and you dont need a scientific explanation for everything. We are Gods and there is Magic...i think you can't really explain most of that with Scientific Stuff...but if you want to go ahead, just wanted to tell you in case you felt obliged to give your Soulcatching planet some kind of pseudo-scientific explanation.

How does a magnetic field affect souls, anyway?

Out of curiosity, why would Procella last longer than Cobbok?

It just seems that Cobbok would be more of a pushover and physically weaker god than Porcella, but thats just my opinion

Cobbok is basically the archmage to end all archmages, and probably wouldn't get into fistfights or whatever with other gods if he could avoid...
Oh, right.

Out of curiosity, why would Procella last longer than Cobbok?

I say we have a cask of poisoned ale put aside in case he ever gets any more "bright" ideas,

No. Ignoring how illegal it would be to use this, not to mention having high collateral damage and quite possibly being easily traceable, there's the risk of friendly fire if we're not careful where we put it...or if we forget which is the poisoned one...

If we had grabbed the dude abruptly and "illegally" on our way down to the Duke the first month after... whole different story, I think. We'd have been pardoned by the Duke after the fact.

Assuming we didn't get caught by the Cunt, but what's done is done.

... wool for the gold in our coffers. I hear the wool trade has an opening. Let's talk with Irlof about subsidizing the rise of an ambitious young wool trader and corner this local market.

:|... :\... ... I like it !

Yeah, this sounds like an amusing, if somewhat mean, idea.

We should be working on those preparations for the wife, though. Mews, nicer house, etc. Also, we should definitely make excess metal into crafts or something if possible; they sell for more that way.

Finally...let's see if we can attract some more merchants. "Upgrade" the inn, make it more attractive and perhaps larger if it's consistently or periodically full to the brim. Perhaps encourage the opening of another inn instead of enlarging the existing one, now that I think about it; competition encourages quality.

There are no ghosts! I made sure to build a Hell specifically to house them and weaken them to where they cannot escape.

These are the other ghosts.
GWG: Mostly the souls of vampires, zombies, and eldritch abominations they were eternally hungry in life. They continue to be so after death and thus eat the planet before the other guys can.

Oh geez. Oh geez. Oh geez.
This is a catastrophe on the stellar system level. And once they saturate the Solar System, they'll start heading to other stars...this is potentially a galactic disaster.

...Who wants to go destroy Xantalos's Extreme Overkill weapon?

Hey, SilverDragon, want to set up a trade relationship between NEAR and the Sky Lords? The Sky Lords would be interested in your minerals, and I'd imagine that solar panels and communication satellite access and such would be useful to them.

Well, I suppose I'll re-submit these godly applications and hope I get in as one. Yeah, no more Ascendants until the world gets less...deadly.

...I'll take a Younger God, inspired in part by your note of there being no magic.

Spoiler: Cobbok (click to show/hide)

Sphere: Magic/Mysticism
Appearance: An older man wearing robes. His exact appearance is similar to whatever the viewer would find comfortable. He does, however, tend to have a book or staff.
Description: Cobbok is a wise god who wants to spread magic to the world. He has a vision of a world whose every aspect is improved by magical methods.

Of course, if magic needs to exist before Cobbok could come into existence, that would be a...problem. Therefore, if that be the case, here's a Younger God submission I'd use instead:

Spoiler: Procella (click to show/hide)

Sphere: Weather
Appearance: Procella appears to be a tall, graceful young woman. She has vermilion eyes, yellow skin, and white, cloudlike hair. Procella is graceful and wears a simple uniform made of bird feathers and frog skins. She wears assorted pieces of jewelry and carries a crosbow. Procella is always surrounded by clouds.
Description: Procella is a moody goddess of extreme passions. She tends to be wrathful and merciless to those who anger her, but loving and devoted to those she likes. She is also a little bit arrogant, but willing to admit another as her better if beaten in a fair contest of some sort (assuming the contest is relevant to whatever she's admitting being worse at, of course). Procella empathizes with mortals and manifests among them fairly often when she can do so safely, appearing as a female of the normal race (always with green eyes).

(Some modifications made)

While I do like Procella more, it strikes me that a proper God of Magic would add more to the game...decisions, decisions...

Accept lack of clothing for now; carefully look out the door.
