Dear Mr Curly,
I have done little travelling lately because I have been so dreadfully weary. Can it be true as the old Ecclesiastes said; that all things lead to weariness? Surely not. Perhaps the opposite is true: that all nothings lead to weariness. I have a peculiar feeling, Curly, that I am worn out from something I haven't yet done and the more I don't do it, the more exhausted I become. How strange. Could it be something I haven't realised? Perhaps it's something I haven't said? Something I haven't finished! It must be very large and true whatever it is and a lively struggle in the doing but I look forward to it immensely. I know I need it. First, however, I must curl up in my chair and sleep deeply with the duck. Perhaps I'll dream of this thing and wake up refreshed and do it. My fond wishes to you Mr. Curly, and to all Curly Flat.
Yours sleepily,
Vasco Pyjama

P.S. Not having breakfast can make you weary. That's for sure!

Sabine did not have any ideas before Meesei gave hers. She was silent and reluctant until then, but immediately reacted with interest. "Right," she agreed. "Meesei, what sensations can you put through the rings?"



A flurry of planning and logistics filled the remainder of the day. Somehow, Darahil still remained awake, but spent his time directing other mages to follow his enchantment instructions and gather with Meesei to facilitate the portal. A couple of the scholars sent Meesei's way were even packmates of Darahil that she knew by acquaintance. He had spared no expense.

By the end of the day, Sabine had the most to remember. She was taught in the use of the control rod, the muffling enchantment, and the signal rings, she had practiced the signals agreed between her and Ahnasha to the point of memorising them, and she had run through the plan with everyone to exhaustion.

With a tense frown, Sabine led the new group of ten Dwemer spheres up to Ri'vashi's warriors after ensuring they all were in working order. In one of her hands was the yellow metal staff Darahil had showed them in the morning. In her other hand was a common soul gem charged with the energy she would need to catalyse and activate the muffling enchantment.

Waiting for her with Ri'vashi and her warriors were Ahnasha and Fendros. Fendros was stone-faced but waved Sabine down all the same. "You ready?" he asked.

Sabine swallowed. "Yes."

"Good," Fendros said. "The sooner we get this done, the better."
@Muttonhawk

The creation of the Primordial Spark took all of the MP that I had, but it happened so long ago that I don't even know if it was turn 11 or 10.

I'd imagine that the most destructive item in Divinus canon would be enough to bring down the Celestial Citadel without spending MP though, so if I actually do have 40 something it'd be a pleasant surprise ;p


Scroll down from the link Vec posted above and things should click together.

Making the spark and killing Kyre cleared out your might total before the start of turn 11. If destroying the citadel did not cost any might, I don't believe you used any might in turn 11 unless I missed something else.
@Cyclone I might have failed to find the ZephBros declaring might spent on anything this turn. However, bringing down the citadel probably would have been a cost. I think either I missed where the might summary was or you forgot to put it in.

Just to be clear, which were the posts you spent might in turn 11?
Why do I want to draw Keriss so much??

Also how does one draw Hain :(


I am supposed to be in bed, but I'll give as helpful an answer as I can.

You need to do the following:
1. Ask Termite to see his drawings of Tauga.
2. Find pictures of Myr from Magic: The Gathering
3. Find pictures of Tengus from Pathfinder
4. Reread the physical description of hain in their creation sheet
5. Moosh all of the above together
6. ???
7. WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE!??!
The spreadsheets are up to date.

The timeline has been lassoed with a new constraint in yellow.

The might has been given.

Divinusians. Welcome to turn 12.

For realsies now. Have fun.
"Eh, I'll say what I think when we get there," Detta answered Hanani before they got going. "Makin' our new friend invisible for a bit don't sound like a bad idea at all, but I won't assume our circumstances too quick, yeah?"




The final leg to the fort was thankfully less concerning than Detta expected. Any thoughts of Sigurx turning on them during the night was comforted by how loudly the troll snored.

Detta slowed to a stop when they crested the last rise before the cleared river valley. "Ah, look at that," She said. "I thought we weren't makin' any sort a' good time for a while there." She turned her head and nodded to the side. "Lets get to a spot where we can take a closer look."

>Perception: 20
>Knowledge (Engineering): 12

The group found themselves a place to look from a distance by the tree line. Detta shaded her eyes from the setting sun to squint at the fort and its occupants. She winced. "Look at state o' the thing. A wonder its still standing. A sorry mess that everyone man's had a turn in." She couldn't help but huff a laugh. "Not that kind, mind you."

