Dwarf Fortress Succession Game III:Jawmetal

Same difference. You still kill for it.

Sacrifices must be made if Dwarfkind is to prosper! Your God-Emperor has spoken!

Diary of Oscar Adstukas the First of His name: Found my diary again.

I need to order more books for reading.

Also, young Durza is now an Inquisitor. Maybe I should ask him to find me some theological books?

Signed, Oscar

/offtopic Can the next person to use the save check my dorfs age?

-Picks up Maxwell and treats Bladebound like a nail.-

As long as you turn my dwarf into a vampire first and put his broken body on top of the IMPERATOR, it is Just as Planned.

-Hammers mice to every spike on PSYKER and takes Maxwell to IMPERATOR.-

See? See?! This is what happens when you don't let me become a god-tier Adamantinesmith!!!

I tried to avoid killing the children of named dwarves last time I activated LAVA, so I should be able to not kill them now that it's fully functional. Of course, HELLFIRE might pose some problems, but so long as the access points are properly isolated, children shouldn't just randomly wander in.

Durza's Log.

The glorious god-emperor of dwarfkind has discovered or been told of the modifications I made to THRONE, which is unfortunate. His response to this was to make me the leader of his new Inquisitors, so it all works out as I planned it, except in my plans I was HIGH Inquisitor, not LORD Inquisitor. I guess you can't have it all, though.

In any case, I've asked Bladebound if I can sentence Viha Kirbonium to death, and he said he'd have to be guilty of something first (I always knew this legal system was too soft on people who are clearly die hard criminals). He seemed interested when I informed him that Viha could be a quasi-demonic entity that is attempting to siphon power from his THRONE project, but I apparently still need PROOF. What good is proof, it doesn't stop the crime being committed. Still, everyone's guilty of something. You just have to ask them in the right ways.

Journal of Viha Kirbonium VII

I hear the whispering at the edges of my room, but I can't let them in yet. They speak of the foul taint that has runneth Durza over, and turned his body into a husk puppeted by a demon. I believe that the God Emperor will find this to be interesting enough to appoint me an inquisitor to keep an eye on Durza. I have to figure out why the journal says what it does, why the spirits seethe when Durza's name is even thought. And, if it comes down to it, I must purify.

Another entry from the late NES:

I sense... a great disturbance within the fortress... could it be... some of our kind... are actually goblin supporters? Whatever the case is, I can only pray that this... does not end badly for every dwarf. Armok, take the blood from those... who adore goblins... and a dwarf better get to cleaning up this slab... it is not a dog's territory marker!

Durza: You may call yourself High Inquisitor if you want. Perhaps that would help placate the hypothetical nobles that might be worried about your appointment...

viha: Right now the only dwarves marked as "Ordo Dolabra" are unnamed nobodies, as I did not want to force anyone into anything. You could ask someone to have your dwarf found the "Ordo Possideo" to deal with potentially possessed dwarves (*cough* Durza *cough). It will be highly amusing to have the Ordos working against one another...

NES: So *that* is why the slab room was full of miasma at one point. It explains a lot!

Journal of 'Condorito', Boozesmith.

Dear Diary,

Today I stuck my beard in every keg of booze in the Fort.

Every. Keg.

Who's doin' the corruptin' now?!

I love this place.

@Bladebound: I assume in plot that would require talking to the God Emperor xD

Journal of Viha Kirbonium VII

WHY IN THE ROTPAR DAMNED RINGS OF THREE ARE THERE HAIRS IN MY ALE

I warned you about those eight-point-star engravings. Out of all the terrible, insane things whose attention you might try to catch, Azathoth would be the least appetizing.

Do any of you really think you can't cause "enough" randomized destruction on your own?

Each year in Jawmetal is akin to an alliterative season unto itself; I seem them pass as Crazy, Confusing, Caring and Catastrophic.

Of course, they don't always pass in that same order.

Oooh! Oooh! Which Magic Failure Point do I fall under?

(Yes, I'm including caring as a point of failure)

I definitely fall on the cusp of Crazy and Confusing.

We're two of a kind then, you and I. Also, NINJA BUTTON WOOO!

edited 15th Feb '14 10:47:06 AM by Azreal341

holy shit there's a ninja button. oh yes. fuck yes.

I know, right? This is the best thing I have ever seen on a forum! No one else has this! TV Tropes s the best.

It'll be fun when Dwarf Fortress gets . I know we have Vampires already, but . . . it'll be hilarious seeing these things zipping around your fortress.

Elf ninja. No weapons, just stupid-fast and can punch you in the soul.

Well, clearly I fall under the Caring and Catastrophic seasons, since while I did murder a third of the fortress, I also provided *bedrooms* for the survivors.

Just a heads up, this was the last post of Paramythian's that I've found:

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13691561690A35746300&page=37#904

I sent a message, seeing if there is interest.

<use_voice="Gabe N"> Uhhh, no. </voice>

Durza, you fall under Crazy/Catastropic by means of demonic possession.

(and because you murdered me six different times and ruined my chances of becoming the Axe Lord.)

Yeah, I don't post much. I stalk the thread pretty regularly though. I am downloading the save now, and should be able to load it up tonight and make sure everything is running fine, since my computer sucks a bit. Brace yourselves for a reign of violent incompetence.
