Next post will be a big dorfing post and not much else (sorry, I had a job interview to prepare for) E: if anyone further down the list wants to be a human mercenary rather than a dwarf, I will let the first two claimants jump the queue.

21st Granite, 251 Dearest Diary, At long last, after an exhausting journey, I have arrived at my demesne. Or rather, what will become my demesne. I'll not recount the journey here; I would just as soon forget it (and its damnable rats). No, for now I must look forward, towards claiming what is rightfully mine. Unfortunately, much like my family name, it is in a pretty sorry state right now. The previous overseers have set down its layout as a large series of squares, and while I can appreciate the utilitarianism of such a measure, and understand the need to strike stone rather than the clay that plagues the area, I cannot avoid finding the aesthetics to be lacking. More to the point, the current overseer of the fortress is a human. A perpetually drunk human. Far be it from me to criticize somebody for needing a drink, but if you cannot at least hold your liquor, then you ought not to be in a position of such power. She refused to so much as look as the extensive proofs of my lineage which I brought along, instead declaring me to be a siege engineer (and appointing somebody with no skills and no head for numbers as bookkeeper). This is not a problem, exactly--I am familiar with the trade, after all. But it does introduce some difficulties into my plan to press my claim. But on this point, I shall persevere. There may be a great many things that I have abandoned too soon, but this is far too important for me to leave behind. That title shall be mine, and nothing shall stop me. For now, though, I bide my time. The mountainhome wasn't built in a day, after all. I will prove my worthiness in this fort, and reap my just rewards. All things in their time. --Lord Hattigan

Yaaay my first dwarf. She even likes gold, as is proper. My husband and I love Githa but I don't seem them on the gods list? Are we worshiping a foreign god? That seems very suspect. I don't think TRUMPeter likes foreign things very much . . .

DannyGlands' Private Journal I have forgotten how much more potent dwarven alcohol is to a human body. Our resident human bard, once the paragon of eloquence, is now reduced to using language more suitable for pump operators in her poetry. She has been going around issuing orders to the mining corps to dig out the temporary dormitories and turn them into a "proper tavern." As if that wasn't hard enough, during the last migrant wave she declared a dwarf with no bookkeeping skills to be the new bookkeeper -- We seriously need to get the water purification project going. Also, one of the new migrants claims to be a lord, but I have my doubts. I have no recollection of the Hattigan line. I will continue to try and keep the human from turning this place into a ghost town. Danny Glands fucked around with this message at 01:27 on May 14, 2016 |

Adventure mode is so much richer now that you can assemble an impromptu a capella group at any tavern.

 hihohe's Journal You have no idea how hard it is to be a hill dwarf artist. How are you supposed to carve in dirt loving walls Finally, I'm in on the ground floor of a New fortress. I will make sure all know the history of Stonewealth. And maybe play some music down by the tavern. Hope this is a Dwarven Wine Fort.

22nd Granite, 251 Hey diary u know wot All these new dewarves standing around with their fingers up thier asses r a rite headache See DannyGlands was tellin me all about it, like military dorfs need squads n weapns n poo poo (I know all about militry stuff obvs my surname is Grandlancer) & u gotta make sure theres enuff bedrooms n chairs & then you appoint a sheriff & he gives himself airs & wants a big posh office etectra. I sure am glad Im not the one in charge of all that Im just gonna keep rite on buildin my tavern but mebbe Ill drop by & give ol DG a THUMBSUP now and then so he knows hes doin a good job 24th Granite, 251 I reckon DannyGlands took my reocmnednations to heart cos he showed me his militry plans today & it looks like this HIT SQUAD - melee & metal armour StrangeAeon (Militia Commander) - Axe Anchors - Axe Grey Hunter - Spear Carillion - Short Sword MBOOT - Mace necrotic - Axe AfroSquirrel - Hammer Trundel - Axe ColonelMuttonchops - Hammer Tunicate - Hammer SHOOT SQUAD - crossbows & leather armour Torran (Militia Captain) Spermy Smurf (human, prefers bows but if u serve with the dwarves u use dwarfy weapons dammit) Organ Grinder NINJEW IAmTheRad Habituallyred Gene (human) N.B. the squad names which I sugested myself & are much more awesome than random bonkers dwarf crap liek the Angry Gears of Shafting etc Off course there is a small thing we do not have any metal to make armour & weaps & this seems to upset dear DG a lot I gave him a hug & told him he culd have Eighty Airconswitch M_Gargantua & Lawman0 for more minery exploration as my tavern excavatings r nearly done anyway He sed thank u very much I am so very grateful so that is my good deed 4 the day 7th Slate, 251 Happy day! The first beardling has come to Stonewealth!  Poistra was born to DuckAerobics and Fudon Amsanomo & will brigten up the place no end, I will teach him the ways of the bard as soon as his tiny grubby fingers can hold a fone Also I was prayin to Alle & noticed the temple was a mess so Ive asked hihohe to do some smoothin on the secret, shhh dont tell DG 8th Slate, 251 Ok so hihohe came back & said part of the temple is clay & cant be smoothed & SOMEONE namin no names was an idiot 2 build it there Hmm Hmmmmm ok got an idea  Lets carve out a new temple & use the old one as a SECRET VAULT for the many treasuers we will create it is a genius plan & Im sure Dannyboy wont mind me borrowin his miners 4 a sec 9th Slate, 251 Another birth! Its like beardling christmas round here  Zore is the dauthger of M_Gargantua n Big Daddy, they r very proud but it does mean we have 1 less miner Wait hold on she carried rite on mining while carryin the baby Dorfs are badass I guess 18th Slate, 251 Well the elves finally packed up & left after we bought 4 instroments & ignored them for a month, sorry elves More impotrantly a goblin bard has come to visit! If I wasnt so constitutionally opposed 2 learnin Im sure I could learn a lot  Hes carryin a book, I can see the title is "A World of the Goblin" but he wont let me read it, nuts   Never mind its prob just poetry. Gobbo poetry is clever but a bit 2 cruel imo, if u remember my applucation 2 join Stonewealth there was a example Dwarf poetry is more kinda straigntforward lemme find an example O yeh I wrote this one down when Trundel recited it way back before I got super drunked  Skull and the Wicked Illness A traditional dwarven poem concerning Tirist Tailorb, sometimes called The Skull Lady, the second dwarf to worship Zefon, He-Who-Is-Death-Incarnate quote:In 31, Tirist became the mayor of The Wise Paper. Exploring every secret, I bring you now this bleak writ: The tale of Tirist Tailorb. An adequate law-shaper, She founded The Wise Paper, And ruled it well and fairly. Of gods she hadn't any, Of friends she hadn't many, And yet she ruled there fairly. But one by one they perished: Disease took those she cherished, The friends she valued dearly - When fear and sadness hit her Her ruling grew more bitter And she sought life forever. She's dead now. Such is Zefon. "Skull and the Wicked Illness" was composed in 162 by the great Roasted Salve poet, Urvad Minelashes. This is his first well-known work and is not considered his best. It is considered heretical by some devout followers of Zefon, merely misguided by others. Maugrim fucked around with this message at 22:01 on May 19, 2016 |

So don't fret -- you might still die a baby on the battlefield!

If I was a more envious dwarf I would rob these worthless merchants. Fortunately I am content with this fine door. (Seriously, this dwarf has no patience, is quick to anger, and does not handle stress well. And he has a crossbow at all times.)
