Heat awoke in the core of the planet as it felt the surface warm under the actions of the other titans. As it shook from it's lethargy energy spilled out from it, warming the molten earth and itself and shaking the planet. From this action huge earthquakes arose, shattering the crust of the planet as cracks ran though the earth. The molten core of the planet burst outward, lava flowing across the lands from these new apertures. Finally, Heat was fully awake. Gathering some of the surrounding matter to itself, it fashioned a body which oozed out though the world and onto the surface. As it left the earth lava from both the previous awakening and the molten poles of the planet seeped back down into the vacated core to form a huge sea of molten rock.

Create the underground. A vast series of caves, cracks, and crevasses that run throughout the world, all over the world caves and cracks open up to this underground realm. (I'm not sure if this is a major geographical feature or is on a large enough scale to count as a cosmos altering action, so ether -50 or -100 points?)
Create the Molten Sea. With the awaking of the titan heat, the core of the planet was supercharged, greatly increasing the size of the molten core, it reaches all the way up the bottom of the underground, where they meet occasionally a cave is large enough to contain a true sea of molten materials on great obsidian shores. In certain places in the underground sluggish rivers of lava flow downwards from to the sea from the great pole volcanoes. (Once again not totally sure of the points required, idk if the sea is 50 or 100, and I'm not sure if the magma rivers need their own thing or count as part of the other two? So 50 to 200 points)

xoan sees the world. and soon his ideas take shape.

before the cloud there must be a second power. the energy of food will not be enough for the clouds greatest strength. he closes his eyes and a strong yet gentle pulse washes over the world and is contained by the shell around it. magic now permeates all matter and space within the shell around the world. ((rather than coming from certain points like In the last world it comes from everywhere around you AND from you.))

next he forms a ball in his hands. but on closer examination it is not a ball but a small swarm of small winged creatures. like little motes of color.  these are the mergen and when they swarm in large numbers they are the cloud (but that's rare) when a mergen latches on to something it will begin to travel deeper into its body retracting its wings.

when this happens the body may reject and expel it.
sometimes the war between body and mergen will result in the death of both
if neither transpires the mergen shall become symbiotic with the host, sinking into it and changing its body. claws, wings, thick shell, ect. during this time of change the mergen will draw of magic, when the changes are complete it will draw what little substance it needs to survive from the host (being a part of its body now it gets energy the same way any other part of your body does) when the merging is complete the mergen will remain with its host forever there lives now connected. should the host perish so to shall its inhabitant.

Kuthulknoes wanders through the cosmos aimlessly, until he sees The Worldsphere and the Planet contained within it. He speaks,

"Hmm, Interesting, not the design I would've went with, but Interesting nonetheless..."

The strange entity looks at it's beautiful patterns for a few minutes, munching on a few 'jelly beans', before coming to rapt attention. "Ooh, this shape gives me an idea, Hmm, I wonder... Is It Airtight?" The darkness around him forms into a cane which he grasps and taps on the side of The Worldsphere, Thunk, Thunk, He then grins inexplicably, "Seems like it!" Kuthulknoes warps inside of The Worldsphere and opens his suitcase, to anybody observing, the pure chaos inside of the suitcase would have shattered their Mortal minds, or gave a normal God a severe migraine, but, being a Titan Kuthulknoes is completely unaffected.

He reaches a hand into it, searching for something clearly of some importance, "Bah! Where is it? I know it's in here somewhere... No not that, Not that either, I thought I'd already eaten that sandwich, SCORE! OH, Wait, Here it is, right behind my half-empty Draught of Infinite Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster!" Kuthulknoes raises his hand triumphantly before closing the suitcase. He then brings his attention to the object he searched for. It appears to be a completely normal vial, like the kind you'd use in a lab, with a cork in it. The vial has a strange warning symbol on the side that would confuse anybody unfamiliar with Mayan Runes.

Kuthulknoes pops off the cork and a strange bluish gas begins to exit it, He inhales deeply before grinning from ear to ear, if that was possible for a slug. The gas billows out, forming a massive cloud nearly twice the size of the Planet, the gas then disperses across the interior of The Worldsphere, replacing the empty space within. The gas was initially thick and was colored a dark, vibrant blue, but after spreading across such a vast area it has thinned out considerably, becoming very light blue, even being almost white in some places. The star patterns of The Worldsphere are still completely visible but the heavens now appear to be light blue instead of being black as the void.
Kuthulknoes continues grinning before speaking again, "Aah, There's nothing quite like some Sealed Atmosphere in a can to liven up a place."

