A god condenses out of an enormous accretion of Narrativium....
"Sorry, am I late, or do I need to have someone invent clockwork first...?"
Dgetga looks backwards in time a bit.
"Oh come on, that has got to be...You can't invent inventing because inventing would be required before invention is a thing. Also that's MY domain."
==All One Action==
1-5 E:
'Invent' proper collaborative workshops, and create a town that may or may not resemble Mechanicsburg, right down to a massive Workshop in the center of town.
Said massive Workshop is the closest one would really get to a temple of Dgetga, save any little shrines in the corners, and that only because he is perpetually hanging around, collaborating. His signature octarine gear logo will end up on many blueprints and designs originally coming out of the place.
In addition, craft multitool Keys to the Workshop for legendary inventors, tinkerers, magicians, and artists, (for art is invention, is it not?), consisting of tools of their trade that also incorporate the Octarine Gear motif. These Keys will be found, along with messages to the new owners, in a conspicuous place where the new owner will find them. They also contain directions, but for this tick and/or the next, I shall expend Power to create portals directly to the Workshop for those who are so inclined.
Temples for all the gods will be found in the city, though they will be scattered throughout the city.
Needed resources are produced via automated systems.
==End Action==
==Action==
Expend Power, if required, to stop the...Pods, before they get out of hand.
"Seriously? Von Neumann machines? We do NOT need Von Neumann machines. We don't. Just make a normal race. Or focus on the existing races. And if there WAS an invisible robotic planet somewhere around here, you would probably know."
