Become the rift in space and time, and use it as my physical form.
Attack the madness creatures by absorbing them into the rift, and freeing their energy for my use.
The
presence that repaired
Temporal Prison notices the
Rift. It seems to hold an inexplicable allure for the
presence, to the point where it
attempts to become it! It [10-2(becoming a rift in space and time penalty)-8] crosses the vast gulf instantly, no, it doesn't even move. It
is the
Rift. This
presence has gained
Terrible Hunger For ☼: +3 to actions related to consuming ☼ or things made from ☼, -3 to all other actions.
This
presence has gained
Riftborn: Is one with the Rift, what effects one effects bothThe
Riftborn presence reaches out, fueled by its newfound hunger and attempts to devour some
Horrifying Madness Creatures, [2+3=5] pulling in 5 kilo☼ of those dispersed throughout the universe. The
Horrifying Madness Creatures are drawn into the
Rift and instantly compressed into an infinitely small sphere. The
Rift now contains 5 kilo☼. These few morsels have, if anything only increased the
Riftborn's hunger.
-4 to all non-consuming actions.
Make sentient sphere creatures that are made of spheres, heat and water
Attempt to divert some energy from madness planet to add a slightly heated core to my sphere.
Create random Flora/fauna inside water sphere(using diverted power?)
The maker of the
Enormous Hollow Sphere manipulates the primal forces of the universe in an attempt to make a race of sentient sphere creatures. It draws [5+2(Sphere:Spheres +2)=7] 7 kilo☼ of
Sphere Energy from the
Enormous Hollow Sphere. The
Enormous Hollow Sphere [11+1(defense bonus)=12] is not weakened by this removal of energy. It seems that the energy removed represented some of the remaining structural weaknesses. The
Enormous Hollow Sphere now has +2 to defense rolls! The
presence then draws [6-2(spheres not that opposed)=4] 4 kilo☼ of
Heat from [4] the
Extremely Stable Sphere of Fire, reducing it to 86 kilo☼. It [8] remains stable, for now. Finally, it draws [8(no bonus/penalty, you made it even if it isn't particularly aligned)] 8 kilo☼ of water from the
Enormous Hollow Sphere, reducing the amount of water inside to 22 kilo☼. It forges these together into a [7+2-2(+2 for making a sphere race, -2 for mixed substances/difficulty)=7] sentient race of sphere creatures!
Race Created: Sentient Sphere Creatures!. The newly created creatures [5] try to flee the
Enormous Hollow Sphere in all directions [6] but can't because they're inside it.
The
presence then seeks to create a slightly heated core for the
Enormous Hollow Sphere, attempting to draw away part of the
Planet of Madness for the process. After all, its not like the
Being of Madness will miss it, or hold an irrational grudge. It [4-3(spheres relatively opposed=1)
pulls away 2 kilo☼ of
Horrifying Madness Creatures. The
Planet of Madness is reduced to 53 kilo☼ of
Horrifying Madness Creatures. It [9-3=6] tries to transform them into
Heat, but is only partially successful. The 2 kilo☼ of
Horrifying Madness Creatures in the core of the
Enormous Hollow Sphere have gained
Sphere:Heat. The innermost 5% of the remaining frozen water has begun to melt.
Finally, it tries to transform some of the
Horrifying Madness Creatures into random flora and Fauna inside the small area of melted water. [11+1(action is intune with Sphere:Madness)=12] The 2 kilo☼ of
Sphere:Heat Horrifying Madness Creatures are transformed into 1 kilo☼ of
Non-Repeating Chain Fractal Madness Fire Spheres and 1 kilo☼ of
Asymmetrical Half Sphere Fire Madness Half Spheres.
Race Created: Non-Repeating Chain Fractal Madness Fire Spheres,
Race Created: Asymmetrical Half Sphere Fire Madness Half Spheres.
A presence watched, its mind... fluid, changing with the situation when it needed to but yet coherent, not changing randomly. It reached out, finding that there was not enough of something it liked very much in this universe. It took all of the energy it could, and turned it into a liquid form of energy-infused matter.
One of the last
presences to act reaches out to the last portions of
Diffuse Raw Power, drawing [8-5=3] 30 kilo☼ and transforming it into a liquid form of energy-infused matter.
