If it wasn't obvious, these are joke suggestions.

But if you want to see a good example of how to do this properly, look up dark elves from elder scrolls.

[Chevaleresse]

I mean I could have called Keardai dwarves, but they're not quite dwarves, so I didn't. Certainly would have made more sense than calling a coffee-addicted hivemind divided into castes "humans."

[Stirk]

I don't really see the point of making something called a human if it's not going to be a human, other than a couple cheap laughs.

The *actual* reason is that the guy I was talking about (Andres) always makes humans. Its usually the first and only race he makes. Last game, Micelus made a similar-but-different type of Human just so Andres would at least have to change the name .

Well, dark elves aren't exactly elves either, eh?

Andres has made humans the most generically generic race in every iteration of YG. Usually we all messed with them at some point or another during the game.

As for KJP's rule set, perhaps influence isn't necessarily an important thing anymore, at least if we maintain the current level of influence gain (which I think is slightly less than the previous game) so maybe I'm just being annoying. Perhaps a general code of conduct then? Not many of the other 11 people who voted yes are offering suggestions, though it has been like 10 minutes since you announced you would heh.

Ninja Stirk strikes again.

Nephet's

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

3 feet tall Aquatic-ish creatures with a kind of hermit crab shell and the large head of a cat. Their main defenses are a single oversized claw and sharp pointy teeth. They are prized for their meat and quite tasty with butter. They are pack animals and possibly tame-able, they can be taught to obey extremely simple commands. They usually hang out by large bodies of salty water.

Adnaloy's

7 feet tall, They have the body of a horse/gazelle, sinewy torso and head of a lion. They are sentient and good with simple weapons such as spears and rough stone knives. Prefering to live in a plains area

Well, they're descended from the same stock as the other elves, and they bear large similarities to the DnD depiction of dark elves (sans being Always Chaotic Evil [except for the Telvanni, maybe]), but yeah. The Keardai aren't going to be mountainous (primarily) or dig underground, you'll find them pretty much in the places everyone else decided was too nasty to settle.

Spoiler: Fae (click to show/hide)

Short sapient humanoids with orange skin that tends to shimmer in the dark. They are obsessed with managing and keeping an orderly, peaceful society. Fae tend to group together is large orderly and clean cities normally ruled over by an elected mayor. They have inate magical healing powers capable of mending others bones and regrowing lost organs. This, combined with their creator being the goddess of health has lead to many becoming doctors, some even traveling to help other races. Their tendacy to be very vocal about all dangers and probelms they find with something, has made most other races see them as assholes and sticks-in-the-muds. They are very polite assholes most of the time.

[Happy Demon]

Hm... now that you got me thinking of generic fantasy races. I'm thinking of reusing my generic elves.
Unless you take both the "elf" and "alfr" names. But I'll probably find another name for them if you do.

I see no ill in Andres making generic humans. What I didn't like was him trying to put loyalty on his creations while still getting the benefit of worship.

Spoiler: The Celebrants of the Eternal Blossom (click to show/hide)

A motley crew, the Celebrants are drawn from all species and races and care not for petty differences. After all, they are dead. Or at least, hypothetically. Celebrants are those individuals others would call corpses; dead and oft times decaying organic assemblages that once lived and breathed. Of course, that is until they were offered a Second Chance. Instead of reincarnation, a distant afterlife, damnation or oblivion, Charon offered them a new life. Sewn and hammered into a new body, their worn flesh and brittle bones hardened into a new form. Celebrants were and are Charon's beloved disciples and his purpose for being. While other gods may craft esoteric eternities for their followers, Charon simply gives them a new lease on life, digs them out of their grave and hands them a hearty mug of ale. After all, life is for the living, even for those who already lived.

 Pick one

At no cost to any deity, create the following: Create a boring earth-like planet. Create Manus, the Burning Light, and Len, the Soothing Sight. Both are spirits that follow each other in orbit around the planet, providing light and a night/day cycle. Len'    - 1 (12.5%)
A system of two planets and a sun will be created at a cost of 4E to all. The first planet will be somewhat larger than Earth-sized but similar overall, and the second will be a supergas giant with an indeterminate, but finite number of moons. These moons    - 7 (87.5%)

Holy carp what did I even MISS?

Spoiler: Generickind (click to show/hide)

They have two arms, two legs, a height ranging between 5'0" and 6'5", and are generically smart.  They have lots of skin colors and hair colors.

[Rolepgeek]

I'm guessing I was a little late for tick 2, then?

[Lermfish]

The bumbaclot is going on?

[Happy Demon]

I wonder if anyone's going to one-up Axt's sword toss in destructiveness?
I mean, who's the true god of destruction here?
Then again, what could you possibly do to top it? Destroy the planet?

I wonder if he had done it on a moon, would the moon still exist?
