You chose to construct your new home up the coast from the ships’ wrecks, nestled atop the hilly outcrops that look down on the crashing waves from the seaside cliffs. Here, with all hands working through the sweltering days of The Heat, your lonely band constructed the frameworks for a home away from home - some shacks, some basic sanitation, and a large covered area for communal meals and leisure. It’s not much, but it’s home.

With a base established, plenty of food in your bellies, and a mostly friendly new habitat to call your own, you find yourself surrounded by smiling and enthusiastic faces. Maybe, just maybe, this brave new world will work.

Before proceeding, though, it’s worthwhile taking note of just who YOU are. You are the leader, after all, charged with not only the success of settling this new land, but with the wellbeing of all those who follow you. There must be some reason you were given such a role.

So it was - your name is Julius Arcada and you are the highly tactical, cool-headed leader of this small band of settlers.

With the foundations laid down, the time to forge your future has arrived. The weather is turning, cool winds blowing in off the ocean. Were you home, you think, now would be the time to help bring in the season’s harvest. As such, you’re sure that in only a few short months it’ll be time to sow the first crops of this new land, provided The Chill is not too harsh.

The Harvest comes and goes, the land here still vacant of crops (yet fertile). Instead of farming, Julius and his folk revert to an older lifestyle, one of leisure and the feral wilds. As they slowly become cooler, the days are spent fishing and exploring the rocky expanse and jungles to the west.

From their home, some of the settlers travel down from the cliffside and further explore the dense jungle that seems to inhabit a large chunk of this newfoundland. The overgrowth is thick, unnavigated, and the air within is thick and humid. There is much wildlife here, from exotic birds to small mammals that scutter away through the leaf litter as the newcomers approach.

There are no signs of any other human or otherwise civilised inhabitation here.

Finally, one night, a storm hits the coastline and leaves the small home of Arcada and his followers with a morning frost the following daybreak. The Chill had arrived.

The Chill feels long here - longer than in Julius’ homeland - and the small community hunkers down to see it through. Keeping close to their new community, for fear of the harsh conditions and winds, the season is spent improving the structures that already exist and constructing new ones.

By the time the harsh winds of the cliffside town begin to subside, the Mess Tent is no more - in its place stands a grand, timber hall with a warm fireplace and space for everyone. The children particularly enjoy having ‘camp outs’ within the great, sturdy hall on some of the Chill’s coldest nights.

Downhill from the small town, against the edge of the coarse jungle, some of the townsfolk have also finished work on a Lumber Camp. it’s still primitive, but it does the trick - saws and pulleys to help collect and cut up entire trees. The settler’s timber supply will be abundant for many seasons to come.

A fertile season of cool ocean breezes, sunny days and flourishing nature comes upon the small community in no time. The villages spend this time as they always would at home - tilling the fertile land and seeding their future harvest. With two large crop fields setup just downhill from the town-proper, Julius and his people are feeling quite accomplished by the time the first few scorching days of The Heat come upon them.

Despite their efforts, though, they are simply unable to master the wood-curving and construction techniques needed to have a barn ready by the end of the season. It stands idle, a half-structure skeleton, and still requires some work to complete.

Through the Heat the small settlement endured, getting the Barn finally completed and spending much of their time tending crops. The coming of the Harvest (and the fresh vegetables and crops to come with it) is a welcome relief.

On a shady afternoon some of the children noticed a cow stumbling around the small enclosure designated for them, looking ill. By the time some of the adults could be summoned, the creature had fallen to the dirt with a frothing mouth. This sudden affliction, whatever its origin, was soon to kill a second animal.

As the season went by the villagers did what they could to keep the creatures healthy. The affliction - a foreign one, perhaps of this land - seemed to dehydrate and exhaust the animals, driving them into a stupor. Tied up by the town atop this dusty hill will simply not do, some of the locals have proclaimed - we need a true, lush pasture for these animals to thrive and keep healthy.

Regardless, only two of the beasts passed, and there is currently no sign of the affliction in the small herd.

A new chicken has hatched!
Two cows have died!

