((My thoughts on seeing that spoiler were pretty much totally "Oh hell, I made an atmosphere of pure chlorine, didn't I?"

But then I figured maybe that was just the way it looked, or maybe it wasn't done yet. Haha, right. Sure.

Also, chlorine world is go. Shoo.))


Ar'kahal coughed.

"Well, let's just say that's intentional."

Create Gribbers, large (maybe 3-4 inches long at birth, never truly stop growing, but man- or cattle-sized is the most common "adult" size), herbivorous, millipede-like creatures that nibble on Maka trees. Their coloration is usually a purple or blue so dark it's easily mistaken for black. They tend travel in groups. They are adapted to a chlorine-rich environment, obviously.

+1 to kj's suggestion. To clarify:
Make Maka trees process chlorine into oxygen as part of their respiratory process.

Call the Unnamed Fauna 1 "Thoquas".

Teach the Thoquas how to venture out from the mantle and search for mana crystals, then wrap around them, experiencing magical changes, then try to adapt to said changes.

Let me know which Spheres have been taken.
Sorry, got distracted from responding by 504s. Those spheres are fine. If someone drops, I'll find a replacement from those who have given applications. Until then, feel free join in with the suggestions for the extra action each turn.

Make the sea a bit more interesting with a dull-blue weed with minor energizing properties, that clumps near the shoreline.

Create three moons:
Spoiler: Aquataine (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Arean (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Ashel (click to show/hide)

((If this would count as three actions, just make Aquataine.)

(Moons do not fit in my plan. Especially Ashel. I should probably share my plan at some point. I've reviewed it and it can only lead to awesomeness.)

I WILL MAKE THE MOONS REGARDLESS OF SCREWING UP DERM'S PLAN.

I might be willing to change them, though. How do they not fit?

The whole 'full of magic' and 'existing' bit.

My plan involves every celestial body with sapient life on it to hold a 'caged one' in it's core.

Also magic isn't going to be inherently 'dark'. Necromancy, for example, doesn't automatically turn you into an evil bastard. The way others view you for using it, however, might.

(I'm not entirely certain what the "dark magic" is. I figured I could figure that out at my leisure. It just seems to fit with a dark-colored moon, whatever "dark" magic is. I suppose it depends on how magic works--if most magic is photogenic, "dark magic" could be antimagic.)

I suppose we could stick a Caged One in the moons.

Oh, no.

No no no that wouldn't be good at all. Only one caged one per solar system. Only one planet with life per solar system.

If you really want, I can PM you the details about that particular aspect.

You might also want to mention these grand plans to your fellow gods and/or minor gods in-character.

"Guys, stop fucking around with magic and celestial bodies. I got plans. Grand plans. in fact, it would really help if you blindly added a +1 to my actions."

"Fellows, I would ask of you that you leave the task of celestial bodies and all matters arcane to me. Populate the planet with life, or fix the atmosphere, or some other matter. I assure you, it shall be handled with great care. If you wish, you may aid me in my venture."
