FAQ :
Q : Do cities gain popcap only from the tile they are on ?
A : Cities gain popcap from the tile they are on AND the 8 surrounding tiles.

Q : I think my civ should have higher popcaps on certain types of terrain due to tech/magic/whatever. Can I have that ?
A : Sure, but discuss the specifics with the GM.

Q : How are Divine Interventions handled ?
A : Divine Intervention will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Ask the GM beforehand. If it is reasonable and makes for a good narration, you will get what you want. It should also be noted that deities can influence the world only with powers related to their spheres (and a few common ones). Appearing before your loyal subjects is common for deities (so in most cases, you don't need permission to do that, unless you plan to tell some secrets to your followers).
Whenever you use DI, select a relevant sphere(s) and describe the intervention to the GM. The GM will then tell you how long to wait until you can again use that sphere for DI.

Q : How should I handle special resources like ores/gunpowder/mana/whatever ?
A : However you wish, just don't make it too unbalanced (like having every single ore in unlimited amounts in every city you have). The GM might tell you that a resource is getting depleted if you overuse it.

When I said I would make a nw civ, I lied. The Tengu are too fleshed out to be simply dropped.
However, I will still make something new. I blatant rip-off of the old Tengu, but with a new flavour

The Race of the Hitengu
Deity:

Tomoshibi
Tomoshibi is a concenptual god, rather than a bodily entity. One could see her as the embodiment of light or "life-force", which in this case, are regarded as one and the same.
Spheres: Light(4), Fire(2), Life(2)
Tomoshibi sees the Hitengu as just one part in the greater network of life. As everyone, the Hitengu has a right to life freely, and should flourish.

Morphology
Similar to their close relatives, the Tengu, the Hitengu have the morphology of harpies. But unlike the black Tengu, the Hitengu are of sublime angelic beauty. Their feathers and hair perfectly white, and their features are much more humanlike in comparison to their crow relatives.
Their standing height is at an average of 1,70 m, the wingspan is at about 3,50. To be able to fly with such short wings, their wings and chest is very muscular, easily even out-strenghting dwarves. They can however not lift heavy weights easily. The shins of the Hitengu are covered in slightly yellow scales, that end in a pair of menacing claws. Their eyesight and hearing are of supreme quality. Their clothing is light and sparse, usually made from silk or cotton. They can only fly at low altitudes, due to their low resistance towards cold. The Hitengu are strict herbivores, and life mostly of their extensive orchards, the kinomi, a kind of nut that is ground to flour and then made into a kind of bread, as well as honey and milk. They get the milk from goates, which are never slaughtered for meat or leather. Their usual life expectancy is over 80 years, due to their very healthy way of life.


Culture & Society
The Hitengu are connected to nature, and as such they life in perfect balance with their surroundings. This results in somewhat low pop-caps, as they do not use avaiable resources to the fullest. They belief that life is something holy, and will never kill someone, unless to save their own or someone elses life. They had to fight war against other civs before, to defend themselves, so they know how to produce basic armor and basic weapons, but only have very few of them. Their structures are of sublime beauty, and usually intertwined into nature. The roof is always made of glass, to let natural light in, and make you feel like you are less inside a house. Nevertheless, the Hitengu put a high emphasis on lamps, which are not only their favourite decoration for houses, but also used as jewelry.

Their society is organized in a parliamentarian theocracy. Head of the nation would be the Hinyuudou, which is assigned through interpretation of reincarnation. In other words, when the old Hinyuudou dies, the children that were born shortly after are tested and judged by the remaining priests, and one of them is (probably) the reincarnation of the former Hinyuudou.
The parliament consists of representatives coming from all parts of society, and are voted for directly. Both the Hinyuudou and the parliament have the right to propose new laws, which are only passed if the respective other agrees to it. This way the parliament ensures the laws are not too spritual in nature, and the Hinyuudou that these laws are not too "worldly".
There is no such thing as a court or any judges. The Hitengu do not understand the concept of punishment. There is no need to, as everyone in Hitengu society abides by the law.
They have no such thing as a greater goal. They only want to life in harmony, and if possible, spread that harmony.
Sprituality is something important for the Hitengu. Tomoshibi is not an actual god for them, but rather the concept of life-force. Each and every thing in existance, may it be plant, animal, or even a stone, has Tomoshibi in it. Light is the most dominant "touchable" form of tomoshibi, fire is also something regarded as such.
As a result, the inner sanctum of Hitengu temples is usually empty, or contains a mirror.

Technology
Their technology is not very far developed. Though their architectural knowledge is supreme, their ability to forge metal objects is only weakly developed. They can, however, produce and work with glass very proficently.
They also have extensive medical knowledge, and are able to cure most kinds of poisons or sicknesses. For the Hitengu, losing a leg is not a death sentence.

Magic & Divine Powers
The Hitengu practise a form of clerical magic, which they refer to as Hijutsu. In simple terms, it could be best described as fireworks. The Hitengu are a race that worships light, therefor, fireworks must not be missing in their festivals and rituals. But without gunpowder, that's a little hard. Hijustu is the practise of storing up light in containers, and releasing it in a very concentrated and controled matter, usually for artistic purposes, such as fireworks. These containers also find a place in everyday life, as lamps that glow magicaly, or jewelry that has a mysterious sparkling to it.

In past wars, there have been occasions on which this magic was used for military uses. At first, it was only armor and shields that emitted a strong light to blind the enemy, later the concentrated light was used as a weapon itself. Just like a firework bomb based on gunpowder exploding right next to your face can kill you, so can Hijutsu.
The ones who developed that use for military purposes had such a bad conscience that they would never be able to smile again for the rest of their life.
The military variant hasn't been practised in more than 100 years, only the civil use is still seen everywhere. The knowledge on how to use it to kill lies in the libraries.



Arrival in the world
They are natives. Long wars have decimated them, but as their enemies are now gone, they are slowly recuperating.They start with 500, at X18Y13

Hero:(http://i42.tinypic.com/fwlvv5.png)
Yamato Hachirou Yumma Ken'ichi Uchiwakamaru.

The 8th hitengu ever created, Uchiwaka has been living as an immortal for the last 1500 years. His swordsmanship and Hijutsu both are superb. Uchiwaka as a legend has filled many books and chronicles, in more than just one world, but Uchiwaka the person is remaining a mystery that is only slowly unraveling.

Deity:
Kazad demon of the Deeps. (Fire 3, Dark 3, Death 2)
Most have never heard of Him, as He goes mainly by titles, such as 'The Dark Rider' and 'Scourge of the Earth'. He controls the Orcs and their minions.
He is portrayed as a tall, strong figure, dressed head to toe in a dark robe. His face is hidden hy a hood.

Basic description:
The Orcs are the 'Master' race, which is as much as can be said about the chaotic nature of most of their citadels. Orcs have a red-black skin tone, with thick, muscled arms and powerful legs. Beneath them are the Trolls and Goblins. Trolls are huge hulking monsters, usually found in caves or ruins, they have a similar skin tone to the Orcs, but much darker. Goblins are also quite similar to their Orc relatives but smaller and more weedy. They are usually the cannon fodder of any Orc army. Orcs usually live for about 400 years, Trolls up to 800 and Goblins no more than 60.

Culture & Society:
The Orcs lead the chaotic strongholds in which they live, sending out raiding parties comprising of themselves, and their brothers, the Trolls and Goblins. It is a sad life to be a Goblin, as any Orc or Troll could give you an order, and you would have to do it. A slow death would be the punishment. The Orcs are a warlike race, although their method of fighting is comparatively civilised. They use horns and drums to signal to their soldiers, and Standards to keep them together. They also split themselves into warbands, comprising of about 50 Orcs, who work together using various tactics depending on their weaponry.

Technology:
They can create many varieties of armour and weaponry using iron. But they are able to work with  almost any other metal. Their hand ranged weapons, such as crossbows are poorly made, as they will only go to Goblins. Their siege weapons however, are beautiful. They can build huge towers, ladders, Trebuchet, Catapult, Ballistae and they can even make, with some magic, pots of magic powder. In other words, explosives.
The Orcs live underground, in winding tunnels and caverns usually with large holes open to the sky, to vent away the fumes of their furnaces. As such they are unable to build much, except with wood. But even then it is of poor quality.

Magic & Divine Powers:
The Orcs have various shamans and magic doers that are able to manipulate the flow to a lesser extent. They can do small things, such as throw fireballs & lightning and can enchant weapons with some form of magic, usually Sharpness or Fireblade. Most magic is quite flashy and over the top, and all could be done an easier way.

Arrival in the world:
They are natives. After Gaz's conquest his horde was seriously depleted. As such they only start with 350 Goblins, 200 Orcs and 75 Trolls. They start at x22,y22

Population support and growth:
Goblins = 25%
Orcs = 15%
Trolls = 5%

Order is Goblins, Orcs, Trolls.

Swamp: 25|60|5//2|1|1 (U|N|U//N|U|U)
Tundra: 25|15|50//1|1|2 (U|U|N//U|U|N)

Hero:
Gaz, the Orc. Warlord of an Empire, he finally defeated the last rival tribe and now intends to conquer the world. No creature, Goblin, Orc or Troll can stand in his way, and he is a ruthless tactical minded warlord. He fought his brother for the title of Warlord after his father died, and his career started then.

Yay, finally, I'll post my adventurer sage/wizard later, but one question (from Akroma's race descrition):

Quote
Spheres: Light(4), Fire(2), Life(2)

What exactly do the numbers meen? And if I want to classify my hero's powers, how much points can I allocate? Btw, I'll be using Istrian's magic system, all credits to him for it.

I would join but I'm going to be buzy for some time. I'll still be watching though.
May toss the Dracon in again if I ever get the chance.

If this is happening I guess I don't want to be left out... on the other hand I'm not sure if I approve of this game, I liked the BotG3 rules better and I'd much rather see that resurrected. Also I think it's a bit hasty, there should be an OOC thread were we can discus rules long before the game starts.
I'd like to discus on IRC whit Istrian really.

If I join, I don't think I want to write an essay every turn, so maybe I'll just create an adventurer, I have some idea...

Basically, some forest animal gains sentience randomly from magic effects, that's me. Probably some rodent, maybe a rat or a squirrel. then I proceed on first turn to happen upon and join one of the mage organisations.

I have never done this, but looks like something I can handle :)

The Race of the Zarzin

Deity
Zarakroft
Zarakroft is a physical being, born many years before any can remember. He embodies Death, war and famine. Often seen at the front lines of war, he sees his people as tools of war, but as with tools you must take care of them if they are to work properly. Fire(4), Death(4).

Morphology
The Zarzin are humanoid shape, about 1.8m tall. They are described to resemble oversized cockroaches, but have no wings and have a thick orange tinted exoskeleton. Being physically large, they can weigh up to several hundred kilograms, with some weighing over 500 Kilograms. They have large eyes but have no hearing. They rely on sacs of air in which they can sense vibrations, giving them sudo-hearing. They only wear full suits of armor at all times and are all well trained in the ways of war. They are canivores, but during battle they do not eat, sometimes for weeks at a time. They favor warm climates over cold climates, but can survive with special precautions. Life expectancy is very low due to constant wars, but is estimated to be at 60 years old. Zarzin are always seen in their Armor and one has never been seen except for Zarakroft himself, but he could not even be a Zarzin himself.

Culture & Society
They solely believe in the leadership of Zarakroft, and total domination. They look forward to war and are always ready for a battle. They never interfere with other Zarzin's but will go out of their way to supress another culture. They do not value nature and build massive resource eating cities with large forges, often in the center of the city. They view the world as something to use. They do not have any other religious goals.

The society is organized in militaristic branches, each controlled by a Warlord. The people always follow what the Warlord tells them to do and will gladly sacrifice themselves to save the supreme being. They do not value their own life, but only the life of their leaders. if a leader is to die, the next relative of the warlord takes place. If the entire family is wiped out, a Warlord from a different sector picks one by their own choosing. There has never been a recorded conflict between Zarzin, but if such a event were to occur immediate death would result.

The greater goal of the Zarzin are to dominate the planet in any way. They do not practice alliances or truces even if their own society is stressed to the breaking point. Religion has no moral value for the Zarzin, but The god of Zarakroft is considered a Sudo-Religion.

Technology
The Zarzin technology is incredably advanced, with Suits of armor made of metals that can withstand many arrow hits. Their Armor crafting and metalworking skills are rumored to be the best in the world, but few have survived an encounter to relay such information. They rely on their broadswords and pikes to kill the enemy, with special divisions using flash rifles, a mysterious device that mystifies the Zarzin themselves.

Weapons: BroadSwords, Pikes, Spears, Tryveln (swords with a heated razorsharp wire and a supporting bar, supposedly strong enough to sever arms inside armor)
Ranged: Flash Rifles (Fast firing but wildly inaccurate and not very powerful)
Armor: Full body plating, rumored to be attached directly to the Zarzin itself.
Ammo: Steel and metal balls.

Magic
The Zarzin have no magical ability and the Zarzin deny any possibility of magic. The only item in the Zarzin culture that resembles any type of magical abilities is the Tryveln with its super heated wire. In its hilt it has a Ruby red crystal that glows when the Tryveln is held.

Arrival in the world
Zarzin are believed to have arrived to this world with Zarakroft and defeated their enemies as they slowly migrated to the mountaneous region for its resources.

Hero:
Krechin the Destroyer
Krechin the Destroyer is the secondary leader of the Zarzin. He is often seen in battle on the front lines, and charges in with a Tryveln in each hand. Standing at over 3.65m tall and weighing well over 700 kilograms, Krechin the Destroyer lives up to his name.

Nation: Zarzin Empire
Cities:
M1xA (capital) X2Y16 (Volcano Mountain)
Inhabitants: 285
Population Cap: 1800

Hoping to balance out this race, here are some weaknesses of the Zarzin:
Zarzin are like armor plated marsh mellows, once you poke through the plating you can wreak havoc on the soft gooey insides
Piercing weapons are key against their armor (JOINTS).
They posses no magical ability.
Tryveln wires are prone to snapping.

Post by: Zako on November 17, 2008, 02:28:57 am
Question about your race krumlink, what weaknesses do they have?

From what I read, they seem to have none other than ranged combat, but they have major armor to counteract that. They have no religious uprising, no society unless the military counts and no politics which are obviously a weakness.

How is it possible to even reach them, and how can they even be defeated?
Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: krumlink on November 17, 2008, 06:10:44 am
@Akroma: No problem, just delete the nodes

@Zako: Piercing weapons get through their armor and wreak havok on the insides (they are bugs you know).

The Political structure is a militaristic dictatorship, and the religion is Zarakroft's biddings/orders.

This culture is a complete contrast of Akroma, it should be exciting how it happens!

They like to settle in volcanic regions the best because it runs the massive war forges.

Krumlink two things.

1. If you look into my race you will see that your desired startpoint is very bad chosen cause you embark on my mountain peak.
   
   edit: nevermind you can have it.

2. please use the modify option. This way the thread dont becomes so cluttered.

for a race ofsuch relatively fast growing warmonsters, a start pop of 560 might be a bit big, don't ya think ?
Especially in a society in which the military makes up more than 90% of the society

Well... i was checking my email at long last again, and noticed a peculiar message. private message in bay12! And BotG! oo.
Well this kind of thing sparks old interests.

Anyway, Akkadians were a bit boring i guess, far too complicated they were... So if you dont mind, i might be interested in joining again as the old and mighty storm giants?

Game Type: Adventurer
Name: Danalof, The Wandering Sage

An aging mage from far off lands, Danalof is a great sage and mage renowned in many kingdoms. Having lived a long and adventurous life playing many different roles, from lowly scribe to courageous soldier, from king's advisor to masterful researcher, he felt that he finally deserved some peace and quiet to spend the rest of his (probably still long) life, comtemplating the deep secrets of magic and wandering the land in exploration. But he knew he couldn't do so in places such as were he resided, because of all the allies and ennemies that he had made and that would keep on pestering him, so he set off on a long trek to find some place peaceful. Little did he know he would end up anywhere BUT a peaceful place, right in the middle of the Battlefields of the Gods...

Danalof brings with him almost none of his amassed treasures and resourses, bringing along only a small backpack with the most basic of tools and research papers. He can rely on his experience to work with makeshift tools, and his great knowledge to conjure almost any spell he can cast from memory. Along with these material items, he is followed by his familiar, a small shapeshifting fire elemental (shapeshifting, in this case, means that it can change its shape but still remains made of fire, so not polymorphing) that surpresses the heat it generates when near its master and when it is commanded to by him.

Danalof comes from a nation were magic was an important subject of study, and he himself has done alot of research on it, and thus has a good understanding of what it consists of. (What follows is Istrian's magic system, slightly simplified and summarized) This magic is the bending of the natural flows of magic, present everywhere in the universe, by the will of the mage or the usage of some other means to achieve a magical spell (cast a spell). These flows are divided into 16 flows, themselves arranged into 4 schools:

School of Creation: Water, Life, Binding, Illusion
School of Change: Displacement, Temporal, Transmutation, Air
School of Balance: Nature, Earth, Divination, Mind
School of Destruction: Death, Light, Darkness, Fire

Danalof has trained himself well in all principles of magic, yet no one can master all these flows. I'll give how good he is in each flow, with 4 approximate levels of experience: Legendary, Master, High, Normal. Normal is what any mage that has studied the flow can achieve, so Normal in Fire would mean he could cast a normal fireball, but not rain fire or fry 10 people at ounce, and Normal in Time would allow him to slow down time for a minute or two, but not completely stop time for a day, etc... High is what a mage that has trained further in that flow could attain, Master what most mages can attain when (if) they master that flow, and Legendary is what few obtain even with extensive training.

