Snip

In practise, who would have thought that massive genocide would happen so frequently just because of people's political ideals and/or beliefs.

A powerfull leader and a crisis can accomplish pretty much anything.

For his lifetime.

Oh Jesus you're going to make the Hermione character play as Voldemort aren't you? xD

What gave you that idea, how she made Tom Riddle as a character?

Darvi, you figure out it is an area-effect spell that causes blindess with an extremely bright light.

And the "No shit, Sherlock"-award goes to me!

Bears attack with their claws.

Let's make some assumptions.

1. The floating mountains work, in spirit, like volcanic islands. They sometimes erupt from "hot spots," and eventually crumble from erosion or what-have-you, only for new mountains to rise. They also move some on their own, starting at almost a foot a week but slowing to a few inches per month once it gets off the ground.
2. Aside from their own natural movement, the floating mountains don't move much or easily. Artificial influence can, however.
3. Race-by-race: The elves abhor flying mountains. The kobolds, including chimera-people, love them; in fact, one of the reasons chimera-people were originally created (aside from accident) was that they made good messengers and porters and such between flying archipelagoes. As for the dwarves, their kobold legacy leads them to also live on flying mountains, but they turn the enchanted stone into more of "flying fortresses." (Imagine a normal dwarven fortress, but flying. And neither caverns nor magma.)

The planet has about twenty-seven continents and a hundred major islands or archipelagoes on its surface; most are controlled by elves. However, five continents and a couple dozen island groups are under kobold control, three continents are under contest between elves, dwarves, and kobolds, a couple nearby archipelagoes are controlled by a republic of Zebramen, and the flying mountains mean that most areas of "control" are broken up by warlords and such from above. As it is, there are two dozen large islands or small continents in the air, plus an innumerable number of smaller islands a mile or less across. While 17 of the large flying landmasses are controlled by kobolds, the remainder and many of the smaller islands are under the control of the efficient, decentralized dictatorship of nomadic dwarves.

23, I'm good.

hmm. Write that one in my spellbook as "Possible enrage + buff spell". Try word.

Could you name the spell?

Spoiler: Tamara's ghostly rambling I (click to show/hide)

"You remember that flesh, blood, and bone staff I had? Yeah. Would be useful.

...Okay?

wait- Is Mues dead, or did he just get turned to stone temporarily?

Permanently. Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention something. Hold on.

Why would we use manarack on nallistae or catapults?
