 March 2008 (EDT)
[edit] Site
It won't be very bloody from Nature's Beasts, what with the most peaceful type of surroundings possible... Good thing them Gobbos make a big mess when they're hacked in half! Well, suppose that means I get plenty of training time in shortly after I level any 'Fleshwood' in the area, since I probably won't be conscripted to chase off any marauding Cougars, etc. ;-) Edward 06:31, 17 March 2008 (EDT)
