This is how it ends.

Well.. that goblin invasion force arrived. All ten of them. First lets look at my defensive upgrades. When that weregiraffe showed up we lost a lot of people at the fishing hole. Considering that is where most of our food comes from I couldn't stop the fishing but I could make it safer. I built a giant wooden cabin around the fishing hole and even gave it a roof.
It even has a full roof overtop of it and when that door is locked there is a stairscase down to a long tunnel that leads back in to our fort. I stuck a few beds in in incase someone gets tired and even dug them their own well for drinking.
Now behold my awesome plan!! The purple arrow is the route the goblins will have to walk to get inside. Or try before they are caught in my traps! muhaha. ... yah.
Ofcourse... it didn't go according to plan. Stupid plan. Look at that picture... can YOU see where I fucked up?
Click here to see.
Anyways... the end result was that the goblins got in and murdered everyone. We all died. Over 50 babies/children.. all of us.. everyone. I took one snapshot... Here you go... all of the red stuff, that's blood. All those miscoloured dwarves.. those are corpses. So yeah. This is how it ends.

Winter has arrived

Well... I didn't get around to updating with all that other stuff happening. Drakhen has been in the hospital for about 6 months but isn't dead so I am hopeful he will recover. He lost his entire left arm though. This makes me sad.
Other news... Brogo keeps visiting but never staying long. The vampire struck yet again but this time he screwed up. About 7 people have reported him as the culprit. We could easily convict him but then we might have to deal with an angry vampire. And... that's not exactly something i can handle right now because we are totally... Under Siege!!
A small invasion force of goblins has arrived. We still have NO standing army of any kind. I am hoping we can just lock the doors and wait them out. Maybe the traps will help but I don't think I have near enough of them.
I'll update when I can with the results of this invasion and how my meager defenses hold up.

A Titan Beast Has Arrived... and Someone Important Might Die!
Posted by Drakhen at 21:40 1 comments
Behold my clickbait title.. but unfortunately it might be true. Behold the arrival of the Tundra Titan!! I had taken some steps to make us safer but I hadn't thought the game would throw a flying beast at us so soon. While I was scrambling to fidn a way to close up the entrances from the topside.. the thing swooped in on the trading depot where we had a visiting delegation. Luckily this beast wasn't so tough and a guard there was able to fight it and kill it. it took him a little while... but before it was over Drakhen decided to wander in to the fray and got himself bitten.
Remember that bit in his description about a poisonous bite? yeah... so.. Drakhen was knocked unconcious and lost his left arm. Jim Shapiro carried him to the hospital and today's fake doctor of the week is trying to diagnose him now. Drakhen is unconcious.. numb.. and has a fever now. So.. waiting to see if he dies or not. I'm not very hopeful.

Vampire Shenanigans

Taking this time today to look a little closer at our wonderful mayor. Feature piece!!
So our vampire mayor killed again. This time he had the balls to go on over to Yumi and report the crime himself. He accused someone else in the town.. A poor guy who arrived here a full year after the first vampire murder.
So he is a crafty guy who kills people and tries to blame the crime on others. Meanwhile he is our mayor. It looks like this surprised even him. Lets take a look at what little we know about this guy. Keep in mind that some of his profile will be outright lies. It doesn't mention his vampireness or the poor people he has murdered. But if we take a look we can see a few mentions of his history that have slipped through. Pretty clear he's been around a lot longer than the age listed in his immigration papers.
Former Lord of the Just League (would have been so much better if it was the Justice League!) and the Warlord of the Coalition of Books?? (Conan the Librarian?)
So.. I'm leaving him in power for now... Not quite sure what to do with him just yet. But.. I didn't want him to think we fell for his ploy so I've placed a statue... right in his bedroom. Just to let him know that SOMEone round here knows his dirty secret.
Tongiht I am going to upgrade to the newer version of DF. This will apparently fix the bug for that poor woman trapped in a crafting station for two years. Also it should let me craft the items I wanted for the Tomb of Elianna Moonhaven. It should be an epic tomb ofcourse. Maybe once we can make nice solid gold furniture we can deck out our rooms properly too.

