so why were people complaining about the distance it takes to trade? people have crossing continents to trade for thousands of years, it's not that hard especially when a lot of money is involved.

XD I'm pretty much the only one complaining, only because i just realized the distance isn't that big.

I wonder if there will be undiscovered landmasses our can explore and colonized.

Has Golem been around recently? I'm interested unless he's been away.

[Titanic]

He's been gone for about a day

I'm back from my day in museums, did something happen which would be directed towards me?

I think so, someone wanted the area where you were building your nation but we told her it was taken. She might build her nation east of yours.

[Sauron The Dark Lord]

Golem said nothing?

[RavenxVoid]

He hasn't been on for a bit

[Rare]

He has been M.I.A. Anyways, did he say that the ones on the map can post?

[Sauron The Dark Lord]

Jesus Christ, I can't edit anything unless he gives me instructions..

[Red Wizard]

I've had a very busy weekend. Life 'n shit, you know. Will look at things over the next day. Once I've accepted the remaining NSs, we start playing.

[Titanic]

Golem, do you agree to this trade route?

Everyone in the trade routes agreed to it but you.

[RavenxVoid]

We should make a IRC

Don't want to go all fantasy on this, but would it be reasonable to have daemons/monsters, god-gifted weapons and mutations that your people can utilize, or are we keeping religion and the like to a more realistic "I believe X, therefore Y." and separating reality from mythology?

[Sauron The Dark Lord]

I think daemons are of sentience and therefor don't exist. Atleast that's what I understood.

My nation has a close relationship with religion, instead of gods. For example, they manifest themselves through six third party priests. The kicker is that they cannot leave their home city or else they lose their connection, therefore they die since they're a few hundred years old. Although they don't really have any powers, they're simply there. I'm pretty sure that's the most religious standpoint on magic in any faction, and it's not very powerful at that. But I'd venture a guess that sentient demons wouldn't be existent on this plane.

[TheSovereignGrave]

I think the most religious standpoint on religion would be my Hands of the Mother. They're four priests/priestesses whose power they believe comes directly from their Goddess, who has been known to (supposedly) give visions to them on occasion. Though the last time that (supposedly) happened was 1,000 years ago. And it's up for debate whether their power is a gift from their Goddess or whether the Hands of the Mother are just the only ones taught to channel their extreme devotion and reverence for their Goddess into magical powers.

So as for daemons, it's probably a no since daemons are sentient. A god-gifted weapon might be possible if it's ambiguous as to whether or not it's actually god-given; it could just be a weapon forged by magic a really long time ago and that has come to be believed to have been a gift from the Gods.
