[The Overseer of Challenges, Dungeon God]

"Stop it!"
Oppose the Fourth Banner as well.
Use Nature Marble to throw a ton of trees into their faces. Lots and lots of them.
These aren't normal trees, these are Ironwood Trees, which are denser and harder than normal trees.
She will try burying them in trees, so she can make her escape.
If she can hold on long enough, there may be a world she can hide herself in.
Co-op opposition, ho!

[Mother Protector, scion of the First Prefect]
"We do not wish to be imprisoned in a bag!"

Tree boost! Get some growth in there, and some growth in our area, that there be entangling and roughness of travel for others! Hopefully to not get sidelined and swept in a bag

...and flee with my sister-whom-I-only-met-recently!


"It ** not imprison****. It is a **fe home. Happy bag."

The bag now has a smiley face on it.

Unseen Passages

Shortly after her untimely death, Mana's Titanic spark escaped to parts unknown. Only time will tell what effect this had, but one thing is certain: There is no resurrection for fallen Titans.

Turn 1.0: Mo(u)rning

((OOC | Discord))

Children of Mana

The late Mana's dalliance with the First Precept soon produced two Major Goddesses: Mother Protector, Goddess of Blood and Growth, and the Overseer of Challenges, Goddess of Trees and Monsters. Moments after the First Precept left to stop the Fourth Banner and Legion One's attempts to meddle with the fate of Mana's body, the Fourth Banner chased down the Overseer of Challenges and Mother Protector, soon stuffing them into a bag unceremoniously. Although Midan and the Forbidden Observer managed to take Mana's soul and attunement to Shape respectively, the Fourth Banner was able to seize her body and dumped it in his sack along with Mana's horrified daughters. Luckily for them, they were soon able to cut their way out of the bag and, guarding the body of their fallen father, began setting up defenses against reabduction by the Fourth Banner.

Multiple Titans, from their birth mother the First Precept to more suspicious parties such as the Hollow Dreamer or even the Fourth Banner, offered their protection to the twin goddesses.



Slight Repairs

The Defender took some time to sweep the of Zo'Vass' clouds of filth and the scales of the steel serpents off of the Pillar but was soon lured away by the irresistible chittering of the Meta Machine. Some undisclosed amount of time later, the Meta Machine expelled an armored figure which grew into Lutrina, Demigoddess of Vengeance and Mercy.

The Forbidden Observer collected the steel snakes flying around and snapping at nearby Titans and tossed them into the Suns.



The Forbidden Hors-d'śuvre

The Forbidden Observer ate the lump of Shaperness obtained from Mana and became aware of a massive yet nearly empty invisible dimensional structure in the Bubble. After some time, the planar body faded out of Titanic perception once again. The Forbidden Observer felt a closer link to the principle of Shape, however. (The Forbidden Observer: +? Corruption, +? Envoy of Verdana, +? Shaper)



Flight of the Twins

While patrolling the world for godlings to protect, the Fourth Banner found the Twins once again and descended to capture them but was suddenly seized by an attack of great weakness. Mother Protector and the Overseer of Challenges worked together to raise a tangled forest between them and the Fourth Banner while protecting their mother's body, the former of which was an activity the Overseer found herself most skilled in. By the time the Fourth Banner had recovered his Titanic power, the Twins were nowhere to be found in the dense wood.



The Sinking of Aquarius

Zo'Vass poured the power of Earth into a rock and grew it into an immense boulder that he then hurled at the now-unguarded Aquarius. Unwilling to see a world wasted, the Last worked furiously to induce the incoming meteor to carve out a hollow world fit for the splendor of a Dark Sun out of Aquarius instead of destroying it, reshaping the deadly projectile and planet and leaving a trail of glowing shards to feed the lichens seeded on the outer surface of the shell. Midan joined on the side of destruction, calling upon and energizing the fires hidden far beneath the watery surface of the planet. As the giant meteor approached, thick clouds of steam shot up from the incandescent Aquarian surface, and Aquarius glowed its last before shattering, felling and incinerating the Pillar Yggdrasil. Some of the fragments of Aquarius remained as a thin ring around the now-cleared World Seed. The Forbidden Observer soon came to destroy Yggdrasil but found it already deactivated.

