[Kilojoule Proton]

Azem: You tell Alprozem of all the wonderful beings you and your fellow gods made hours from now, from the [talking jelly rolls] to the [singing rain clouds]. Time is weird like that.

(Artisanii: -0 Essence (offset by background Belief/Creativity))
Artisanii: The non-painter Muses rejoice at the announcement of their reunion.

[IcyTea31]

(Regarding your planned action, could you be more specific with the number of humanoids to create?)

((Make that number 600 000. It's more than an even share, but considering my plan for the humanoids leaves them unaligned, it shouldn't matter that much.))

[Detoxicated]

Let the Luminee create a library, and teach them the arts of reading and writing. Also tell them that they should write down everything they experience, so there is a big record of happenings. Move the crab to world 1 and watch it teach the ways of the Light.

Tick 09.5: Mounds of mortals?

Two sleeping gods have, at some point in the previous tick, been drained of most of their Essence! This is deeply disturbing to many of the gods, and it is quite clear that there was no Void interference in this matter. The gods or mortals responsible have yet to be found, for no one would ever want to confess to doing such a dangerous deed.

Serac has created island turtles and the Sorae, a race of seafaring avians, on World 1 (which is still unnamed) to be the reincarnation partner of the Ritan on World 2. Hundreds of waitlisted souls suddenly jump into the newly created Sorae. He also leads a group of Ritan to the surface, which will later prove to be a horrible mistake as a lost, desperate caravan kills two in an attempt to collect their scales. Serac later sends storms after the caravan and curses their scales to bring drought wherever they are. Azem also scatters their shinies over a large area. Kli, however, maintains his composure and is rewarded for his efforts after the Hummingbirds spontaneously create a School of Balance.

The Hummingbirds under Kli have lately been blessed with a higher birth rate. They have also been guided toward maintaining a strong oral tradition, which keeps them close to Kli's words even centuries later.

Varee has spawned several thousand nightmare-inducing ghosts on both worlds, causing a notable increase in the production of horror works.

Anath has produced an asteroid belt for each world outside their planets' orbits and manipulated a caravan into making contact with a settlement of Star Elves. This successfully leads to trading and cultural exchange, and both sides walk away richer in culture and wealth than before.

Azem's temple, despite delays, has been completed. Following complaints from its Alprozem, its guardian and custodian, Azem borrowed gold shinies from the region for Alprozem's hoard, probably in an attempt to pacify him after more of his failed attempts to locate another dragon. Azem left lumps of silver and notes where the golden shinies used to be, and in doing so, forced the nearby villagers to rely on a fiat system of sorts, thus inventing currency.

The Light has sent Yuvi*, the giant, multi-colored blinking crab, to the corporeal world and given a glowing armor set with his teachings inscribed to the Ritan.

The Muses have begun to celebrate the bittersweet last days of their presence in mortal territory.

A few gods have expanded the magical systems. Khaziraad has revealed an expensive terraforming spell to the golems, allowing them to shape the land as they see fit. The most immediate application they find for this is creating roads connecting important trade route stops. Serac has taught a song of luminescence to the Ritan, which they immediately use to light their villages.

The gods have finally decided to act on the increasingly stale proposal 03.00. It seems that they will split the number evenly among themselves and create to fill the gap using the fairly generous donations given over the last few ticks.

Administrative:
An active player is defined as a player who has posted within the thread within the last two (2) UTC days.

A bill must be supported by at least 50% of active players to pass if unopposed.

A bill must achieve 60% support in order to pass if opposed.

Players may flame the host if he has been inactive for at least two (2) UTC days.

Council resolutions will not be counted until at least a major tick has passed.

[Varee]

Just make them human damn it. Two arms, two legs, one head and fairly intelligent. This proposal have been going on way too long. Just give each of them some random facial feature and get on with it.....

[Ambidextrous]

Kli guides the Hummingbirds to expand the School of Balance; letting them use it to teach each other about his own teachings on Balance and Sacrifice, as well as other ideas. He allows them to open it to other races, so they may also get a taste of Balance.

Kli also checks on the Hummingbirds who had established contact with the Ritan.

[Detoxicated]

Teach the Luminees the arts of agriculture and give them the knowledge to create tools

[Stirk]

(Congrats, Kaladin, you just invented the world's first WMDs. )

(Isn't Tykki the worlds first WMD? Also, what happens if those scales go back to the ocean?)

Just make them human damn it. Two arms, two legs, one head and fairly intelligent. This proposal have been going on way too long. Just give each of them some random facial feature and get on with it.....

"This is a good week for you, God of Randomness. This is a fine proposal. We can simply make the creatures unaligned humans everyone should be happy with. They may worship who they wish, and show all of our spheres equally. After all, it would not be very appropriate to use council funds for our pet races that have already been created, this would benefit us all equally."

[Kilojoule Proton]

Kli: The Hummingbirds expand their School to other races and increase their focus on Sacrifice. Within the space of a century, the School produces a dozen or so philosophers everyone will remember for ages. As for the scout team intended to establish contact with the Ritan, the meeting is tense, and the Ritan ready their sharp rocks, despite the Hummingbirds' lack of visible weapons.

Luminee: The Luminee realize just how useful the plants in the surrounding grasslands are and begin deliberately growing them. Posting guards at night has the interesting effect of allowing the closest plants to grow faster from having more light.

The Luminee actually already know about tools and even weapons. They thank you for the knowledge and go back to what they were doing.

(If the scales go back to the ocean, I imagine the worst that would probably happen is that it would stop raining in a large circle around the scales. Maybe the water would get a bit saltier too.)

"Indeed, I agree with this. I have already donated, but do we need more?"

[Andres]

(Just gonna say it now, The Light, if you don't donate, ? ? ? will be upset with you.)

"This is a good week for you, God of Randomness. This is a fine proposal. We can simply make the creatures unaligned humans everyone should be happy with.

I suppose that I should support this now... catching up on things has taken a while. I will donate... hmm, 3 essence.

I also would like to create something. 300ish wood elves on each planet, in the forests. If there aren't forests, I'll make those as well.

[Vgray]

"This is getting boring."

Azem creates 100 humans as a template on world A.

[Andres]

(Oh gods yes. Just gotta wait a little longer now.)

[MedicInDisquise]

Artisanii decides to create another race on World B. The Mantra, descended from the Muses in Statue and Appearance but less powerful and hardy. They are only slightly more powerful then regular Muses. They spawn wherever shrines are, such as in Luminee Villages, Hummingbird Villages, Mountainwyrm Villages, etc. There are 300 of them divided between shrines.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

They are shorter then the Muses, and less brilliant, but are not any less sapient or sentient. If they meet a Muse in their travels, they are to follow whatever their order is. Otherwise, they work as Artists and Leaders, performing speeches and plays. Unlike the Muses, they do not specialize in a Art. They simply make Art with whatever they have.

To the Muses and Mantra, the Artisanii then say: "You may now roam the world as you please, and NOT be tied to a singular shrine. Reunite with your mortal and immortal friends. Worship and Spread my Word, and soon enough you shall receive a blessing from me." To the Painters, he says: "Sure to be soon, you will see a sudden propagation of a new species. Mentor these species to use your skills as a gift from Artisanii."

Artisanii then retreats to his Library after this powerful declaration.
