Nobody else really thinks about them.

It's the perfect little base for me.

Ok then, go ahead and make one. Preferably with  a link to my mightiest peak (Mount Onett, divine feature)

Right then.

Apotheosi looks at the whole of the planet, gazing shortly upon his brothers creations. It frowns at the whole of the sphere and finds it... lacking. The great hourglass of magic spins rapidly, as its first and possibly greatest act was realized.

Lift out a massive sphere of everything out of the planet, crush it into a ball, and set it into orbit.

I had considered making a moon, however it was stated that creating other celestial masses would have high cost.

I don't know if it is possible to create a moon with 5 power, but that is up to the GM.

Turn 1: Pillar Envy


I create a mighty continent, right in the center of the world. Fill it with rolling hills, massive mountains, and collosal caves.
[2+1] You create a massive continent of dull hills, blunted mountains, and large but shallow caves.

-3 Power
+5 Power



Create a region, an massive mountain jutting out of the ocean, i dont care about safety issues either, I have 6 wings for gods sake, i can survive falling off it.
[5] You create an imposing mountain, jagged and severe.

-2 Power
+5 Power



Upon viewing this new land mass, Ferren decides to add his own touch.  The gods of this land should have a place to meet and come to terms.

Ferren creates an Island Region to the North of the continent, and at its very center raises the land in a small circle.  Upon this small circle Ferren creates a Divine Feature - A golden pillar that emanates a peaceful feeling and could form a ring with five other pillars.

"This land is nothing without life."
[6] You create a fairly large island, sloping off into the sea at the sides, and with a small circular mesa in its center.

[3+1] You create a golden pillar, positioned to as to allow five evenly spaced others like it. It emanates feelings of peace to all nearby.

-2 Power, -3 Power
+5 Power



Nassharath Enedrasi creates a continent a little far from the already existing landmasses, but divided in two. Half of it made of chasms, wastelands and harsh, unforgiving weather, and the remaining half with a surface welcoming to life, with only a narrow (some kilometers wide) passage connecting both.

He then proceeds to send a dark, bleeding pillar covered in armor and wrapped in chains (Divine Feature) to land next to the golden one. It stays silent.
[2] You create a landmass, but it's little more than scrubland and mud pits which receive fairly consistent drizzle and light rain.

[6] You then create a vibrant jungle right next to it. The mass fuses with your existing continent, leaving no particular transitionary region.

[6] You handle the excessive expenditure of power surprisingly well. Well enough to keep going in manic fashion.

[1+1] You create a dull red slab near the other pillar.

-3 Power, -3 Power, -3 Power
+5 Power



Mavet studies the works of the others and adds a pillar of black stone covered in bones to the other side of the golden pillar (Divine Feature), then with his remaining power, he starts to work on an underground cavern network (Region).
[2+1] You create a black stone pillar streaked with white.

[5] You create a masterful series of caves and caverns below the island containing the pillars.

-3 Power, -2 Power
+5 Power



Right then.

Apotheosi looks at the whole of the planet, gazing shortly upon his brothers creations. It frowns at the whole of the sphere and finds it... lacking. The great hourglass of magic spins rapidly, as its first and possibly greatest act was realized.

Lift out a massive sphere of everything out of the planet, crush it into a ball, and set it into orbit.
[2] You lift a massive amount of everything, mash it futilely, and then hurl it into space. The result is a vaguely multicolored smear across the sky.

[4] You handle the excessive display of power reasonably well.

-8 Power
+5 Power

Nassharath Enedrasi rested and concentrated on producing energy to make his pillar as he intended to.
The newly-created continent by him shall be named Idathoras.

Apotheosi stares at the mess and mumbles, embarrassed. "I'll get back to that later." For now, it was tired, but decided to flick some life at the planet.

Giant spiders everywhere!

Also, as a god of magic, does that mean that every magical effect falls into my sphere?

No, in the same way that being a god of Earth doesn't give you power for each landmass. It has to be fairly explicitly magic-themed, and nothing else, to count.

Also, life has to be created in a specific area.

Ferren watches the spiders, and is immediately struck with great love for them.  Alas, it was not his idea to create such a magnificent creature.

Ferren creates a new Divine Creature to serve as his messengers - The Great Eagles, a male and a female, who fly around the Island, watching over it to maintain the sanctity of this holy place.  Their children and their children's children will fulfill their role as well.  Ferren shall grant them the gift of sentience and the power of speech.

Ferren decides the Island needs life.  He layers the area around the mesa with Exotic Ironwood trees, which are difficult to cut down and very strong.

"This Island shall hold the name Aerie."

So every Divine thing or magical-divine creature, plus other stuff. Gotcha. (Don't mind me, just mindlessly rule mongering.)

Um, Nameless continent three for the spiders.