The words drew her thoughts to the shapes walking in the valley. "They're treatin' her like a princess, though. Not a thing's gettin' cross that river without those folks up top seein'. Not before dark, at any rate. Our best bet's lookin' for a pattern of circles carved into one of the rocks like Gavirk said. Should be one of them over there." Detta waved a hand across to the larger stones on the north side of the keep facing them.
"It shall be done," Darahil said. He remained where he stood to overhear Sabine and Ahansha's discussion in case he was needed, though staying still was making him lower his eyelids until he caught himself.

Sabine hummed affirmatively but scratched her head. "I do not know enough about Conjuration magic to know how to do bond with your mind. Though, I think I understand what you mean. Do you think you could try to connect to my mind? Has anyone tried it before? Maybe you can teach me if we have time."

[Dis boi's hiding] = Did not feature in person in a post last turn.

Please note: There have been a couple of changes.

- I added an arbitrary might cap for levels 11 to 15 as a patch until we work out a better might limiting mechanic.

- We have a 75 year time-frame for this turn, starting from a year referenced as time since the the realta invasion. This window will slide forward in time every turn to encourage progressing divine storylines. The default slide will be +50 years and will remain 75 years wide, but this may change depending on the narratives in play and player requests.

- The demigod spreadsheet has been altered to be more consistent with the god spreadsheet.

Do not hesitate to ask any questions/corrections you may have.
"I will assign my pack and colleagues to it," Darahil assured. "You shall have a full section of Dwemer spheres enchanted and attuned to a control rod in roughly fourteen hours." He turned to Sabine. "Operating the rod is simple enough. You will be taught and practiced in its use when it is convenient for you."

Sabine nodded firmly.

Though only a slight change, Darahil's eyes looked a measure more fatigued at the mention of welkynd stones. "I can spare many capable mages," he said. "And I am sure there are other mages in the militia that Ri'vashi shall provide. Unfortunately, with how difficult they are to replace, it is my recommendation that our remaining stock of welkynd stones must be kept for threats to the clan itself. We have few enough as it is and no Ayleids exist to make any more."

As for Ahnasha's questions, Sabine false-started in her answer twice in a row. There were a few things in her mind at once. "...I should explain the shapeshifting more," she said. "It is not intuitive. Not as much as lycanthropy." She ran a hand back through her tangled hair. She found the right words eventually.

"When you transform into a werewolf..." She held out her hands and finally made eye contact again. "...Your body is twisted and changed until your flesh and bones are that of a werewolf. It is different with shapeshifting. It is like...without knowing all the magic surrounding it, it is not easy to understand. It is like..." she held her hands to her chest. "I am a Breton with clothes and belongings now. Then I alter the area of Mundus I am in...that caused be to be a clothed Breton...until I am a raven instead. It is like borrowing a different fate by convincing Mundus of a different past without making it true. The more that I have to shift, the harder it is." She stumbled to reassure. "I-I could take the control rod into my raven form but I could not use it. It temporarily would not exist. I would use it by turning back first. I also cannot talk as a raven. Or use much magic. It affects the way I think."

Sabine took a deep breath and continued. "Normally I would agree about keeping watch in raven form. It is just that Arinette knows I can take the form now. She will be on the lookout for ravens watching them. I could get away with looking like a wild raven flying over once or twice like Fendros suggested. I would be an easy target otherwise. I can hide better in a tree and obscure myself from the wards in my Breton form." Sabine pressed her palm into her forearm tensely. "Do you know of a way we can talk at a distance without being noticed?"
Attention All Players...Again


So after getting heckin' bamboozled by some of the stats on the spreadsheet and doing some auditing of my own, I've noticed that at least one player has updated their stats to reflect what they will be in the next turn in advance. This was a booboo on my part as I was unclear what I meant by needing everyone to update their might stats but it does make for mixed messages that probably need to be cleared up. Otherwise I'll need to spend some hours checking whether each god has or hasn't updated their stats in the same manner.

Anyway, in the interests of consistency, as well as allowing the spreadsheet to perform its intended purpose from the start (which was to prevent inconsistent GMs from screwing up the bookwork), I have a new decree:

Please update your might stats to reflect the latest IC post you made with your character where their might was changed.

Also please copy/paste the link to said post in the rightmost column of the tables to help with verification.


I will allow 24 more hours from now for everyone to gird their butts in this manner.

Again, this was my bad. Sorry guys :P