[ SPECIAL EVENT ]
With the passing of the dry, sweltering Heat months comes the celebration of Julius Arcada’s birthday. He is now 28 full cycles old, a man well in his prime, and a very humble celebration is held to honour his achievements to date. While there is little exotic food, nor any alcohol, the villagers still make do and enjoy an evening of revelry and dance.

During the affair Julius finds himself in lengthy conversation, jest and flirtation with an older woman within the village - an auburn haired, quite boisterous lady named Amelia. While the evening ends very innocently, there’s definitely a spark in the air and a longing attention from this woman that lingers for the days that follow. Several members of the village, in friendly jest, have already started to gossip.

Amelia is a farmer by trade. She is 33 years old and a widow. Her only child remained in your homeland under the care of her parents and brother. She is still of child birthing age, though the prospect does decrease by the season.

The second icy Chill brings a lot of change to the small village. Most of the folk’s time is spent out exploring, mostly heading to the north-west where the delta of a small river had been spied from day one.

Exploration further along the river, unfortunately, did not yield much at all. Three attempts were made, and all three times the settler people were forced home by icy rain and winds. Their clothes and supplies simply aren’t designed for such a diverse environment. Despite the weather, though, the explorers did spy some hulking, grey, pig-like beasts floating in the river.

The town’s building efforts, on the other hand, were very successful and bountiful. A sturdy palisade has been erected around the town - though it is primitive and without any formal gateway, it is strong and formidable, fortifying the cliffside outcrop that is now the settlers’ home.

As the land thaws and many return to tending their fields, most of the settlers set about finding a way to keep themselves healthy and fit. An infirmary or some kind of hospital, surely, is needed even on the fringe of civilisation. With limited know-how and resources, however, ideas soon turn into fantasies and the villagers are simply unable to find a meaningful way to set up some kind of medical facility. Some hold the knowledge, but this land and their current tools simply don’t reach so far through societal advancement.

Exploration continues into the jungle and makes some ground - here, the settlers discover much new wildlife and fresh fruits that grow within the cool confines of the undergrowth.

Most interestingly, though, is the discover of tracks through the trees - tracks, at least according to the explorers, which belong to other humanoids. No other evidence of habitation could be found, but the villagers are nonetheless excitedly hypothesising the possibility of neighbours.

A dampener on the new discovery, though, is news of how low the food supplies have gotten. New crops have just been sown, but Harvest is several seasons away. Hunger looms over the settlers.

Finally, Julius is joyous to announce to his neighbours that his new partner, Amelia, is pregnant with their first child!

- Amelia’s birthday has passed - she is now 34.

While some tend to their fields, the majority of the villagers spend these pleasant, warm months in the jungle to the west. Here they hunt and forage, sharing the undergrowth with small animals and plentiful wild fruits.

The game within the jungle is mostly small and fast - rabbits and boars and large birds. Our hunters, still adapting to this way of life and this foreign land, aren’t able to compete with the bounty our foragers bring home this season.

The Harvest comes and goes, bringing with it a fresh crop of fresh vegetables. It is only enough to tide the small village over, though, and the locals face the coming Chill with far less food than is ideal. Many of the villagers are starting to show serious discontent with the arrangement, voicing concerns that their last livestock will need to be slaughtered soon just to survive. With them gone, what other domestication options will this wild land offer?

Much of this passing season is spent constructing, the villagers banding together to improve their lot in life with a new forge. It’s simple, but it serves it’s purpose - with the right ingredients, the settlers are on track to start producing heartier structures, new tools and sharper weapons.

The rest of the townsfolk use this season to fish down on the beach, bringing in nets full of small fish and crustaceans.

As the third icy Chill set in on the small town, rations dwindled. Many villagers swore away from eating meat, though, and focused their efforts on producing more from the lands around their small village. Their sacrifice ensured some of the livestock could survive another season, perhaps long enough to deliver new young, but the current course of consumption was definitely unsustainable.

The majority of the days this Chill were spent trying to replenish the food stores of the village - men, women and children alike ventured out from their homes, hunting the plains and jungles to the west, as well as fishing along the coastline. While their efforts brought in some game, the cold weather has seemingly chased off much fo the large beasts who own this land.

