Thul, Purity of Avarice

I wasn't expecting to get in, but an avarice sphere mirror match should be interesting. One nitpick, you switched my title. It's changed from pure avarice to me being in an endless state of wanting more purity.

Spoiler: Secret turn actions (click to show/hide)

Ponder about a way to upgrade grasslands and forests to provide more food, with a filling and fast growing, deer-like animal. Thul, Purity of Avarice will need more of Those Who Recognize That They Are His, and they must learn to hunt.

D3 will be a forest (or plains if forests aren't available). A faint expectation of a warrior tribe twinges against the consciousness of the first peoples to appear.
B5 will be a grasslands. The surrounding void looks as nothing, but gives a trace sense of rust-red potential, and of mortal creation.
C7 will be a grasslands. There first breath of air carries the weight of the unknown.

It is so, and will be fixed on Turn 1. Edited the text, but the map I was going to retype anyway.

I'll note secrecy isn't something Gods can really do, as it will be known as the turn comes to be. Though hiding what you are making mostly depends on the other side not to peak, but is fine.

  Let the Avarice begin.

Jaanin'Maldaraak
Jaanin'Maldaraak looks upon the void and considers what to do...

The first few territories that are created are the most likely places for his followers to congregate, so these will need to be chosen properly. They should be close enough to permit collaboration, but far enough to ensure that they are not crowded. The terrain should be something that they can adapt to, but also something that their enemies may have difficulty with.

Jaanin'Maldaraak also considers what it should be focusing its attention on in the future, but there is very little information to go on. Therein lies the key; Jaanin'Maldaraak would ponder how to improve upon the information!

Jaanin'Maldaraak takes a moment to think about colors. Jaanin'Maldaraak is somewhat partial to dark purple, dark green, and for some reason dark goldenrod too. Whichever of those contrasts best.

Jaanin'Maldaraak creates a Jungle Tile at F2 (-3FP)
Jaanin'Maldaraak creates a Hill tile at F6 (-3FP)
Jaanin'Maldaraak creates a Wetland tile at G4 (-3FP)

Turn 1

And so the first lands were created, the void's pure emptiness no more. No matter the outcome of this Divine Duel, the emptiness of the past would never be reclaimed.

Jaanin'Maldaraak pondered, finding information key. While Thul created in secret, their work revealed. Both were weakened by this, but as time passes, mortals appear for the first time.

Jaanin'Maldaraak Ponders tile detail observation. It is difficult for a god to truly focus on such small details when one can see all. But one cannot call Jaanin'Maldaraak an idiotic god, nor an inexperienced one. It will take some time however, to become able to do so.

The Age of the Void
Land has appeared, but they are but islands adrift at sea compared to what remains. The Age of Void has yet to pass.

If I remember correctly, if you drop a pondered subject, it resets. So ponder to your conclusion if you wish for it.

Civs can now post their birth and first turn. Naturegirl1999, Detoxicated, and Unraveller have priority. Others are a first come first serve deal.

Ninja Redwolf, I'll wait for you as well.

Jaanin'Maldaraak
Jaanin'Maldaraak looked upon the world and saw that it was good. Good... Not great though. He found it quite interesting that Thul placed one of their first tiles at D3. It was not something that Jaanin'Maldaraak would have done. It was quite close to the edge of the boundary so should a tribe of their followers appear there the only thing that would stand between them and his own would be tiles E2 and E3; which fell under Jaanin'Maldaraak's dominion.

For now, Jaanin'Maldaraak would rest.

Jaanin'Maldaraak ponders tile detail observation
Perhaps if it is difficult to focus on a small area, but less difficult to focus on a large one... Then perhaps the details that should be observed are the statistically significant ones. Rather than actually looking for resources on the tiles on behalf of mortals, perhaps it would be better to identify the qualities of a tile relative to other tiles.

[TricMagic]

I seem to have made mistakes in haste.

Fixed.

[Supernerd]

It is to my understanding that civilizations created now will not actually exist until next turn, thus you cannot do an action on the turn you appear.

[Unraveller]

Wetland! That speaks to me. I was tipping on the favor of creating civilization for the hovering winged ball of light, but the lands of Thul's though prosperous perhaps, did not entice me enough. That aside;

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Civilization Name:Swampmen of Uudvurk
Starting Tile: G-4 -- A marsh dubbed as 'Uudvurk' in the guttural tongue of its people. It's bog waters, though murky, caress them well under the bossom of the great Traveler.
Species Description: An exclusively male race, as distant kin the the Amazonians of the northern jungle. They are marked by their thick, oft muck stained skins. Despite appearing as primative humanoids perpetually left behind in the state of hunter gatherers, always adoring their wardrobe and furnitures, and shields and fetishes by the exotic skins of the bog creatures, those of Uudvurk are ardent worshipers. To the point of unremitting blind faith.

[TricMagic]

Interesting selection.

Anyway, that's all the preselects. 2 spots left. I'll write everything up tomorrow.

[Nirur Torir]

Thul, Purity of Avarice

Ponder more about deer. Should they be fat, to give more food? Or fast and slender, so they don't all get eaten and so his people have to learn to work for them? It wouldn't do to have his people be too lazy to fight for him.

He sat back to watch all of his lands be populated, and to get ideas for his deer.