Substance created: Power Infused Liquid. This
presence has gained
Sphere: Liquids: +1 to actions involving liquids. 40 kilo☼ remains.
SEEING BEINGS OF 'ORDER' GROW RAMPANTLY ABUNDANT, THE BEING OF MADNESS CREATES THE CONCEPT OF CHAOS AND EMBODIES IT. THEN INFUSES THIS CONCEPT INTO THE TIME PRISON, DESTROYING A PORTION OF THE MADNESS CREATURES TO USE THEIR ENERGY FOR THIS ACT. WITH CHAOS TAINTING THE TIME PRISON, THE STRUCTURE OF IT IS DISTORTED. USING THIS TO ITS ADVANTAGE, THE BEING OF CHAOTIC MADNESS AND VIOLENCE SHAPES THE !!DISTORTED!!TIME PRISON INTO A PHYSICAL BODY TO CONTAIN ITS CHAOTIC ESSENCE AND ALLOW IT TO BE FREE TO INTERACT WITH THE OUTSIDE UNIVERSE.
ONCE FREE, CREATE A MADNESS GALAXY. CORRUPTTED STARS THAT ARE NOT BOUND BY TIME, PLANETS WITH IMPOSSIBLE ORBITS, MOONS THAT REGULARLY CRASH BACK INTO ITS PLANET AND REFORM.
Seeing the beings of
Order grow rampantly abundant attempts to create the concept of
Chaos and embody it. It draws [11-5=6] all of the remaining 40 kilo☼ in the universe and shapes it into the concept of
Chaos!
Concept Created: Chaos. This
presence has gained
Sphere:Chaos: +2 to chaotic actions, -2 to orderly actions. It then hurls the concept of
Chaos at the
Temporal Prison. The [5+2=7] concept of
Chaos is trapped half in the prison and half in the universe. With this accomplished the
Being of Chaotic Madness and Violence attempts to distort the
Temporal Prison into a monstrous avatar! It [10+1+2+1-4(using up some madness creatures, Sphere:Chaos, concept:Chaos partially penetrated, spheres opposed)=10] succeeds, creating a terrible body for itself out of the
Temporal Prison, the
Horrifying Madness Creatures on the inside and outside, their cities and the concept of Chaos.
Avatar Created: Chaotic Madness the Violence of Chaos. In form, it is truly terrible to behold. The
Temporal Prison forms a sort of insane, dimensional maze shaped shell with the 14 kilo☼ of
Horrifying Madness Creatures acting as a pseudo-nerve network from the
Being of Chaotic Madness and Violence in the center of the
Temporal Prison (which is still technically trapped there) to the outside, where the 10 kilo☼ of
Horrifying Madness Creatures and the 6 kilo☼ of their cities swirl constantly into shapes that have stained my soul with cosmic sins by merely imagining them.
The
Being of Chaotic Madness and Violence, embodied in its new form, tries to create a galaxy of
Madness, but no free ☼ remains. It tries to draw in power at random [6-6(drawing power at random)=0] but fails.
Again, make a planet in the star cluster and populate it with simple dragons. Unless that's what the Cluster Dwellers are.
Create massive dragon with two heads to be my avatar. Drain energy from Violence to do so.
Assert my creation of the dragons. If successful, choose notable dragons and empower them with power, taken from the Grinch Banana (say, a kilo or two?) to make them Blessed Drakes, a sorta-new race.
Make a large tetrahedron to act as a base of action for me, and as a meeting place for the creatures. Also to claim a Platonic solid before they're all gone. Add a nice, heated layer to assert some control over Heat.
Also reinforce Space and Time from the Planet of Madness.
Accept Inithis's alliance.
Finally, offer the Cluster Dwellers, say, 4 kilo of energy if they agree to serve me and not destroy more stars or attack my creations.
The
Being of Time&Space attempts to create a planet in the
Cluster of Burning Spheres. Seeing that the free ☼ is gone, it transforms [12] 12 kilo☼ of
Giant Burning Spheres into simple dragons and a planet within the
Cluster of Burning Spheres for them to live on. The
Cluster of Burning Spheres has been reduced to 51 1 kilo☼
Giant Burning Spheres.
