[Toaster]

Seed the region with Soul Energy, that it may seep into the ground and attract souls of those who die from around the realms.  I should be (soon) able to use this soul energy to empower my spells.

[IronyOwl]

Turn 4: Desire to Feed

Grant the plants, which shall henceforth be named the Nosferatu Plants, true sentience.

[5] The Nosferatu Plants come alive with malignant sentience, casting about for warm-blooded victims but finding none. They begin to plot and scheme amongst themselves, but none can think of a way to gain access to delicious prey.

Vanish the water, if that small enough to count as a minor action, create deer-like animals that feed on the desert shrubs.

[4] You manage to pile up some regions by dredging out others, resulting in slightly raised sandbars everywhere. They're still too moist for desert plants to do very well in, though.

Create goblins, under my command, have them domesticate the dire honey badgers.  Leave them to build a civilization, under my careful eye.

[5] You create vaguely-defined goblins, but they're very nice. You don't get around to instructing them to tame or build anything.

Try and move both of them lower into the pit.

[2] You push the orb free. It now bobs a bit in place.

[4] You also relocate your lab to the bottom of the pit, or more precisely to a hollowed-out dome at the bottom of the pit.

Create monstrous stilt-legged birds which feed on the flying traproots and hunt the stone things to use bits of them as gizzard stones.

[4] You indeed create monstrous stilt-legged birds. They tend to have trouble taking down stone things, but packs of them can usually chip off enough to serve as gizzard stones.

Of course, traproots aren't especially filling, so the birds tend to spend a lot of time foraging and aren't very numerous.

Seed the region with Soul Energy, that it may seep into the ground and attract souls of those who die from around the realms.  I should be (soon) able to use this soul energy to empower my spells.

[2] You find that this requires a fair amount of advanced planning, and so manage to come up with soil that sucks bones in slightly faster than normal.

[Harry Baldman]

Create a race of sentient ape people, the Curinam. Tell them to stay put for now.

[NRDL]

Nice?  What do you mean nice? 

Tell them to domesticate the dire honey badgers. 

[IronyOwl]

I mean they're very well-made, whatever they are. Arguably that could be the exact opposite of nice, but it's kind of hard to say, isn't it?

[scapheap]

create plants that do well in wet sands(beaches?)

[Spinal_Taper]

Tooma frowned at his mistake. Maybe souls did age. Didn't matter though, he moved to correct it.
Move the lab back up beside the pit, put the eldritch dark artifacts at the bottom of the pit.

[Wwolin]

Create a hard and durable metal and scatter this new substance throughout my bog.

[IronyOwl]

Turn 5: Malleable

Create a race of sentient ape people, the Curinam. Tell them to stay put for now.

[3] You create a race of intelligent chimps. They're fairly strong but small, and not very clever by humanoid standards.

They also have nothing to eat. The Nosferatu Plants are less unfortunate.

Nice?  What do you mean nice? 

Tell them to domesticate the dire honey badgers. 

[4] Your goblins successfully figure out how to domesticate dire honey badgers. Technology gained.

create plants that do well in wet sands(beaches?)

[3] You create sparse marsh grass, growing in stunted clusters here and there.

Tooma frowned at his mistake. Maybe souls did age. Didn't matter though, he moved to correct it.
Move the lab back up beside the pit, put the eldritch dark artifacts at the bottom of the pit.

[2] You raise your lab so that the glass dome fits snugly into the bottom of the pit.

You forget what eldritch dark artifacts you're talking about.

Create a hard and durable metal and scatter this new substance throughout my bog.

[1] You create silverflow, a metal that bends to the slightest touch, being almost liquid even at normal temperatures.

Toaster gets a free action.

[scapheap]

Create long legged deer-like that feed on the marsh grass.

[NRDL]

Create iron ore boulders throughout my land.  Have the goblins discover it.  Let them know that should they attempt to do anything frivolous or altruistic with it, there will be consequences. 

[Harry Baldman]

Mediate an understanding between the Nosferatu Plants and the Curinam - for the Nosferatu Plants to obtain blood from the apes consistently and without fail, they must give their berries to them in order for them to survive and multiply. The Curinam must give some of their blood to the Nosferatu Plants to get berries and not die horribly in the process.

See if they go for this idea.

[Spinal_Taper]

Oh, there's only one, the orb.

Lab out of the pit! Roll gods be merciful! Orb down the pit!

[Wwolin]

"Nearly liquid at room temperature, eh? I'll just have to make something cold then."

Create icy little men to live in my bog.

[Toaster]

Coulda sworn I had posted here...

1:  Further explore the concept of getting soul power into the ground.

2:  If sufficient understanding, seed the ground with the soul power.  Otherwise, research a Spell that allows me to tap ambient energy fields to increase my own power.
