UNDER GROUND ECOSYSTEMS WTF I dont post for two days and this stuff happens isnt the underground the titan of earths deal I know he is not awake yet but seriousley thats not a right to just go tramping through his domain if nothing else lets get the primfants sentient get some worshipers up but under freaking ground I VOTE NO TO ANY UNDER GROUND SCREWINGS OR MESSINGS God only knows what the attitude of the titan of earth is going to be he could get extremely pissed at us for screwing with his element or he could be chill I dont know. We dont need to instant insult this guy.

My suggestion The primfant prime this is the first sentient version of the primfant. The first series of changes is to the biology of the primfant taking and lifting the thorax creating a sort of chest like area.moving the first set of legs onto the upper part of the thorax creating arms. move the second set of legs to the lower thorax to spread out the balance. Also providing three fingered graspers on the new arm appendages. Then upgrade the vision to be able to process colors ect. There we go
+1 as well as
Design and plant a Great Tree that'll rise up, and out of the sinkhole.
Explore the surrounding area, maybe 50-100 miles around.
Wait for the Titan of Earth to wake, before attempting to repair the earth of your valley.
+1 to this. Maybe we could share the space with our siblings? The branches for the ToA and the underground caverns for the ToE?
+1 to this, I feel that the Titan of Nature should be allied to the Titan of Earth, so maybe we should erect a earthen monolith for him too.
Create ecosystems to live in the caverns.
+1
Have the great tree's roots reinforce and support the earth - counter the curse with our nature powers, basically.
+1 also would it be possible to imbue Primfantes with the element nature allowing them to use it?

I think we should wait till they evolve naturally into sentience.

I can't find the quote but sentience has to be gifted by a god.

Alright guys, sorry for the delay. I've been doing some thinking and realized the system I was slowly creating for this game is quite simply too complicated. While trying to plan everything for all the other Titans and simulate the past 22 years for them I realized just how much work it was. The workload kinda brought me up short and I kept procrastinating.

SO!

What's going to happen is I'm going to scrap most of the system and make things more abstract. This should also help with the fact that the other Titans really had some problems doing their thing because of the way I had rolls working, they couldn't get anything done. The whole creature/plant creation mechanic with points for traits and then rolling for design vs the difficulty is gone now. The way I was handling skills is changed now as well.


What this means for you is basically nothing, you can keep suggesting things as you have been and all of the current plans still work, but for me the workload is now a lot easier. Also the chance to completely fail what you were doing is now much lower.

Also:
I think we should wait till they evolve naturally into sentience.

This is correct.

You decide to fill the sinkhole with a grand tree, larger then any other on Gaea. A tree as large as the one planned requires reinforcement with the power of Nature in order to hold it's own weight, and hence your frequent attention throughout it's growth.

For three years you focus on this new tree, and by the end of those three years it hasn't grown quite as much as you had hoped, though it is huge. At the base the trunk is now as wide as you are and it's upper branches rise a short height above the upper most branches of the trees outside the sinkhole, impressive with the tree's base starting so much lower than the surrounding trees. Easily the grandest tree on Gaea.

From your exploring you know that from most distant viewpoints the branches of your tree now block the view of the sinkhole. You have spent the breaks in your vigil over the new tree exploring the reach of your forest. Most of the valley is taken up by dense growths of huge trees, the first trees ever planted, while more moderate growths of forest surround the heartland of the First Forest.



During these trips you come across a new type of animal that you haven't seen before. It flies through the air on feathered wings like those possessed by the Titan of Air. By the shape of their heads, specifically their beaks, you guess that these creatures were created by the Titan of Air. There are a decent variety of different species and all of them produce beautiful birdsong. You guess you know what your sibling has been doing these last 22 years.

It is during one of these trips that you come across the Titan in question who flies over to you excitedly.

"Hello! It is nice to see you again! Guess what? The Titan of Earth is waking up! As soon as I sensed it I had to come and find you!" With this said your sibling does some excited air acrobatics and lets out a burst of birdsong. As the birds in your forest quickly fly over towards their creator and join in its song you let yourself feel slightly relieved that the Titan of Air didn't seek you out while you were in your den; it's embarrassing enough with just you knowing about your mistake, let alone a blabbermouth like your sibling!

You get your sibling's attention and it stops its excited acrobatics to continue, "The Titan of Earth won't wake for a couple months now but I realize that you are a bit slow so we have to leave soon!" Alright that is a bit insulting, not everyone can fly around in the air with wind powers! Still it has a valid point that you aren't anywhere near as fast as the Titan of Air.

Still a journey taking multiple months just to get where you are going and then the same amount of time to get back? That is a decent chunk of time that you could be spending on the First Forest! Then again you did promise, and if you can swallow your pride the Titan of Earth could easily fix the mistake you made if you could convince it.

========================================================================================================================================

Head off with the Titan of Air.

This, but ask questions:

What have you been getting up to since last we met?

How are the other Titans doing, especially the Fire Titan?

Have they developed their own ecosystems?

Any interesting creations from our fellow Titans?

Your creatures seem to like the Forest. Have any of my own creations been bothering you?

+1 but also ask some of the questions he failed to answer last time under the pretense of preparing for the ToE's questions as well as about Aether.

I say we try to instill paranoia in the air titan about the earth titan stating that they are opposites and that the earth titan probably will try to destroy him. But we can help him but we need to attack first. Hey Im all for peace but we can take advantage of this to consolidate our power