While hunting across the muddy plains to the west, villagers once again came across some strange tracks that seemed quite fresh. They claim these tracks were much like humans, but smaller and scattered all about in erratic patterns.

As the Chill sets in, the villagers make the most of the non-farming season to see to some new crops. The weather is rough, however, and most days are spent indoors trying to thaw and stay warm. A day of rain becomes an entire week, cold winds lashing at the small village atop the cliffs, and very little progress is made in getting new seeds in the ground.

Beyond this, a band of settlers set out across the plains and toward the jungle to seek out the tracks they found in the months gone by. It was clear at this point that they were not alone in this foreign land - discovering who their neighbours were (possibly allies, or potential threats?) was vital to their ongoing development here.

It did not take long to find answers.

While a band of villagers was out searching the western plains, they stumbled across a group of small, wild looking humans. They were alien in design - far shorter than the average man, lean and muscular, their skin a yellowish colour - and both wore and held primitive looking rags and weapons. The creatures did not know how to communicate in the civilised tongue of the settlers, but were curious enough to hang around for a few moments.

How did the settlers respond?

The group stood by, careful not to make any rash actions or suddenly movements, and simply remained quiet as they watched the small-men. The creatures were odd, moving in an animal-like fashion and muttering to one another in quiet, indistinct tongues. They were not hostile, though - indeed, they seemed as curious about this new discovery as the settlers were.

Once this odd introduction of analysis and inspection ended, a few minutes after it began, one of the small creatures gave out a shrill call and they began to withdraw. Tactfully, and with precision, the wild looking small-men covered one another with their primitive spears and clubs until all had disappeared into the dense jungle.

Back in the village...

[ SPECIAL EVENT ]

Amelia gave birth in the dead of Chill, with Julius by her side and the village’s local physician doing all he could to assist the process. After a strained evening, the early hours of a cold morning brought the new baby boy into the world.

Not only does the village grow, but a lightheartedness falls to most families as they watch their tireless leader embrace his first born. A moment of respite from the harshness of this foreign land, and a reminder of the joy society and civilisation can bring this place.

As leader to the settlers and this new village, Julius now has an heir. What will his name be?

>> Jonathon
>> Adam
>> Cyrus
>> Walter

>>3163367

>>3163373

And so the Chill came to a close, with very few rations, new neighbours and a brand new heir to the small village of settlers. The people survive this season off food from previous hunts and fish from the ocean. Beyond these meagre offerings, the barn may as well be empty.

A child was born (Cyrus, to Julius and Amelia!)
Amelia’s birthday passed - she is now 35.

For the coming Season, we should focus on…

Last turn report for tonight anons - I better call it a day. I’ll most likely reboot the thread tomorrow around 0500 GMT - if not, same time the day after. If you’re enjoying, keep it alive - thanks for playing!

Seed brings new life to the town, though the stores of food and resources still dwindle. Not yet giving up, and driven by Julius’ unwavering leadership, the villagers set about two key projects - completion of the new fields, to hopefully double their yield in the coming Harvest, and construction of a fishing dock down on the coast.

The weather is good and easy, the construction goes well, and the fields are seeded once more. Alas, it all comes too late for the current season, and food dries up quickly.

Following previous decision not to let the livestock entirely dwindle, the town moves to emergency rations - most people don’t have breakfast, some also skip lunch.

By the time the Heat has arrived, 6 of the villages are unwell and no longer fit for work.

Julius’ birthday has passed - he is now 30.
A lamb was born.
Some tools (farming and building) were broken from use.

And so the quest continues...

>> Fishing the river mouth

The hot months are spent focusing on the food supply - the settlers have seen the worst of it now, and the valuable lesson of fore planning has been learned. They are determined to not let this wild, untamed land get the better of them again.

Those without jobs in the small village are dwindling - most are busy farming the fields or fishing at the dock, producing substantial amounts of food while doing so.

The rest, including some inquisitive children, take trips to the river mouth to the west, fishing with spears and nets and homemade rods. The river is brimming with life and the bounty is plentiful. For the first time since their arrival over 2 years prior, the villagers are starting to feel a state of abundance is just around the corner!

