Dwarves Uniting, Saving Our Race

[Battleme33 196]

I have talked with CountJuno88 and many other in TS. We as Dwarves are obviously in decline. One of the best options out there I think is to move. This was suggested by CountJuno and I think it is our best chance, he has been around since Simppa, granted not with the Dwarves but he has seen how great our race can be. Karik is an amazing city, sadly we don't have the players to stay here. If we move he hinted at GM support to get the new city done quickly. I think moving into something much smaller is best. Something along the lines of a grand hall, with supporting areas for everything around it, very compact secure and full of Dwarves for RP opportunity. Think of a hall like in old Inner-Kal Urguan with everything we need right there. It would be a nice space where you could actually SEE OTHER DWARVES! how 'bout tat! We would retain all of our lands and have the same borders, just a different capital location. It could even be closer to spawn if everyone agreed, this would bring more travelers to the city and even more RP, not that we would have to be nice to them =). I think this would be our best bet to saving our race which is so obviously in decline. All Dwarves united clanking their mugs and hammering out goods on their anvils. Back to our roots, stubborn and fierce. We could use Karik as a kind of stronghold/ruin or something. Even a right of passage for future kings or councilors to venture to in rp that could allow them to get in touch with the ancients.

Ya I think this will be gudddddddddddddddddddd!!! 1+

I think we should ask the monks for a 5 x 5 space so that we can all live together.

Honestly, yes, we do need a new city. If the GM's would agree to regen the current Karik region and "collapse" the city, that would be helpful. If not, we will have to find a new location and begin anew. I recommend a central dome with a tavern in the center.

I think this is a very good idea. But i do not know if everybody would be interested in doing so.

That could work as well I could see a giant town circle/domed area as well with everything around it.

Even if I dun't like t'e idea, I've ta admit, t'e reasons are evident.

Karik, as et es now, is simply ta big.

I'd look forward, if ye find an area, ta 'elp ye plannin' t'e defenses.

But I disagree with the regen thing...maybe cover it up and lock it untill we dwarves have enough people to populate it.

That is what this post is for, getting feedback, if this is generally accepted by the Dwarves we could start the new city very soon.

Why not give it a shot, obviously karik hasnt worked as we would all hope it would. I just hope this doesn't take forever to get some support from the GM's.

As you are the defense coordinator that would be your area of expertise =)

I, for one, may not ever leave te city just because Arbrek's like that. It is an interesting idea, though I will remain neutral.

Like I said me and CountJuno came up with this, and Tyrion is a big part of the Dwarves so i'm sure it wouldn't take too long to get some help =). We have a lot of materials built up as well so we could use those as well. A little world edit for clearing a small cavern would be pretty much the bulk of GM work, we could take it from there and make the city itself.

Like I said earlier on the pm, we should have it to be accessible if we ever desired to return when our playerbase is high enough. Kinda like the dwarves from the Hobbit returning to their old city.

[Juvens 199]

Maybe, if we are lucky, we can get a gm to voxel us a little cave...looks better and is easier...but needs to be done when server isnt that populated because of the laag that it makes.

[Arbrek the Ancient 140]

Question, I'd everyone abandons the city, can Arbrek just stay and sit on the Throne, "ruling", the city untill he dies, you come back, or he is dragged away?

I think dis is a good idea, I think instead of te old city collapsing there should be a vision by a priest or something that te gods are warning us that if we continue to stay in Karik there will be a disaster and the dwarf race will cease to exist, it would give us a more rp reason to leave and I think it could be a ton of fun having everyone grabbing what they can and go on basically another pilgrimage that the gods lead us to. It woul help jump start the new religion and give us a chance to reunite the dwarf race, as for Holm and Kal Dwain the leaders could have a vision as well telling them to save the dwarven race by returning and eventually becoming the superior race of Asulon.
