It appears I have some work cut out for me. Apologies for how short this post is but I'll try and elaborate more once I've finished my next spire event post and updated the rules in the OOC. I should have that all done by tomorrow evening at which point I'll try to address everything currently happening as best as I can.

Since Legion dropped out, I should clarify that he was the last person I was planning to do a collab with. We had talked about doing something, but it has been awhile since we had talked about it. So the only thing I have to do now is the aftermath of the plant spire event for the dwarf colony and the meeting with Iva.

Just an update: I've come down with a cold which has slowed down my creative processes a tad. I'd rather take another day to flesh out a post rather than rush something so I'll try and have the update on the event up tomorrow. My apologies for this delay.

@Lord Zee@Vega7@ZekariVoblis@Stern Algorithm@Duoya@Kalas@Lmpkio@Dealdric@Leotamer

I have posted the update! In addition I am performing both a roll-call and a notification to find out who's still participating and to let everyone know the changes made to the rules.

I've gone ahead and mentioned everyone I believe is still actively participating so they will see this announcement. Do keep in mind that my memory isn't perfect so if I haven't mentioned you and you're still participating do let me know. If you were mentioned and you aren't participating my apologies if I may have forgotten or missed that OOC post.

I'm announcing that I've added a new rule to the OOC rules section. As I've mentioned in the past I do not allow deities to be brought in as NPC's since they are too important to the narrative to be relegated to the status of side characters. There are events which effect the divine on a global scale (such as the upcoming event) and will apply to all deities, no exceptions. This wasn't, however, a printed rule on the front page before so I decided to finally update it to include that. Now, I'll be lenient towards those who might be dabbling in such matters before this announcement since it wasn't strictly a rule until now but from here on out there will be no deities without players sitting about the world. My apologies to those this negatively effects but I feel this needs to be implemented for the good of the story.

As a side note this only applies to deities. Other creations are free to remain unattended for any amount of time. If they occupy a fair chunk of the land and the player behind them has left they may run the risk of being acted upon by other players. I shall respect my player's wishes whenever possible, regardless of whether they wish to remain or leave.

It certainly has been a rather hectic holiday. Having a cold I've still been running at low wattage for much too long for my tastes and things really haven't slowed down in that time. People have joined, people have left and things have been a bit of a jumble over these holidays. Nevertheless I am happy to say that with those still on board for this journey I still have much in store and we're moving full steam ahead.

My aim is to cover several important periods of history where the world is ripe for shaping, each stage punctuated with events which reveal why Tabrasa, the divine and humanity are the way that they are. This is but the first stage in this world's history and depending on how you all feel the time spent between the next stages will be either much farther apart or closer together. Overall I estimate that the meat of the story will take place around the point where humanity will have developed the majority of the building blocks necessary for the trappings of a high-fantasy medieval adventure. This means castles, cities and weapons more complex than stones tied to the ends of sticks. What else they have is up to you all as you are their gods. Their future is yours to shape.

Edit: @ZAVAZggg@Stabby - Here's a mention for you both as well since I'm due to introduce your deities once the passage into the next stage arrives.

@A Lowly Wretch Of course, I am still participating till the end :D

Btw, just to be clear, I assume that the current spire is finally finished right? Or simply on its decline?

I am here.

I am still here

@Lmpkio - There's one more post left for this event. The culmination of this power, much like the Fear Spire event, will result in a new Divine Cord being born into this world. It's fate will either be decided... Or not. I have a plan either which way this goes.

I'm here and ready to use other gods creations that have long since been forgotten.

@A Lowly Wretch

I'll be around till the party stops.

Hopefully that will be awhile.

Still here, apologies for inactivity - holiday madness.

Happy New Year everyone

Will get a post up tomorrow.

Edit: Make that Thursday

I guess I've sorted a few things out, so if I may ask, is it okay if I were to return here ~ ?

@Noodles - Of course. Shall I return Ral to the roster list of deities?

@A Lowly Wretch ~ Sure thing! Will work on an update right away ^_^

Also, any brief sum-ups on those current events that I've missed? :X

I could be wrong, but I think the big important things is that the fear spiral showed up and made everyone scared, people tried to break it and Oao took the fear chord and assimilated it. A plant spiral showed up and made a big tree and turned everyone into plants, and people tried to break, and it is still ongoing. Gammaton has been going around trying to get all of the gods to show up for a meeting.

And finally posted! So sorry for the wait!

Drakairos back-stabbing Thesan:

@Stern Algorithm

Lesson of the day: Never try to wrestle power with a literal god. Especially when you aren't in their good graces. :P

Thesan: YOU FOOL! YOU ABSOLUTE BAFOON! I HAVE THE POWERS OF A GOD YOU FOWL CREATURE! AND I WILL NOT BE BULLIED BY~!

*Gets Sparta Kicked into the void*

Drakairos: Puny dwagon.

Posted, wasn't much but I just wrote a re-intro :T ~
