((also, your art really is awesome roseheart. Good pics. Much props.))

[RoseHeart]

*bows humbly*

[OceanSoul]

So I am probably going to have a commune phase, and action resolution phase. Not sure how long either will be but I promise no sooner than 12 hours to give everyone a chance.

(Ocean do you really want to wave him down? Counts as a commune action instead of doing sink.)

I'd only meant it as a brief "Hi". If I can't also spell, I'll just use Sink as intended

[RoseHeart]

Anything like that can have a result that prevents another action....

....especially since that isn't TopHat.

[OceanSoul]

Honestly, I prefer the term "FlopHat"

[RoseHeart]

..And you changed your avatar to a flat line. Makes me worried..
Edit: ..and it changed back?

Sometimes I need to "take care of business." I'm usually right back.

[RoseHeart]

Whoops S34 can ignore Commune 1. Just refer to the standard update. (fixd C1 anyway)

Red
~

• GOLEM •
An earthy helper. Must be near a red, green, or blue focal point, such as hills, trees, or a lake.
√ = 2 to 6 create extra golems
√ = 7+ create a titan that requires its' own banner

• BLAZE •
Heat rains from the heavens to lessen moisture in the air and induce hotter weather. Optionally igniting very dry flamable objects in a spot when used by a Red Mage. You must pay atleast the current magnitude of an element to increase it. ex. 2√ to increase √2→3 heat. And one lower to decrease cold, rain, and clouds.
√ = weather changing potential, √ = effective range and potency

• LIFT •
Cause the ground to rise up at a spot.
√ = terraforming potential

Green
~

• SOW •
Grow trees from the soil. Ehanced near water or wet weather, or the base of hills and mountains, or other trees. Optionally snare units or mages when used by a Green Mage, with longer duration if within their land claim.
√ = effective range and yield, √ = duration

• BALANCE •
Cause the weather to become more neutral. Optionally, cause the ground to level out at a spot removing small hills and ponds, aswell as lessening other features. If the ground is mostly raised or lowered in a area, can make that spot flatter at that altitude.
√ = weather changing potential, √ = terraforming potential

• BLESSING •
Choose the beneficiary(ies) such as a mage, unit, or even a place or object. Bless benefitial meta effects upon them. Protection from harm and promoting a unit to Champion to lead a banner(must have extra) are examples, though so is creativity on the part of the mage. Enhanced by peaceful surroundings and tensions in Zenland. Can remove persistent effects of a curse.
√ = effective range and potency

Blue

~
• TEMPEST •
Condense clouds and build up wind- in a chosen direction if desired; optionally strike an exposed wet or conductive object with lightning. A lower √ of rain than clouds will continue to pour indefinately, otherwise it will gradually deplete. You must pay atleast the current magnitude of an element to increase it. ex. 2√ to increase √2→3 cold. And one lower to decrease present heat.
√ = weather changing potential, √ = effective range and potency

• SUMMON •
Choose a unit to duplicate, other than a basic golem. Potentially more if unit is standing in water. Prevent ovetshot roll if in a forest(denser needed for higher √ cast). Prevent dangerous and mischievious rolls on a hill or mountain(taller needed for higher √ cast)
√ = √ of subject versus # of copies, √ effective range(of source and or projection)

• SINK •
Cause the ground to dip down at a spot. Can be used also to create rivers.
√ = terraforming potential

Black
(do not give color)

• CLAIM •
Designate an area as yours to enhance defensive rolls of at-home units. Snaps to geography like rivers and forestlines. Move to an edge and cast again to expand.
√ = effective range and potency

• LANDMARK •
If you have one: Charge your landmark, allowing safer casting when near.
If you do not have one: Designate a destincly visible point on the map by you.
√ = more charges

• CURSE •
Choose the victim(s) such as a mage, unit, or even a place or object. Descend harmful meta effects upon them. Lowering their rolls or initiative or removing gained color are examples, though so is creativity on the part of the mage. Enhanced by wet and windy weather. Can't Target a black mage themself, their units can be targeted. Can remove persistent effects of a blessing.
√ = effective range and potency

• DARK- •
Combine with a non-black/class spell, do not gain color if you succeed. Any success will be treated as the best result you qualify for. Failure will result in -15 in each color(if able). Roll cannot be increased. Lost color will manafest.

Grey
(Can be used between turns with no initiative penalty, and do not give color)

• COMMAND • (can give commands to all banners within a turn, can be used with other grey spells)
Issue a one time order or assign a task to a whole banner, anywhere in ZL. You represent Banner 1. You gain another banner by claiming land. You can get another by having the largest land claim. If you don't meet the requirements of a extra Banner any longer, you keep it until you lose(or remove) all units from it. A champion unit is required to lead a banner, promote using BLESSING demoting another champion if you have more than banners.

• COMMUNE •
Say something or otherwise interact with an NPC and wait for a response. Often happens in inbetween updates.

• TRAVERSE •
Move to a new location. Stops at an obstacle or unexpected event.

• GLITCH • (You may still do another spell)
Upon reporting a "technical error" in my update or game material, such as incorrectly attributed stats or incorrect math, you may get a bonus relavent to the sevarity of the find, more so if caught early.

• REVEAL • (You may still do another spell)
you can only have your avatar edited while it's raining or while near a very still body of water. Some NPC's will not recognize you. If a large change.

• SHELL •
Turn yourself and your nearby units into impenetrable statues which negate magic nearby. You are stuck this way for 3 turns. This will automatically happen if you are inactive for 3 turns(but you can break right out if from afk). Statues that are stuck are black brass, ones that are ready to break are marble. Magic deters "carrying them away".