Celestial Body Created:Planet of the Dragons,
Race Created: Simple Dragons.
The
Being of Time&Space then seeks to create an avatar for itself in the form of a massive dragon with two heads, attempting to draw energy from violence to do so. It [6-4(sphere's quite opposed)=2] rips 5 kilo☼ away form the concept of
Violence, [6] weakening it further. -2 to all
Violent actions.
Avatar Created: The Violence of Time & Space the Two Headed Dragon: +2 to violent actions. This
presence has gained
Effected by Sphere:Violence: -1 to resist actions involving violence.
It then attempts to asset its creation of the dragons [2], going among them and declaring that it was the entity that made them. Unfortunately, the dragons do not believe that the
Being of Time&Space is their creator, asserting that such an entity would disdain their attention, being obviously infinitely superior to them. This visitation spurs much religious debate in the dragon proto-civilization. After [5] relatively few maimings and murders, they decide that the
Planet of the Dragons must have been their maker, as it is utterly impassive to attempts to communicate. They also decide that since the
Planet of the Dragons is the Great Egg from which they were spawned is round and the eggs of dragons are not that this must indicate that they are creatures cast in an imperfect form for some transgression.
Dragon Racial Concept Created: Worship of the Great Egg,
Dragon Racial Concept Created: Racial Gilt(dragons).
Appalled by this dismal failure, the
Being of Time&Space [11] takes 11 of the 51 remaining
Giant Burning Spheres and transforms them into a tetrahedron.
Celestial Body Created: Tetrahedron. Seeing the reduction of the the
Cluster of Burning Spheres by both its acts of creation and the strange new creatures living there, it attempts to offer them an arrangement [6] but the creatures do not seem to understand any of the concepts involved.
Lastly, it attempts to strengthen the structure of
Time and
Space from the planet of madness. It [4+1-1(sphere, location)=4] fails and the structure remains unchanged.
((Sorry to not get all the actions in there, but as with a few other people, there were just to many. Hope I picked reasonable courses of action viz the lack of free energy/how to prioritize actions.))
>Create avatar in the form of an ethereal dragon. (you missed this last turn)
>Infuse pocket universe with the concepts of knowledge, advancement, and learning.
>Create more systems in the pocket universe.
>Construct a grand palace within the first system that won't be devoured by the suns. (floating in space, not on a planet)
>Populate planets within the pocket universe with highly-intelligent, knowledge-seeking, reasoning life
+1 to any action in the order sphere.
+1 to actions in pocket universe this turn.
The maker of the
Pocket Universe tries to form an avatar in the form of an ethereal dragon, but all of the free ☼ is gone. [12+1=13] Undeterred, it creates an avatar out of nothingness!
Avatar Created: Ethereal Dragon. It then goes on to create the concepts of Knowledge, Advancement and Learning, but lack the power to infuse them.
Powerless Concept Created: Knowledge, Advancement and Learning. Lacking the ☼ to create more, it dreams of making more systems [9+1=10], a grand palace [6+1=7] and [11+1=12] highly intelligent, knowledge-seeking, reasoning life. +1 to next attempt to make more systems, +2 to next attempt to make highly intelligent, knowledge-seeking, reasoning life.
Create fruit trees on the cube of Blue. Have them spawn sentient little fruitlings.
Continue with previous action. If successful, form a mobile fruitling tree avatar from some of their substance.
If unsuccessful, create a mobile fruitling tree-looking avatar from Blue instead.
The Maker of the
Blue Cube attempts to create fruit trees that spawn sentient little fruitlings. It [8] draws 8 of the 50 kilo☼ of blue and creates a great forest across the
Blue Cube. [10] Many of the trees start to spawn intelligent fruit.
Race Created: Intelligent Fruitlings. It then shapes [8] half of them into a fruitling tree avatar! 4 kilo☼
Avatar created: Mobile Fruitling Tree.
"I must leave my mark on this world, lest I forget what I am in this eternal swirl of energy.
So....I declare myself.
I am Gaius. Maker of the Law, Order, and Peace, and Chaos shall not conquer while I stand here to ward it from all those who desire it!"
Manifest as Gaius, Maker of Law, Order and Peace, (An entity.) in the form of a golden lion with a horn.
