Alternatively, that gauntlet? It may, although this is a wild guess unsupported by any evidence apart from what little I know about the whole incident, a weapon capable of permanently killing the gods.

Which is why people want it so much.

Final Fantasy Mod
V.1.2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RACES:
Playable:
The Qu - Indomitable, blue, genderless creatures who have a knack for using cookery as weapons, armor and clothing. Have access to the Runic Forge and Mognet Post.
The Moogles - Small, furry cat-like humanoids who are known for a mail system. Have access to the Runic Forge, Mognet Central, and the Summoning Circle.
And of course the Dwarves.
Both have the same nobles as dwarves and are played the same way.

Other:
Tonberry- Green,reptilian creatures who are skilled with knives, ambushes and sneaking. They are also incredibly obssessed with revenge. Will trade the Chef's Knife, an incredibly useful knife that can one-shot quite easily.
Cait Sith- Small humanoid cats. Nothing much special about these lot.
Cactuar - Humanoid cacti. Have the ability to blast needles at anything that moves. Simplistic, with not much else special about them.
Ronso - Feline humanoids, only taller, stronger, and much better at fighting. Imagine less tree-loving elves.

Workshops:
Summoning Circle: A workshop which has to ability to 'summon' powerful megabeasts....for the right price.
Runic Forge : A special forge wherein you can attempt to forge some of the series' famous weapons, like the Excalibur.
Mognet: The Mognet System, constructed into a workshop. Useless for now, but stay tuned for updates!
Bestiary- A database on everything you know about the summons.

Fauna:
Encounters/Pets:
Catalyst- A small, unique creature with the ability to turn into a summon.
Chocobo- A loveable ostrich-like bird. Can be mounted. It has different castes with different powers.

Adamantoise- A large tortoise-like creature with a shell of pure adamantine.

Bosses:
Antlion- A gigantic insectoid monster. If captured, you can tame it and use it for your army. It's bodyparts are also INCREDIBLY valuable.
Warmech- A giant, nuclear-powered robot. (Yes, this was a monster in Final Fantasy.)
Sin- A giant, whale-like monstrosity. Mainly uses Gravity attacks, which will seriously slow down your troops.His main attack, Giga-Graviton will pretty much one-shot your army should they come in contact with it.
Shinryu- Dragon thingy. Stronger than Bahamut, so ignore the description. Has similar attacks to Tiamat, but luckily, isn't immune to them.
Tiamat- A six-headed dragon. It's immune to fire, ice and thunder, making it quite annoying. Has fire, ice and thunder attacks.

Manufactured Nethicite - A weaker form of natural Nethicite.
Auracite- Somewhere between the two for strength.

Summoning System :

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

-That's right, there's a summoning system in this! You can now summon Alexander or Bahamut to fight for your fortress.
-To actually get into using this, you need several catalysts. Catalysts are pets you can buy at embark. They're unique! Why? Because they are the
only creatures in the whole of existence who can channel the power of gods!
-Firstly, you need a Bestiary. Build one from a table, a chair and a usable stone.
-Then, you need to make paper, ink and vellum.
-After doing that, you need to make an empty manuscript from ten paper, two vellum, and one tanned skin for binding.
-Finally, you need to make a manuscript on the desired summon.
-Oh, but you're not done yet! You still require a summoning tome and a summon essence.
-Make the Summoning Tome the same way as you make a Summon Manuscript.
-Make summon essences by attempting to create them from the information you have on the summon.
- Finally,you need to build a Summoning Circle from 5 usable stones. After that, simply pasture some catalysts into the circle. (Preferably, your circle is in a locked room with constructed walls around it to maximize exposure.)
-Select your wanted reaction and keep using it until you get your summon!
-And Voila! You've got a summon. As of the moment, the transformation is irreversible and infinite : I will change this if I hear enough people clamouring for it.

Magic!:
-That's right, there's magic in this mod now.
- Minimize the amount of secrets generated to get the best out of your world.
-Magic includes summon magic (Bahamut and Alexander only), Fire magic, Thunder magic, Ice magic, Wind magic and Gravity magic.
-To find these magicks, find a tower with a slab pertaining to it.
-You can also make potions from several specific encountered monsters.

Currently working on:
-Giving Qu unique interactions when they eat megabeast meat.
-Adding more summon magic.
-Giving adventurers easier ways of getting magic.