White
~

• BRIGHT- •
Sacrifice an amount of color of any combination of types to enhance a non-black/class spell or alter it's effect based on the color(s) chosen and intent of the mage. Failure outcomes removed. Roll cannot be otherwise increased. Color spent on this cast will regenerate by 15 each turn when used by a White Mage.

• COMBO- •
Quote a mage's post. Below the quote take your turn. Add this to a spell otherwise repeating their spell's name and you will help them cast it, can be used to cast spells at higher magnitudes than possible alone, based on total combined color. Won't accomplish more than the mage intended, if a limit was implied or is later clarified by them.

Class
(do not give color)

• TELIPORT •
All mages can teliport to their landmark. A black mage can teliport to another black mage with permission. A white mage can teliport with a nearby teliporting black mage with permission. A jester mage can teliport with any nearby teliporting mage without need for permission.

• IMMUNITY • (automatic)
Black mages are immune to harmful spells, and as are grey mages if they didn't cast a spell on their last turn. White mages are also immune f given permission to accompany(follow) a black mage.

• -# (AMPLIFY) •
All mages may cast black spells up to thier current magnitude. Red, green, and blue mages can cast their color at two above thier magnitude. Grey mages may cast all colors one above thier magnitude. Jester mages may cast their top two colors one above their magnitude. White mages may cast red, green, and blue spells two above theirs. If you do not state in some way you will amplify a spell, I will assume it is magnitude 1(√1). Amplifying a spell lowers your initiative, your next turn may be pushed back.

• SHIFT • (automatic)
As you gain color your class shifts:
Red, green, blue mage: 60 in the color and 45 more than any other.
Grey: 45 in each color, each 30 or less apart.
White: 195 in each color.
Jester: 45 in two colors, 45 more than third, each 30 or less apart.

• COLORIZE (AUTO COLOR) • (automatic)
Most classes have the ability to convert color into a type that matches their class requirements allowing them to stay in it no matter what spells they choose to use. It defaults to ON. Announce you will turn it OFF when making your move to be able to gain color normally.
Red, green, blue mage = Auto Red, Green, or Blue
Grey = Auto Grey: color becomes current lowest.
Jester = Auto Duo: color becomes current loowest of top two.

• JUGGLE • (jester only, automatic)
A jester mage cannot get a backfire or missfire if they use the other of their top two colors than they did last time. A regular falure will reset this. (Counts as a roll increase)

Golem
~

• HARMONIZE • (automatic)
When using a spell with a golem of the same affinity in your avatar's banner, a failing role will be raised by one for each(or lower an overshot). The only way to stop this is to the assign them to a different banner when you cast a spell. After doing so they will be "drained" and must be among world symbols of thier element for a time to recharge(two consecutive turns usually).

• MORPH • (initiated)
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.

• ELUDE • (implied by PM)
Can PM a command for Root Golems that start in and never leave dense forest. Hints may be given if this requirement is not met.

• TOUGH • (passive)
Stone Golems may rise up from supposed death. Works even better in numbers.

Gwolfski

Gwolfski is a dwarven mage. He wears a rather large wizard hat and a robe that is too long for him. He has green eyes, bushy eyebrows, a bulbous nose and a long ginger beard

Commemorate Image


helmacon

Helmacon is a mage most peculiar. He wears wide robes of black and white motley with the hood pulled up. Underneath this hood his is a short and neatly trimmed salt and pepper beard, leading up to a face that is heavily scarred on the left side. His left eye is a dark brown, almost to black, but his right eye is ever shifting. The color is always 'his current font color'. He has shaggy brown hair, shaved on the sides. His smile is often but briefly shown, and while his teeth are jagged and uneven, they are perfectly symmetrical.

OceanSoul

Description: Wearing light robes with a hood, with some dark hair peeking out. Carrying a leatherbound tome of good quality that floats in midair at will, as well as an ever-inked quill to write with.

S34N1C

My guy looks kinda like a Druid at this point. Clothing made of bark and leaves, branches on his head that look like antlers. That kind of thing.

Commemorate Image


TopHat

Magely Appearence: Imagine a stereotypical wizard. Fancy hat, flowing robes, long white beard, pointy shoes, the lot. Then ditch the hat, it isn't fancy enough. Think up the most ostentatious and ridiculous beautiful wizard's hat you can. Square it, then put the aforementioned wizard beneath it.

ufo

description:wait what is this?! a grey alien wearing a wizard robe huh? weird

Unraveller

Appearance: This magely man is man of magely muscular might. A magnificent physique and giant build beneath a simple humble robe. Moving up, one would take note of the chrome dome and thick mustache resting just above the lip. Squinted, old, and gentle eyes along the way.

HELMACON CANAL PROJECT

Command Sulphur and Peat to begin digging a riverbed from the southernmost part of the lily pad pond. Don't have them connect the pond yet, I don't want them trying to dig while underwater. It should essentially be a dry meandering trench for now. Eventually they are to bring this trench to meet up with my crash crater at the southern end of the map.

Assumptions:
Width: Roughly three times a large tree.
Varience: Roughly four large trees to either side at most.
Notes:
Comments: You may wish to consider using spells. A consequence(of this method) will be a protruding lip on each side where dirt is displaced. This may mean more difficult crossing.
ETA: 80 turns from first assigned.

[Gwolfski]

I missed the weekend. Anything interesting happened?

Ill post more soon.

[S34N1C]

Investigate the call for help

<Red=45><Green=90><Blue=30>


((Changed action. See below))

[OceanSoul]

Wait, WHAT? My tome has a NAME? Why? Add investigating it to my action, if I can still cast Sink.

[ufo]

"sigh back to step one"
rename ufo mound to portal mound and go to an unclaimed corner
