[OOC]I'll join in then.  Hope I don't mess y'all up.

God Name:Youh
Appearance:Looks like one of them Greek gods from those old myth movies.  Theres a banana design on his robe.
Spheres:Parties, jesters, bananas, fire, mercenaries, death, multiple personality disorder.

Race Name:Dracon(again)
Fliers, heat tolerant, reptilian, make buildings out of stone, cannot farm for food, can make steel without flux in dry, hot areas.  Cannot survive in cold areas which makes them unable to fly over high mountains.  They don't directly worship Youh, he hired them to help him out since he doesn't have a large group of followers.
Site type:Tropical Plains, Desert.  Capital is shaped like a giant upside down banana peel.
D is the champion, ¥ is the capital[\OOC]

"Oh! a game!"  Youh rushes into the room, pushing people out of his way and plops a couple figurines on the game board.

"Awww! a puppy!" he says, as he climbs up onto a ladder that appears out of nowhere and starts scratching Fenrir behind the ear.  Not really noticing the blood god already clinging to him.

(OOC: there is infact an entire 16x16 reigon with nobody in it. It is a rather barren reigon, but its a goldmine for desert and plain dwelling races. Theres an island there too that would prove a good spot for a race that dwells on land but finds large bodies of water nessesary. That would certainly give the Aegeans some oposition. By the way Kagus, im going ahead and creating a pathway for you to reach the large sea.)

Hermatus watches as the game continues on.

They were making progress, the forest seemed closer with every step and it wouldnt be long before they reached it. They had lost sight of the other migrating group but that was hardly worrying.

Hermatus watched as Yagesh played his magic on the board. This was the first time anyone gathered at the table had decided to use it. No matter, he watched with interest as the landscape changed.

It started as a trench, but it grew deeper. It started as a stream, but it grew faster. This was not the work of Hermatus. Jencull knew this new river would not stop his explorations, the path to the forest still lay open. However the other migration group was certainly on the other side of the now growing river that twisted and turned through the forest. The mountain outpost would see this, most likely a construction would be ordered.

(OOC: Btw Kagus, are you going to turn your small lake into a capitol or are you going to wait until you get to the large sea? If you wont turn it into a capitol I should probably come up with something for 'important sites'.)

Armok suddenly floats up thought the floor, angrily speaking into another OuMCD:
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE ESCAPED!?!? YOU LOST *THAT* UNIVERSE!!! CAN'T EVEN TRUST INSTANCES OF MYSELF??? FAREWELL, INCOMPETENT VERSION OF ME!"
An whit that he trowed the crystal orb into the floor, shattering it into a million pieces.
(OOC: my writing is horrible, I cant even have a consistent tempus x_x)
Armok looks around, upon seeing his avatar he momentary flushes before incarnating it pretending it wasn't ever there. This puts Fenrirs fur on fire.
"so, were were we? ...I request all players to show population statistics."
And then he makes his move.

//////////////////////////////////

Kcaqua was the first to wake up, and he was starved. Looking around he saw a ca 150 meters long rough tunnel whit no turns, branchings or other features ending in a little light filtered through leaves. He grinned at Kcalapu job, according to plan as always. He checked his <<unobtanium>>, but it was of line. He switched to emergency power and asked for the newest event message log.
The melodic female voice of the device spoke:
"Message log:
3 hours ago - unidentified energy disturbance registered.
26 hours ago - battery power low warning.
2 days ago - your birthday.
3 days ago - minor gamma radiation peak detected
5 days ago - you have not written in your diary for 24 hours
6 days ago - power systems malfunction
6 days ago - major law or constant change detected
You last checked this log 7 days ago."

6 days... and whit major metabolism changes! no wounder he was hungry!
He ate a plump helmet from the supply, and went to work waking the others.
He went through the piles until he found a white bad whit a fat red cross on it, below the cross the black and yellow symbol of his organization.
from the bag he withdrew a empty syringe and after a while a can whit a 23 syllable name, the injected all his fellow kobolds whit the drug and after a few minutes hey began to wake up.

After a meal from the dwindling supplies and discussing the situation the kobolds immediately set to work:

[Fenrir]

(OOC: Damn, every time today I began reading this thread I got called away. Nice to see you've returned to the game, Armok! )

The flames engulfing Fenrir's side wakes the monstrous wolf from his slumber. He immediately falls to the ground and begins to roll about the floor, yelping in pain. After a minute or two of this the fire subsided, and the Beast of Slaughter rose, frantically glancing about the room. "What happened?" he asked. The new god, Youh, then caught his eye. "Did you set me ablazing?!" he snarls. Fenrir doesn't wait for an answer before returning to has place at the game board and begins pondering what next to do.

(OOC: I'll make my next move in about ten hours (tomorrow morning).)

It was really happening.

