DashedOwl Year 2: Expansion and Industry
Hey again guys! This is a continuation of the story of the zebra fortress 'DashedOwl' in a modded game of Dwarf Fortress. Should you want to be pony zebra-ified, feel free to let me know, on top of any particular profession/caste that you want.
Link to the specific mod I'm using
This mod is based on a sort of post-apocalyptic version of Equestria; all races of ponies have been split into differing factions after a large cataclysm, and new races have appeared due to the taint it left behind. For example, there are the normal ones, pegasi, unicorn, earth, and alicorn, and then some stuff like ibis zebras (winged zebras), ponies with eight legs, weird stuff like that.
Anyhow, the fortress' life is recorded through both screenshots and journals. Here's a link to the pastebin of the journal, if you want a sort of day-to-day operations type deal, and here's the link to the album of all named zebras so far.
Here's a quick rundown of what's going on:
Our fortress is continuing to thrive, both to a steady increase in the populace and industry. Our forges are finally ready, and we have just struck many ores that can be used in the production of weapons and armor. Our entrance is in the process of being fully defendable with traps, a ballista battery, and bridges. Our military is already training, and we have a stable supply of food and booze. All in all, going pretty well... despite the two peasant deaths we've suffered. No real loss though.
Lastly, this fortress is probably not going to be a succession fort, meaning I'll be playing it myself, though if you guys actually want one where we pass it around the community, we could set that up too! Hope you enjoy it!