Now for the levels, and some extra info about Danalof's experiences with some of the flows (Skill distibution: 2 Legendary, 3 Master, 5 High, 6 Normal):

-Transmutation: Legendary. Danalof is renowned through-out the realms as an incredible alchemist, having studied transmutation flows to such an extent as being to easily transmute lowly materials and objects into much more useful stuff. He had also ounce been known to use his alchemic skills in a great siege, transmuting a portion of the ennemy citie's walls into mud, air, and dust, allowing allied troops to enter the city.

-Binding: Legendary. Along with his alchemical skills, binding enchantments into objects is one of Danalof's greatest strengths. Rather than directly partaking in most combats, he prefers to supply his allies with magical means of assistance, wether by binding a healer mage's spells into potions for later use or preparing powerful wands and staffs for less experienced mages to use to cast powerful spells on the battlefields. He even developped some incredibly potent magical artifacts, yet decided to leave them behind so that none would want to follow him to get his hands on one of the artifacts.

-Illusion: Master. Danalof uses alot of illusion, both to remain incognito while wandering the land, and to trick his ennemies.

-Displacement: Master. Many time, wandering around can be bothersome when you are suddenly needed on the other side of the world, and troops can also benefit from some fast transportation.

-Light: Master. A talent left from his times as a battle mage, Danalof had practiced using the flow of light as a means of destruction, which is quite unusual amongst battle mages, as they normally favored fire or death or darkness flows.

-Life: High. Mages on the battlefield are not only supposed to atomize the opposition, but also help injured allies as well as keep themselves in fighting conditions no matter what wound they are delt.

-Air: High. Weather control and some more fighting capabilities never hurt anyone. Unless you were on the wrong team, of course.

-Time: High.

-Fire: High. Mostly to complement the Light flows he used in combat.

-Divination: High. Ounce he settled down from direct combat, Danalof started concentrating on divination flows to help him in his research, as well as in advising leaders and giving them an edge in conflicts, wether politically or combat-wise.

-Water, Nature, Earth, Mind, Death, Darkness: Normal. Danalof can still use these flows in many ways, although not to the extent of the other above flows.

Game Type: Adventurer
Name: Kcirph
Species: Meadow jumping mouse (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meadow_jumping_mouse)
starting position: 30,8 (pontifically right in front were Danalof will stumble upon me)

Randomly archived sentience due to magical flow saturation, and whit no kin is very lonly and lives like an involuntary hermit, has never met another sentient being but due to the magic that gave him sapience he knows how to talk.
Except for being sapient, and quite a bit above average human intelligence, he is a quite ordinary individual of his species. Mentally he is very flexible and will learn and adapt fast, and probably show talent for most anything he learns. I assume magic power is not tied to the physical size of the body...

(guess I have to talk IRC to polifar for first turn)

Welcome aboard Armok, glad to have you back! Although last time we were about to rule the world with soul supercomputing titanium golems, now we're just a humble sage and a mouse... But I'm sure we'll have our shot at glory yet!

Oh, but about the IRC... Please, remember what happened in BotGII. You got angry at me because I couldn't show up in IRC most of the time, and that was BEFORE school started. So now, don't expect me to be able to appear much on IRC. I'm sure we'll manage withought discussing too much, since we are not leading nations that need alot of planning or something...

Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Nhiphanter on November 18, 2008, 08:07:32 am
The Storm Giants are here again! Fear them!

The God: Ukko, Storm god
Spheres: Weather 3, Destruction 3, Lightning 2.

Race: storm giants
Civ: The Peak of storms

The God, Ukko.

Ukko most often takes the form of an old, muscular, weather worn and scarred man. His face is adorned by a long, unkept graybeard. He is dressed in an old smelling wolf rug, a gigantic wolf rug.

Homever, sometimes Ukko can take the form that he calls his "true form". A towering man, made of noflesh but pure energy and flame, shadowing over any other being.

Ukko sees the storm giants more or less as his very own sons, and is more or less very attached to them, particularly his champion, Hrafn. He rarely shows his fatherly pride homever. This doesnt mean he hesitates to send them on raids against other civilizations.

Morphology

The storm giants are in many ways like giant dwarves, although a bit more slender on the stomach but still quite stocky. It is amongst them customary to value every bit of hair their body grows, and often there is storm giants with huge knee length beards where the skulls of their enemies clang in their morbid tones.
The size of a giant ranges from 8 to 11.5 meters high. They are also incredibly strong creatures, capable of working as live siege engines. They will just collect a large pile of man sized rocks and start throwing. Not as one might think, the giants are too quite agile creatures, though against smaller foes their size negates any chance of dodging.

Culture and society


The storm giants are a highly warlike race, but tend to lean more towards barbarism than organized militarism. They rarely engage in all out conquering wars as they prefer to raid the land and then leave it alone for awhile. Like harvesting a field.

On homelife they are very communal. The giants live in villages, sometimes in cities, often nestled on cliffs, and it is by far not unusual for every giant to know each other. The family and town head is always male, since the giant society is heavily patriarchal, where the only known goverment system is despotism. The rule of the strongest.

Architechture is very norse styled, where giants live in large longhouses. The temple to the storm god is also always the center of the town, and also serves as the town center, gathering place and even as a bar. The cities are often an unplanned huddle, where streets criss cross between the buildings.

Religion plays a heavy role in storm giant society, very much because Ukko likes to make frequent appearances, and is know to live with the mortals for very long times. He is respected, he is feared and the priesthood enjoys being a caste above all laws (as few as they are).
The word of the god, in other words that of the priests, is often the law in smaller villages.
Disputes are settled in duels overwathed by the priests, because the word of the storm god dictates that duel is to death, and as such most giants prefer to keep good relations with others.
In many cases the priesthood acts as the leaders of towns, because the benefits of their station also bestows them good places to take control.
Due to the exclusive station homever, those worthy of priesthood are few and the ranks are small.

Ways of War

The common giant tactic is the well known and respected "Scream and charge".
Almost always the giants use things like warpaints, grisly trophies and other terror tactics to sow fear amongst the enemy. It is customary to tie the skulls of every enemy youve killed into your hair or beard, providing additional luck armor and also looking quite grisly.
The most common weapon used among the giants is a warhammer, or a sword. Axes are used sometimes, but not often.
Armor is a chainmail and helmet, and somesort of chainmail pants.
It is also common to see giants, when in more strategic mind, to use large steel towershields, and approach as a wall of steel and weapons. Those backer in line will lift their shields as a "roof" to protect them from arrows.

The most respected division of any giant military force is the "battlefield terrors".
A squad of giants clad in full plate mail, a steel mask shaped and painted into demonic faces and a huge two-handed sword. These giants are the absolute elites, a rare bunch most often serving as bodyguard units.

Then there is the ranged squad. One of the inventions giants have made, is the ballista. Though not in the way most would use it. The giants refer to it as a handheld ranged weapon, launching barrages of steel ballista bolts in a single reload. Usually these weapons are only usable 2-3 times in a battle, due to the difficulty of carrying the ammo. That is, ammo is bundles of bolts, shot all at once.

The Skalds are a more special kind of soldiers, for they are bards in battlefield. They often dualwield two weapons, charging at the first lines, singing dirges of death as they fight. This has a moral boosting effect on the giants.
But the most powerful ability of these particulars is their skill to raise such battle spirit that they can send nearby giants into a berserker rage!

Technology

The level of knowledge in storm giant society is somewhere along the dark ages, with the occasional medieval type invention, like the handheld ballistas and knowledge on castle building. Technological minds are few, since such inviduals are often scorned for being "weak" and "foolish". The ability to read is seen as a trait for those who have spent far too much time inside with books and far too less time spent outside honing the skills and instincts required for traditional giant warfare.
Homever, if something useful is found and even most traditional ones see its potential, it is often taken in open arms.

Magic&The divine.

There is no magic in storm giant society if you dont count the innate skills of the giants to harness lightning and use it against their enemies. The other one being that often large bodies of giant troops are followed by strong storms.
The priesthood has sway over the weather effects and lightning in greater terms than an ordinary giant, and as such are often employed as war clerics, running in first lines hurling bolts of lightning at the enemy or staying in backlines controlling the weather in the giants favour. Causing a fire due lightning strike is also one of the more ordinary moves.

Arrival

By Ukko's will, they have been transported into this world, after the last one was decimated in a war against all others. A strange situation the giants just seem to drift in.

Hero

Hrafn, the lord of storms.
Hrafn is an expectionally large storm giant, over 14 meters tall, armed with his considerable cunning, deadly strength and the powers of storm gods champion.
He is by now, some 450 years old, and there is beginning to appear a few white strains in his black beard.

Hrafns crest in his shield and banners is a black, glowing red eyed, raven in a dark blue back.

In BotG II, Hrafn received two gifts from the storm god: A huge warhammer, made of unknown, black metal. This warhammer, a fearsome weapon, had the ability knock back Hrafns enemies with a mere swing, no touch was required (like saurons mace). If it came to hit someone, it would release a shockwave of lightning, incapacitating or killing the target. If not dead by the mere hit.

The other gift was a huge black wolf, larger than Hrafn, and now used as his steed. The wolf is the rugs Ukko wears, reanimated.

Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Istrian on November 18, 2008, 03:18:50 pm
A new day dawns upon an old world. Many races and civilization have gone through during ages now forgotten. Deities and their followers have waged countless wars, wars that ended long ago, or perhaps not that long. And once again, a small part of the northern hemisphere of the ancient world is going to become the Battlefield of the Gods.

The Zarzin driven by their thirst for blood and conquest have entered the land from the western mountain ranges. Seeking resources and sowing destruction they settled upon the highest peak they could find, deciding to make it their base for conquest.

For one hundred years the Hitengu have hidden from a powerful enemy most of them remember vividly. Now, hoping that their enemy is gone from the lands, they move again, ready to rebuild their great nation with sweat or blood, or perhaps both.

The Flamewood Elves stir as well, driven by an unknown force of motivations unknown. Their great underground city surrounding a lake, their ancestral home for countless generations prepares for yet a new day.

Finally, the Orcs who, after quelling all internal discention finally turn their eyes to outside their mountains. New lands open up to their minds, new lands with new races to conquer and dominate. New slaves to be captured and new riches to be looted.

High above the skies floats an ancient palace of marble, silver and gold. No one can surely say how large or small the place is, but those who know of it say it is large enough for an infinity of gods and goddesses with their hosts of angels and demons to reside inside. And yet it is small enough that no mortal who watched the skies has ever seen it.

Inside the floating palace, in a huge room resembling an amphitheatre, the Gaming Hall as some call it, many gods are assembled. In the middle of the hall a cloaked and hooded figure stands, his skin covered by the heavy clothes he wears. The Watcher, they call him, as he is the one who watches over this world, never intervening, except when the Apocalypse -yet another, as this world has seen many- approaches. He adresses the assembly of gods with an ageless voice.

“Hail to you Immortal friends. I welcome you to the games we are now holding to decide the future of the tiny region, you now see below your feet.” At these words the floor vanishes to give place to an aerial view of the land. “Some of you are still reticent at letting your followers move into this region. Others,” said The Watcher motioning at a group led by Ukko, who yet had to adapt to the rules set by  The Watcher in this new world, “have come from far away worlds to participate in the event. And so, let us begin... the Battle of the Gods.”

((Emperor_Joanthan : You can choose another favored biome for movement, or drop an unfavored one. You can also round up all those 34.5. 35 is a nice and round number. Other than that, just to make sure you understand your special popcap rule : your city's popcap is determined by the tiles you went through during any given turn, NOT the 8 tiles surrounding your destination tile. So, if you don't move during a turn, you get support only from the tile you are on. And now, you are good to go.))

And so, nomadic horsemen from the eastern lands entered the Battlefield. What will they find during their journeys in lands unknown ? Only time will tell.

All the battle of the gods have been great to read so far but I am not so good at getting my head around all the rules so I may just have to stick with an adventurer for now (If there is anything wrong at all just tell me and I will change it with no fuss)

Game Type: Adventurer
Gender:Male
Name: Skeris Moonarch
Race:Half Elf Half Human (yay for genericness)
Description/backround ect: The world is a fast changing place, and for many the constant waves of battle destruction and death are a blight...However the Bard Skeris does not see things this way, as a composer of ballads and a wandering fighter himself he sees war as a time for Gods and legends and the heroes that follow them to arrive and many great battles take place, all so that he can earn his share of coin.

A young relatively attractive(all bards are really) half-elf Skeris's interest in his line of work stemned from his father being a great hero himself and Skeris idolized him throughout his childhood. Upon leaving home Skelis was picked up by a wandering troup'e of musicians where he picked up most of his skills. However the world is a dangerous place and having to often fight for his survival the young half-elf learned the spear and a thing or two about throwing knives. It was the combination of these two skills and large senses of justice and wanderlust which persuaded Skeris to begin wandering the land, to follow heroe's and perhaps one day become one.

Skeris begins in the forests located at (7,17) with his small campsite equipt with light elven leather armour a spear and short sword with a cloak filled with throwing knives and of course his trademark flute of his own design. He sit's idly wondering when and where to head to next.

((Zako, you should read the new rules about movement and pop-cap instead of just copying your old race.))


It was the very first hour of the new year. More than 100 years have passed since the last time a light was glowing in the realm of Tenrai Minzoku. It was THE light. The light of the legends, the divine signal which had been foretold.

The dark area, had ended.

The age of hiding, was finished.

Not a single moment of doubt or confusion hit the Hitengu. They saw the sign, and not a single word was needed. They went home, and turned on their lamps, hundreds of them.
A bright flare, to welcome the return of the age of light.




Only a few days later, small groups of scouts, 10 persons each, left the city of Teiichi. The time of isolation had ended, and it was their duty to find who had passed and who had come in the 100 years that went by.

Edit2: The Turn!

###############################################################

Turn 1: First Encounter

A long tail, trailing through the dead leaves revealed by the melting snow as the ones for next year were just budding on the trees.
The mouse was out early for its species, usually it would be asleep by this time of the year, but last year has been meagre and it hadn’t been able to build up proper fat reserves, so it was forced to wake up as to not die of starvation.
It sat down and cleaned its whiskers, but soon scurried of again in search for food.

A noise of a snapping branch, some large animal was on the move, It quickly hid in a patch of high grasses.

The being was strange, like a walking tower 20 tails high, covered in something that was not fur not feathers nor scales, it seemed to be bipedal and the forelimbs grasped strange objects, it was terrifying.
The mouse stared in awe.
Those objects… that covering somehow seemed not quite part of it… all in all, it seemed… Could it be… he wasn’t alone? There was something else that thought the way he did?

The creature moved on, but he was compelled to follow, after all food was just as likely to lie in that direction.
And so he followed it, for hours, and then for days, he knew it was insane, to leave home and all he knew behind, risking life and limb, but if there was a possibility…

And he became more and more convinced it was, this being was intelligent, it formed it’s environment to it’s will, created shelter and even fire each night, and it ate strange food it carried in a bag.

Those foods smelled very good, and one night he snuck up to the bag and entered it, a reckless move, but his curiosity was more powerful than his survival instinct.
((The hallmark of a mad scientist! :p))
And they were as superb as they smelled, the best he had ever eaten, and huge amounts in a single place,  and he was soon stuffed, and fell asleep.

He awoke by the entire world suddenly tilting 90 degrees.

Frozen in panic, he remembered last night, and cursed his own stupidity, in terror he saw the hand recing down towards him… and grab some food to the side, not noticing him, he was safe for now.

The wizard took out the cheese, and noticed a large part of it was gnawed of, he was not amused, just as he looked back to grab something else he saw a small Meadow jumping mouse exit it and make for some bushes, he quickly lashed out and pined it to the ground by the tail.

CAUGHT!

“P-please d-don’t kill me…”
How did he know to make those strange sounds? And the meaning, he felt it was somehow related to the way he thought, but considering the situation did not think much about it. It did seem to bewilder the creature and make him hesitate however, so he tried again.
“I’ll n-not make good eating, p-please let me go?”
The huge creature did not let him go, but it seemed very puzzled, after several long terrifying seconds it spoke:
“I will not kill you, little one, but I am most intrigued, were did you learn to talk the tongue of men?”
He tried to figure it out, but he didn’t know really, he considered making a long explanation for the way he thought, but it’d just be silly.
“I-I don’t know.”
“Very well, little one, I am Dandalof, The Wandering Sage, and you are free to travel whit me and maybe we will find out, you will make a most interesting object of study, and perhaps a good pupil as well.”
The mouse couldn’t believe its ears, it had one insane and was hallucinating, that was the only explanation.
He sat down and cleaned his whiskers.
After a few trembling seconds he gathered enough courage to answer:

“It would be an honour, great sage.”

And that is how it all began…

((will hopefully be continued this turn if time there is for that, but likely not today unless Polifar spontaneously shows up on the chat.))

Turn 1: Solitary echoes

Skeris sat still staring into the flames, it had been long since he had been called to entertain at one of the great keeps of the world. Flicking a throwing knife casually between his hands he pondered his next move. After quite some time passed he carved a crude map into a piece of tree bark and took some well needed rest...tomorow he would begin his journey.

Skeris quickly packed his personal belongings and began his long journey east where he hoped to meet the great kings and legends of the new age.

However the first part of Skeris's journey only took him to the edge of the forest ((17,9)) a jaunt that aside from a few encounters with wild beasts (costing him a few throwing daggers) it was very uneventful. However things would soon change.