The small village progresses into the Harvest season with high hopes.

Fishing is now a permanent fixture of the tribe, and happens all year round (like farming, except fishing has an income every season. This season has seen significant income due to normal fishing + additional fishing by the rest of the tribe, with a Great Success roll.

- A lamb is born.
- Four villages are now fit for work.
- One child has come of age.
- The villages mood has significantly increased.

Much of the harvest is spent in Juliusburg and down by the seas - fishermen and farmers have brought in plentiful supplies, at least enough to see through the coming cold months. The rest of the villagers set about building a more formal pasture for the livestock, few as they may be. Now the beasts have plentiful space and some shelter for the cold and rainy parts of the year.

>> Hunting along fresh water sources

The cold months came upon Juliusburg once more and most of the villagers spent their days trying to stay warm and dry. The small dock was stilled manned, bringing in a humble catch, but the key to the season’s activity was the hunting party that ventured out toward the fresh water river.

Here, with quite simple weapons and farming instruments, the villagers were able to land a few pieces of game - some deer and rabbits - though the pickings were slim. This humble catch, though, should keep the town running for another couple of seasons to come.

- One child has come of age.
- A cow was born.
- A chicken hatched.
- Juliusburg has adopted a new Edict to prevent over-culling its livestock. Villagers will now automatically obey this law in seasons to come.

>> Research farming (41) I’m calling it Strategy

As the hot months roll in, the villagers focus more of their attention on perfecting their abilities. Having been here for so long, and having stuck to the old-ways all this time, some of the more seasoned farmers have decided there must be a better way to produce their crops.

By the end of the month, with much theory, discussion and experimentation, some of the older folk are sure they’re close to a breakthrough which should improve the Harvest. It’s all about how they furrow the fields, they say.

A little more time spent on the hypothesis should find the secret... at least Amelia reassures them so.

[ SPECIAL EVENT ]

As the Heat arrives, Juliusburg is due to celebrate 5 full cycles of the seasons since the citizens first landed on these foreign beaches. Over this time they have built the foundations of a new community, explored the wild surrounds, survived food shortages and run-ins with the locals, and observed their leader usher in a new heir. It only seems right, most of them have been saying, that some kind of celebration take place.

Is now the time to celebrate?

>> Yes, we will hold a feast and night of revelry to acknowledge all we’ve achieved

Indeed, a party occurs, and the villagers of Juliusburg spend a summer evening reveling in their fortune and the bounties of this new land!

- The villages mood has significantly increased.

The evening is not to pass without incident, however...

[ SPECIAL EVENT ]

During the revelry a man name Jacobs, after a little too much gluttony at the feast, disappeared for a few moments off into the shadows to relieve himself by the pasture. To his shock, he quickly learned that he wasn’t alone.

Horrified by the sight of three hulking creatures lurking by the cattle, Jacobs turned to flee back to the rest of the village, his pants still hanging around his knees. His cries echoed through the night, just loud enough for a few neighbours to hear, though a crudely sharpened stone axe thrown into his back ensured he never made it back to the party!

When the first responders came running to investigate - Julius at their front - their torch lights illuminate the three great beasts who had used the darkness of the night to skulk into camp. The three stood tall, almost 8 feet, and snarled with vicious fangs that dripped with saliva and filth. They wore primitive looking rags, but their bodies seemed leathery and covered in odd patches of hair. Their eyes, almost cat-like, shined green in the flickering light.

One of the beasts turned to face the approaching mob, seemingly not intimidated by them, while the other two worked at tackling two of the cows and hoisting them, jerking around in horror, over the pasture fence.

Feeling his companions slink away or tremble in trepidation in the face of such beasts, Julius…

A vicious battle ensued, the rest of the small band of villagers spurred to action at the sight of their fearless leader charging headlong toward the beast. The huge creature roared - a sound none of the folk of Juliusburg had ever heard - and swiped with razor sharp claws toward Arcada.

The man was too fast, though, dodging the first blow and returning it in kind. Blood splashed across the dark grass as steel bit into flesh. Well then, if they bleed… Julius thought. He turned the small hand-cannon in his second hand toward the monster, which was reeling from the blow, and unloaded the weapon into the thing’s chest. The blast was deafening.

