Another thing to consider is that we have to rely upon Krait to provide propulsion for our floating castles, which might not be a wise move, since our ability to expand would be by his whim.

[Remuthra]

However, generally I would say that we can intimately trust Krait. Besides being generally the most friendly god we have seen, he definately has great reason to stick by us.

questions I have. Just who are the individual gods of the tranquil empire, do they still exist as individual gods or have they... combined somehow? could seeds of discord be sown in the empire?

what if there's a god among them that only represents positive aspects of order? sure it might be alien and vaguely disgusting to us... but its not like we're on a crusade to remove all order from the world.

[Vgray]

We should go say hello to the Elves next.

And, as has been said before by me and others, Maher.

The hell you say?
And I'm sure we could get mages that can fashion the manarack into the propulsion/flotation core thingy

The difference is that the Empire is on a crusade to eliminate all Chaos, so negotiations are not really a possibility I would say.

The elves should love us! We're life!

Oh wait...they probably would hate us for fucking with nature. HURRAY ELF CORPSES!

I've bee suggesting making more creatures for two reasons. One; I find making stuff fun. Most of the reason I'm playing this game. Two; It's worked exceedingly well for us in the past. The thorn wall, the plant soldiers, all the stuff that let us survive Maher's army(I think, I could be wrong, it's almost 50 pages back after all), was stuff we created as creatures. I am counting Tiberius in that.

But, with the fortress starting, and our mole mining, we don't need anymore right now.

Sooo, let's start trying to trade silk to the people in the city. Also, we shouldn't trade raw firenectar. It would let other people do too much, and we won't get as much money with it. Instead, sell it as alcohol, a specialized healing solution, a specialized sweetener, or in explosive flasks. But not raw. Raw silk though, mainly because we don't know how to process it yet, I do not believe.

Normally, I would be against giving people boons...but give Lara a Life boon for healing, so she can teach the kiddies. Give a few others, the first of our followers, minor fire boons, and let's attempt to give someone a chaos boon.

Next, we should I suppose, have backup mechanical weaponry on the fortress, but that shit is heavy, and inaccurate. Even dwarven stuff. I'd rather have the equivalent of biological machine gun turrets. Also, there should be an open hole in the center, and braziers all over. And pools of water. That way, when we get a water god in our alliance(you know we will), everyone will be able to help in it's defense. Have nests for various existing and new creatures(meaning 'real' and ours), some set aside specifically for snakes. Ask Uristiel to make the fortress with a very disorganized theme. One that functions to confuse attackers and allow us to fight effectively, but still rather...chaotic. He's a War god, he should be able to do that.

There's a humie town on the way too we should check in on. I've been suggesting this for three turns now.

Also holy crap that's almost 10 pages of discussion largely about the damn mole and what element should be our primary.

Personally I like fire. Life is too subtle, but a forest of burning bugs sounds pretty cool. I also suggest all animals modified from now on are bugs. It's ok to have one or two breaking a theme, but too much is too much. Also, we're not the random sort of chaos, we're controlled chaos. We're revolution. Innovation. Democracy.

[scapheap]

Bugs and trees.

[Remuthra]

Not neccesarily democracy. I personally favor a system where status in life is based on usefulness to us. So if you want to have the nicest house, be the most awesome.

[Rolepgeek]

Why do we need a theme again?

[Remuthra]

Because it helps with establishing a personality, and there's no real reason not to. (there's no such thing as insecticide yet)

[Karnewarrior]

Why do we need a theme again?

Because everything needs a theme. It'll help us stand out, as well as giving our people a standard to rally around. I'm imagining a flag of red and black stripes with a stylized firejacket in front for our flag. We may even have a pretentious latin motto!

I believe our professed color is dark crimson. Think about all the stuff we have of that color.
