[Fateful Ending]

(Holy hell, a lurker joined a game!

What drew you to this one, fateful ending?)

((I've been around a while, since 40d in fact, but its only recently that I've had enough time to commit to anything, as for this account, well i got into masterwork last year and those of your that have partaken know that the masterwork wiki isn't as comprehensive as the magmawiki. Basically i was playing AI war: Fleet Command, and was looking for some information, when i stumbled upon a dead thread about drones on this board. figured i'd check it out, glad i did!))

The 2.5 magic is a function of magic (50)/20, the standard for unfavored, magic capable, life.  You have unfortunately already used all of your magic for this round.  Additionally, it would take more magic than you currently possess to bridge the dimensional barrier.  Though you could do it with some support.

You are however capable of collapsing some of your tunnels into true darkness.

((Thanks Void, i was a little confused so i took the ball and ran with it, can we get an idea of how much support would be required, whether that'd be an ongoing cost, and basically how it would work? or are those thikngs we get to determine?))

Tornos will volunteer as much of his 125 Destruction as is required to seal off the remainder of the tunnels and use the rest to carve out new passages, ever closer to the planet's core.

"Imillor offers his thanks, and offers Tornos a hand of Friendship."

[Grek]

Tornos gladly accepts the friendship of Imillor, and further proposes an alliance, to put caves and cave-dwelling creatures on all the worlds of creation.

Life is self sustaining (largely) once it has been created. A malleable dimension has can be given permanent magic effects like illusions over caves, though once a plane has stabilized, large scale magic requires either a magical populace to do the magic for you, or a permanent penalty to your magic score.

Aere drifts over to Blitz's star. He infuses his magic energy into it, causing he star to give off low power magic energy with it's light energy.

I knew I was missing a question somewhere.  Yes you can alter a premade lifeform, it does require that you at least match half their soul level.

How does the fifteen point system work? Like if I wanted a really smart series and then altered them to also have magic would I have more points?

[MrVoid]

Strength will define damage, natural skills (regeneration and the like) as well as the maximum hit point pool of the creature.
Speed will determine the creatures capacity to move, number of attacks and the speed of task completion.
Intelligence will give critical hit chance, traps, and determine the rate that the species progresses technologically.
Magic allows them to tap into ambient magic to do otherwise impossible tasks.

What would 1 magic allow life forms to do? Same for 2.

[The Froggy Ninja]

I meant you start with fifteen points to give a race. After that can you alter them and gain more points?

[MrVoid]

Past noon Dimension 1 is stable Dimension 2 still is malleable

What would 1 magic allow life forms to do? Same for 2.

1 magic allows someone to actually interact with magic in a way that doesn't drive them insane.  All DnD races have the capacity to activate magical artifacts. 2 allows them to effectively interact with magical substances.

Alteration does not allow you to give the race more points.  15 is the max for all unfavored life.

What about favored life. Also, I get the gist but can you elaborate on what that is?

[BlitzDungeoneer]

Blitz uses 50 Creation to create a storm in space, about 1, 000  km from the second asteroid, before enchanting it with 20 magic to shoot out stones with special properties every 13 days, generally aimed at either asteroid.

You don't have a magic stat.  but you almost tricked me into giving you that.

What about favored life. Also, I get the gist but can you elaborate on what that is?

It is the least presence expensive method of interacting with the various planes of existence.  It is the removal of my biological limit of 15 points on their non-magic stats.  A favored being is a leader, a hero, a monster, a demon, a king, a god in human form, whatever the people of the world choose to see them as.  They have magic whether their race has it or not.  They are unique in their plane, as a god can only have one favored at a time.  How this is represented is up to you.  A favored is used to challenge a god's avatar, though they will rarely be able to kill an avatar alone.  They can also be used as the head of a war effort, though you put your population at great risk if he dies as people will collectively mourn for at least a turn.  Functionally, they are your hands in the world, you may give them a direct line to you at no presence cost and they do as you desire.

The storm forms and releases its initial burst.  They almost exclusively hit the asteroids.  ((what are the stones supposed to do, apart from be magical?))

Also, the first instances of bestial life have formed in dimension 1 in the form of the Bluerock mites.  Somehow, because they were created in an odd moment, it seems that they were made at no cost.  Good luck finding that moment again.

Additionally, the deep caves are made even darker and deeper by the actions of Tornos with his destruction powers.  However, all of the gods feel this expenditure of power.  Even as the energy is released, they can feel the edges of their creation begin to fray and tear apart.  Soon,  if he continues to use his powers in such a way, this plane of existence will fall apart.

[Playergamer]

As the gods finish up their actions, Zula empties his last remaining power into Bluerock, creating the Bluerock Mites.

((So is this whole "points are finite" thing permanent? If so how do we get them back?))