The planet Aquarius has been destroyed!
The World Seed is available for building again
The Pillar Yggdrasil has fallen!



The First Eclipse


As the Hollow Dreamer marched on the the Twin Suns Helios and Halios against the Shining Revelation, the Revelation and Zo'Vass coaxed the Suns to flare again, slowing but not never quite stopping the Hollow Dreamer's inexorable march. She cast web after web at the unfortunately named Halios even as Zo'Vass and the Shining Revelation reeled before the short-lived splendor of the Suns, pausing only to inject her unspeakable venom into the trapped sun. When the Dreamer found the sun satisfactorily covered, she swallowed it whole, and the once-glorious Halios burned all the way through despite her preparations. And although the Helios, pulsing in panic, soon tried to escape, it, too, was soon captured, envenomated, and swallowed. After what seemed like an eternity of the suns dissolving to the deathly juices of the spider's stomach, the gathered Titans sensed the liberation of the Sun Seed and its subsequent implantation in the Hollow Dreamer's body as the Dark Sun ignited.

The Eater of Suns has eaten the Suns!
The Hollow Dreamer serves as the Dark Sun in addition to her role as a Rebuilder



The One True Edict

The Forbidden Observer proclaimed the One True Edict, elevating English above other, novel languages, declaring Engrish anathema, penalizing secrecy by imposing a secrecy tax of 10%, and punishing vulgar uses of the Seven Forbidden Words (in addition to tying them to the natural cycle of the universe via a Pillar of the same name). Some of the Titans seemed to support this wholeheartedly, while others appeared less than thrilled by this first of many Edicts.



The False Edict of Give Free Marbles to the First Precept

"The audacity! The nerve of these Titans! They come in and rewrite reality to change our prices!"
Quote from: *The False Edict of Give Free Marbles to the First Precept
Marbles now cost 0EE an are completely free to the entity "First Precept". There are no drawbacks due to this when purchased from the Destinies for the entity "First Precept".
The First Precept proclaimed this Edict in secret before the full effects of the One True Edict had propagated. Far shorter than the former, this False Edict simply declares Marbles free for the First Precept.
"Since we are not in position to handle the sudden influx of thousands of Marbles, we shall instead be selling 2d6! Marbles to the First Precept per action."
"Thif doef probably mean we get to fpend more time wif you Titanf, though! Befidef, none of you complained when the Observer proclaimed the One True Edict!"



The Spider and the First Flame

Bright, fractal flames teased the shadowy Hollow Dreamer, who knew Midan and bore an unnamed Major God in the form of a flame made of spiders. This child stayed close to the Hollow Dreamer at all times, terrified by the stories of the godnapping Fourth Banner.

Pleased with the progress on her budding Spider Pantheon but wanting more, the Hollow Dreamer created the Dweller in Darkness, Major God of Fertility and Royalty and First Consort of the Dark Sun. The Dweller in Darkness appears to be anxious to start producing heirs.



The Pillar and the Goddess

While Yggdrasil lay destroyed and scattered around the World Seed, a new Minor God named Aquarius Novasphere appeared, and a stunted sapling began pulling itself back together from pieces of Yggdrasil. Unfortunately, the Forbidden Observer noticed and promptly pulped the recovering Pillar.

The bright shining burned the very soul of the Stareater as it chased after them, onto the surface, causing it to begin shriveling up even as it desperately fled into the protective embrace of the earth. But the sun could not last forever. Each night the Sunbeetle had to push it past the horizon, into the earth, all the way back to the heart of fire. This regular travel created pinholes in the darkcage that the Stareater eventually gave up on repairing, fire pushing through the pinholes up to the surface, erupting into fire mountains.
-Scrolls of Night

The Hollow Dreamer reveled in exultation. She had succeeded, succeeded beyond her wildest expectation, and darkness rolled from her like waves. The Titans congratulated her on her success, even as they fought over the corpse of her nemesis. She had reached the apex so early, and saw only more mountains to climb in the distance.

Life was indeed, very, very good. The only small concern was the matter of Shining Revelation's response to all this, and the actions of Fourth Banner in kidnapping newly hatched godchildren. This would be the focus of Hollow Dreamer in the near future.

Little flame, I and your father name you Stareater. Let this name be as your ambition for the future. For now though, stay close and safe in the dark.

