The rovaick recently got animal domestication and the hain have domesticated urtelem for ages. Don't know about taming in the capacity of non-farm animals though.

As far as I know there are no Cow/Sheep domesticating or horse riding.

@LokiLeo789
Yeah, but its going to cost might no?

Riding creatures has not been conceived yet, save for Liffy's marionette horses, but they're marionettes. The best you otherwise have is hain riding white giants for planned travel, but they aren't directed like a horse is. White giants just wander their routes without paying the riders any heed unless they're designated stomp-fodder.

Horse riding would require might at this stage, though. At this stage, people used chariots at best in our equivalent history (at a stretch). It took a while before successful animal trainers were crazy enough to start riding those big, strong, moody, panicky, bucking, skull-cracking, unpredictable creatures known as horses.

Well we are quite behind then. We hitting the bronze age and have no wheel, math, reading, or writing. Xerxes should some of develp that on thier own at this point. Humanity did. As for horses, we got goblins, there bound to do stupid stuff like jump on the back of a big, strong, moody, panicky, bucking, skull-cracking, unpredictable creature. It all has to start somewhere. Aren't you glad someone decided to suck from a cows utter?

<Snipped quote by LokiLeo789>

Well, that is because we are "hitting" the bronze age, as in, getting close to it. There isn't even bronze around yet, so it's not that time yet.

There is no need to rush stuff because in the OOC we started to refer to this time as "Bronze Age".

I think ideograms are going to come along in all of Galbar right now, considering that Phantasmagoria introduced Petroglyphs.

I did a little update on the tech tree

I decided to mark Xerxes stuff as its own thing because otherwise the RP is just going to move far too fast with its technology. I mean, Amartia is already flirting with classical age stuff from what I can tell.

We need to set up the animal domestication across the globe. I think I can do dogs and cats.

The stonehenge stuff, the megalith monuments and all that, leave it to me too. That is why I created the grand parade.

Alefpriel's harbor is probably going to spread sailing across Jvan's ocean, on Xerxes side however, the tech probably will take a while longer to arrive, unless there is some intervention.

Whoooh hoo! Sailing!

Well, the Ultreem is a plus. But I'm looking into horse riding. Do I need a god to bring that to fruition? Of can Sin do that.

<Snipped quote by LokiLeo789>

The Lifprasilians ride wooden horses - but a Demi-God can def do that.

<Snipped quote by poog the pig>

...splintery. I'll look into it. Sin kinda having kids right now.

I'm personally eager to get moving as being stuck in the primitive age gives very, very little opportunities for good writing, and you can barely bring any mention to anything mortal. The only thing that matters is gods because the poor dumb mortals can barely grasp what pictures mean. I'd really like to get moving on to the point where instead of gods wandering around doing other things to other gods all on their lonesome, we express our powers by clashing empires against each other.

<Snipped quote by WrongEndoftheRainbow>

That's insulting - Alefprian citizens, particularly Lifprasilians and their cousin races (Vulamerians and Vestecians as I call them) are particularly smart; but they don't have a grip upon mathematics. They do have a complex language, though, it's called "the First Tongue".

I think you're not giving ancient species enough rep, as a society we have grown smarter, but pre-history humans were basically more intelligent as an individual. Write a spinoff story or something - there's no use insulting the writing possibilities of a simpler era in history.

<Snipped quote by poog the pig>

It was a hyperbole. What I'm saying is we can barely come up with any use for mortals in anything above a small village level, which to me is boring. I want to write epics, erect great monuments, create great institutions of knowledge. I want to be able to incorporate mortal proceedings in my writing more. Less gods and maybe 10-60 mortals attacking another god, and more gods and heroes leading armies of 10,000+ to attack another god. Makes for a more grandiose story. The massive fight between the chaos hordes and the valley of peace angels was really interesting to me, since it was an example where mortals and gods clashed in an impressive manner.