((A small clarification on movement using boats : moving on rivers uses your river speed, moving on sea uses your water speed. However, moving on a tile next to the coast uses either your water or your river speed (whichever suits you). This is because coastal water is calm enough for small river-going boats while being deep enough for deep-sea vessels.))

Turn 1 (Kind of late)
Zarakroft sat brooding at his table. He could clearly tell that the world was about to understand the power of the mighty Zarzin once again. He could taste future battles, and ordered the forges to double capacity, billowing mighty clouds of choking gas from the Magma Forges. War had begun, and the earth was trembling.

Turn 2
Zarakroft slowly loooked upon his nearest advisor, gracefully bowing before him.

"What do you demand of your great war god?"

"We have spotted a division of Hitengu scouts heading due west of their capital. What course of action should we take?"

Zarakroft had wondered what the intentions of the Hitengu were, the best course of action would to send in 2 flanking divisions and a single meeting party. The meeting party will of course have Krechin to demonstrate to the Hitengu that The Zarzin will not tolerate hostile actions under any circumstances and do not wish for pity.

"Aide, prepare the soldiers and Krechin. We will intercept them in 3 groups, a left flank, right flank and foward flank. We move out TONIGHT.

(Military groups will be represented by the weapons they carry except for prime leaders)
In Flanking Group 1:
5 Flash Rifles
5 Tryveln
1 Champlain with Flash Rifle

Turn 2: The Sage and The Mouse

####

A bottle of ink, a pen, a piece of paper, and a mouse, are all about the same size. Except the pen that really depend on the size of the feather, luckily.

“Dear diary, Dandalof has been teaching me writing for the last few days,
and says this is good practice, so that’s why I’m wring this.”

The mouse lent back a bit, holding back the impulse to bite the edge of the pen while he thought of what to write next, and then continued.

“It’s been about two months, by several orders of magnitude the most wonder-
and eventful in my life.
Dandalof has taught me all sorts of things, about physics and nature, about philosophy,
about reading and writing, about civilization…
About a myriad things, all wonderful beyond what I could ever have imagined before meeting him.
He has taught me the basics of magic to, not enough to actually do anything whiteout great risk,
and we have to figure out how good flow atonement I have so horrible things doesn’t happen
when I try it, but he says it’s only a week or to before that’s done, it’d have been long ago if we
had access to the facilities of a proper lab.
He says I will probably have quite a good one, because he think the reason I know speech and
abstract thought is that some kind of flow singularity occurred at the exact time and place I was
born, the things I do or don’t know indicate this. I saw a bird get hit by lightning and survive once
and he says a flow singularity is more or les the magic equivalent.
We are mostly travelling across the plains; it’s like one HUGE meadow stretching on to the horizon
whit no trees at all!
It’s a bit scary whit all the open sky, Dandalof says it’s natural for my species to be afraid of
these kinds of wide open spaces, and when I get scared I hide in his hat.

We have made it real cozy in there, Dandalof thought that as a person I should have a proper
home, so we put a few pockets in it were I fit well, a net draped back and forth a few times to
make it easy to climb around whit almost no effort, we even put A pocket on the outside to where
it wasn’t to visible and connected it to one of the pockets inside whit a small hole I can squeeze
through, and he made part of it transparent whit magic so light could get in and I can look out
even when inside, a window he call it. And he put a magical gem in there that gives light at night
to, and I put some of the food in the pockets so I don’t have to try to find it in the backpack evry
time, and I’ll put this diary and writing equipment there when done to, so I have everything I may
ever need in there!

Now we should get going again, and it’s hard to write when bumping around on the head of a
walking sage, so I have to stop writing.
Life is as good as it can be, seya!”

((keep in mind that the position on the map indicates the position of a unit at the end of the turn. The position of my scouts was at the end of the first month, the position of your scouts at the end of the second month. By then, my scouts are even FURTHER away from you. I oppose you and say that your guys did not see the Hitengu. Also, who sends 3 guys on foot unto a march that will take several months, including the time it takes to build deep sea vessels to cross the ocean ?))

Northern scouts:
Summary of the encounter with the Flamewood Elves:

The Hitengu were surrounded and taken into custody. After their were tied with rope and blindfolded, they were lead to Echogroth, and brought to Briar, one of the elder elves.
Being one of the oldest elves, Briar immediatly identified the prisoners as Hitengu, a race that was deemed extinct for over 100 years.
The Hitengu explain that after they stopped hiding, they were send up north, to see if the Flamewood Elves were still inhabiting this part of the world, and to renew old alliances. They invite the leaders of the elves to Teiichi, to meet up with Ranpu. The Hitengu missed out on a lot, and would love to find out how the world has changed in 100 years.
The scouts stay as guests in echogroth until the end of turn2, and will lead the elves to Teiichi starting next turn.

The soldiers who took them into custody were yelled at for the rude way they treaded such welcome guests, but not punished, on the wish of the Hitengu.

-------

Eastern scouts:

The scouts wandering east came upon a spring, which was still surrounded by the ruins of an old Hitengu city. They have read about this place in history books. Here, under the serene calamity of the waterfall, the 3rd Incarnation of the Hinyuudo signed the peace tready with the people of the mountains.
Though the city was in ruins, nothing of it's athmosphere was lost.
The people of the mountains however, were gone. That was sad news...

Nevertheless, the scouts would be able to return with good news. The ground was still fertile, and the water still clear. The Hitengu would be able to return to this city and rebuild it.

---------

The southern scouts:

The southern scouts spot small signs of smoke coming from the coast. Eager to see who settled on what used to be barren land, they marched westwards.

((need Zako for that. Please come unto IRC))

((There is no set visual range but considering the movement speeds, no one should be able to spot something farther than a tile away. That is, you can see into the neighboring tiles if you have an advantageous position.

Of course you can build things like observation towers to have a broader line of sight, but that takes time and is subject to RP.

Also, it is very unlikely that you know they are Hitengu unless your civ met them beforehand somehow.

Finally, Akroma, I think you just met the Hrun, they popped right in front of your scouts.))

Also, I discussed you learning magic with Istrian, and we got to an agreement that it would take about 6 turns for you to learn the most basic of magics (a single flow, and not enough to use it efficiently), then about 4 turns to learn another flow, or a few turns to get better in the flow you already know, etc... so you probably won't know much of magic for quite some time, but that's the rules...))

((I'll probably post my turn saturday))

Turn 3
Year 1, Third Month of Spring

((@krumlink : Your troop movements are not on the map because they make no sense. There is simply no way you could see that far (your distance to the Hitengu is close to 2000km).

@Kashyyk : Your western scout moved too quickly for his speed. I have pulled him back a square.

@everyone : It is not forbidden to RP in the Palace of the Gods. After all, gods are known to plot the future of mortals from their grand hall.))

In the Gaming Hall where the gods were assembled The Watcher made some arcane gestures. Above him, the board which represented the land, the cities and the armies marching was painted on the ceiling. Suddenly there was a flash and all gods averted their eyes, for the light was too intense. When it subsided, they all raised their heads and saw that the board was no longer black and white. There was now color. And The Watcher said :

"Good. Much better now. Now, anyone fancies a beer at the Drinking Hall ?"

The Palace:
Machinatus does nothing but stand in one of the darker corners of the room and occasionally quietly ask for some tea or a biscuit or two. His eyes, however, continuosly dart from one god to the other, always searching, always moving, always looking for a weakness, a flaw to utilise.

Unfortunately, I have not done turn 1 in the naming format I have finally standardized, but trust me to keep this up to date. (I may yet do turn 1, but I have movies to watch.) I will be supplying both a map with a grid and one without for the duration of the game. If anything is missing in my format, please tell me and I will most likely put it in at some point.

Both turn 2 & 3 are below.
EDIT: Turns 1,2, & 3 are below.

I will be joining as soon as my net connection allows me to be on IRC while I'm at home and Istrian is on, under the condition that it allows me to be on for long enough to iron out some details on my race. Oh well. In any case, peace.

EDIT: Maps have been redone to reflect what actually happened. Visual mechanic used for person's people in a city owned by another. Key updated for adventurers.
Misleading error 1: / instead of y for Akroma's scouts in places.
Misleading error 2: Orc scouts and river sources use same symbol. Color fixes.

((well Zako, this turn, nothing happens at my capital. The walk towards my capital takes 2 turns))


All 3 scouts groups:

Having found what they seeked, they turn to return to the city of Teiichi. The march is long, but the company is interesting. From where they are, the city of Teiichi can already be spotted at night, as it glows brightly, like a second moon. The elves already expected something of the sort, but the Hrun are most intrigued about the origin of that light.

Turn 3:Lost Chords

"Dammit all!" Roared Skeris who could not help but lose his usually calm demenour after passing the same tree for the third time. 'It has been too long since I wandered these lands' was the only thought constantly playing over in the young half-elfs head. Quite an adept woodsman, Skeris had never found himself in this situation before and did not know what to make of it. He knew the majestic flamewood elves had a large city known as Echogroth in this area but Skeris's crudely drawn map did little to solve this mystery.

Skeris did indeed hope to find the heroic elven outcasts as he had no stories, songs or legends to tell about their people in fact few bards from the south did, if he returned home with these then he could make himself a very wealthy man 'And maybe even one day a court bard, who creates heroic tales as well as regails them.' The very thought made his mouth water.

One thing Skeris did know is that he was getting close, the amount of hostile woodland creatures was thinning...Civilisation must be near by. (No move as Skeris was just wandering in circles)

((Polifar, do you know why we make a fantastic team? It’s because we INSPIRE each other.))
((For convenience, I assume Polifars last post was at the very end of the turn, so I’ll continue at the exact spot he left of.))

Turn 3: Determination.

That night the mouse did not sleep, he thought, he read, we wrote things and discard them again, and when the morning came, and the sage was confounded, he answered: “Eleven more to go” and so he jumped up before Dandalof could react and scurried of into the high grass.

The mouse ran for an hour. Never stooping or resting, until he cam to a place they had passed the day before were twelve foxes happened to make their home…

Three hours later, Dandalof found him lying on the ground outside the den bleeding heavily, around him the twelve dead canids, most of them had their eyes scratched out and one had its guts draped across the ground.
The sage proceeded to heal him whit great hurry, yet it would take days for him to heal entirely.

“It would seem you found the answerer to my question yesterday, you little fool.”
“Yes, I want to LIVE, to exist and to go on whatever happens, to BE, for bad or worse, and never have myself taken away from me. The world is filled whit danger, and the greatest danger of all in time itself, a mouse cannot stand up against this, but a mage at least has a fair chance.”
The sage looked meaningly on the mousse injuries and the dead foxes.
“This would seem a strange way to show that”
The mouse just laughed, the laugh turned into a blooded cough, and he passed out. At that moment the wizard knew he had a very good pupil.

That was the last rest the mouse got for a dozen days.

The diplomatic meeting:
After beeing greeted very warmly by representatives of the parliament, dressed in heavy robes in green and yellow, the representatives of the Hrun and the elves (not their guards) are lead into the palace.
It is mostly made of marble and glass, and heavily decorated with silver, and are highly decorated with Jasper and carnelian, gemstones set in flame-shapes.

They are lead into a dining room, where Hitengu dressed in red and orange are motioning you to sit down, on a round table, made of massive messing, decorated with lavish etchings.
You are sitting next to each other, the two representatives of the parliament around you, the last seat between them still empty.
Music from a Koto, a 13 strings zither is played, as Ranpu enters the room. She is dressed in a wide, perfectly white Kimono, with sleeves that hide her hands, decorated with elaborate flame motives. On her head is an elaborate glass crown, that is made from red, green, and even blue glass. The crown is shining from within, and the light is constantly shifting, giving the impression as if a flame of many colors is burning on her head.

"I am Ranpu, the 17th incarnation of the Hinyuudou. I welcome you to the City of Teiichi, and invite you to stay my guest as long as you want to.
I am very pleased to see the noble race of the flamewood elves still inhabit the country in the north, just as I am pleased to see new faces at this table.
Please, my dear lord, tell us everything about you, it interests me and my people very much."

Erak bows his head deeply when Ranpu appears and starts to talk:

"My name is Erak, and by bloodright and popular vote, I am chieftain of my people who are called the Hrun. We come from a different world, an ice world, transported here from yet another world much like this one. We faced a great foe in that world and we were brought here by our battle god Wotan for some reason that we don't know. This was the same for the two previous trips my kind has taken.

Our kind is, by legends, a merge between giants and humans, hence our great size and our human looks. We initially didn't know our purpose in our old ice world and the gods saw fit to give us one. Wotan, our god of battle, decided to claim us for his cause and made us what we are today. Slayers. We are a race of warfare, granted by our giant blood, and some of our people live for battle, as proven by the trophies that my brother here (Erak slaps his brother on the shoulder) can testify. Yet, because of the harsh climate and reality of our homeworld, we naturally accept other races hospitality and friendship. We have a saying; "Live together, die alone" that sums up what our experiences on our homeworld was like. I apoligize if any of this upsets you, but it was how we lived until our god decided to send us to a new world for whatever reason he wanted.

And so we arrived here in one of our great ships, the Halycon, and we set up the basics of a town when your scouts arrived and told us a bit about your kind. Thats pretty much all of interest at the moment, but we don't mind if you send some of your people to gain more of our history. We would also like to find out more about our gracious hosts' history."

In the background, some servants are scribbling down everything that is said.

"Our kind as a great interest in history, and as such, your offer is very welcome. Whenever you prepare to leave, I will send a few writers with you, to record your history."

Before the political talk starts, plates of white jade, filled with a wide array of fruits are placed in front of every person on the table, along with both a glass of water, and a glass of soem alcoholic bewerage, which seems like it was made of plums.
Ranpu flashes a fan made of white jade and red silk, and uses it to conseal her mouth while she eats with the other.

The Hrun pick up the chopsticks and look at them. In their hands, they are little more than spliters to them and the two misia give each other a look asking what they are used for. Erak simply looks at how the others eat and copies them easily while the misia struggle with doing this. They resort to stabbing the fruit, much to the meriment of Erak and all who are watching.


After eating, which was filled with animous chat between the parliamentarians and the guests, Ranpu again raises her voice, and the servants clear the table.
Maps are spread on the table, one area on it colored in a bright yellow.

btw Armok, if I remember correctly, Istrian was clear on how long it would take you to do magic. Right now, you are still magic-less.
A single mouse, killing 12 foxes, with it's teeth, or what ?
Don't start building a gigantic compters fueled by souls next turn....

Not only that, you will never meet 12 Foxes on one point. At max 8 - One Vixxen with up to 6 cubs and one Aunt/Sister from an prior litter. Its true that foxes life in Families but on average the members of an "family" meet twice a day for some minutes.

Oh and guess whats the Main-prey of an Fox - yes mice and other small rodents. An mouse fighting and killing an Fox is like an lone guy with an knife winning against Godzilla.

That's the point, it was an impossible display of courage, willpower, resourcefulness, and a whole bunch of pure luck.
The "man whit knife vs Godzilla" is pretty much it, maybe more like a man whit a knife against 12 tyrannosaurus.
Edit; ((and yes, I that many foxes dosnt make sense biologically, but it was needed for poetic symmetry or some other elfy concept.))

Turn 4, turn 1 for the giants.

The arrival

A storm was raging in the mountains. As it was moving over the mountains, it only seemed to strengthen, and showed no signs of weakening.
Just as the storm was reaching the apex of its power, it began to shrink in rapidly, soon being only a few kilometres wide.
The effect after this could be described as if the storm had turned into a liquid of energy and clouds, falling down a funnel into the ground.
As the weather cleared, there were 80 large shapes standing where the storm had been funneled.

Hrafn let out a cough and hammered his fist into his chest. *THUMP*
The pleasantries to Ukko were committed. It was like thanking for a good ride.
"Atleast he put more effort into it this time..." Hrafn muttered.
"Enough fooling around, get those lazy backs of yours into work! We need to start building anew. Hrafngard will rise in those cliffs!" pointing to the nearby cliff. It had a small waterfall falling from it. A mere brook but still a nice sight.

As soon as these orders were given, Hrafn turned to three of the giants. They were clad in fur and each had an old steel sword.
"I assume you three are ready. You're the best hunters around, so i will send you ahead to scout our surroundings. It would be naive to assume we're alone in this world"

All necessary orders were given, and Hrafn could turn around. In the distance, a high mountain loomed over the rockyhills, as the final mountain of the range. There, would rise the new Castle Hrafngard.

Summary:

-3 scouts are sent out in different directions. They are experienced woodsmen, but are still giants so they dont care much about stealth.
-the rest of the giants begin building Hrafngard anew.

Damn. I'm so stupid, why the hell didn't I think of that before??? I'll get on to it next turn!

Man, I can already imagine the giants laughing at a puny talking mouse, only to realise that that mouse is wielding a huge flamming broadsword... :P

The Giant scouts advanced through unknown forests, their footsteps making the ground shake. Not minding the falling trees, nor any of the other obstacles that were unworthy of their attention, they moved forward, seeking whatever civilizations that could live in this new land. In multiple places they were spotted by elven engineers, who pulled back to their city while keeping hidden from the giants' sight.

Turn 5
Year 1, First Month of Summer

((@krumlink : you have been inactive for 3 turns, your civ will be left as NPCs until you return, unless someone reaches them or a new civ claims the spot they occupy, in which case they will be removed from the map.

@Emperor_Jonathan : you don't get pop support from tiles that already give support to another player's city, unless the player agrees.