Dwarven Justice
Posted by Drakhen at 22:51 0 comments
dwarven justice.... 3 outstanding crimes.. two of which were vampiric murders... I know who the culprit is but im afraid to accuse him. Yumi might get killed trying to do something stupid like arrest the undead mayor/former warlord.
But there was the crime of destruction of public property by the werebeast guy.... i decided to convict him and see what would happen.
Deputy Luna was dispatch to beat him senseless for his crime. I let him out of his room.. too good, had to see what happens. she found him in a hallway and beat him halfway to hell. Crushed his hand and knocked him out cold.
Eventually he woke up and I got him back in his room. After that I locked the door and walled over it like I did the hospital. Some people, including Tiny Belan, are upset that Elianna's body has been left to rot but I just can't open that door until we have some proper soldiers. With weapons... and armor.

| Don't feel sorry for him. He used to be Thob.. now he's jsut a cursed beast. His kind killed Elianna. |
The Vampire Exposed!
Posted by Drakhen at 01:45 2 comments
In the aftermath of the carnage there was a lot to clean up. Or in this case, wall over. I built a small wall over the door leaving the poor infected fool inside. The other one is locked in his room where I am hoping he will be safe. This is a temporary arrangement because I'm starting to think it will be fun to have a werebeast or two around.
So during this confusing time the vasmpire struck again. Yumi Scruumi was supposed to be on this case but the new victim was a shocker... it was the mayor!! Mr Vucar Shorastgiken!! The very same dwarf who took over the local leadership from Yumi Scruumi!!
His poor wife discovered him drained of blood. A new mayor was voted in immediately. Here is where it gets messy.. The new mayor... is the vampire! (What a twist!!))
All hail our new vampiric overlord? Or... should Yumi try arresting this undead fiend? What do we do now?? I'm leaving him in power for now.. my first priority is to shore up our defenses and put the werebeasts in a safer place. But... any thoughts on this vampire? I'm thinking of leaving him and the werebeasts at the bottom of a very deep pit. And maybe dropping some future enemies on them.

Oh Dear God...
Posted by Drakhen at 22:27 2 comments
I thought I would keep an eye on those survivors.. but it looks like the next full moon came a lot quicker than I realized. I had a hospital built and the four people injured in the wearbeast attack were in there with the closest thing I have to a doctor. And one other person. Poor Eliana Moonhaven. It seems when I opened a hospital she decided to run on in and get that thing she used to call a hand looked at.
The doctor was the first to go.
4 new weregiraffes. Three of them were in the hospital. I tried to get Eliana to run out but she didn't last more than a second. Behold the last moments of Eliana Moonhaven.
I promise I didn't lock the door to the hospital until after she was dead. Two of the three remaining werebeasts started tearing each other apart. The 3rd just watched. the fourth was outside and luckily wasn't within range of anyone else. I waited it out and hoped they would transform back before they remembered that they are stronger than my doors.
In the end we have 2 werebeasts... a hospital drenched in blood and severed body parts. I decided to wall over the door to the hospital and locked the other guy back in his room after he transformed back in to a dwarf. We lost some good people and I don't know how we are going to get to Eliana's body for a proper burial.
Next post... the vampire returns!

Death!

Break out the coffins. A weregiraffe! Seriously.. that thing tore those poor fishermen apart. Arowz was nearby but managed to survive unscathed. Physically anyways. Mentally there are a lot of troubled dwarves.
Here is a snapshot of how it started. The right is one elevation above the left. he is looking down on the fishing pond and he is hungry.
I don't want to write a book on this but 3 dead and atleast 3 injured. I'm a bit worried that this wearbeast plague has spread to the survivors.
I discussed this with Wade and he suggested I send out his deputy as he himself would be too busy with important administration work. It was a comedy of errors as I sent Luna Soulchild out to fight but somehow managed to send her without any ammunition. Luckily the beast had stopped clawing people apart and was now beating them with a nice soft shoe. I almost wonder if the cursed human inside exerted some small bit of control to stop the carnage. (nah, probably a bug) Then he turned back in to a human. Luna chased the terrified human all across the map 3 times until she finally caught up with him. In the scuffle she managed to beat him to death with her crossbow so it was atleast somewhat useful.
So we survived.. but at what cost?

Vampire struck again and our first real threat arrives

Poor Kib Morulmonom the miner was attacked in her bedroom one night. She awake on the verge of death, pale and drained of most of her blood. She has been so shaken she has been unable to work and is given to bouts of panic. I was again unable to determine the identity of this attacker but it is only a matter of time before they slip up.
In the mean time... this has happened.
