I did say 'one of' and 'mortal' right?

Icytea didn't.

Why are you people arguing over the longest-lived race? It's literally the first entry in the Bestiary. The Bestiary, by the way, is the first post on page 100. It's not exactly a chore to find.

And yet, Atropos is not even on there. Despite making several races...

[Andres]

What races are they? What Tick were they made in? Can I get links to show when they were created?

You missed the Hovori too. Do you really not remember? You tried blocking at least one from your cities. From my memory:

Death Bells (Week or two ago)
Those Desert things (Before that)
And Deathbells (yesterday)

[Andres]

I don't remember blocking any Hovori from my city. I'll get to work now.

Those where meant to be seperate statements, I kinda put them together 

What I meant: You forgot the Hovori.
Next statement: How could you forget the God of Death made several creations when you blocked them out of your city?

Races
Firstborn shadow people. They can form anything from dust. (Could eat dust)

Create 3000 twilight born, and a bell of twilight in each of their cities.

Spoiler: Twilight born (click to show/hide)

 - Merge with their shadow/turn into shadows
 - Shadow walking (Teleport through shadows)
 - Always anchored to the planet by a chord of darkness and dust(no legs)
 - Able to see souls
 - One hand turns things to dust, the other forms things from dust (But they can only create what has been destroyed already)
 - Immune to magic (Cannot become mages)

Spoiler: Bells of twilight (click to show/hide)

 - Create an aura of constant twilight
 - Protect the twilight born from outsiders and other gods
 - Each time it tolls, everyone who hears it (Who is not a twilight born) crumbles to dust, but their soul remains for as long as they would have lived. (If a couple (2-3) souls work together they can still interact with the regular world.)
 - Attracts crows/ravens

The desert dwellers. Die in rain, kill people with illusions. (Don't eat)

Create a race of desert dwelling people that look like me and lead people to their deaths with illusions of safety. (Control of mirages) They can also produce bursts of extreme heat in danger, but will die if rain falls on them.

Lunagee. Lives in space, hivemindish. Partially my angel. (Eats like grey goo)
Deathbells. Grows from corpses, plant skeleton things. (Photosynthesize)

Spoiler: Deathbells (click to show/hide)

When someone who has been "seeded" by the deathbells dies, they begin to grow a poisonous deathbell plant around their skull. This plant will spread its roots around and control all the nearby plants as well, and the plants grow around the body and form a plant being.
If there aren't any plants nearby, then the deathbell just dies.

Once the deathbell has control, it stands the body up and forms a cuccoon of plants while it consumes the flesh inside, leaving only a skeleton. When it is finished eating, the deathbell blooms and the cuccoon opens, letting a cloud of deathbell butterflies fly out of the skeleton. These butterflies get covered in the flower's pollen (Which also causes sleep) and travel the world to plant deathbell seeds on more people while they are sleeping from the pollen.

After the deathbell reproduces, it begins living like a regular creature would, simply one made of plants covering a skeleton.

Not just that, she also tried to veto the twilight born!

[Andres]

So the Twilight-Borns are spirits? Can you give me information on the individual dust people? Do Twilight-Borns, Desert Dwellers, and dust people reproduce? Are the individual dust people sapient?

I was vetoing the creation of the Bells of Twilight because I thought they were going to bio-nuke entire cities.

Actually, aren't the Gruen the longest-living race? They only get larger and hungrier as time goes on, after all.

Fun Gruen Fact: Gruen don't die from aging directly but can die from starving when older. Any Gruen can eat excessively but the youngest ones can actually survive purely from photosynthesis or small food portions limited to just dirt and rocks. Food requirements grow with the size of the Gruen which increases with age or excessive eating. So as Gruen grow due to age or eating, they actually go from little or no food requirement to massive food requirement. Effectively any Gruen that doesn't die in combat will probably eventually die from starving after getting too big which "normally" happens slowly due to age but is sped up drastically by excessive eating... which all Gruen have a natural tendency to do. So most Gruen are purposely speeding up their life cycle by eating more than they need to. This is a well known fact to Gruen but almost all are willing to risk the potential early death to become bigger and more powerful sooner. The idea is that big enough Gruen earn enough power and influence in society to procure enough food. This usually works until a point when the aging younger Gruen become powerful and numerous enough to overthrow and eat the older Gruen, effectively taking their positions.

It's probably very variable from one Gruen to the next, depending a lot on individual lifestyles as well as each Gruen's status in society. In ideal conditions with unlimited food, they should be effectively immortal but that's not a realistic situation.

Twilight-born are not spirits, you could punch one if you wanted to. Is that what you mean?
Individual dust people are not sapient, they are more like a vessel for The Lunagee to work through?

All my races reproduce. The Lunagee by converting people to part of it, and the other two normally.

Kind of. What form do they usually take? Humanoid? Quadruped? Other?
Ok.

Converting people into part of it? How does that work?

I have enough info to write in the Desert Dwellers but I still need to know about the Twilight-Borns and the dust people.

...The real question is why you need all this information on them. All the bestiary pages just seem to be a single line description -_-.
