MOD | This page includes mods. The content is not part of normal DF as released. Changing game files can sometimes cause unexpected results, and should always be done with care and caution. |
It is essentially an entire re-write of Dwarf Fortress. It adds new creatures, new entities, new Megabeasts, and new minerals.
Storyline
The world of Dawncastle has experianced a terrible disaster--the Dark Wizards, Sorcerers and
Dracon have made a pact to destroy the world. For the most part, they succeeded--the dwarves, once a great and powerful race, have fallen, and some, tempted by greed and power, joined the Dark Allies. Some of the Elves, sworn to vengeance on this menace, have exiled themselves to prevent interferance from the rest of their kind.
The goblins, a mountainous species, have been engulfed in a civil war. The basilisks have
been awoken from their eternal slumber, wreaking havoc on all civilizations. The drakes have
begun to interbreed with basilisks, creating the dreaded dragons--and the demons, once
peaceful, have begun to attack, forcing the last clan of wizards to lock them away into chambers deep underground, encased in solid adamantine.
And the Dark Allies have created a large monsterous goblinoid--the Veilcarisi--to spread
their will throughout the land, though the Veilcarisi wanted slaves--Dark Wizard slaves--and they turned against their makers.
This is the world from which the Dwarves would rebuild their race--through any means
necessary...

Development
The prototype, not yet available, is currently being tested for impurities before being released. The latest update to the program was 9/27/09, and will be edited on 10/7/09 to include the Creatures discribed above.
The mod is going to be released soon, although how soon that might be is currently disputed. When it is released, however, it will come as seven--or more!--different mods. The first is the Creatures mod. This will include, but is not limited to, dinosaurs, mechanical beasts, snakes, giant tarantulas, war wolves, Megalodons, and many new megabeasts. But beware. Some of the megabeasts will be mechanical!