Afterwards, forge the power of order and law into a sphere to create a planet to base myself on.
The
Being of Law, Order, and Peace decides to manifest itself as
Gaius, Maker of the Law, Order, and Peace. It takes the form of a Golden Lion with a Horn, drawing [2+2=4] 4 kilo☼ from
Law,
Order and
Peace to manifest it. 12 kilo☼
Avatar Created: Gaius Law, the Golden Order Lion Of Peace. Newly embodied, it forms [6+2=8] 8 kilo☼ of
Law and
Order into a 16 kilo☼ into a sphere to act as a base.
Celestial Object Created: Planet of Order and Law.
Still trying to make my avatar of fire that shape like a phoenix.
Draw power from madness(we don't need 109 of the stuff) to create my bird avatar of fire.
^PREVENT THAT. THEN CORRUPT THE PRESENCE WHO TRIED TO WHERE THE MADNESS IN THEM DAMAGES ALL AVATARS MADE BY THEM.
The
Being of Fire draws [8+1=9] the remaining 86 kilo☼ of
Heat from the
Extremely Stable Sphere of Fire to form an avatar. 86 kilo☼
Avatar Created: Phoenix the Rebirth of Fire. It then tries to draw more power from
Madness [7-3(spheres relatively opposed)=4 vs 8+2(sphere)=fail] but is blocked by the
Being of Chaotic Madness and Violence. The
Being of Fire [7] just manages to avoid being tainted, but feels slightly weakened. -1 to next Sphere tainting defense roll.
Attempt to bond myself with space and time.
Create a form for myself, the same as last time (an infinite spiral of creases in the universe)
Use my powers over Time, Space, and Borders to perfectly section the universe in two, and put all things but myself affiliated with the spheres of violence, madness, etc, on one side, and all those affiliated with Law, Order, Peace, etc, on the other side. Retroactively do so if necessary.
Cleanse myself of Violence.
Place the Grinch Banana at the border, with orders to annihilate all those attempting to cross or tamper with the border but for me.
The
Being of Borders and Edges attempts to bond itself with
Time and
Space. It [2] fails utterly, instead becoming highly opposed to them! This
presence has gained
Opposed to Sphere:Time: -1 to action involving Time,
Opposed to Sphere:Space: -1 to action involving Space. It then tries to create a form for itself [7-3(sphere's not that opposed, presence opposed to space)=4] but fails to do more than warp the fabric of
Space and
Time. The fabric of
Space and
Time [2+3=5] is damaged, [5] breaking into [5] five pieces! The Universe has been divided!
The
Being of Borders and Edges attempts to [3] transfer all Order aligned creations to one of the
Universe Shards and all the
Chaos aligned to another, but finds it beyond its power. Instead [10+1(sphere)=11] uses it's power over
Edges&Borders to twist the
Unbreakable Universal Barrier into a new form. The barrier twists and writhes, encircling and dividing all
Order and
Chaos from their antithetical forces. Those creations as yet unaligned with either concept are left in strange, out of the way pockets of space and time.
Universal Structure Created: Complex Five Dimensional Barrier. This
presence has gained
Sphere Destruction: +2 to actions that involve Destruction (the neutral unmaking of things). This
presence has gained
Sphere Borders and Edges: +2 to actions that involve Borders and Edges.
It then attempts to cleanse itself of
Violence [6-6(irony of recent actions penalty)=0] but manages nothing. Finally it tries to compel
Grinch Banana the Incarnation of Violence to guard the newly created
Complex Five Dimensional Barrier [6] but the fell beast is disinterested and [7] just floats there, trying to come to terms with what these changes will mean for
Violence.
THUS ENDED THE AGE OF CREATION! ((First of all, with the 5,5,5 that split the universe into 5 pieces, I rolled 1&4, 2&3, 1&4, in case anyone was interested. I tried to be reasonable about how to proceed in light of Xantalos accidentally not gaining power over time and space and then breaking time and space into five pieces. Sorry again to those people who didn't get all their actions through, but most of it was when someone had 5 or more actions that I left out later ones, like Jbg97's madness scream. Spoilers, more information about the state of the universe after recent events and creature/race turns some time tomorrow. Also, damn, that took about 5 hours. Coincidence?))
