Hurrah! A successful casting! To celebrate, cast sink on the centre of donut isle.

That would be very helpfull indeed. How nice of you. Also, screw you, it is my landmark!

[helmacon]

Cast golem while I wait to be able to feel my legs again.

Green=0
Blue=30
((So.. Did I just create a natural spring or something?))

<=p4== Donut Isle, first rain, nothing.

==69=> central forest, hill hell, melting minions

Keep casting sow. I will keep doing this until I can cast the upper level green spells.

( 6) While your golem simply watches this time, with attentative beady black eyes, everything goes well, another one.

+15 green

CLASS SHIFT: GREEN MAGE

You will now be known as S34N1C the Green, and will gain green from any spell. Instead, you may choose to gain a spell's regular color when casting. This is auto-green, which is set to [ON], if you wish you can turn it off if you want to get a spell's regular color by default.

You can now use Epic green spells, which work a.. little differently and are effected by magnitude. You now will be given more leniency with how you form things as they may cover far more area. However these spells are far more picky... the more you wish to accomplish the more helper minions, color sacrifice, and or total color in that art you should have, lest things go bad...
There will also be tricks to use the environment to your advantage, here's some hints: see how the weather effects them and distance from water. (epic spell rolls will be hidden!)

Gently cast sink around the golems.

#15
( 2 3 4) With finess you lower the ground just a little. Unfortunately they sink just as far. Luckily the pits are not too deep. One seems to have been just to the side of the center, allowing an arm to come free. Eventually xe may be able to get free now. (Though you didn't command them to try.)

+15 blue

( 4) The island disapears into the water!

..and then reemerges.

(Note: if your intent was to make a pond, you would want to clarify that, lest full power is assumed.)

Posting OP as a snapshot of its current state...

Spoiler: MAP OF ZENLAND (click to show/hide)

WELCOME!

• You can take a turn:
- Once a day(calendar date)
- And no sooner than 12 hours.

These terms will be enforced by gameplay, head them vigorously

Spoiler: WELCOME (click to show/hide)

Welcome to ZL, Zenland! I am so happy to have you. To begin, you will be a Black Mage, able to cast minor spells in any art and immune to spell cast against you. Oh, and you are an immortal to boot. But as your class changes you will be suseptible to some traps and tricks, so watch out!

In this game you will learn 3 orders of magic: red, green, and blue. As you do your class may change automatically(that's right!).

TURN ORDER
Post: Put your entire post in this:
[glow=black,2,300][color=rgb(0,0,0)]Aloha![/color][/glow]

1. Command: You have your avatar(and any minions following 'em) do a specific action, such as movement or construction. They must all do the same thing! Once you get additional banners you can seperate groups and give each one a different command.

2. Magic: Next you may attempt to cast a spell. Update your font color: If spells you cast succeed, you will gain points in that color. Keep track on your next turn(max 255 each color)! You can spend saved up points to enhance a spell, the color contributed may alter the benefit.

YOU MAY TAKE A TURN ONCE PER DAY(date). ATLEAST 12 HOURS MUST ALSO PASS. I WILL GIVE RESULTS AFTER EACH PLAYERS TURN.*

CHOOSE ANYWHERE TO BEGIN!

Warning: I love to simplify overly complex things. So if any aspect of the map, units or anything gets a little out of hand.. well we might just need a flood or something to clear things up!
..but this may be more subtle(such as a tiebreaker factor).

*Note: if you make an invalid move in any way, do not worry there's no penalty. You do not need to wait but unfortunately a player can go ahead.

And finally: be careful what you wish for, literal translation applies

Spoiler: Action 1:COMMAND (click to show/hide)

Your first action each turn is to decide how you and anyone you lead will act.

Banner: Your avatar is the first banner holder. Your troops/workers will rally to 'em. You can gain a second or third banner as you claim territory. If you no longer meet the requirements and lose a banner, those units will join up with your nearest banner if able, or will disband.

Movement:  you can move anywhere on the map. Rivers walls or other obstacles you may stop. It is possible to lose units while moving, take note of the route you intend to take if not the most direct one.

Attacking: generally units of the same type fighting each other, attackers will have about double the casualties of defenders. Custom units and their attributes can skew results.

Morphing: you may take your clay golems and turn them into a new type of unit. Make note of its new strengths and weaknesses(one must justify the other). They can be turned back into clay golems but cannot be directly turned into a new class unless that is a special attribute. Clay golems themselves will have generally modest capability of most common tasks. Name it.

Construction: you can build bridges, roads, walls, buildings anything you have the resources for and including time and manpower to do.

Claiming: a banner of your units(can just be you) can claim a territory(an area of space). You have an additional banner while you control land if decent size. If all the lands have been claimed and your territory is the largest, you can cast an additional spell on your turn. Counterclaims can be made if your color- especially how it relates to the land or orbject, is low. Claims can be captured as well if undefended. Name each of your non-connected lands.

Spoiler: Action 2:MAGIC (click to show/hide)

Your chance for you, your avatar to cast a spell is next. Units in your banner will assist with the spell.

Minor: Simple starting spells for practice and utility.

Epic: Spells sensative to weather and local geography.

Grand: Unknown.

Color: Your points in one of the three branches of magic: red, green, and blue.

Sacrifice: Donate some of your color to magnify a spell; which color(s) donated may have an effect. All spells can be(unless otherwise stated) used for free.

Affinity: The more color you have of a spell, the more your grand designs can be cast, safely. And effectively. As intended.

Assistance: Magically inclined units will modify bad rolls(if same affinity as spell). Non magical units will try to be helpful, in other ways.

Magic will take this roll:

1 ★/↓ dangerous fail
2 ✩/↓ missfire to ≤ spell
3 fail
4 ✩/↓ negligable success
5 partial success
6 success
7 success+
8 ★/↑ success++
9 ✪/↑ +++ & extra color
10✩/↑ humorous overshot

✩Will only/★Wont happen to black or jester mages.
✪Will only happen to mage of that color or white.

If equal or more mages object than agree, you are banished instead. If ¡ or ¿ they lose 1 vote. If ¿ and you have ×10 or more total color, you may absorb all thiers instead of disabling their play.

¿ = longest inactive mage
¡ = unpunished for a turn they took too soon*

Try again to cast Lift on the southern edge of the East Hill.

#18
(10) The ground trembles then swirls around you so fast that in an instant you are in darkess.

You are now inside your- larger- hill. +15 red

Command the root golem to try to free itself. Also, cast sow around the island.

(assuming by around you mean... all about and upon the island in various places, not in-a-circle-around-the-island.)

BANNER 1: DIG UP THE ROOT GOLEM

Your root golem begins digging itself out with it's free arm, the clay golems just wiggle side to side. You get on your knees and scoup away dirt. The rain(and recent plunge) mean the ground is moist, and easier to move. Together you get him down to his waist... and then. Pop, pop, he pulls himself out!

#19
( 7) A very successful cast without any help. The island is now quite forested. Your banner is immersed in the trees' shade. +15 green

Cast Sprout.

√:1

Trees spring up a little bit around the area, creating the hint of a fledgling forest. +15 green

Your golem is recharged.

Cast golem.

( 4) Two clay golems walk to land. Then they melt. +15 red
