[quote=@Antarctic Termite] There's no bears on Turn 0 Galbar, nor trees nor fruits nor deer, but that doesn't stop us having a bear goddess. Landmasses at tropical latitudes will exist (see checklist) and wetlands will formally naturally over time as people make plants and those plants spread over the world, but all our creations will be made in character when we get there. [/quote] Just a note, continuing from this: there's no reason to assume that the people or wildlife we'll end up with are anything like what's on Earth. You can create any Earth-like ecosystem you want, but you can also make otherworldly environments that will settle right in on Galbar. For example, you could have an entire coastline where every plant, animal and person is some bizarre form of demon, all existing together in perfect ecological balance. Horned spirits fly in the air, trees of fire grow from the magma pits, and many-eyed monsters graze on them, and it's not any more or any less natural than the lion and the cow in the next continent over. Things will change over time and go their own way as you might expect them to, so the creatures and magicks of different regions might mix on their own accord, but generally things will work out the way your god wills them to- if they're paying attention, anyway.
