Just to be clear, the Starborn can totally eat the Minds, Caretakers and Wallowings, anything living, depending on different definitions of living.

[~Neri]

I expected that. They basically eat whatever the fuck is in front of them. Presumably they eat the ground also so they can grow their metal bits.

At some point Ol Death is gonna point out they need a predator to predate upon them cause otherwise they'll blot out the sun.

[SOLDIER First]

Entropy.
Alternatively, e a c h  o t h e r .

[~Neri]

Entropy doesn't really do much when they breed faster then they die.

They form swarms and feed off the sun.

I'm thinking firesnakes.

In the sun.

[SOLDIER First]

Immediate entropy?

[~Neri]

How would that not be a bad idea?

[SOLDIER First]

It could happen at a certain determined date in the cycle, where every Starborn at/over a certain age dissolves or something. Or they dissolve(?) at that age regardless?

[~Neri]

That's sorta a terrible thing. How would you like to get told by a god you're gonna die on x date and you can't do jack about it?

[Cheesecake]

That's sorta a terrible thing. How would you like to get told by a god you're gonna die on x date and you can't do jack about it?

That's basically life.

[SOLDIER First]

dont tell them :3c

[~Neri]

And made a magic system, as well as a possible ascendant depending on if the GM wants to make that Starborn one or not.

I may or may not have missed something in the system.

If I notice I missed something later I'll add it in the OOC. Also feel free to ask questions about it, will help find stuff I missed.

Spoiler: The Feral Artist (click to show/hide)

Name: The Feral Artist
Role: Ascendant
Appearance:
There is beauty in the horrid. The vines, the branches, the roots, they all seamlessly and peacefully wrap around the crystalline form, though some would say it twists and gnaws and crushes the being it once was. The light enters through it and exits as a ray of brilliant color, but deep inside the crystal is cracked and deformed, warped by change. It is colossal, yet puny compared to all that matters in this universe. The crystal rumbles rhythmically, pulsating with a plethora of colors. It never makes a sound, yet deep inside its feral instincts begs its crystal body to scream.
Personality:
Love and loathing to the Feral Artist are what roots and branches are to trees. One cannot exist without the other. One needsthe other. When Pif-Ria, the most beautiful and perfect being that the Artist first knew, created it from a Wallowing, a creature of change and feeling, and a Mind, a being of stasis and single-mindedness, an internal war ensued.

It is fueled by self-loathing and self-pity, viewing itself as the ugliest thing in Creation, unworthy of attention, misplaced and lost. But what Pif-Ria gave to it was joy, and for that it was eternally grateful. It felt joy when it created. It felt joy when others acknowledged its creations. But that joy was passing, and for that reason the Artist always creates. Always strives to reach new highs, masking its hideousness with beauty.
Description:
Its one goal is to make the most beautiful artwork in existence, its Masterpiece, and indirectly give itself true joy.

I tried to counter Pif-Ria's character but still link the Artist to her. Instead of pure joy, the Artist is more bittersweet and melancholy. Tell me if you want it to be changed, Wierdsound.

In.

And made a magic system, as well as a possible ascendant depending on if the GM wants to make that Starborn one or not.

I may or may not have missed something in the system.

If I notice I missed something later I'll add it in the OOC. Also feel free to ask questions about it, will help find stuff I missed.

Another Ascendant? Why not.

[~Neri]

Maybe you should have an ascendent slot tally? Currently it's 1/2 for example.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Wave Lynn
Role: Ascendant
Sphere: n/A

Appearance: Basic form (unmodified/hatchling): 6 legged black scaled lizard with teal crystals growing out of his back.
Later grows more crystals while old ones increase in size. Metallic colorization turns red, as primary diet early on is flesh. Crystals pale, slowly becoming white.
The whiter the crystals become, the more dynamic colors. Dynamic colors mean they change depending on mood. But it mostly occurs when intense (not angry... furious).
Swept back horns, no problem when he's poking head into holes, but it's a problem on the way out.

Personality: Youthfully curious, even when older, hotheaded, and just can't wait to set stuff on fire. Tends to equate pretty much everything to fire, like, seriously, even ice is fire... somehow.
Even runes, which are not fire related, are explained in fire related terms. He has a nasty habit of not distinguishing the fire he's talking about (metaphoric or literal).
His hotheadedness means that he rarely makes the crystals change colors, as he just gets rid of it immediately. Rather than letting it accumulate.
Though later on, he has been rather rational with his pyromania desires. Going for long term burnination rather than short term firestorms. Though there certainly is an appeal in the latter.

Description: Wave Lynn has always been different from his siblings. Not only has he crystals growing out of his body, he's also the smallest of them, and the weakest. But he also has a strange, fascination for fire. The way it danced when he watched a burning Wallowing. The way it moves, the pattern, trying to stay alive, eating at it's flesh. The flames are alive, or maybe, the flames are life.
There's a strange similarity there. Life begins, with a burst, and it ends slowly, unless put out. Very much like fire.
Wave believes there's a link between fire and life, but has also found other similarities. Fire is chaotic, yet predictable. Even water, the enemy of fire, follows this pattern.
But so is life, lifeforms will run if it senses danger, but you wont know every single detail of where they go, and what jumps it'll make. Just like fire, even calculated, it can always surprise you.

Wave has however been quick to satisfy or vent his emotions, whenever angry, he quickly vents it, when curious, he explores. This have led to his shading becoming... empty.
The shading became white, but if he gets intense emotions, then it changes color almost immediately. Only to revert back once he's dealt with it.

Edit: Ugh, Kevak kept pinging in my ear to rewrite it, so I've pretty much rewritten all of it.

[WillowLuman]

I'm thinking of making an ascendant.

Looks like I got ninja'd though. Still, I'll do the sheet after class.
