Also, they'd be flushed away. Or eroded, or just used up.

In general, Jungle land gives a good harvest for the first 3 years, can be used as cattle ground for the next 7, and is worthless after that.

PN: Assuming this Jungle is similair to the Amazonian Rainforest, which it probably is.

IMO the most important thing is:   9th continent was made as lifeless by overgod on purpose... I suspect that means stuff as rainlessness, warm\cold torrents, bad soil and so on that was only countered by ....
a) Life Goddess (killed)
b) Artifact created by one goddess (destroyed)
c) positive Influence of magical beasts  created by  the goddess (extinct)

Also, the land that has neither mountains nor trees to block winds will be eroded in a second... Also, creatures that used to live in badlands are instinct, so if jungles will get destroyed, It will be hard to repopulate it with new creatures

And planet as a whole should get warmer, co2, decreased albedo and stuff like that ( On other hand we have a new jungle on formerly cold continent....)

I think it should be an ecological catastrophe

Also I like it storywise... Kill nature god and face consequences. If I GM'ed I would have started quite long planmetwide infertility for some period just because Elder Goddess of Life got killed

I wonder what killing me would do?
Or Avarian?
Or Pheonix dude?

Nothing at all, killing the god of life won't cause all things to die nor will killing the god of light cause things to be swallowed up in darkness. ther deathh however may influence things. While it may very well be that the Jungle Lands may be infertile and will turn into savannahs or worse, the land around the volacnoe of az-sho will stay untouched due to the fact that volcanic ash makes land more fertile...

Yup, it depends if you see the God as the representation of a force/ concept, or as it's embodiment. In this game, it appears to be the later, as harming a God doesn't harm the aspect he represents. (Not much).

((Also, that continental volcano might start suffering from droughts and erosion, but I'm pretty sure the dwarves can work their way around it. Also, vulcanic ash is only fertilizing up untill 20 cm. More, and you have trouble finding the plants.))

Destroying a rain forest will have global environmental effects but this also depends on the size of the forest. An real life example of a global relationship is the Sahara desert and the Amazon Rainforest. "Saharan dust has been proposed to be the main mineral source that fertilizes the Amazon basin, generating a dependence of the health and productivity of the rain forest on dust supply from the Sahara."^<1> So imagine the Sahara desert disappearing the Amazon will slowly die because of this relationship.

Also, can I apply for a younger God.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name:  Tænik

Sphere: Technology

Appearance: A crystal being who shape changes on what its followers believe it looks like.

Description: This God believes that its followers should be creative and wise in their endeavors but some times be careful on what they do. It also believes that in order to build a society it should be through technological innovations not through pity conflict and constant hatred of each other. Personality wise, it tends to have isolationist tendencies from others and be very protective of its followers.

I meant the effect our blood/corses would have.

[Ghazkull]

jaas, we already have a god of knowledge right now...so a god of technology might be too similiar...

[javierpwn]

Are you going to do the rolls for the Seaspawn revolt soon?
Also:  Those are some dead Ash/smoulderBorn

Really, It might add a interesting dynamic but if you disapprove then can I have lightning or electricity as a sphere?

[Xantalos]

Ah my children, so awesome they are.

[javierpwn]

Most of them are dead. Dying usually inst awesome(unless you're Mutare)

[Ukrainian Ranger]

Red Sisterhood....

R.I.P.....

Hopefully they'll reform and rise from ashes, but they'll never be the same

Hope Thaneos Inqusitors will come to finish the crusade and massacre them all

[Vgray]

Annnd, more Soultaken died. Fantastic.

Did my preaching and sending some Crowblessed teachers to the Children work?
