Fort Regulars

I embarked on a prarie, which is where we'll be building our glorious fortress. There's only one problem, and that is that I was just attacked by hordes of creatures.

I'll post a journal entry after this battle is finished. It sure is a good thing Vamp changed to "something actiony" or else we'd all be dead.

Journal of Peregrine, 7th Malachite, 262, Mid-Summer.

I say, nothing like a wagon ride. Just you, six of your kin, dreaming of all the riches that await you. Or at least, it was all fun and games, but then...

Rhesus macaques out of nowhere! Fiends! Come to steal our cave spider silk rope no doubt! It was madness. Eight villainous rhesus macaques against seven noble dwarves, two loyal dogs, a stoic horse and a smelly mule. We immediately ran away, for we were outnumbered by the monkeys. But wait, were we cowards, or was it perhaps, a cunning flank? As the rhesus macaques thought their victory assured our expedition leader, a dwarf named Vamparagon leaped from the wagon flanked by the two dogs. They tore through the rhesus macaques, killing all eight of them.

And we helped! Sorta.

After this minor setback we set to work immediately. I dug out a main farming and community level into the mountain side and then started to dig downwards where I'm working on a crafting level. While we labour, our leader Vamp goes around flanked by his two wardogs and barks orders at us, occasionally giving the odd lazy dwarf a jab with his crossbow.

And sometimes when he has the time off he fishes.

Truly he is the dwarf we all aspire to be.

This could go in the RP section really o_o

I want to be a animal trainer!