From the age of understanding, every Aegean was told of how the great god Yagesh, lord of water, had promised the Aegean people a great and mighty citadel in a place the fish-people had never seen.  Stories of crashing waves and colorful fish and bountiful waterweeds had delighted the minds of the young and troubled the minds of the adults for generations, as it turned from a shining hope into a rusted weight at the back of the mind, something which could have been great but was never truly possible.

But it was really happening.

At the same moment, every Aegean, from the hatchlings to the priests to the towering elders themselves heard the call deep within their souls.  Every Aegean settled themselves, picked up what few belongings they would need, and simply followed the pull.

The elders, their massive frames almost too large to fit through the passageway connecting their quarters to the temple proper, seeped out of the great temple and followed along in the procession. Their hulking shadows towering over the younger Aegeans and giving the gathered pilgrims a sense of awe at what a simple Aegean can become over time.

The city that had for so long been their home seemed almost alien now.  Deep within each Aegean there was now seated a constant reminder that their true home, the one that they were destined for, lay to the east.  Far into the east.

And so they went.  Crowding together into one massive exodus, they left the stone and shell buildings behind and made their way to the flowing river that had appeared to pave their way towards destiny.

Some knew that they were not quite finished with the place they had called home for so long.  That one day, Aegeans traveling from the new citadel would return to visit this birthplace of their ancestors, and perhaps pay homage to the myriad of temples scattered around.

But for now, they headed east.  Far into the east.

[OOC]

Eh, population.  Let's see.

About 120 Aegean citizens/priests, plus the Phalanx under Q'uagnun's control (and Q'uagnun himself) which is another 65, and then the 8 elders, and then the research party of about 6.

199 Aegeans, roughly.  Let's just round it off to 200 and call it good.

And yeah, the old citadel will be a "special place" eventually.  It will become a pilgrimage to the sea-dwellers (let's ignore the saltwater/freshwater incompatibility for now, shall we?).  The soon-to-be-formed citadel in the sea will be my capitol.

For now, my entire race consists of a research party, a migrant group, and a phalanx of soldiers.  Plus one abandoned city, which will probably crumble a bit and become overgrown in short order.

This is going to be a long trip...  Here's hoping that we don't get picked off along the way.[/OOC]

(OOC: Greiger you should have made a new post rather than editing your old one, I almost forgot about you.  :p As for Kagus, there are only 3 civs in your path, the dwarves, the werewolves and the humans. With a group of 200 theres no doubt you can get to the lake. How many deaths will it take though, that is the question.)

Hermatus stares at Armok, Fenrir and Youh. "Hey I thought I told you to cut it out! Whats with all this lovey cuddley stuff?!" Hermatus shakes his head and moves he piece. "Bah gods, what will you do with em?"

Greentoes sighed, masons had been sent down to the new river. It wasnt normal for nature to just decide it needed a new river. High priest Kylken would not be pleased, or maybe he wouldnt care? It was hard to tell with those holy types, Greentoes didnt need to pray to know Hermatus was looking down on them.

Jencull marched onwards. They would reach the forest in a few days. But who knew what lay in wait for them there? The mountain outpost could only see the tip of the forest, but no doubt it was far deeper.

Kylken watched from the mountain outpost. Jencull would be out of sight once he reached the forest. If the river wasnt there he could settle in a more visible spot. Bah, the peak was blocking their sight, some watchtower this was. He gave the order for a second fortress to be built on the other side of the peak, to make visible what was hidden to him.

Youh moves his champion a bit to the west, doing little hops like how a child would simulate walking with a toy figurine.

Karg stared into the water intently. "What sorcery is this?" he asked no one in particular. "'Tis strange indeed." responded Quagh, "The river cuts the forest in two." Karg scowled. "The dwarves must have something to do with this," he snarled, "but why?" "Perhaps they intend to move their instruments of war upon it." Quagh speculated. "Bah! Not likely." Karg scoffed, "Dwarves are carp-food upon the water." Karg broke is gaze upon the river, "River or no river, we will stop their foolhardy invasion. Ready our soldiers for war!" Quagh nodded and moved off through the trees. He howled as loudly as he could, and recieved a respose. More and more werewolves joined the haunting chorus until the entire forest echoed with the pack's war-song.

The coyote messenger finally arrives at the settlement, and relays her message.

Back at the camp, the expedition party is awakened by a terrifying chorus of howls coming from all around them...

Jencull's group was nearing the forest. They were woken by terrifying howls last night, and he was sure he could see movement at the treeline. He gave word to four of his dwarves to ready their weapons, no doubt something bad was going to happen.

The masons sent by Greentoes had reached the river and had began construction. Stone blocks were being made from the stone leftovers of the tunnel. Two guards stood watch incase any eager fish tried to drag one of the masons in.

Kylken's miners were working well. Soon the second tunnel would be open and the mountain outpost would be extended with an additional fortress. He would call it, hmm, Kylken's Compound. Oh yes, he liked the sound of that. He could just tell this was going to be a good day.
