Put me on the end there.Although be forewarned, I'm not the most experienced player, so I'll probably ruin it somehow.

I'd love to do this, but there is no way in hell I could learn enough about Dwarf Fortress to avoid immediate catastrophe at the very start of my shift, so I guess I'll sit it out. I'll write some epic mining poetry if one of the dwarves gets called LemonScented, though.

When do we start? :D
I am somewhat concerned that the entire fortress will be destroyed by my turn, but that's okay.

Yeah I've not yet figured out the military system in the new version, so I'll probably just seal up the fort with lots of guard dogs, spikey bits, and cage traps. If we're not there come my turn I fully intend to dig into at least the first circle of hell. Hopefully Ronny James Dio will be there (though I reckon he made it Upstairs). I'll probably end up awakening a balrog. |

126.
A fateful year for the dwarves.
The Infamous Banner of Thinning sets out from the luxurious comfort of the Mountainhomes into the rugged wilderness. A ragtag group of thieves, convicts, honest dwarves and a poet ship out. No one expects them to survive.
They journey for weeks through woodland, desert, and mountain. Dwarves die. Their humble group is whittled into a mere husk of seven dwarves. When all seems lost and the survivors are ready to collapse to the ground in exhaustion, they arrive.
Lemonscented is the de facto leader, after several others before him have perished. A poet by nature, he found that there are only so many things can write about the Mountainhomes. Thus, he decided to strike off with a group of settlers in hopes of finding adventure and inspiration. He's found both so far, but not in the manner he'd hoped.
Pierog is the resident psychopath. He murdered his family. He murdered his neighbors. He murdered everybody on his damn level. The militia was eventually able to subdue him with a crossbolt through the eye. Once in prison he promptly beat three guards to death. Desperate to get rid of him, they offered to sponsor a new outpost if they would take him with them. While is is homicidal, Pierog is not suicidal. After a hood was removed a few days into the journey, he decided that he wouldn't live if he killed them all.
C.A.Sinclair is the only living dwarf with no beard. Hard as he may try, not one stubble will sprout from his chinny chin chin. He has the most exquisite mustache of any dwarf, but the lack of the feature so crucial to any dwarf has made him an outcast. He set out to escape the laughter.
Shipwreck has been trained for this practically since birth. Rigorous training has given him knowledge of all the subtle nuances of a society, of all the things that might work to bring it down. Despite this training, he is not leader. Why? He simply does not posses the authority. As Lemonscented's right hand man, however, his skills will be put to the test.
Nix is the doctor. He'd started slicing open the neighborhood pets to see what made them tick at a young age, and before he could do the same to the neighbors, his parents sent him off to study medicine. He's been Shipewreck's partner in crime for even longer, so when Shipwreck went, so did he.
Markham is a design mastermind, probably the single most brilliant dwarf in all of dwarven history. Almost every weapon design in modern dwarven society can be attributed to him. However, when all threats have been rendered null, things grow dull. Off he went with a new outpost.
Nikica is a mole. Well a dwarf technically, but the dirt, it called to him. He could never get away from it. It was all around him, beckoning for him to burrow inside. His parents couldn't deal with his erratic behavior, so off they sent him.
These seven dwarves form the form the start of a new society, Lurewound.
Strike the earth!

For the record I'm also waiting though I'm not participating, I love dwarf fortress succession games.