@everyone : you are highly encouraged to name geographic features however you see fit. Battles (and other encounters) can be handled in two ways. One way is the players involved PM me their strategies and I decide the outcome of the enounter. The other requires all involved players to be on IRC at the same time as the GM and will give place to real-time battles. Of course to preserve equality, if one of the players cannot make it to IRC, the event will be handled via PM strategies.

Also, please keep lists of your population and popcaps.))

Turn 5.

At Hrafngard

The new Hrafngard was rising steadily, and already the early stage of the temple for the storm god had risen. It was still just large longhouse with a hole in the roof for the smoke, but allthesame, it was a temple. The beginning of the summer had drawn most of the giants in to the temple festhall, and the feast was on.

*A loud drunken laugh* "Hear me! Hear!"
A particularly large and ferocious looking giant had risen on the table, waving his tankard around.
"As a honoring to our first summer in this world, fellow Jötuns, I suggest a great hunting party! I shall collect the 15 best of ye, and we will go in to the western and southern forests, in a look for worthy prey!"
There was a general shout of approval and waving of weapons, for suggestions like these were always popular. Besides, the hammers had been in less use lately.

Hrafn was not as deep in his cups as most of the giants in the festhall, and was discussing something with his second in charge.
"Ingvarr, we need to establish a more firm presence here. I have a feeling that holing up in Hrafngard wont be the choice of winners, as such, im ordering you to take 20 of the giants here and establish a fortress by the river. And build roads, moving in woods isnt exactly our ace"

The scouts

((Empty for now, ill see what heph does first.))

Summary:
-A new town, or rather a small fortress, is established west of Hrafngard.
Its name is Björnholm Keep.
-A hunting party of 15 leaves Hrafngard to southwest

Pops.
Hrafngard: 48

((Polifar you'll have to do RP this turn because everything I write something istrian seems to disagree.))
((they is my mouse holding the sword in it's mouth? one of the main reasons I chose a rodent is that they have semi-hand like forepaws and can grip objects decently.))
((maybe I should do some pictures like Akroma... but don't take that as a promise))

Name: Hasuin the Traveller
Location: 05, 20.
Species: Human
This particular 'Human' is more akin to a talking ape. While considered very smart in his nomadic tribe, to the outside world there is much to be desired. Hasuin has left his tribe to fulfill his expectations and bring back the skull of a titan.
Favoured travel: Desert, plain.
Disfavoured travel: Rainforest.
Items: Glumprong club, magically hardened by the tribes sage. Light clothes designed for hot climates, with little armour. Bone helmet.


Question: How do adventurers influence civs and vice versa?

Coran looked up from the message the falcon just brought.
"As second in command and while Briar is on diplomatic mission i order to assemble the troops. 5 Didecaden and 10 Man. Get the wolves and the Wyverns. Send Falcons back to scouts they shall move next to the city and wait there. "
"Mylord? What happend shall i inform the Council?" asked the Chamber guard.
"Yes do that... tell them there is an Raidgroup in our Territorys. The describtion says there are Giants of some sort. If you are at it anyway send an Falcon to Briar as chief of the Military he needs to be informed too. Maybe he can assemble some support troops from the hitengu when the hells break loose. "

((Emperor_Jonathan : yes, as your city has moved only on tiles farmed by another civ, your popcap for that city drops to 0. You lose 15% of your population during any turn your city's population is above its popcap, unless you manage to get food from Kashyyk.

Note, the rule of 15% population lost each turn when the population of a city is higher than the popcap for that city applies to everyone.))

After a month long walk through the rough wilderness of Tenrai Minzoku, the group of settlers finaly made it of the edge of the forest, to the cliffface of the mountains.
There they were, the ruins of Kawareidou, the river-mother, the ancient capital under the waterfall.
No other city was so full of history, and so pregnant of future history as Kawareidou. It was here, where the Hitengu signed the very first peacecontract with anyone, and it was here were the last battle was fought before they went into hiding. It was here were the incarnations of the Hinyuudou are laid for rest, and most importantly, this was the very place at which Tomoshibi created the very first generation of the Hitengu.

The city was laid under and in a cliff face, the lowest of the houses and the highest of the houses having more than 700 meters in height differences. Hundreds of bridges and dwindling stairways connected the houses, right next to the countless cherry-trees whichs roots were anchored directly in the rock. These cherry trees were a gift of Tomoshibi. During the reign of the 9th Hinyuudou, an earthquake almost destroyed the cliff. Tomoshibi went to save his people, and in a pact between him and the Hitengu, he planted the cherry trees inside the cliff. As long as these trees are here, the cliff would never break and not a single rock should come loose from it.

At the peak of the cliff was the spring of the waterfall, surrounded by a cave whichs ceiling collapsed, making it look like the inside of a tea-pot. Thus, the mountain was called Daitihachi (great teapot)

I am sorry I have not been here. I lost my net connection at my house, my image resources are at home, and I have no copies on the web, and this is my first time on the web since mine went down. I'll get back to the mapping as soon as I get my net back at home. Since the location I have acquired net at requires me to pay by the hour, I gotta be short with everything, so cya!

Peace, Devath.

The Watcher approached Katyn, goddess of the Katytans, who was apparently struggling in the constant light of the Palace.
"I see you have a bit of trouble there." it said "It is a problem we need to solve, isn't it ?" it added, not waiting for an answer.
The Watcher produced a pair of sunglasses from the recesses of its robe and placed them in Katyn's hands. Then it left towards another group of gods who had not yet taken part in the game below.

Turn 7
Year 1, Third Month of Summer

((@Emperor_Jonathan : There is a problem with your population and your popcaps. Your southernmost city should have had a popcap of 0 on previous turn, and this turn as well (orc territory), unless Kashyyk granted you food, a fact I haven't been warned of. So, your population in that city should have been reduced by at least a hundred people.

Your central city has been on high mountains on the previous turn, according to your pop support it's popcap should have been 70, so it lost 15% of its people on turn 6. Please correct your populations for these two cities and keep accurate popcaps for all three.

@Heph & Nhiphanter : Each of you has a group on the same tile, please resolve the meeting before moving this turn.))

You forgot the # before the botg. Its /join #botg dwarf.

My previous two turns:

Turn 5: Nothing much, just smelting some iron, building forces and construction. The palisade is finished.

Turn 6: The training of the military is finished. A stone wall is under construction outside the palisade. (15m high) Erak and the two misia hear of a competition called hikaitai and are invited. They accept, curious about magic.

Turn 7: More military training and building. Focus is on great hall and the stone wall. (Akroma needs to post about the competition.)

After another long day in the library Danalof sighed to himself. It would take longer than a single mages life to go through all of these books, novels, scientific reports and even diaries...
Looking out of the window, he noticed night has fallen already.
Danalof motioned his mouse-companion that it was time to head home, but Kcirph was too determined to leave his studies. He would spent the night here, reading in the light of the countless glass-bubbles that illuminated the walls of books.
The city is still bustling with activity. Though the moon clearly indicated it was almost midnight, in a city with that much light, that doesn't matter much
Hading home, Danalof couldn't help but notice bright flashes of light coming from a clearing, and children loudly shouting.
He founda couple of kids holding glass-orbs. Extending from the orbs were streams of light, that bent and twisted like snakes. They seemed to be having a match. Other kids who were not involved were loudly cheering.
They appeared to be amateurs. Often they lost concentration, and the stream of light broke, or moved into the wrong direction. Danalof felt himself reminded of his youth, and nostalgia was washing over him.
He transmuted something into candy, and offered it to the children. No one in Tenrai Minzoku ever tells their kids about strangers and candy, so the kids gladly accepted it.
One of the kids seemed to recognize Danalof

"Oh, you are the geezer who moved in with Kouta. You are lucky. His wife makes the best peach cake."
Danalof, half laughing, "Why yes, I am exactly that 'geezer'. So I see you are training hard. Are you going to participate in this contest of yours... whats its name..."

"Hitaikai. But we can't participate yet anyway. If you want in, you have first to pass a test to prove you have everything under controle alright. So you don't accidently hurt someone"

"Ahh, I see. Well I'm sure you'll someday be great users and enter this contest. Can I watch while you train?"

"Sure you can. It is my turn once these two are finished. One day I will become a great champion, just like Uchiwakamaru !"
The kids eyes were burning with resolve.

A loud scream was heard, and Danalof was reminded of the fight going on. One of the kids was lying on the ground, holding his nose. Seems like he was hit rather hard.
Danalof, concerned of what just happened, ran to the kid, already transmuting bandages, but it appeared the kid was fine.

"What happened, my boy ?"

 "NOTHING. I just had something in the eye alright ?!" Rather pissed, the kid left.Danalof turns to the other, "So, do such injuries occur regularly?"

"Don't worry, this is nothing, just a red stream on his forehead. In the test for the tournament, they make you hit an egg 120 times, and it must not break or even get a tiny crack. Nobody in the hitaikai gets hurt. And now, it is my turn. Wish me luck, geezer"

"Good luck kid"

With enthiusasm, the kids got ready to battle. Rather clumsily, but eager, they let the snakes of light dance around like whips. The fight continued on for at least a few minutes without a clear superior, until the kid who took the candy was hit hard between the rips. The winner shouted.
"Got you ! Next one please."
But the other kid was not making space for the next match. Looking at his face, Danalof could see his anger and his hand tightly clutching the glass-sphere. He immediatly knew that this was not going to end well
Danalof ran to stop him but before you could reach him, the kid let a stream of light latch out, far stronger than the ones used before. In a reflex,  Danalof used some windmagic to push the other child away

Just in time. The stream of light hit a tree behind him, shaking it violently
With a loud "thunk",someone fell out of the tree. Danalof was not entirely sure, but by the look of it, his next must have been broken, and he was not moving...

As he ran towards the person to see if he could do anything, Danalof recognized him. It was Uchiwakamaru. As he kneelt down to heal him, Danalof noticed a strange sound.

 ...

is he ?

he couldn't be ?

snoring ?

...

 Danalof burst out laughing.

Despite the rather awkward upside-down position Uchiwaka seemed to be sleeping deeply and didn't even bother that he fell at least 6 meters head first..

"Ah, what a peculiar person. I think that there is no problem in leaving him here undisturbed. But then again..."
Danalof moved the sleeping idiot and shook him, "Uchiwakameru? Can you wake up?"

Snoring

 Danalof put his mouth to Uchiwaka's ear and shouted, at the top of his lungs, "WAKE UP!"
Uchiwakamaru opened his eyes wide. The balance on his neck, that held him up perfectly up till now broke, and he fell on the ground, making no motion at catching himself.
Danalof, untroubled by the strange scene asked:"Good day. Might I ask what you were doing up there?"

Uchiwakasmaru was holding perfectly still. Only his eyes were moving around, perplexed.
Danalof:"Um, hello?"
Only now, he seemed to be realising the mages presence.

"Ahh. Wanderer. Can you help me, I appear to be lost. Tell me, why am I lieing upside down on the ground ?"

"That would be fixed if you just stood up."

"Words of true wisdom !", said Uchiwaka, dusting himself off.

"Yes, I know. I am not called 'sage' for no reason"
But Uchiwaka was ignoring him again. Lost in thought, he watched the sky.
"Such a dark morning..."

"Well, Uchiwakamaru, what were you doing on that tree? Watching the kids train I presume?"
Not listening to Danalofs question, Uchiwaka turned to him.

"Dark clouds are covering the morning with impenetrable darkness. Danalof, what is this evil scheme ? Are the forces of darkness attacking the world ?"

"Well, it MIGHT be because.. you know... its still nighttime..."

"Nightime ?! Still ?! Oh woe is me, what have we done to disgruntle the sun so....I KNOW! I will go on a journey to the edge of the world itself, and talk to the sun, so she may shine above us again!"
Without any  sign of hesitation, Uchiwaka ruan eastwards, at a speed that was almost hard to comprehend.
"How ...about we just wait... a few hours... for it to rise alone...?STOP !"
Chasing after him, Danalof had to search for a bit, because he lost sight of Uchiwaka. Turning around a few corners, he found him again, lieing right on the middle of a busy street. Asleep.
Danalof shook him awake again...
Uchiwakamaru opened his eyes, looking at Danalof angrily.

"Stop running around like that, you could get hurt!"

"Hey, don't you know it is a deed most foul to awake the ones who seek sleep ?"

Without any further word, Uchiwaka turned around, and continued sleeping.

The battlegroup of orcs moved out of the capital, seeking the trail of the Erithreans who went by a few months before. After turning in circles they found no trail they could follow and headed back to the city.

((@new players : feel free to not answer other players who ask for your civ's weaknesses, these things should only be known of the GM and the controlling player. The others will have to find out in the battlefield.

@Pandarsenic : you are approved.))

((Edited RP from turn 7))




"My lady. We have just received these new via light-signs. It is very urgent."

The servant handed a sheet or paper to Ranpu, who almost dropped from her seat when she read it's contents. It was a pledge of assistance coming from the flamewood elves. Their northern borders were under attack by a force of evil.
8 months. Only 8 months since they left hiding, and the shadow of war was already lurking. What was this world coming to ?

"Please deliver the message. Tomorrow at noon, I will meet with the parliament, to decide on this case."


-----tomorrow at noon------

"My dear parliament, I have gathered you here in a matter most urgent. As we speak, the borders of our close friends, the Elves of Flamewood, are under attack by a force of evil. Countless of people will die painfully in this battle. I am therefor, asking for your approval to form a group of 50 or more healers, so we may relieve the pain of the wounded."


And old parliamentarian rose:
"There will be no such thing. Tenrai Minzoku has always remained neutral, and will remain neutral. THis is not our war, and we hold no formal obligation to send the elves any help. You have seen the way the elves first reacted to out scouts when we met them. It is likely it was the elves who started this war to begin with!"

another politician sprung up:
"Yes, we have seen that. Now what do you think how the elves will react if we deny them our help? It would ruin our friendship with them. Once they have repelled this "force of evil", they will come back to you, and might no longer deem us worthy to be their friends."

"And what if the elves lose in this conflict? If this force is as evil as described, then it will surely not forgive us, who have helped their enemy. Sending out healers to assist the elves is entirely unthinkable!"

The head of the parliament was hitting his desk with a hammer, calling for silence, but he was entirely ignored. Soon the parliament was only shouting loudly in all directions.

"The frontlines are no place for a Hitengu. We can not put our people into danger!"

"Can't we just provide them with rations and other materials ana rmy needs ? Surely that will be enough."

"The Hitengu going to war again ? Is that now why we left the picture to begin with ?!"

Ranpu saw her ambitions drown in desperation, as the parliament was drowning in loud voices. A bright flash from her crown eluminated the room, and it was silent again.


"As you argue here, in this house that is so far away from the suffering, so far away from any danger, our friends are dying as they protect their homeland. We can NOT waste any more time on this decision, else all of us would be just as guilty as those that take part in this atrocity. We have to vote now. Now, and not tomorrow, or in a week, or when the war is already over."

A guilty silence went through the ranks. The head of the parliament coughed, and then spoke:

"Our majesty is right. This matter is too urgent to be discussed in every detail. I will now collect the votes. Make up your mind quickly."


The assistant of the parliament, a man with a rather big forehead, and weird sunglasses that were strapped around his ears went through the ranks, collecting the votes of the parliament. It only took half an hour to count them.

73 votes against sending healers

23 votes for sending healers

and 14 that did not vote.


Ranpu's face was showing clear signs of frustration, hough her voice remained clear.

"Fine then. It seems this parliament is a lot colder than it should be. If you will not allow an offical group of healers to be send, then I will go and gather volunteers. Maybe some people on the streets still know what it means to help a friend in need."

Not looking back, she stormed out of the parliament, slamming the door behind her.



-------only minutes after the meeting-------

Shortly after this debacle, Kenta, the assistant with the sun glasses, was meeting with Kazoku, the small woman from the incense school.

"I fear that the elves might need more assistance than our parliament is open to admit... I am bound here by my duties. But you are not. Please join the volunteers, and head towards the border. Keep a low profile, if anyone sees you actively fighting at the front-lines, then our cover will be blown. Stay hidden and assist them from afar, as would be your speciality. And most importantly, don't tell Uchiwakamaru about this...god knows what he would do..."

Without turning her head, Kazoku only nodded. This was her duty. She was nervous, yes, even afraid, but if she was not going to help, who else will ?

A group of 26 volunteers head towards echogroth. With them, they bring food rations, medical herbs, and other medical supplies.

((@everyone : There is no need to reserve posts if you think you aren't going to do anything for the turn. These won't be filled anyway as far as I noticed and only clutter the thread. Just make sure I know you are still active (for example by answering the PM I send to players who have been inactive for 3 turns. The only required thing is that you post your moves before a turn ends else they won't be counted and you won't be able to move retroactively unless you had a good reason for missing the turn.

@Pandarsenic : For rare/civ unique resources take a look at the FAQ. The available amount is mostly up to the player. If the source of the resource is overused I will make sure to warn about the impending exhaustion of said resource.

A bit of clarification on how Divine Intervention works. You can intervene in the mortal world using your spheres. When you use a DI linked to a sphere you have a cooldown time before you can use that sphere again for DI. The cooldown time is decided by the GM, depending on the magnitude of the DI. Some (powerful) DI will also require some time to prepare. In any case, whenever you want to use a DI, ask the GM.

Turn 9
Year 1, First Month of Autumn

As the last days of summer go by, taking with them the last heat of the year, dead leaves begin to fall and a strong wind rises from the west. Dark clouds forecasting violent storms are on the way and most would do well to prepare for their arrival, or the incoming winter's snow might become a white grave for the living.

