Gods, Men and Everything in Between

A Desert of Another Kind

The southlands were empty. The vastest expanse of formless clay still remaining in the Natural World, theirs was a tempting realm for any god or goddess that sought to further their role in the shaping of creation. It was there that the Naschyan divine would plant her second flag, at the other end of the world from their icy seat. His power would conjur, at first, a land resembling Naschya. Relatively flat and featureless, the ground barren, skies wide open to view to the yet non-existent beings on the ground. All of the chaos of created space would end, solidified into an orderly construct, a place for the first time in its existence. Then, though, at once, the Naschyan blueprint would end, and a new sort of land would be created.

Heat emanated from the earth. The layer of dirt and soil that Solumna had created to blanket the ground dried and cracked, moisture falling down and into the bowels of creation. Life sprung forth, but stunted—born dying. Trees here would die every summer from the heat, returning to life for a few months in the cooler parts of the year to grow a half inch before they died again. The weeds and shrubbery would live off a few droplets of water a year, their leaves barely enough to sustain the smallest of herbivores, tiny mammalians that would be prey for the snakes and desert foxes that ruled the land. Just as in Naschya, the winds would rule this new land: The Systyn Desert. Winds of heat would sap the life of any being not suited to the sands, creating another pole of hostility of climate to mirror Solumna's frozen home.

Actions.

1. (Shape Land, 3 Power) Create the Systyn Desert, at the southernmost end of the eastern continent.
2. (Shape Climate, 2 Power) Fill the Systyn Desert with extreme heat.
3. (Shape Land, 3 Power) Expand the Systyn Desert northward.

It costs them +1 to use *Command Race* on them, unless you are Alcadeas.

@Theodorable

Should just be Cost + 1 (due to Blessing of Alcadeas).

From the OP:



Have you changed your mind since you wrote down the actions or did you write them down wrong?

My next IC is in progress.

Let's all fill out the map by having our gods compete to see who can build the tallest mountain.

Is it possible for us to colonize the new areas of the map we create with pre-existing species? I imagine that it would not be so great a trial for a god shaping a new land to pluck a few dozen human families down there as well, being as men already exist and are already multiplying greatly.

Dang, Telios just starting off with two domains.

Also, the Matak look cool. I take it the Solamu are woolly mammoths?

Do we gain any power for Turn 5? You gave us 7 for Turn 4.
