conversations.value: DMBlackhart: The nomadic lifestyle of your people has worn thin, and much talk of forming a permanant civilization is heard. You come from a vast deserted  wasteland  into stormy and harsh swamplands.
  
  The surronding area is dense  swampland , storm clouds hang angrily overhead. To the north is a vast  forest , and to the south the harsh desert you abandoned. Finally there is a large  lake  far to the east.
  
   Event 1- Turn 5  (Month 4, Fall)
  
  * Your civilization is ready to be born. Your people turn to you, their great leader, to decide on a location and name of the new people.
  
  * Your people wish to develop weapons to better defend themselves
  
  (You have 3 actions this turn)
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Helinon: Action 1) Move North to the forest.
  Action 2) Organize a settlement.
  Action 3) Assign hunters to look for food.
  
  Helinon looks over the swamps and thinks on the drastic change from their former home. He wonders if they would be able to live here. Sure there is plenty of food and water, but for the permanent settlement his people were calling for, the swampy muck would not be able to hold the weight of their buildings. His scouts had recently returned from the lands beyond this, and they told him of a large body of water to the east and a forest to the north. His choice was clear. To insure his people's safety, the terrain itself should benefit their abilities, and what better place for creatures like them but a forest where they could not only make weapons, but also buildings and a place to flee to in the case of defeat. He exits his tent to gather his fellow lycanthropes for the journey to their new home.
  
  The journey itself was uneventful. The native fauna kept their distance from the lycanthropes, sensing something alien about them, and they were able to eat the many fish that lived in the swampy water. After days of traveling, they reached a vast expanse of trees. It looked as though the forest was dense, which benefited them, and their abilities. As Helinon looks over the forest he immediately decided that with so many natural resources near this location, this place would be their new home for a good long time. "My friends! This place is a blessing to us! The forest will provide us with game, and wood for buildings and weapons, and the lake to the southeast will provide us with food as well. This place is perfect for us to build our home! So let us begin!" And with that Helinon sets to work assigning jobs and organizing his people. He deemed that food was the priority, so he personally organized and led the hunters on their first voyage into the forest.

  The last month had gone well. Food had been gathered, and thier position was secure enough. It was slowly getting colder, though with their ability to change and use their thick fur and hides to stay warm, that was really not a large problem. No the real problem was packs of animals, now knowing enough about them, encroaching on them, threatening to attack. They could fight as fierce as any animal, but these were intelligent predators. They would wait until there were small groups of them and then maul those poor souls. They needed weapons. The simplest weapon could also be the most effective. The trees' branches were perfect for creating a long hard pole, with a sharpened tip to skewer those animals before they could get close. "You there!' Helinon called out to one of the passing settlers, "I need you to gather 3 or 4 men to begin collecting wood from the forest. Tell them to collect wood that can be used for weapons as well as structures." the person nodded and went off to collect the men for the job. He had an idea for a bent stick with a vine attached to its ends that could be quite useful in hunting. But that was for another time, and he would have to experiment with the idea for awhile. in the meantime, he needed his people to have a constant source of food, not just hunting it. He then gathered the rest of his people and led them in an effort to cultivate the land around his settlement.
  
  Good?

conversations.value: DMBlackhart: The civilization of Haven has had a rough year, however they have proven themselves strong and reasourceful. The icy embrace of winter comes all too quickly, and with it the lake freezes, many of the fish die, and most of the surronding landscape becomes barren. This is only a minor setback for your people however, and you recover quickly.
  
  The lycanthrope people learn all too quickly their place in the world, and it's relation to the cosmos. The first full moon had come after many months, and the lycanthropy affliction set in. However this only furthered your peoples ferocity, and survival insticts.
  
  Winter is now comming to a close, and the start of a new year is at hand. Your people have made notable advancements as a tribe, and are prouder for it.
  
   Events! Turn 9 - (Month 9, winter)
  
  * The colder months prove trying to your people, resulting in a few casualties.
  
  * Your people people are having trouble adhering to your code of laws. Being
  a wild breed they seek more freedom then laws provide, however they obey grudgingly.
  
  * Your scouts return, bringing news of another scouting party off to the east. They describe these people as "Small Lizards".

conversations.value: Helinon: Month 11 
  1)Reduce laws, Make them guidelines for the race to obey.
  2)Send scouts to find the home of these small lizards.
  3)Develop preservation techniques for food.
  4)Train people in the art of controlling their forms.
  
  The last year had gone more or less as planned. While there were a few funerals to attend, Helinon's town had survived. Helinon noticed an unrest in the people ever since the moon had changed them, and felt that it had something to do with the laws set forth. He was thinking of changing the laws into a sort of guideline the people should follow. Somehow he knew that if they fought any outsiders and those outsiders got bitten by them, they would turn into lycanthropes as well. "That can't happen. I will not damn another race with that. They will be shunned by both our and their people." he said to himself.
  
  A recent problem had evolved. The discovery of a new people would complicate things. The lycanthropes would have to either accept them as allies, or attack them and become enemies. Helinon sighs. this was going to a headache that would not go away anytime soon. He would first approach them peacefully, and if they did the same he would open trade with them and allow both of them to flourish. If not he would have to mobilize the warriors for an attack.
  
  A problem that had plagued them in the winter was not the cold, but rather the lack of food. Since most of their food could only be found in the warmer months, they would have to find some way to allow their food stores to remain stocked for extended periods of time. There were some ideas for how to do this circulating the camp, and he would be testing those ideas on small portions of food.
  
  A fascination among his people was the type of form they would take when the moon was out. it would be neither man nor beast, but something in between. Helinon had set aside portions of his time to try and use this form while the moon was not out, for it could prove useful in hunting and on the field of battle. He had come far, and could remain in that hybrid form for half an hour uninterrupted. He would have to teach his people this.