((This month, the only important event is the Hitakai. Thus, it shall be the only thing mentioned.))

Hitakai Semi-Final, on the Island Arena, in Teichi (Refer to Istrian's post for quarter-final and Akorma's post below for the final)

Danalof wipes his brow. It had been some time since he had fought in a magical battle, and had forgotten how tiring they could be. Besides, he wasn't exactly in his best years. After helping Kouta of the island, he returned and awaited his next oponent.

A thin sunglasses-wearing Hitengu stepped on the island. Kenta. If Danalof didn't know any better, he might have thought the battle against this person would be an easy win. But he remembered seeing him with Uchiwakamaru's group, which meant that he was probably a strong light-magic user, as was Kouta. Never underestimate an oponent.

As soon as the Watcher declared the match started, Danalof summoned a protective barrier of light between himself and his oponent. He didn't know what tactic Kenta would use, so he wasn't taking any chances.

Kenta raises his orb, and from it start emanating random disco-like lights. Danalof wasn't impressed, and quite easily dispelled these meager distractions before they could confuse or blind him. But Kenta didn't seem phased, and continued moving around Danalof making weird gestures, ending his weird pattern of gestures with a twitch of a finger.

"... ... ... Damn!" Thought Danalof, as the situation slowly rose to him. He could feel small transaprent dots smelling of light magic dispersed on the ground, which had been placed there without him noticing. Kenta was obviously setting a trap, and Danalof was right in the middle of it! But the sage doubted that Kenta had accounted for the possiblity of his opponent getting of the island before the trap sprung. In a fast movement, Danalof tipped over his light barrier and jumped onto it, effectively using it as a flying carpet of pure light energy to fly above Kenta's head and stop about 8m above the water's surface, just next to the island arena. As he did so, one of the small dots shot a beam of light towards him, but luckily only hit the underside of the flying carpet/barrier of light.

Kenta didn't let his surprise and dissapointment at this turn of events paralize him for long. After a few more gestures, all the placed dots started shooting towards Danalof. It was like a rain of light, machine gun fire of laser beams. There were 10 dots in total, all shooting burst after burst at Danalof. But that didn't slow the mage. Expertly maneuvering his flying carpet, he managed to slip through the curtain of fired shots barely being grazed by one or two shots.

And as if flying through a hail of light-speed bullets of light wasn't enough, Danalof managed to redirect the flows of magic in two of the dots to severe their connection with Kenta, thus leaving only 8 dots at his disposal.

At this point, the two oponents decided that a rain of machine gun shots and flying carpets weren't extreme enough. Kenta swirled all the 8 dots under his control off the ground and formed a circlet with them. Danalof joined his hands and summoned basic elemtental sentience into a sphere. Then, at the same instant, both combatants attacked with their most powerful attacks. Danalof hurled a seeking elemtental light-bomb at the same time Kenta's circlet shot a single huge beam.

In two simultaneous blasts of light, both were hit square-on, but as the judges had not yet decided that the match was over, probably because they were awstruck by the epicness, the battle raged on. This time, Kenta didn't miss a beat and seperated the circlet into three parts, each shooting a medium beam, and knowing that Danalof had almost no chance to dodge all three of them. Danalof, knowing that if even one beam hit him, the Watcher would most likely end this match, stood firm on his light-carpet until an instant before the light beams hit him. At that point, he simply dissipated his light carpet, and fell towards the water with the light beams zapping a mere inches above him. To annoy Kenta even more, Danalof spun in mid air and hurled another seeking ball at his opponent.

Sadly, this epic dodge wasn't mimicked by his fall. Instead of an epic dive the audience had probably hoped for, Danalof hit the water face-first, in such an awkward way that even the Watcher had to chuckle among the aundience's roars of laughter. Even worse, the hurled ball missed its mark. What did Danalof expect, trying to hit a target 20m away while falling through air?

Now, was Danalof's time to truly shine. After having mocked his oponents every attack in spectacular ways (his epically failed dive not counting :P) Danalof did what any sane person would do if he had magical powers of light and was in water: He created a surfboard. Made of pure light.

But Kenta was not going to let the old man get away like that so easily. He reconnected the dots, and formed a blade of light above the water's surface, right in Danalof's way.

But that didn't stop Danalof. Oh no, it didn't. The Gods of the Coast must have been smiling at the sage that day, or maybe he was just so hard-core that surf came naturally to him. The old man LEPT over the blade, did an epic 360 backflip and landed perfectly on a huge wave, then riding the wave, waved to the cheering crowd. The Watcher was already saying, "I think, dear judges, the winner of this contest is Danalof", even before Kenta was officially beaten. But that didn't matter, as Danalof's seeking ball of light that had missed a few moments ago came turning back and blew right into Kenta's back. How's THAT for an epic win!

And thus, Danalof became the first foreigner to ever reach such a high rank in the Hitengu's contest, now officially qualified for the finals. All that was left, was to confront Uchiwakamaru himself. Danalof knew he didn't have much chance of beating the Hitengu's general, but he didn't care. He was GOD of the BEACH now, MASTER of the WAVES. He felt young again, and as he had done so many times in his youth, was about to throw his best and try to humilitate his opponent as much as possible.

((This fight is part 3 of 3. For part 1, see Istrians post. For part 2, poltifars))


As the watcher was about to start the last match, no one wass to be seen. The crowd wass already getting impatient, as the sound of a flute was heard.

On top of the highest tree, Uchiwakamaru is standing. As additonal battle attire, he was wearing a helmet...or rather an old iron mask, which depicted a demon face, sitting in his head like a normal hat would. Attacjed to it was a light pink cape, which covered his hair.

The voices of the sky and the earth and the sea entwine and call for help, as the honor of the Hitengu is sullied by your unrighteous victory over our best men!
It is I, the gift of god to man, who has come forth to repel the forces of evil."

Danalof couldn't help himself but chuckle lightly.

Uchiwakamaru jumped down from the tree, and shortly before hitting the water, he slowed down and landed on it. Instead of falling down and sinking, he just stood on it, circular waves expanding from him. Danalof was not entirely sure what to think of it, it was a mystery.

"Now then, let us dance"
In a exxagerated motion, Uchiwaka drew his flute from his belt, and held it in position like a sword. A blade of green-yellowish light expanded from it.
As suddenly, the blade flickered

Flickered

Disappeared

"Wait..what ?"
Confused, Uchiwaka shook his flute.

"Oh forsaken !"
Stil on the water, Uchiwakamaru sat down, and bowed.
"You win. You find me unarmed"

"What now, then? We can't just leave the spectators down, and I will not accept you ending this battle without a fight."

Walking over the water like it was nothing, Uchiwaka approached the island.
"Well...we could continue, if you insist.But are you really ready ?"

One of the judges apruptly awoke from sleep.
"I'm ready, its not like it is some kind of fight to the death. And I'lm honored to fight such a great and powerful warrior as you."

The watcher angrily intercepted:"Hey, you two. Are you done ?

Not minding the angry old man,Uchiwakamaru jumped about 5 meters back in a single jump, and took a rather weird fighting stance.

"Come"

Danalof started forming 2 light balls in his hands, as Uchiwaka already reached him. His speed was unfathomable, like his legs were propelled by rockets
In a swift motion, he extended a blade from his right shoe, aimed directly at the mages neck. Luckily for Danalof, such a short distance meant a point-blank shot for his light balls. Unluckily for Danalof, such a close distance also meant that the explosion also hit himself rather harshly. The explosion made the two contestants drift apart slightly, so Uchiwakas shoe-blade just slightly missed the mage. But not missing any second, Uchiwaka let out a burst of light from the side of his shoe, propelling the blade right across the mages face. Taken back by this rather unexpected speed, Danalof took a few steps back to recompose himself. There was a red line on his face, similar to a sunburn. He thought to himself: Hmm, if he likes close quarters so much, then I have just the thing for him"

As Uchiwaka was approaching for the next attack, snakes of light engulfed his legs. They were pulsating eerily.

"Kaboom."

Uchiwakas eyes opened wide in shock. He wouldn't ?
"Shit!"

A bright explosion blinded the spectators. What followed made the hands of concerned mothers blind their children. To escape the explosion, Uchiwaka used his light-shoes to propel himself out of his pants. Luckily, he was still wearing undeprants, else the tournament might have ended right here.
Uchiwaka feel on his knees, the still smoking remains of his pants in his hands.

Danalof couldn't help himself, he just could not attack this man. Not now...

"This...this was my only pair..."

Anger flashed in his eyes, and in a swift movement, Uchiwaka moved in to kick Danalof. Not a second to late, he just barely managed to get up a barrier. But Uchiwaka did not stop a second. Using the barrier like a step-ladder, Uchiwaka climbed over and behind Danalof, ramming his shoe blade into his back. As he was still recovering from the blow, Uchwakas second shoe ensnared Danalofs leg like a snake. In a motion that seemed almost like a breakdance move, Uchiwaka threw him right into the lake.

From the surface of the water broke yet another ball of light, aimed directly at Uchiwaka. This was too easy. Drawing his flute, that needed a recharge, from his belt, Uchiwaka prepared to absorb the blow.
Except he didn't

A strong explosion threw him on his back.


"END!" screamed the watcher.

Laying on his back, Ichiwaka took a look at his flute to determine what went wrong. When he noticed, he chuckled to himself.
"Upside down....damn...."

Danalof emerged from the water, ready to bathe in the cheers of the audience. But all his water filled ears could hear was:

WAKA! WAkA! WAkA!
The audience had chosen.



---------------aftermath---------------------


*poke*


*poke*


"You know Uchiwakamaru, I would be able to mend your pants much faster if you stopped poking me with your flute over and over...."

*poke*

"Never."


*poke*


"Ouch!"

For what must have been the 5th time, Danalof had stung himself with the needle. He had offered Uchiwaka to mend the pants with magic, but Uchiwaka would hear nothing of it.

Year 1, Second Month of Autumn

Wind's rage intensify and dark clouds begin to cover the mountains to the east. Thunder frequently hits the highest peaks, causing rockfall and other avalanches. Is it the will of the gods ? Or perhaps the will of this world, unhappy as it is with the Battle of the Gods.

After the trouble of the Hitaikai, which indicated Hitenguan new years eve, Tenrai Minzoku makes a further step to return to it's former glory. The parliament as well as the priesthood embarks to move their facilities and personel to Kawareidou, making it the proper capital it once was. With them 200 people are coming.
Another 300 embark westwards, towards the coast.
Light messenges are send to the Hrun and the flamewood elves, so everyone is informed of that movement.

Turn 10: Danalof rests after the contest, repairs Uchiwaka's pants, and prepares to continue on his journey. He hopes he would someday return to the Hitengu's city, but can't be sure of that.

Just as he was about to leave, Kcirph whispers from his hat, "Why are we leaving? This place seemed very good for us to stay in..."

Danalof didn't now himself wasn't sure. "We musn't get too attached to a single place."

"Why?"

"Well... I wouldn't be the 'Wandering Sage' if I didnt wander around!"

"Still, what purpose does that wandering have? Wouldnt you prefer to stay here, were you have limitless new knowledge to study, great potential from the people to learn, and alot of possible ways you can improve their lives?"

Thus, Danalof was convinced to stay. He didn't really need much convincing anyways...

His asking for some land was met with great enthusiasm from the Hitengu to provide some for him. He was given some land on the border of the forests, were he could enjoy peace and quiet. There, he started building a stone building with the help of some Hitengu workers. He made a living by curing people's illnesses and healing them, as well as occasionally teaching children about a variety of subjects. (Not magic, as the Hitengu didn't want to learn his version of magic.)

The first battle between the Stormgiants and the elves of flamewood

Kazokus perspective.


Kazoku was unprepared for the upcoming battle. She had heared the elves talking, they would land a suprise attack on the giants by night. Her conscience pleaded her to stay here and treat the wounded soon to come, but her duty was elsewhere. There was more than one way to save the lives of the elves.

Flying after the troops at a short distance, Kazoku saw the lights of the giant camp. Not wanting to accidently give anything away, she landed and climbed into some nearby trees. There was no time to lose. Closing her eyes, she started a rythmic dance. Her fan, almost as big as she herself began spinning around her hands, as she slowly extracted light from her glass orb. Flowing out like syrup flowing through water, a thick, formless strand of light poured forth, and soon began to grow. As Kazoku began to spread out the limbs of her puppet, sounds of the battlefield announced the beginning of the slaughter.
A loud crash occured right next to her trees, and Kazoku lost concentration. A wyvern had been shot by an arrow almost as big as a small tree. The mount had fallen, and crushed his rider under it. Kazoku was gagging painfully at the brutal sight, but pulled herself together. She had time to vomit later. Now, lives were on the line.

Again, this time much faster, she began forming her puppet.
--------------------------

The battle was raging at full heat right now. Death was in the air, mixed with the sweet scent of blood and the screams of cruel voices. Many nmore scream were added when from the nearby trees, a creature broke out. It's body made of a blue burning flame, it's claws formed to kill, it's ine tails raging through the air like the throats of a multi-headed dragon. A terrible fox, known as the kyuubi in legends was running towards the battlefield. Many giants dropped their jaws, others even their weapons and turned to flee. In a giant leap, the biest jumped into the massacre, biting away at the giants. The jaws were not very powerful, the flame not even hot, but despite that, the giants were terrified. Their hammers and swords, their bolts and their fists, nothing would reach the beast. The hits were just passing through. Was it..invulnerable ?
But their spirit was soon refueled, as a terrible howl was heared from their midst. It was Hrafn, riding on his wolf mount, who had taken the challenge of the ninetailed beast.

It was then, that Kazoku lost controle.

A pillar of light had burst from the dark clouds, and were it touched the ground, flowers sprung forth. The light engulfed the beast, and soon was absorbed by it. The blue glow of it's flames became almost unbearable blinding. Slowly, it began to circle Hrafn. With ech step, flowers sprung forth from the ground, only to be turned into ashes seconds later. Balls of flame began to circle Hrafn and the Kyuubi, spinning faster and faster, and soon they spun so fast they were as good as a solid wall of fire.

A leap fast and furious, and the fox had the giant by his throat, pushing him down from his mound. The thick armor around Hrafns neck prevented the worst, but the strength of the flaming beasts jaw had bent the iron and entrapped his throat, making Hrafn gag and give his best to free himself. A claw made of fire was set on Hrafn chest, and claws like daggers simply sunk through the iron as though it was wet paper. They dug in deep, and Hrafn was almost done for, as the ninetail was pulled away. Hrafns warmount, a wolf of enormous size and of divine origin and biten the flaming beasts hindleg, and hurled it away, almost ripping the leg off.

http://i38.tinypic.com/357kf9l.png

With a sound that no language could properly describe, the two titans clashed. The tails of the fox flailed wildly, as the behemoths theeth crashed into his fiery throat. The fire of the divine beast charred it's mouth, but never would this warmount give in to even the worst pain. It would never let go of that throat. The Kyuubi clawed and slashed aat it's captors face with knifes of fire, turning it's head into a bloody mess, but the steel grip of those terrible theeth only strengthened.
Meanwhile, Hrafn was back on his legs. Blood was flowing out of his mouth into his beard, merging with the blood of a thousand victims. A move like between hammer and amboss, Hrafn swung his holy hammer, and the Kyuubi was felled. It's flesh broke apart like sand, and vanished with the winds, leaving nothing but bones made of pure light, which soon crumbled as well.
Hrafn swung himself unto his wolf with the last of his strength, coughing up another wave of dark red blood. For him, the battle was over. Using the last of it's strength, he and his warmount broke through the barrier of fire anf fled the battlefield.

--------------------------------

The settlers who went westwards arrive at a nice spot on the coast. They call this place Migurabara, the great view over the ocean.

The group of migrants that moved to Kawareidou arrive.

Kazoku was brooding eerily over the events of the last battle. Tomoshibi itself had intervened in it, in the form of the nine tailed beast. But yet, the leader of the giants was still alive. If not even an incarnation of Tomoshibi was able to kill him, then how would the elves be able to do so ?
No, they would never be able to win.
Sooner or later, flamewood would crumble.

The very same night, she left the border, she had to warn the Hitengu, so they might prepare. It was time for the incense to burn.

Soon after she left the encampment, she gave a light signal for Teiichi. Kouta would have to head towards Kawareidou as well, if they were goind to prepare properly.

Istrian told me that Heph asked me to take over his civ. But I have no intentions of doing so. I will only specify one action: They are building defences and training soldiers. They will be ready when Nhip is coming for them, and will not go down without a fight.

Zako, you have 100 of your soldiers in Hephs territory. Feel free to take command over Hephs military and fight the giants, should you want to do so.

Turn 10.

((missed turns, just pops in this one.))

Hrafngard: 32
Björnholm keep: 8

Turn 11.