Kuthulknoes opens some Sealed Atmosphere in a can even though it was contained in a vial. The Gas inside the can is mostly Nitrogen and Hydrogen, but there are also large percentages of Carbon Dioxide and Methane. It resembles the Atmosphere of Neptune's Moon, Triton, and is extremely well suited for flight, if it is somewhat cold due to the lack of anything warming it. The Atmosphere should be breathable to Plants and suitable adjusted Animals able to withstand the cold.


Kuthulknoes surveys the vast space before speaking again, "This place is a little bit too empty for my tastes, But I've already tampered with the Cosmos enough for now." With that said, Kuthulknoes summons a lawn chair. He then reclines in it with his top two arms holding his head while the bottom two put 'Jelly Beans' into his mouth.

Kuthulknoes ends his Turn, satisfied with his contribution.

The Tower Of Life is thrust into the equator, a vast inverted golden spike.   It casts no shadow, and around it a vast dome of Earth-like atmosphere is sustained.  [-25]

Woollentrees appear amidst the bubble of atmosphere around the Tower of Life.  Whilst morphologically they share some resemblances with Earth-like trees, woollentrees have no need for light and thus grow fairly flat to the ground.  They are squat against the ice, leaching trace minerals from the permafrost through extensive root complexes and breaking down volatile chemicals for the energy necessary to survive, drawing oxygen through their black leaves from the atmosphere to power the reactions.  They possess internal systems capable of spreading the heat from their roots throughout their forms, and thick hairs grow across their trunks and branches to insulate against the cold and keep their heat within.  They produce fruits in order to spread, either dropping and rolling away or being eaten by Woolsects and spread in faeces. [-50]

Woolsects follow suit, preying on Woollentrees and each other.  Terrestrial and aerial varieties exist, up to half a metre in length, and they are reminiscent of Earth-like insects, save for the thick hairs surrounding their bodies to insulate against the cold.  [-50]

Taron and Taren surge up from the crust around the planet's poles.  Seizing upon the planet's meagre nuclear reserves, the pair of mountains knit the mantle's atomics together and start generating vast quantities of heat, escaping through massive steam vents and through great rivers of lava.  The blasted lands around each pole are stripped of ice, melting and steaming away to leave masses of barren rock, sandless deserts.  Rivers form where it is cold enough to do so and pool into a pair of vast, shallow seas separated by the equatorial ice.  Woollentrees and Woolsects split by the melting manage to survive in the wastelands, but the mountains are too hot for their life to survive.  A harsh and caustic atmosphere arises, full of methane and carbon dioxide.  Only in the embrace of the Tower of Life is the atmosphere still Earthlike.

Wyrmlings emerge in the poles, basking in the heat and taking advantage of the thermals to fly and hunt prey.

Heartfruit Trees, not dissimilar to the Woollentrees, grow about the poles.  By comparison their roots are small, only enough to gather needed nutrients, and their branches and black leaves are tall, broad and flat, to absorb as much heat and radiation from their surrounds to fuel their forms.  They grow small Heartfruit berries, tasting like cinnamon and raising the body temperature of the consumer.

Roasters are small herbivores used to the high temperatures of the poles, whose defensive mechanism is to breathe ignited flammable gas.  They are primarily eaten by Wyrmlings.

Fire Vines spread south from the poles, heating up their surrounds with their tendency to violently explode in colder climes, or if incautiously eaten.

Steamers are an aquatic cousin of the Wyrmlings, living in the seas and rivers of the wastelands and preying on other life or sifting chemicals from the soup of the sea.  They generate heat, causing steam, when they eat.

Steamers are also draconic creatures, smaller than Wyrmlings, that live in lakes/oceans/rivers, feeding on minerals/chemicals/nutrients and any lesser species that get too close to the water or live in it. They generate heat as a side effect of their consumption of other creatures, heat which often generates steam.

[Tired, will do more updates later.]

Oh no, I mean a lot of stuff happened since I last posted, there's a lot of world to update.  RL is fine, I'm literally just tired.