The rest of the battle subsided in moments - the other two beasts fled once their companion was dead, chased off down the hillside by other members of the village brandishing weapons. They were too agile, too fast to catch, and the pair quickly disappeared into the shadows of the night.

With Amelia’s guidance, enthusiasm spreads quickly, and by the time Chill is approaching the people of Juliusburg are adamant their new methods will produce a far superior crop this coming year.

The months of Chill go by quickly and pleasantly, with temperatures hardly dropping low enough for fires to be stoked. The idle villagers about town are joined by surplus Farmers and spend much of this time at work, building a new fortification that stands right on the edge of Juliusburg, facing downhill toward the jungle.

The watchtower is manned day and night by the usual patrols, giving a breathtaking view of the surrounding lands. The sight of such a towering monument puts man restless souls at ease.

Some of the locals have begun to complain about their homes - living conditions are becoming quite cramped, with some housesresting 6 or 7 people at night.

The hot months saw the arrival of some early crops and plentiful harvests from the ocean. Content, and with full bellies, the rest of the village spent this season with the unfortunate task of preparing new latrines and places of cleaning.

The improvements are slim, but make a lot of difference from day to day, and ultimately the locals are please with the new additions to their home.

- A calf was born.
- A chicken hatched.
- A child was born.
- Julius’ birthday has passed - he is now 33.
- 7 of your Farming tools have broken from use.
- The villages mood has increased.

Since we no longer can explore due to proximity of village. Maybe build some carts (or research if we do not know) so we can carry food with us for larger distances, also it will help with the workload around

>>3165300 - While you have a forge, you don't have any useful materials at your disposal to make new tools.

>>3165301 - You have not explored to the full extent you can by foot. Also, the line of no return is only based on 1 Season - you can send people beyond this by foot, they'll just take a Season (or more) to return and might need extra supplies. That all said, yes you can build very basic carts (due to only timber as a resource)

>> Researching better fishing techniques (35)

For the Harvest, while farmers see the fields and the usual workers see to the ocean, idle villagers work on new ways to improve their sealife bounty. There are few advancements they imagine without the use of large fishing vessels and huge nets, but there’s still some room for improvement - simpler and faster spears, stronger rods, thicker nets.

While development and experimentation is still ongoing by the end of the season, our researchers feel sure they only need a little longer to finalise some of these new ideas.

For the coming season, CHILL, we should focus on…

>> Complete research into Fishing [NIL]

As the cold season passes, most of the villagers settle in for a handful of more relaxing months. The fishermen continue to work the ocean, as best they can in this weather, and the rest of the idle hands about town use their time perfecting some of the hypothesised fishing tools and techniques from last season.

They are sure, moving forward, that the ocean’s harvest will be more bountiful than ever.

- 2 chickens hatched.

>> Constructing a herbalist hut

While the fields are sown, some of the villagers gather together over these cooler months to assemble a new addition to Juliusburg - a place for the sick and ill to rest and be treated. The herbalist’s hut, much like all buildings in town, is still quite primitive and limited. It is stocked as best the villagers can, though, and is open for business for anyone with an ailment.

>> Exploring for ore (88)

With a lucrative bounty coming in, both from the waves and the fields, many of the villagers spend this warm Season exploring further to the south. Their goal - to find some ore in which to grow their little civilisation with.

While the granary at home fills up, the explorers stumble upon a flush deposit of rock foothills not far from the beach to the south. They are some way away, though this place will most definitely be able to supply Juliusburg with the supplies it needs.

DISCOVERED - stone and iron ore!

Once a mine is operable in this location, miners can begin supplying iron ore and stone to the town.

New Edict - children spend their last year of childhood (at age 15) helping to man the Sentry Tower.

- 2 chickens hatched.
- 2 calves were born.

How about we start constructing a fishing dock at the mine location? That way cpnstructing the mine and watchtower later will be easier since we will have proper transport methods


Also, Julius should take a break now that the stocks are full end enjoy Amelia's company more then ever, they are not getting any younger both of them.