The battle of flamewood

Eiríkr was one of the first to hear the sounds of battle beginning at night, as some of the giants were asleep but most were still telling stories around campfires.
He stood up, girded his belt and scabbard of his sword on him, and donned his mask. Hrafn was sure to call forth his elite guard in anymoment now. He hefted his two-handed sword on his hand and smiled faintly. For one month now only one sentence had been on the giants lips, "Why are we NOT KILLING YET?!".
Who would have guessed the fight would come to them, and not them coming to the fight.
Around the camp, the other giants were waking up for the fight, grabbing their weapons and donning their armors on them. They had been yerning too long for a fight bynow to be surprised by a simple night attack.
He could see in a distance flying figures shooting arrows at some giants, only to get barraged by a heavy crossbow fire from the giants, he counted 12 of the things dropping down. After the barrages had been switched, 40 of the flying elves charged towards a group of the giants.
Eiríkr didnt stay to watch, but made haste towards the battle. If there was a battle, surely he was allowed to take part in it.
When he arrived the part of the camp the short handtohand had taken place, he could count 26 elves and their flying beasts killed on the ground, along with 12 giants killed. The rest of the giants had already charged downwards to the battle.
There was the loud *TWANG* of the crossbows heard and he saw 8 more of the things drop down.
Just as Eiríkr was about to join the others, he saw a battalion of wolf riding elves charging upwards, accompanied by a huge fox of light, seemingly burning with heat and nearly blinding the giants.
No creature could stand before the giants! They charged downwards to meet the enemy at a more favorable position, afterall, who could stand before a charge of giant warriors?!
The elven wolf cavalry were stumbling into the spike pits as the giants charged, taken into the battle when the most heat from their own charge had died down.

Eiríkr slashed down at one of the elves, cleanly cutting the pitiful thing in half. The blood was everywhere, but by now Eiríkr was past caring. The adrenaline of the battle was flowing in his veins as he turned to meet his next foe, actually a group of them. They were taking down a tumbled giant, burying their lances into his naked neck.
He pointed his plated fist at them and struck a menacing pose.
"You there! Noone takes down my men without regretting the consecuences!"
"Aye?"
Eiríkr lifted his sword and charged towards the elves, who tried to scatter so as to not be trampled under the giants feet. One of them was too late, and failed to harry his wolf into movement before the foot of the giant kicked him away with a sickening crunch.
Eiríkr turned towards the rest, but was cut short when the great fox of light jumped into his way and snarled at him.
He gave back his own snarl and threw himself back, putting every inch of his strength beneath this blow which would sever the head of the damn thing.
*fwoop!*... and it went straight through. The fiery fox was as if nothing had happened, and jumped towards Eiríkr, clamping its jaws on his body.
Another surprise... "You bite like a puppy, egomaniac" He showed the huge, not-so-fearsome-anymore, away and took a look. Most of the battlers had scattered from around him as the fox had jumped in, and he was standing alone on a small pile of corpses.
At that very moment, Eiríkr felt like sitting on a fire, as torrents of fire blew from behind him, making him turn around. The fox, before so tame looking, had become a lot more mean looking. He could feel the heat emanating from the thing, and quickly backed away as to not being cooked inside his own armor.
Eiríkr turned his back and ran, for there was no great purpose on throwing away his life on this thing. He could finally see Hrafn, charging down from the camp atop his great hound, fenrir. The wolfs jaws were ripping elves apart even as it ran towards the fox, obviously in the intent to kill the thing.
Eiríkr let out a small cheer and turned away to fight on, but could only note that the now heavily dimished elven riders and fliers were retreating from the battle, and so were giants. He ran to the rest and hit the first on shoulder.
"Wher you going men?! There's still a battle to be won!"
The other giant, a heavily wounded regular, gave a hollow smile on him.
"There aint much of us left, and down there, there's lot more of those goddamn bastard elves. Go there if you so much want to throw your life away"
Eiríkr grunted and had to admit that the situation was turning rather dire for the giants. The best they could hope for would be to take as much as possible elves with them to hell. The best choice would be to retreat. He could see a lightly armed battalion of elves trying to flank them, and shouted out a warning. The others took note and soon the retreat was on.
Hrafn rode past him, leaving a trail of blood behind him. It was then that he noticed that the incessant light of the fox was gone, and the only thing litting their surroundings was the torches some of the giants carried.
Others were noticing this too, and somewhere someone began cheering. Soon others took up the cheer and the atmosphere was as if they had won the battle.
"HRAFN!! HRAFN!! HRAFN!!"
It was not like Hrafn was going to lose his reputation anytime soon...

"And this is why I, Kazoku of Teiichi, propose that Tenrai Minzoku should arm itself for a war that is definite to come to us."

There was an uproar inside the parliament that almost threathened to turn this brand new building into rubble. The Hitengu going to war ? Teaching their own people how to kill ? Unthinkable. Stories of giants slaying divine incarnations of Tomoshibi, wild tales of a force to unbelievable to be true, reports the elves were going to "lose no matter what".

"Maybe she has a point..."

"NONSENSE! Not even a giant of 100 meters hight would be able to defeat an incarnation of Tomoshibi. It's like defeating life itself!"

"If we would build an army, how would we fill it? No Hitengu with his mind right would volunteer on such a task. Can't we just ask our neighbours for help ?"

"Fool. Our neighbours are already helping. And they are lsoing !"

"And if they are losing, how can we hope to win ?"

"This is an outrage. Something like this has happened before, and the results were disasterous! We can not go into hiding, not again."

"And this is why we need an army. If we can get rid of the killers, the balance will recuperate. If we just step down and let the giants kill us, wouldn't that be helping them to murder ?"

"What difference does it make anyway ? We have not a single person in Tenrai Minzoku who still keeps the knowledge on how to fight. All documents on that were burned on order of the 15th Hinyuudou."

As this point was voiced, the ocean of voices subsided. He had a point. Even if they were willing, the Hitengu were a folk that simply was not made for fighting. There was no way around it.

It was then, that Ryou raised his voice. Resting his feet on the table, he spoke:

"That is so, not quite correct."

The parlamentarian next to him angrily replied: "Oh shut up, half-son. We all know your so much praised ancestors were "great warriors worth of legend" and I am sure you have the one or the other blade inherited that is now dusting somewhere in your basement, but that is not going to win us a war, will it ?"
With a quick move, Ryou sprang from his chair unto the table of his neighbour. A blade of light had appeared in his hands and missed the throat of the parliamentarian only slightly, cutting clean through the back of his chair.
As if called, the doors opened, and several figures entered the room. Kenta, who had been writing the sessions protocol, Ryou and Kazoku joined them.
Among the figures were Kouta, the big mason who had been housing Danalof, Saki and Yoshiro, the two who were accompanying the meeting with the Katyans in Kawareidou, Hayato, a short man with a thick beard and lastly, Uchiwakamaru, now with pants that had finaly been mended.

The parliamentarian who had recovered from the shock shout out angrily.

"What is the meaning of this?! You are turning this house into a circus! Explain this immediatly."

Ryou opened his mouth wide, as if to say something, but Uchiwaka stole his words.

" "This" is what will save Tenrai Minzoku in his fight for justice. We are the Buhachi. The ones who keep this house together when the ones inside are shaking so strongly in fear that it might collapse. 100 years ago, when the 15th ordered the destruction of all knowledge of war, it was me who kept it alive and cultivated it secretly. I couldn't stand the desrcution of all this wisdom. Not again. And now, that this knowledge is needed, the spirits of the sun the earth and the ocean combine again. They order me to defeat evil, and save the damsel in distress that can't even keep the chair intact that she is sitting on."

"100 years ago? Again? What the hell are you lunatic talking ab.."

Before he could finish the sentence, Uchiwaka bobbed his head with his flute.

"Silence. We have come to save you, have a little respect towards your elders."

Another parliamentarian raised his voice.

"It doesn't matter that we have this weird Buha-whatever group. Just that we have maniacs like you doesn't mean we have to unleash you into the public to spread your poison!"

Only a few seconds later, the parliament was again nothing but a sea of voices. What silent it this time, was Ranpu, who had lifted from her chair, and was now approaching the Buhachi.

"If it is to save Tenrai Minzoku, and to defend the balance it inhabits, then please, by all means, save us. Teach me."

-----------------------------

Messenges are send to all hitengu cities, calling volunteers to Kawareidou. Migurabara is too small and not ready yet to spare someone, but 200 from Teiichi leave, willing to serve the cause.

The glass production has reached new heights, as "nasty little suprises" (of doom) are mass produced.
The consruction of defence structures begin in all cities.

To be able to feed a growing population and properly supply the army, the city of Kawareidou expands northwards, building the farming outpost of Tapufuku, which will soon be connected with roads to feed Kawareidou.

((@evilcherry : Your growth is rather high for dwarves. That makes them closer to insects when it comes to fast breeding. Technically your cities can be sieged, that is, an army can camp outside your cities but it won't starve it. Other than those details your civ seems ok. You need to specify a starting position.

@Devath : Don't worry, I have a copy of the original map. Though I failed to see the errors you pointed out. You are approved for play as soon as you write your starting position. Else I'll stick you in a desert where the sun doesn't shine  :P.

@Kashyyk : Please check your map. Some of the features on it are wrong and I have trouble placing your new city on the map.

@Zako : Remember that 3 of the tiles farmed by your new city belong to the Katytan city. Take care to calculate your popcaps accordingly. Or fight for the land !))

going to embark with city at 09, 09. They are more like Warcraft (post WoW, that is) Goblins. They are individually smaller and weaker than a dwarf of comparable height, and all kind of accidents involving gunpowder in the early gunpowder age cull the population quickly.

Turn 14: Now that the first portal is completed, Danalof sets off to Kawareidou, to see what the discussions of war have led to. He does so with a heavy heart, as he is leaving all his new aquaintances and his new home, but he knows that if he wishes to return and live here in peace, he needs to first help the war efforts in any way he can. Kcirph comes with him too, and finally achieves the most basic level of flow manipulation, only in the flow of air and not enough to do anything useful, but still, a great achievement

But midway on his way to Kawareidou, Danalof met someone he didnt quite expect to meet here, in the middle of difficult paths and roads.

"Danalof, old chap," Exclaimed none other than Uchiwakameru, jumping out from behind some bushes, "I see you made it here. Was the travel a pleasant one?"
"Not quite, friend. I hurried as much as I could. Something dire is about to happen, I feel it in the world's flows..."
"Oh no need to be worried. I mean, I am here, what's to be feared now ?"
"Yes, I can definitely sleep easy now. What about the decidings in the capital? Is there to be an army recruited?"
Yes. Not a step into the right direction, but to keep up the status quo, it is a measure that has to be taken. Though I still hope that none of these men ever has to use their knowledge..."
"War is a truth of the world. I never liked killing people myself, but its either kill or be killed with these kinds of savages. So what are the plans? I was about to head to the capital myself to build a portal twin to the one built in Teichii."
"The voices of the sun the earth and the sea combine, they order me to go hiking. It is I, Uchiwakamaru, gods gift to men, who is going on vacation. That's the plan."
"Vacation, at a time like this??? Clearly, either you have some serious problems sir, or you have another goal in this 'hike' of yours."
"Do you mistrust the voices of the sun, the earth and the ocean? When they tell me to go hiking, I will go hiking. It has been way too long since I have last done that anyway."
"Well friend, I wish you luck on your 'hike'. As for me, I urgently need to go build that portal, unless you have another better idea that might help you in this war more than my plan."
"Oh, you could come with me. Hiking alone is a bliss, but soon it feels lonely. That would help me the most."
Danalof thinks for a bit. "Well..." He remembers that Uchi is far more than what he looks like at first sight. He is, afterall, a general, and a great fighter. "Bah, why not? That way, we can explore the terrain and maybe lay some traps while we are at it."
"Splendid !"
"Where do you plan on heading?"
"Juuust follow me"

Uchiwakamaru hands you a bag that was previously hidden in a bush. It is enormous and heavy.
"Here take that for a while"
Uchiwakamaru jumps and skips along the path.
Danalof seems shocked at the size of the bag. He is already carrying a backpack himself. But a few moments later, sighs and picks it up, and starts following Uchi, while whistling a cheerful tune.

((Danalof and Uchi deviate northwards, map changed))

Ukko hummed under his beard as he was going through a chest, materialized in the gameroom from somewhere. It was an ancient, iron bound wooden chest. Very large.
Finally he found it. A somesort of net on a circle on a stick.
"Excuse me fellow gods, but i have some serious business to attend to. Seek me out at the asteroid field surrounding the stellar system of the gameworld if you need something from me. I shall be catching Butterflies"

Uchiwakamaru and Danalof rent some wyverns from the elven watchpost. They travel further northwards, with only minor complications:

The travel had lasted hours now. The steady up and down of the wyverns rocked the two wanderers up and down. The ground lay underneath them, a sea of trees, throwing waves in the wind. Uchiwakamaru was clinging to the wyvern like one who clings to the edge of a cliff. His face was a nice addition to the green sea of trees waving underneath them.
"Feeling all right there?", asked Danalof concerned.

"Of course. As you can clearly see I am enjoying the fresh air and the marvelous view over the forest." Uchiwaka shackily raised into an upright position. "Ugghh..."
And then went back to clinging

"You know, I might have something in my backpack that could help you with your... green complexion."
" Nahhh....I told you I am invincible. This ride is most enjoyable ! (cont)
Laughing out loud like a maniac, he sat up straight again and spread his army wide, riding free-handed.

"AHAHAHAHAHA"

"Well then I hope you can survive a 100m fall, which is what is going to happen to you if you keep fooling around like that." Muttered Danalof angrily.
Not bothering with that remark, Uchiwakamaru stood up, standing on the back of the wyvern, riding it like a surfboard.
"Oh this is nothiiiiii......"
Only to plummet down. Danalof was already trying to hasitily cast some spells to catch him, but Uchiwaka just flapped his wings and caught himself. Clumsily, he climbed back unto the wyvern.
"See ? I am invincible! No way such a minor thing couOUGGH"
Quickly he turned to the left, and unpleasant sounds were filling the air.
"Seems even 'invincible' people get air-sick. Even bird people who are _meant_ to fly in the first place."
Uchiwakamaru turned around, the corners of his mouth showing clear evidence oh what happened. He made his fingers to a V-sign and grinned widely.
"Me? Airsick? Tommyrot!"

"Well, seems you are enjoying it.", said Danalof, "dripping" with sarcasm "Nothing to it then."

Year 1, Month of ?

A new and strange month begins. Many were expecting a new spring to come forth after winter yet were surprised by this new and strange season. It looked as if time had stopped its flow. Animals made no noise, wind ceased blowing, clouds sat unmoving in the sky. No one knew what this meant but all hoped it was nothing to be worried about. In this strange month that has no name in the human tongue everything is still, nothing grows as if refusing nature's way. Is it a curse from the gods ? An unknown happening in this world ? Who is to say what the Battle of the Gods can cause to nature.

Meanwhile, far away from the planet, Ukko stops hurling asteroids toward the planet. He packs his net and begind to move back to the Palace of the Gods knowing fully well that the Flamewood and its Elves would never be able to survive this attack.

In the Palace Ukko's move had not gone unnoticed. Many gods were intently watching the attempt to wipe out all life in the Flamewood. One deity was very unhappy. Voral, god of the Flamewood elves had prepared for this onslaught. Gathering his powers over fire he began to wait until the asteroids hit the planet's atmosphere. Then he bagan his move. He appeared high above the skies and broke the meteors into smaller pieces, one by one, as they approached the Flamewood and Echogroth. He knew it wasn't enough to prevent the strike, but some damage would be averted.

Finally all of the meteors were broken and a rain of fire began around the flamewood. Echogroth was covered by a shield that turned away the pieces and so was the northern fortress. Yet other flaming bits hit trees and fires erupted. Animals burned and dies, as well as people. They died silently as the climate, or lack thereof, made them unwilling to make a sound, even cries of pain and agony.

((This turn's specials : Any army within the Flamewood (any tile within two tiles range from Echogroth) loses 25% of its troops due to meteor bombardment and heavy forest fires. Units within an elven city (Echogroth or the fortress) are not affected.

EDIT : Next turn will be on Firday (yes, christmas is annoying).))

Turn 17: Silent Preparations

Danalof had been wandering aimlessly for the last few days of the last month of winter. He had teleported out of the giant's town and was searching for Uchi while caring for poor Kcirph. He had expected such a meteoric impact, but was still trying to figure out from where it had came. It could not have been just a random coincidence. Maybe the storm giants somehow summoned it to get rid of the elves south of them? After all, they had had some way of launching thunder down on Uchi that even he himself, a master of fire and air, had barely been able to affect. Maybe their god was getting active? And what about this strange climate, does it have anything to do with all that?

Luckily, Uchi had survived. And now, thanks to some divination, Danalof had seen the Uchi was on his way back to the Hitengu capital. Now was not the time to go all the way back on foot, alot of preparations had to be made. It was time to put the portal in Teichii to use. He could have teleported there with just a few hour's worth of preparations, but decided to take a few days instead for careful precautions so as no to hurt Kcirph any more. Thus, a few days into the nameless month, Danalof was back to his new home in Teichii.

No time to rest. Danalof asked the Hitengu to send a light message to Kawareidou so that Uchi would know he was fine and back home. Then he asked the Hitengu glassworkers and other craftsman to build him a useful lab at his home, so that he could more easily make artifacts from now on. Then, he began planning what artifacts he will be making to help in this war... ((If I find time during these few days, I'll send Istrian a list to be approved))

It has been only 3 days since Uchiwaka had left the elven outpost on the back of a fresh wyvern. How he missed the arguements with Danalof. But he had to stay positive. Danalof was not an ordinary old man. He could take care of himself...

As he was brooding over these thoughts, he saw a light flashing above him. And another one. And another one. Raising his head to the sky, he could see countless balls of fire entering the atmosphere. As if breaking against an invisible wall, they shattered and exploded, sending shrapnel all over the place. A particularly dense wave of fireballs impacted only a few days worth of travel east of Uchiwaka.
Time to make a detour.