In the darkness, Hollow Dreamer did mate with the Dweller in Darkness, producing several children, of which at least 2 were Archangels.

[Free 1] Mate with Dweller in Darkness. [+7EE]

[Spiders] The Hollow Dreamer creates her realm, a giant spiderweb spanning across the inside of the Hollow World. [1S+1H+4EE]

Quote
The great Dark Sun, the Hollow Dreamer, shall stand suspended in the center of the world by her web. The Dark Sun may be orbited by moons and celestial phenomena, to create weather, seasons, and other effects upon the planet; these moons shall move along their set paths as determined by how they sit upon the strings of the cosmic web
As the Defender began forming the shell of the world around Hollow Dreamer from the fragments left from the destruction of the First, Hollow Dreamer does not lie idle. She begins weaving massive, yet intricate and delicate, webs spanning across the entire world, keeping it in place and guiding the movements of the heavens.

And at the center of her web, she sat, a Queen upon her high throne.

They nets of dark silk shiver and twist if you look at them too long, and are filled with giant spiders woven from Darkness, who can only survive upon the web. The spiders are mere brutish beasts, yet territorial and aggressive to any interlopers.

"Come hide here by my side Stareater, until you feel ready to take on the world."

((Okayed this with KJP, though he can still say if it's not kosher.))

2 Essence is shared with/to Midan
2 Essence is shared with/to Zo'vass

Hollow Dreamer supports the Titanic edict with 3 essence and 1 Air marble.

"Ye Titans, I have another proposal for your eyes. It is quite similar to that of the One of Ends, but it has been modified, in pursuit of compromise - which was, in turn, based upon my original plans."
Quote
The great Dark Sun, the Hollow Dreamer, shall stand suspended in the center of the world by her web. The Dark Sun will be orbited by moons and celestial phenomena, to create weather and seasons upon  the planet; these moons shall move along their set paths as determined by how they sit upon the strings of the web, pushed along by the Meta Machine's celestial mechanics. The dark sun shall provide warmth and pressure, but not light, to the world below; what light that comes from the heavens shall be provided by moons and constellations alone. In this way, the Dark Sun will stabilize the world, preventing it from collapsing inward.

The crust of the planet shall surround the Hollow Dreamer, creating a hollow world. The crust is made of a vast variety of lichens and mosses, to create a basis for various biomes in their various compositions and natures. This crust shall slowly, gradually give way to a layer of rock as one progresses "deeper," or further away from the sun, which will comprise the outermost layers of the world.

The outer surface of the world shall be lit by another set of moons, but their light is cold; heat must be found by taking refuge deeper, creating one's own, or settling near one of the great lava seas found on the surface. Some of these may reach far enough to have vents on the inner layer, prevented from flowing too far in either direction by the balance of forces without and within.

Transit between the two layers could be accomplished, but would be difficult, requiring some kind of blessings, knowledge of magic, or simply great amounts of time. Rifts may exist that connect the outside to the inside, and transit will be easiest along the strands of webbing that travel outside the shell of the world.
"Speak now your opinions of how Creation ought to be shaped, to avoid more senseless death."

The Defender shares 3 Essence with Zo'Vass, as well as 1 Astral marble.
Also use one free action to go have a dalliance with the Last.

((Moons probably need to be created separately, I am semi-planning to create at least some of the webbing separately, but probably not all of it depending on how everything works out.))

This still has the approval of the DARK SUN.

The Relics of Mana

After some searching, the First Precept located Mana's body, still with his daughters. He feels strangely disempowered near them.

Midan stomped on the ring formed from Mana's soul a few times, shattering the Manastone. The shards were later scattered in the destruction of Aquarius.

With a grand shout, the Forbidden Observer announced the formation of the very first Pantheon! The Murder of Foreign Objects, or MoFO for short.

[BEHOLD!
I, the Forbidden Observer, Shaper of Sight.
Midan, Rebuilder of Light.
Ogretch Da Fowl, Creator of Might
And Hollow Dreamer, Rebuilder of Might.


The four of Us form the Pantheon that shall be known as the Murder of Foreign Objects, for the sake of unifying all Titanic aspects.

You will think twice before challenging us, as we are sworn to protect each others. We shall retaliate with extreme prejudice on any offender, or enemy of the Pantheon.]
