[OOC] A Worldbuilding Exercise [Private]

[Carlyle]

Since the roleplaying sections are the only places that you can have more than 1 tab, I'll be using the tabletop section for this. As stated by the title, this is a private worldbuilding thread for people that I've invited. For those who are invited, if you need a copy of the DoW rules, I'll link you them.

Current Participants:
- @Asura | God name, Goddess of Agriculture, Fertility and Prosperity
- @Grey | God name
- @HokumPocus | Lustra
- @Inkarnate | Ileuad, Elven Goddess of Shadows, Deceit and the Moon
- @Kuro | Miphine, Elven Goddess of War, Loyalty and Justice
- @Lord Orgasmo | Yeagnasae, Goddess of the Elements
- @LordVoldemort | Aidan, God of the Sun, Light and Time
- @Raijinslayer | God name, God of Destruction, Creation, Rebirth, and Storms
- @Sloth | Obris
- @Xiro Zean | Ysel, God of Dreams, Development, and Passion

Turn order:
- Lord Orgasmo | 16 [+2]
- Asura | 14 [+2]
- Sloth | 13 [+2]
- LordVoldemort | 12 [+2]
- Grey | 11 [+2]
- Inkarnate | 11 [+2]
- Xiro Zean | 11 [+2]
- Kuro | 10 [+2]
- HokumPocus | 9 [+2]
- Raijinslayer | 9 [+1]

Feel free to keep your "god" general or be really specific with it, giving them a name/job like the DnD gods or whatever. I'll start once we get a total of five people in here, but I may invite more people later on or start with more people than that depending. For now, roll a 2d6 and link the results to me so I can order who goes first. Whenever you spend points, please give me the cords to where you're trying to spend your points, or screencap the area on map so I can change/add to it.

[Carlyle]

Right; so now that it's 11 PM CST, I want to get things rolling since we have a considerable group by now. If you have yet to finish your god, there is no rush as I expect this to take a bit.

@HokumPocus As no one rolled higher than you, you get to go first.



You have the choice of choosing from this list or saving your points. For the sake of simplifying things, the 1'' = 1 square.

[HokumPocus]

Turn 1

An Ancient Energy Stirs…

---

In a world without children, a being rests above, watching. It is Lustra, more phenomenon than creature, enveloping the stars with a soft light that twinkles across the inky sky like diamonds.

On this night with no name and no history Lustra is alone.

Yeagnasae, the goddess of the Elements sits in a deep slumber. As she tosses and turns, the world begins to shift.
In a land to the northwest, the elements begin to manifest themselves in new ways...

The air grows warm and humid, giving rise to lush greens and rain. Plant life seems to be flourishing.

[Raijinslayer]

Within the bowels of the land . . . something stirs. It is slight, with little purpose or direction, reacting to something it does not know. Yet from the veins of the world, pulsing with the rush of magival power, it begins to think. It begins to wonder. It begins to form.

Nothing happens . . ..for now.

Turn 1

The Sun begins to shine...

---

His eyes stared down at the land, watching various beings manipulate the world to their liking. If he was to have this rock orbit his domain, then he too would take part in it's shape. His hands reached out, molding the landscape to his liking as a distant dream of beings made in his image lived off the land; oh how he yearned to create children grateful for their existence.

This brings great sorrow. Muse, play me a song of desperation.

---

Manadd, the God of the Seas, the Earth and the Underworld, Lord of That Which Lay Beneath, looked upon the divine tapestry, sundered by his power, and found its canvas wanting. With wrathful might, he stirred the depths and he scattered the god-touched waters across the world. The utterances of the beasts of the land, the sea, and the sky had pleased him; their land would receive his boon.

So it is written.

[Raijinslayer]

Again sensations trembled through the earth, rousing the being as it felt something coil through its formless consciousness.

Irritation.

Shifting and writhing within the land's veins of magic, it lashes out. Mana surges forth, twisting and tearing at the earth, winds, and sky with its rage.

Action: Shape Climate

I4- Eternal Storm raging over the entire square, with only a single center of calm within the center

H21- Wild Magic pours into the area, dangerous and uncontained it lashes out at anything and everything, causing strange disfigurations within the area. A very hazardous place.

Action: Shape Land

P6- Rising upward into the sky and down into the earth are strange black crystals that spread like a disease. The largest of these crystals is an ebon spire that can be seen from miles upon miles away. From time to time, the stones pulse with red and golden energy, as if about to burst, before soon settling once more.

S5- A massive canyon range is carved into the earth, possessing cavernous caves within the rock faces that reached deep into the bowels of the land.

Points remaining: 1 of 11