When he arrived, the fires were still raging, but in the center of the impacts, all flameable material had already been burned to dust. Coughing from the smoke, Uchiwaka fell on his knees. He had been to this forest before. He had seen many of the trees growing from the seed, some of them were even planted by him. Now this was a desert of ashes. The dark grey ground was covered with small craters, and it reminded uchiwaka of the sandbanks in which antlions were breeding. He let his fingers run over the ashes and tears fell on the ground. The ashes weres till so hot that they made a hissing noise.
This was not a natural event, that was for sure. Uchiwaka raised up again, and turned his head towards the sky. Swirling his flute in one hand, he produced a large ball of light and sent it flying towards a particularly large and dark cloud in the sky.

"Curse you, stormgod! Do you hear me?! I will find a way into the heavens, and will slay you were you stand! This is a vow!"

Shaking his fist angrily at the cloud, he returned to his wyvern. As if his angry prayer was answered by divine retribution, he tripped. Turning around to put a curse on whatever just tripped him, his eyes were caught by a faint blue glitter. What was that?
Uchiwaka picked up the blue shimmering stone and inspected it closer. Must be some kind of metal ore. Now that he saw this, they were scattered all over the place. What a fabulous gift to bring home! No one had ever heard of something this strange. Blue metal. Danalof would probably love to get his artificer hands on this.

----------------------------

((Uchiwaka obtained 30Kg of a raw, unidentified metal ore, that has a faint blue color))

It has been only a day since Uchiwaka had returned to Tenrai Minzoku, and much had happened since then. Uchiwaka had given order to clean the area around Tapufuku and Kawareidou of all stones that were bigger than a fist. Uchiwaka had seen how strong these giants are, and he would not willingly supply them with ammo. Furthermore, the troops are to get ready to move out, great stocks of supplies for them are readied. At the end of the month, the first battalion would move out to Tapufuku, to give the giants a warm welcome. Deep in their hearth, they wished this was the only welcome they would have to give the giants. Being a soldier was not exactly how they imagined their life, and they would soon want to go back to their routine.

Uchiwakamaru however had something entirely different in mind. He would have to attempt something that he had failed many times in the past. The 4th trial of the 8 headed dragon. The water shall be your mirror. Once it is smooth, you will be able to see. A trial much harder than the 3 trials he had taken before. He would climb the peak of the Daitihachi, and in the frosty water of the mountaintop lake, he was meditating. Meditating. Until the water shall become smooth....

The training of the soldiers begins, first battalion is 5/5 trained.
The building of defences are continued, about 4/4 done. Elaboration and reinforcement of defences:2/3

The army, fully trained and sufficently supplied, moves out to Tapufuku, as this is, how Uchiwaka reasoned, the place where the giants will strike first, and in an emergency, close anough to other cities to get there quickly. The civil populance is moved to Kawareidou.

------------------------------

The special task:

Yoshirou stood in front of his 32 best men. He has taught them everything about the art of shooting. Every tiny nuance of aiming. Every single bit. And so, these 32 proud men and women now were capable of ending the war, before it even comes to them. Where Uchiwakamaru has failed, this group would be more successful. Yoshirou began to speak, with a thick, south-hitenguan accent. Such an accent has become rare, mostly because there hasn't been any "south" for several hundred years, but some families still preserved it.

"Marksmen hear me. It has become our task to walk forth, and to stop the hordes of evil before they even cross our borders. It is a great burden that is placed on your shoulders. The burden to spill the first blood. It might weigh down on your shoulders like sacks of stones, and some of you, might never be able to take them off. But this is the burden that each of us has agreed to bear. And look around. What will happen to this city, should our enemies arrive here at full strength? Who is going to stop them? These clumsy sword-swingers? These brute juggernauts? Who else is going to stop them but us, the noble marksmen of Tenrai Minzoku. You are my best. The elite. You have learned everything I could ever teach you. You can hit an apple on 900 meters without hesitation. You will take the burden, and walk on with it on your shoulders, while collecting the burden of hundreds of your fellow soldiers. You will collect those weights, climp a mountain with them on your shoulders and laugh. Every dead giant saves the life of dozens of Hitengu and ultimately, saves the peace in Tenrai Minzoku. Aim without hesitation. Release without doubt. Save lifes. And move out!

There was a cheer from the marksmen. A hesistant, nervous cheer, but it was a cheer. Except for one of them. One of them was laying in tears.

"What's the matter soldier? Can't believe how lucky you are to have such an honor?"

"It...it is n-nothing just..sometime this seasons the eggs, they will hatch and...and.."

"I see....Anyone else currently having a full nest?"

One more man raised his hand.
"Freshly laid, sir"

"The two of you, stay here"

"But..but I can shoot."

"I said the two of you stay here. This is an order. The rest of you, northwards"

With that, the 12th division of the Hitengu army moved northwards. Unto honor. Unto glory. Unto bloody murder.

---------------------------

Meanwhile:

Saki was climbing Mt.Teapot slowly and tediously. So tired...So tired..Such a chore...
Uchiwaka had not moved out together with the rest of the army, and so Ryou, who had taken charge, had send Saki back to look for him.
The top ouf mt.Teapot was a collapsed cavern, perfectly round, that resembled the inside of a teapot, hence the name. Inside the cavern, from a lake, was the origin of the river running through Kawareidou. This was a holy place for the Hitengu. All the more it was suprising to see that Uchiwaka was sitting crosslegged inside the lake, not moving an inch, completely naked.

"Uchiwakaaa...get out of here. Ryou iss all angry that you didn't come to move out."

Uchiwaka didn't move an inch.

"Uchiwakaaaa...it's only spring, the water must be icy cold, why are you in there anywaaay. Uchiwakaaa.."
Saki began to shake him, angrily, and soon noticed that his body was totaly stiff, and cold as ice.

"Uchiwaka don't play tricks on me. Uchiwaka!"
Paniking, Saki dragged him out of the water unto the rock. hastily, she felt his pulse. It was almost gone. Not knowing what to do, Saki just continued shaking him. shouting his name loudly.

"Uchiwaka. Uchiwaka wake up. Don't leave me! Uchiwaka!"

Suddenly, Uchiwaka opened his eyes wildly. Saki apruptly stopped shaking him. Instead, Uchiwaka grabbed her by the shoulders and began shacking her instead.

"GOD DAMMIT! Can't you see I am trying to stop my own heartbeat!!! How am I supposed to stop my own heartbeat if you shake me like a madman!!"

Saki was too flabbergasted to respond to the shaking.

"Stop your own heartbeat? Why would you do that?"

"Because of this!"

Uchiwaka let go of her, and dipped a finger into the water. Tiny circular waves expanded from it.

"I...I don't understa.."

"It is not smooth! I can only make it smooth when I am perfectly still. At first I thought just standing still and holding my breath would do. But it doesn't. As long as blood circulates in my veins, the damn waves won't disappear."

"I..I still don't under.."

"Read this."

Uchiwaka took a very elaborately worked jade-fan from the pile that were his clothes and handed it to Saki.

"You have to become one. The water shall be your mirror. Only a perfectly mirrored surface will let you see."

"You see, and this is why I am trying to make this water all smooth like a mir..wait, did you say "mirror" or "mirrored" ?"

"Mirrored"

In a flash, Uchiwaka grabbed the fan from Saki's hands and stared at the letters.

"Though I have no idea how keeping still will smooth the water. We are on top of a mountain. It's windy here. Even if you are still, the air is not."

Uchiwaka hands were trembling. He slung his arms around saki and kissed her.

"Oh god I love you Saki. Thank you so much."

Then, he jumped back to the edge of the lake, holding the fan high above his hand, leaving saki in stupor. Waiting.
Meanwhile, Saki was fighting for air.

"A-anyway..what I-I came for was that Ryou had send me t-to get you."

"Tell him I will make it in time for the great event. He shouldn't get too wroked up about it....Are you alright, you are all flushed?"

"..."

"..."

With this, Saki stormed out of the cave. Meanwhile, Uchiwaka just stood still...What was he supposed to mirror?

Sorry for being so late! Heres my turns:

Turn 17: Towns keep building, troops keep training, Erak encounters the Katytan.

Turn 18: Towns finish building, more troops trained, bars of metal arrive at Lindos (much to the joy of metalsmiths). Katytan troubles...

Turn 19: More troubles for poor Erak, Lindos completes building and starts making ships, the Hrun in Simbulk are frightened by the passage of a wounded Ranpu and prepare to move southwards to a better spot (much to their chargin, as they dont want to leave the demigod and student behind). 50 people are lost in Lindos, 30 in Simbulk. The northern army is resting in the Elven city and has sent message for a large reinforcement on their position.

Turn 20: By the time that the Katytan troops arrive they find that all the people in the town are gone and they find tracks of a large group of people moving south along the mountains. Lindos sends a large number of troops north to the Northern army, fully armoured and armed (300 in total) and they arrive in the Hitengu city this turn. Erak does something wierd (look below in spoiler)...

Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Akroma on January 07, 2009, 03:43:26 am
Your race as such seems about fine, though I think a starting pop of 200 is, considering their relative strength, quite a lot. Also I am not sure wether the ability to operate a crossbow while in full flight would be entirely fair, given that they are not already a melee-force that rivals the stormgiants, but also that hardly anyone at all would be able to take out an army of flying marksmen.

I have no objection against the speed bonus, seeing how they are much stronger and have more enurance than the flying Hitengu, who cannot keep on flying for too long, especially with luggage.
Also, you still need to specify a chosen hero.
Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Navian on January 07, 2009, 04:27:21 am
(Well, if it's alright to chime in here...)

The whole thing sounds fair to me, even the crossbow thing and starting population (it's late in the game, after all, and you did pick a remote starting location,) although firing crossbows while flying definitely should not be conducive to aiming, and using such a tactic would be disasterous in bad weather. Plus, the backdrop of an open sky tends to make targeting from the ground (behind cover, even) a very simple procedure. Doesn't seem overpowered to me.
Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: mission0 on January 07, 2009, 06:11:57 am
heh now that I think on it crossbows probly would be horrible to use in the sky, they would be put to better use on the ground as fighters. Also I would agree that targeting while in mid flight would be fairly difficult for anyone.

- Hero: Skriz - All but a master at bending earth he is capable of shifting earth even in the worst of conditions. Even if he is getting on in years he devotes his time to developing new ways for Earth bending to be used weather for war or for economic use.
His ability with a Dracan staff is impressive as well as he uses the Dracans natural agility and earthbending capabilities in lethal doses in combat.

There's me hero. I'll also edit it into the post above to avoid confusion.

Year 2, Early summer

The Watcher turned away from the destruction of Echogroth and the elven race and saw many of the gods talking to one another. New ones were stepping up, bringing their races into the world. The Palace seemed very much dead though, so it had an idea. It raised its voice -not that it was necessary- and said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we shall bring some liveliness to this place. Five months from now I propose you bring your chosen champions here to introduce them to us and to let them talk to us. Of course" it briefly turned its hood towards Ukko and Tomoshibi "no violence shall be allowed for the duration of this" it thought about a human word it had long ago forgotten but now remembered "party. Obviously those of you who do not want their Chosen to know about this place are free to wipe the Chosen's memories. I will be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. Attendance is not mandatory of course."

- On Danalofs suggestion, the construction of a secret anti giant tool begins. Will be finished in the middle of next turn.

- Ryou, after receiving a message from the parliament, leaves the front and moves to Kawareidou.

- The army of the Hrun combines with the army of the Hitengu

- supply chains amongst the cities are shifted. To be able to meet the huge demand, Teiichi and Mikuraba expand, forming outskirts to feed the hungry population and the army. Also, migrants leave Kawareidou, and make their way eastwards, over the mountains.

Summary:
Danalof meets Uchi in Tapufuku, and solves a second riddle, giving him a new power.
Danalof takes 5 of the soldiers to teach them some magic stuff:

(Soldier Type, Major flow, what they are learning now)
Sentry, Mind, 1/6 Basic Mind
Sword user, Displacement, 1/6 Basic Displacement
Spear user, Temporal, 1/8 Basic Darkness
Spear user, Light, 1/6 Basic Light
Shield user, Water, 1/8 Basic Illusion

((more might come if i feel like it))

And now, the great unveiling of Danalof's house, picture drawn by Akroma:
(http://i39.tinypic.com/2n6vmgo.png)

It is impossible to know wether it is a treehouse or a housetreem but it is perfect for Danalof. It is in a quiet part of the city, and has a small moat around it were Danalof can feed the ducks like all old people like to do!

Turn 22
Year 2, Mid-summer

((Since people are starting to field large armies, here are a few rules for army food supply.

1) An army takes supplies from a city. Each soldier in an army lowers the pop-cap of the city by one. For example, to feed 100 soldiers you will have to lower the popcap of a city by 100.
2) Supply trains take the fastest route to the army (no need to mark them on the map). If you want a supply train to take another route, tell me in private.
3) Since an army is supplied from a city that city needs to have the peasants required to produce the food (no leaving cities with 0 pop to feed armies). You can safely assume that a food producer in a city is enough to feed 5 soldiers in the field.
4) The only case when an army does not need to be supplied is as follows : the army must be moving at a speed of one tile/turn on favored terrain. This assumes that your army sends out food collectors to hunt/fish/gather supplies.
5) Is considered an army any group bigger in size than 500*growth people. For example if you have 10% growth, groups smaller than 50 do not need support.

If you feel there is a particular rule missing or if one of the rules has no reason to be or does not apply to your civ, discuss it with me.))

Perhaps I forgot to say the obvious :

A group counts as an army only when it is outside of the city that supplies it. When inside it just counts as normal population.

EDIT : Unless of course your whole population in a city is military in nature.

EDIT 2 : Forgot the least obvious. An army witout supplies loses 25% of its soldiers every turn it is unsupplied.

The anti-giant tools have been prepared, and in the middle of the month, the Hitenguan army moves out. Civilians are spread out, as to provide food and other supplies to the army in abundance.

The Hitengu settlers still try to cross the mountains, but the hrash environment causes many deaths. The mountainpass is henceforth dubbed Boketsu Tanima, the grave valley.

Finally, its time to move northwards. Danalof continues teaching as much as possible to the 5 students on his way. The Hitengu had received reinforcements from the Hrun, and the secret weapons against the giants that he had proposed had been completed too. It seemed that they had a high enough chance of winning this war afterall!

Teaching status:
Sentry, Mind, 2/6 Basic Mind
Sword user, Displacement, 2/6 Basic Displacement
Spear user, Temporal, 2/8 Basic Darkness
Spear user, Light, 2/6 Basic Light

More RP soon. I have Monday off, and have been temporarily distracted from my new games. I may get a good quantity in this time, but I'm not certain. I do know that I have far more lying undeveloped in my head than is considered even remotely healthy for RP development. I do have plans, I just have to get around to them. I'll have to get some non-dated material out too, so just wait a little. I'm working on this stuff.


EDIT: Waking up at 4PM does not seem conducive to large amounts of RP. I'll get a little more done, but sleep hinders my efforts sometimes.

And Akroma... The assumed territory should probably be every inch of the contiguous desert. :P

The migrants arrive at prefered terrain, and as such, move slowly to prevent starvation.

Sorry for the lateness, here's my turns as best as I can make them:

Turn 21:

The Hrun army meets and joins with the Hitenguean army and starts to prepare themselves for the journey to echogroth.

The  refugees decide that it may be a better idea to move into the plains to make a city there, away from the Katytan. They aren't happy.

Ships still being constructed in Lindos.

Turn 22:

The army moves with the Hitenguean army.

The refugees move onwards to the middle of the plain, slowly so not to loose people to starvation.

Boats still building in Lindos.



Turn 23:

Writing up soon.

Year 2, Mid-Autumn

Winter was approaching again, and with it the cold days that would freeze the land. The north was already coated by snow and ice and the south would soon follow the same fate.

In the Palace of the Gods the Watcher turned away from the view it had on the world below. It spoke to the assmebled gods and demons.
"It looks like the giants have been wiped out. They followed the way they paved for the elves and now are on the brink of complete extinction. Looks like the party is going to be less attended than what we hoped for."

((Mission0 : I think you miscalculated the popcap of your southernmost city. It is supplied by 3 hills, 2 plains and 1 water. The mountains to the north are already supplying your capital so they don't count.))

Year 2, Late Autumn

The Watcher glanced around the Palace. It was a long glance but a required one to check if everything was ready to receive the honored champions of the gods. The banquet room was full of tables overloaded with various foods. Multiple servants were waiting outside to take care of the mounts of the incoming champions. Many other servants, similarly clothed in dark suits, were waiting inside to show each guest his quarters. Everyone was expected to stay for at least a few months, it wasn't as if gods were in a hurry anyway and a cold winter was coming up in the mortal world.

Everything seemed to be ready for the guests, so The Watcher moved to the great hall where many gods were already waiting. It motionned to a servant at the door, and the door opened. The servant took out a scroll with the names of the champions to shout out their names as they entered the hall. Slowly, music began to rise. A valse probably.

The Watcher turned to the assembled gods. "Shall we begin ?" it simply said.

And it began...

Turn 27
Year 2, Early Winter

The Watcher radiated displeasure. And he was very displeased with the gods' attitude towards the party. Most of them acted as if nothing was happening. While the event did not really require the presence of the champions, refusing an invitation from the omnipotent Arbiter of this game was certainly not a life-saving move. Something needed to be done.

((A guideline for winters : it is reasonable to consider that armies in the field in winter should lose some of their soldiers to the cold and other illnesses in the air. This is not a rule, merely a guideline to make RP more realistic.))

In case you want to know, he was determined by flipping a coin. On 500 meters, he managed to hit it, while it was spinning, and got heads.))

