In the beginning, there was Nothing but Void. But nature abhors a vacuum, so from Nothing came Everything. First were the First Gods, who laughed and danced drunkenly through the chaos, who felt the First Love and the First Hope, and the First Jealousy and the First Hate, and who Fought the First Battle and Died the First Death. Then there were the Second Gods, who felt the First Sadness, and the First Horror, and who made the First Pact, and saw the First Betrayal, and Fought the First War, and Died the Second Death. Then there were the Third Gods, Who made the First Peace. They lit the flame of the First Suns, and scattered the seeds of the First Worlds, and brought the First Water, and the First Life, from the ashes and the dust. At their command, the First People climbed from the dust, and History began.

So, this is a suggestion game. We are playing as a newly created race.

What are their physical characteristics? How long do they live, how do they reproduce(eggs, live birth, etc), how strong, fast, big, intelligent, etc. are they? What kind of a social structure do they have.

What technologies do they start with? Do they have any domesticated animals? How do they build their homes? How do they feed themselves? Do they practice any primitive forms of magic?

Where do they start? What kind of environment do they begin in? A forest, a glacier, something stranger?

Muk'tar
Snakelike creatures with wings and true hands
They live for 20-30 years and give live birth
they are physically weak,but strength relies in numbers and wit, they are relatively shorter than most other creatures
Their culture relies on ashaman/storyteller who has stories of the past, so the tribe does not relive mistakes of the past
They have been given the ability to make earthenware(ironically no feet), and stone carving
They build their homes from cliffsides,and feed themselv es using the local fauna
They possess the strength of the wind, and light(SUPAH RARE)
They live off of a mountainous region covering most of the planet, which has hundreds of valleys ;which contain massive lakes and forests(mountains)

[TopHat]

Sounds good to me.

[scapheap]

seem fine to me.

[javierpwn]

Thanks for good confirmation, I love irony
And thought it funny for a tribe of flyers to have burrowing centipedes and earthenware

[Angle]

You are the Muk'tar! Your bodies are long and sinuous, with wings and proper grasping hands. You make your homes in the cliffs, which you furnish with earthenware and carved stone. Your diet is omnivorous, consisting of both what prey you can catch and what forage you can find. Your tribe is led by a shaman, who collects the wisdom of the past so the tribe may be preserved. Some rare members are gifted with the power of wind or sometimes even light, though you have little training to give them. You have live babies, who mature after about five years and then live to be 20-30, assuming nothing kills them beforehand. Your people number in the fifties.

At this point, you can now suggest actions for the tribe to take, or you can be incarnated as one of them. You will start out as a newborn infant, and play until your character dies, one way or another. Each turn is a year. I'll try and update every day, or more often if people post frequently enough.

BABEH TIME!!
Or if by vote not babies
Then instruct tribe to carve statues of us!
And those with gifts be treated as those of greater power, as they will be messengers of the gods
While some other flying muktar must search the depths of the lake for noteworthy creatures/shiny rocks/clay

[GreatWyrmGold]

I vote that we be incarnated.

[jaass]

Incarnated, we will be able to influence this culture more directly.

[javierpwn]

Because we are incarnation of a God, do we live longer or get to be reincarnated at death??

[GreatWyrmGold]

Yes.
Probably the latter.

[Angle]

You are born, and the first year of your life passes quickly. How do you spend your early childhood? Do you socialize with your peers, or take to some more solitary pursuit? Do you pester the shaman for tales, or "help" your parents with the chores?

Meanwhile, your tribe prospers, and your numbers increase. Some of your artisans take to decorating the cliff with carvings of your gods. The shamans speak of the Blessed Ones, powerful spirits of your people that will watch over you in the times to come.

[jaass]

Ask about stories from the shaman, then take a solitary life to pursue knowledge about the world around you.

[javierpwn]

Yeah

[Angle]

Both of you?

Because we are incarnation of a God, do we live longer or get to be reincarnated at death??

You get to live interesting lives.
