You are not going to get away with all this manifesting and influencing mortals without paying acts!
Besides, I really did have to raise those points. Or at least- Feinor did. Now, if you are creative, you can get done what you want to get done. If you don't, however- You might just see the way I reason when I determine certain outcomes.

Edit: I would also truly appreciate it if people were to organize that wiki (the link can still be found on the first page of this thread).

I am not influencing anyone yet. While convincing a tribe to go on an exodus will require an act, for now I'm just talking with a shaman and not doing anything godly.

I know. I was stating what would happen if you did. ^^
Regardless- If there's a response, I will try writing one more too (if valid) before I get my rest.

I was planning to get them to go on an exodus without an Act. I'll be saving that for making them not kill everyone once there. Though I'll argue that I gave them the Staff of Power so I could manipulate their ambition without the need for mind control or somesuch.

We'll see what happens, I haven't really decided what to do yet.

You never stated that you could manipulate ambitions through the staff of power. Besides- Causing an exodus is a pretty big thing, is it not?

Err - I will be using talking. Words. I mean that their ambitions are already boosted by the Staff. That is its only function. Exoduses are indeed big, which is why I need good words. You'll be the judge whether Ihanet buys them.

But that's still in the future. I may have other stuff to do first, ehehe.

Yes, but I've been considering to make manifesting to large groups of people or trying to sway certain mortals take actual acts. Especially since I'm going to hand out some more acts soon.

But we'll see. It depends on the other acts you might want to do. Maybe I'll think of them as being worth a whole act together. (I've done that before, but just didn't write it down.)

Ygdrass retreats back into the Jungle and creates the Mor'asc.

Spoiler: Mor'asc (click to show/hide)

You are attempting to create a sentient population of a new race that is larger than that of other tribes combined. You state that upon death their souls are treated differently than those of normal mortal beings. It is also a race that gets older than the current sentient race (humanity), breeds faster and possesses stronger senses.

Last, but not least, you shape their culture. And you shape it around your god.

While I can understand that your god would shape a new race (given that it is a rather abnormal god as well as the fact that it is a god of the seconds, not the first, generation), I'd like you to keep it within proportions. Do you have any suggestions on how we can do that?

The Soul thing was mainly as a replacement for the normal way to gain acts: while the other gods get acts through worship Yggdrass gets acts by adding more souls/minds to it's Hivemind, which it sacrifices again in its actions.

I thought the population size should have been within a limit that the population could reproduce but if you think its too much, then lets just take 300 or 150 or something....


But to answer your question:

reduce population to 300 (or whatever seems appropriate to you, i only took one thousand to keep the genepool large enough to prevent inbreeding)
reduce lifespan to 60 years. (being the first 30 years of their lives non-sentient gives them an effective lifespan of 30 years)
bring senses to human level.
Although not stated i envisioned that of a batch of 100 young roughly 10 survive (even higher infancy mortality rates would make breeding a bit difficult since 4 Genders and all that)

I hope I didn't kickstart a movement to make all the Gods have their own races.

There's been several Godhoods managed by others. I guess that you could try it too, yes.
But then you will never figure out my overarching plot.