((I am planning a major cleanup of the board in a few turns to get rid of NPC civs. If you are unhappy with your current civ and would like to change, or if you want to leave the game, please post it somewhere visible in your turn posts. I will assume that those who don't post anything (or don't send me a PM) by the beginning of turn 30 are out of the game. Please don't take this personally, I am only doing this because the board is a bit cluttered with NPC civs and those still playing don't know what to do when they meet those.
Thank you for your understanding.))

Well, you did pick the location before anyone was there at all... Zako and Akroma are building boats, and I assume Mission is too, so something should happen. Or maybe you could ask for a relocation. Or drag somebody in to start play nearby so you can tell them to keep off your grass. Or something.

Post by: Istrian on January 22, 2009, 06:50:41 pm
You know, if you want contact with other civs the right way is to go to them, even if it is metagaming everyone has been doing it so far. Of course if you want to relocate somewhere else you can.

Other things you could do is expand because if you get your pop growth in a single turn you'll probably exceed your popcaps, and that is not allowed.

You can also write about your civilization and its culture, so that they don't remain anonymous forever.

Year 3, Early Spring

Suddenly the air in the world grew still. Animal noises stopped as if something bad was about to happen. The Watcher raised its hands and began mumbling. The atmosphere on the world grew oppressive, tense. Small black holes opened everywhere in the world, sucking in those who had disappointed the Watcher. This humiliation would not go unpunished, it thought. In a matter of seconds it was over. People, houses, farms, cities, civilisations disappeared in that short instant.

In the gods game room.

The game had been living a short term of peace after the annihilation of the Storm giants. But now it seemed a new conflict was forming, with the northern nations striking at the orcs, who had threatened the relatively peaceful Erithreans. The gods around the board looked with interest.
Yet another form apparated into the gameroom, apparently not one of the gods directly playing on the board. He, or more "It" was a hollow hooded robe, with only the blackened skull of a human hovering inside the hood.
It hovered near the gameboard and looked over it with interest. Slowly the creaking jaws of the skull opened.
"I dare say... You need something more down in that board..."
Without heeding the other gods inquiries, demands and downright refusals, He or it, produced a piece of its own and used somesort of telekinesis to drop it onto the board. It was a monster. Big one. And it certainly looked strange.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It patted the creature with an invisible finger and exclaimed to noone particular.
"Have... Fun."

Somewhere in the eastern side of the mountainrange.

The rock cracked and creaked, and eventually, the ancient plateau, marked by some ancient civilization with some strange markings and warding stones, exploded in a shower of rock and dust. What had been a majestic landmark and a historic spot was now a crater of dust and boulders. As the dust faded, the lone badger surprised by the explosion was even more surprised by the huge clawed foot crushing it.
Khordad Shash sniffed the air and let his conscience wander around the surroundings, noting every detail.
So this is the world today?
It had changed a lot since the last sight, but not too much. The surroundings were still somewhat familiar, that mountain, if not a bit smaller. Erosion had been running rampart. Lots of thoughts and musings were filled in this moment, the dreams of millions of years fleeting away like... dreams.
One feeling washed over all homever, and so strongly it was not to be denied. He was hungry.

Khordad Shash could feel the strings of life, floating around in this world, everywhere he looked. Fleeting away and coming, like from under his right front leg. He could easily feel the concentrations of life, empires and cities, all around him, expect for the very northest regions. Two such promising ones were directly to the east and west.
He set off.

Map

Summary of thoughts.
-Khordad Shash started at 24.11 That is because i didnt remember the exact spot but remembered it was somewhere around there.
-Khordad moves at the speed of 2 at any terrain expect water, which he cannot cross since he cant fly and swimming isnt very suited for him
-Size: main body: from snout to tail 140 meters, height from feet to elbow 60 meters.
Snaketail: reach lenght to any direction 170 meters

Attack on Higashi.

There it was, Higashi. Khordad could feel the lives teeming inside it, going around their everyday lives. Though by now they were not so everyday and more of panicking. The city was built like a crescent. The distance between the city and Khordad Shash was some 2 kilometres. Should be easy...

He tensed his muscles, backed away abit, took speed and leaped. To most of the Hitengu, thats what they called themselves apparently, he could have just aswell took flight. He crashed to the borders of the middle town, leveling a few buildings in the process of stopping. Some pagodas were felled, their inhabitants screaming and some taking into air, only to be fried by a breath of fire from the right snake head, and eaten by the other.
Khordad Shash could only be disappointed at these hitengu, as they were fleeing from the town like headless chickens. He concentrated his mind and began to craft an illusion image of himself, projecting it to the other side of the town, herding those fleeing into that direction towards the real threat, to pile them up. He managed to collect some 500 Hitengu into a pile. Standing menacingly over them he reached into their terrified, feeble minds.
STOP.
Such was the power of Khordads command in their minds that the swelling mass immeaditetly just stood silent and stared into his eyes, their last shreds of willpower drained into the depths of those swirling red eyes. Khordad examined the minds of every Hitengu, looking for the prize. Soon he had spotted it, 42 young virgin girls were commanded to step forth from the crowd. They walked like mindless bodies and assembled themselves under Khordads lower face. Khordad opened the maws and a long, snakelike tongue slithered out of the lower faces mouth. It was covered in metallic razorsharp blides, easily able to skewer anything it lashed at, and also protecting the fleshy weapon itself. Slowly it curled around the enthralled virgins, and then suddenly squeezed tightly. The girls were drawn into the glowing, fiery depths of its maw. No screams were heard, no blood was spilled. Just the snap of the jaws as they closed.

Finally the jaws burbed out the blackened, partially burned bones and skulls. The mainhead turned its attention down on the hypnotized crowd, and the snake tail slithered downwards, preparing for the rest of the meal. Deep fried of course. The right snakehead drew its breath, and engulfed the crowd in flames. Only the flesh remained, all clothes, feathers and such burned away. The heads began their dinner.

Dinner done, Khordad Shash streched himself and looked around. Most of the city was still intact, but deserted. Well, no need to leave a halfassed work behind you. He concentrated his powers again, and suddenly, several buildings near him conflagarated, the fire spreading with unnatural speed. Khordad Shash left the flaming town.

Summary

Training of new battalions: 3/7

After a brutal attack of an unknown monster, Higashi is still working on the reconstruction and the burial of the dead that have not been eaten. Not all those who fled or hid from the mosnter returned to the city. 30 of them made their way eastwards through the forest, after having spotted smoke rising up in that direction.

Ok, I've not payed attention to this for awhile, so I'm here to pick up mah slack.

Here's the quick overlook:

Turn 28: Boats finished! Towers finished! (It's a massive fleet so that's why it took so long.) Provisions for a long trip are being stored on boats. Army arrives back home at Lindos, to much joy and appreciation. Laos starts building large walls.

Turn 29: The boats are stocked and are ready to depart in the spring. Laos continues to build walls (1/6 done).

Turn 30: Boats leave Lindos with 400 people and head north along the coast to the hitengu coastal city. Erak hears of the hitengu plight with the gobbos and orcs and decides that the Hrun could help out. He sends a fully armed and armoured army of 500, 250 from Lindos and 250 from Laos, to the Hitengu city so that they can be redirected properly to the right place. He sends a letter detailing his intentions to the Hitengu parliament. Laos continues building: 2/6 done. A support population of 200 arrives from Lindos at Laos to compensate for it's contribution to the army.

Turn 31: The army fully forms in Laos for the trip north. They assemble siege weapon parts while at Laos and take them with them. Laos populations continue their construction: 3/6 done. Boat fleet arrives in Hitengu city and resupplies there for the trip northwards. Lindos begins to build a road, like they have seen in the Hitengu cities.

Turn 32: The boats leave the nearest Hitengu coastal city and go directly north. They see what appears to be a large iceberg in the distance and head towards it knowing that icebergs shouldn't be here at this time of year. The army moves north and into the nearby hitengu city. Laos continues to build: 4/6 done. Road is 1/3 done.

((Rock floats just fine. Zako does have some points, and so does Jonathan. I didn't read that race profile or opener, so I don't know. First off, if its clear and watery bluish, it will look like ice. Regardless of whether it is or not, it will look like ice. However, anything with uniform structure that is made of ice or even something that looks like ice should not be interpreted as an iceberg. That is a sign of poor racial eyesight. Also, if you could see it from any reasonable distance, it would be obvious that it couldn't be an iceberg. Meh. Just my chip. Clueless.))
Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Zako on February 02, 2009, 04:06:38 am
((Ice is the only solid that floats in it's own liquid. In the arrival of the race, it is said that the city was made from WATER. It then transformed into a SOLID. If it was water in the beginning and now floats on top of water as a solid, it is obviously ice from a realistic view. This doesn't take into account of magic and fantasy elements and so on. The material that Foereaver is made from is obviously a example of this.

Rock doesn't float all that well in my knowledge of the elements. And the Hrun sailors aren't familiar with the workings of magic as their race has none at the moment. So they will use what they know and have experienced: if it looks like ice, floats on water and looks like ice: Its obviously an iceberg to them.

And if you actually read the entire post right, you would have read that it APPEARS to be an iceberg. A strange iceberg because it is floating in the ocean in spring, but something that APPEARS to look like an iceberg from a tile away nonetheless.))

((For one the 'rock' is magical and floats, second it's opaque and a bluish-purplish colour. Thirdly it isn't raised out of the water like a typical iceberg - it looks more like an island. The entire 'islands' outskirt - the shore - is.. Uh it's hard to explain. You know the wall that docks have? The entire shore is that.))
Title: Re: Battle of the Gods IV
Post by: Zako on February 02, 2009, 08:43:43 am
((Ahh ok. That explains a lot. But remember that to a nonmagical hrun from a tile away from the island, it looks to be an iceberg. That will change when they get closer. Happy?))

Turn 33
Year 3, Early Summer

((
@everyone : please avoid retroactive movement. It tends to upset players who want to attack you ;). It creates time paradoxes too.

Also, when planning to attack someone, the attacker should send me the strategy as early as possible before the attack. It takes time to check that strategies are valid and to wait for the defender's strategy. It also takes a lot of time and PMs to find out the exact kind of terrain you are fighting on.

A strategy PM must at least include the exact amount of troops involved. If more than two civs are fighting I need a PM from all involved parties (either each civ's strategy or an autorization to let another player control the army).

@Zako : you probably forgot, but Erak is supposed to be that 'v' standing NE of the katytan capital.

Training of new battalions: 4/7

The Hitengu refugees arrive at ikyon

The Hrun army is lead southwards, but due to the Hrun being slow in this terrain, they do not arrive yet.

The remaining Hitengu soldiers who were victorious after the siege, remain in Mimikozga, forming a Hitenguan district, Choume, southwest of the Katyan city, surrounded by volcanic springs. The Katyans and the Hitengu alike beginbuilding streets to connect their cities.

Lazy times

The ground shook a little as Khordad laid down for a nap. The meal had been good, and for anyone of his age, a heavy meal deserves a heavy rest. He closed his eyes, and let his consciusness out of his material body, free to float around in the world.
A good time to check out the next meal...

I might still do RP, I might even still post my turns, since both of them can be fun, but the game absolutely isn't. Don't expect this to change much unless Akroma actually feels like taking over, but don't expect me to stay involved, either.)

Count me out as well.

First Heph quits, now Navian. And, excuse me if I have to say it that way, the rest of the players are not exactly the kind of people I want to play BotG with (except maybe for poltifar, but in the end, he is only a single adventurer).
Botg is a RP game, and not a strategy game.

If I am forced to endure fighting war against people who have copypasted the same list over and over again just with different numbers more often than they exchanged dialouge with another player then I can wholehearthly say that this botg has nothing interesting to hold me, not even Uchi and the story I had planned, because half of the players here don't read it anyway.

Hello everyone I come to this party, a bit late perhaps. But I shall not let that stop me.
Name: The Astroligans
Deity: Asmovos, The Metal God.
Spheres: Science: 4, Chaos:2 and Space:2

Description: A supercomputer salvaged from the remains of the Astroligans original colony ship, he is a master of chaos theory and uses it to create unlikely events in far-away locales (I.E. miracles) Via the careful manipulation of his immediate surroundings. His powers show up as unlikely (but still possible events) occurring, forewarning of danger and an extensive knowledge of natural phenomena. He controls the systems of the Astroligans cities and vehicles, This is both more and less useful then it seems, as the sensors installed in all mechanical devices made by the Astroligans allow it to see almost anything within the borders of his lands, as well as allowing him to spy on trading partners and those who have been given gifts, but it also can slow him down considerably due to processor overload, this may lead him to shut down some of his more outlying sensors at the worst possible time.

How He views his civ and others: Asmovos was designed to obey 4 laws,
1. Preserve the Astroligans and their civilization.
2. Preserve yourself, except when doing so would contradict the 1st law.
3. Try to save the maximum amount of Astroligans in any given situation, save where this would contradict the 1st & 2nd laws.
4. Make as many allies as possible and defend them, except where this would contradict the other laws

Morphology: Physically, the Astroligans somewhat resemble the common yeti, or sasquatch, in the same way a monkey resembles a human. They are smaller and not so heavily built, but still slightly stronger and taller than the average human. In addition to this, they also have a third arm protruding from their chest, this has lead them to adopting a 5-base number system. (5 fingers to a hand, 5 toes to a foot and five limbs) Due to living in cold areas that tend to have vast expanses they have very good eyesight.

Society: They believe in technology, trusting it to guide them and sustain them and generally imbuing it with mythology and magic and all sorts of things, That most rarest of things, a constitutional parliamentary theocracy. The technology they used to understand was very utilitarian, allowing one object to do many tasks.

As for the organization of their society, the main "House" has 2 main parties occupying a total of 12 seats, with the current priest-president taking a 13th seat. The most influential parties that fight for control of this house are: The Inquisitorials, who believe in trying to understand and use the technology lost to them and the Fundamentalists, who believe that they should revere and enshrine the sacred relics. In addition to the main parliament there are other, less powerful houses, ranging from the Foreign relations house which dictates foreign policy and war efforts, to the house of etiquette which, well discusses and dictates proper behavior in high society.

Their goal is to either:
A. take control of the world, except maybe the rain forests and deserts.
B. Open a portal back to their homeworld, to let loose an endless tide of their kind
C. Call down the abandoned colony ship in orbit, still containing it's technology and cold-sleeping colonists
Or: D.Create a deep, deep space transmitter to call their home planet.

Technology: they have little understanding of the higher technologies, but a complete knowledge of pre-industrial tech, they have little understanding of anything past basic steam power,though they do have scattered knowledge of futuretech.

Magic: In their case they don't have any magic as such, but the technology they use can take its place. Some of the technology they use is magi-tech, the magic that it uses is old and inconsistent, causing them to break a lot, the magic that they used to use before technology outcompeted it was free, given off by all of their race constantly, the ways of using it and binding it are long forgotten. The place of magicians in this society is given to the priests. They supply and investigate the technology

How they came here: They were an expedition to excavate an artifact and ascertain it's purpose and in doing so accidentally activated it. This blasted the expedition (as well as a good many miles of glacier and tundra surrounding it) into this world.

Favored areas:
Tundra 170/3
Glacier 170/3
Forest 170/3
Unfavored:
Rainforest: 17/1

First city: Nivon Angelis (cold reaches), Capital. pop: 1500, location: 23,3
A metal tower in the forbidding north, this is the capital of the Astroligans civilization on this planet. As well as the parliament, the main components of Asmovos are housed here. As well as the dominating spire there are the slums surrounding the base, themselves surrounded by large walls and heavy defenses.

Second: Pattonis Demonin (Metal Depths), secondary capital. pop: 750, location: 20,4
A Sheltered, well hidden town in a deep artificial cavern whose entrance is a massive sinkhole, this city is also the end point of the team that activated the device in the old world.

Third:Terra Firm (Earthbound), City: pop: 750, location: 28,4
A large city with a strange police force that just loves to throw up roadblocks, this city is home to the priests main temple, repository of the civs technology.

Special: +2 movement on roads (motorized vehicles)

Turn 35
Year 3, Late Summer

((The arrival of the Astroligans transforms the norhtern part of the map into frozen land (tundra will be represented by * from now on).

It is sad to see so many people leaving, but I guess there is nothing to be done. For the enjoyment of all, I will continue running the game as long as there are at least 4 players posting.))

A strange construct appears at the table where the gods gather, it could be described as a mere box with a glass screen and keyboard, but that wouldn't do it any justice at all, it is the metaphysical form of what could just possibly be called a god, after all. It had many exposed wires of impressiveness, rows upon rows of blinking tubes to show that it was powerful and advanced (How this association came about I shall never know), big, sparkling towers of imaginary computing (it really is quite powerful) and perhaps even a small, looping river, complete with waterfall (How is this possible? SCIENCE!) that is used to cool the great behemoths gigantic processor. Upon the screen these words appeared: OH DEAR, I APPEAR TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF TRANS-PHYSICAL CREATURES WITH GIANT EGOS, OR AS THE PROLES WOULD PUT IT: GODS. LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR: I ONLY WANT TO PROTECT THESE POOR, STUPID FLESH-PILES I HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED TO SERVE AND GO HOME. IF YOU OBJECT TO THAT, I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE SYSTEMIC MASS ANNIHILATION OF SENTIENTS THAT I HAVE NO SAFEGUARDS AGAINST HARMING. NOW, LET THE GAMES BEGIN, AS THE INHABITANTS OF A NUMBER OF EMPIRES, ALL VERY ANCIENT VERY POWERFUL AND VERY DEAD WOULD SAY. With this several pieces resembling metal stalagmites phased into existence on the board.
