Oh okay.

John Azure Doeman.
Azure's a middle name.
Azure is a type of blue.

>>116351
Oh, right.
I misinterpreted the instruction.
Here you go.

Waiting for red and green team.

sorry mate, i would love to join, but need to go to work in 2 hours

2/3 - Blue team
0/3 - Red team
0/3 - Green team

I'll do red

>>116875
I shall lead the Elves to glory!

>Build tree houses made by singing the larger ones into forms. (action or technology)

>Herbs are used to buff elves based upon their job and demograph (culture)

2/3 ppl - Blue team
1/3 ppl - Red team
1/3 ppl- Green team


Turn 1 Starts Now

Everyone have fun. Pick a summed up action and then link it on this post.

I'll check back again after all three tribes have locked on their actions

I'll go green team bois

I suggest we prospect for metal, afterwards begin construction of basic boats to help our fishing.

Action: explore the mine
Tech: discover smeling

>>116913
Elves will prosper
>build wooden houses for shelter.
>build simple fishing boats to start fishing

>>116939
>Build tree houses made by singing the larger ones into forms. (action or technology)

>Herbs are used to buff elves based upon their job and demograph (culture)

>>116913
I don't think we should bother with fishing for ages. We have a massive forest that will do way more for us.
Plant magic is clear too. We already have herbilism. Now for potions and magic.

>>116954
Ahh good idea greenkin. Magic will do for thee. Although if there may be a battle between the few tribes, I'm more of a physical attack person.

>>116913
>Explore
>Tech

>>116926
Okay.

>>116966
>Explore
Where?
In what direction?
North, south etc.

>>116960
we could always do stereotypical archer-faggots in the bushes like lothlorien elves.

Though we both probably want to be more unique, so we need to plan something interesting.

My elf-idea is them being Eragon elves but with steroids/GMO-equivalent/magic-buffs and wacky shit whilst the society is peaceful for the most part.

OP, are you going to treat the three races as truly different, like roughly CIV base standards?
Or are they merely flavourtext?

Still room on green team?

>>116986
East where the mountains most likely are.

>>116992
You talking like eating plants that make our eyesight 300 times better and shit and using wooden canes to cast spells that will burn down the entire forest and shit?

>>116992
>OP, are you going to treat the three races as truly different, like roughly CIV base standards?
Yes

>>116986
East. I want to the check the quality and quantity of the wood from that forest over there.

>>116994
Yeah there's room don't forget to create a name and put (green) at the end. That will fill our team.

>>117001
Something like that would be pretty top-tier keks. Though without any harming of our awesome forest lol.

Maybe spend next two turns on herb shit and getting bows. Or perhaps animal search and training start?

Quite a lot of choices desu.


>>117002
sweet

After the new green arrival, the other two tribes have a single space remaining each.

>>117029
>>117009

My suggestion for next turn would be to explore our surroundings

Also I think we shouldn't forget about advancing culturally as well.

>>117037
who needs culture?
kappa

>>117037
Let's save all this for next turn. But we can brain storm. All of green team being elvish elder and green kin, and I of course who has no relation to elvish name, let's see. What shall we do. Advance more in our herbal/medicinal/potion area next turn
>>117029
Then we can start creating civilization as in houses and stuff? Or any other ideas?

>>117052

Thats what I was suggesting, in the next few turns.

>>117051

Considering its a cultural civ I'm guessing there are advantages to advancing culturally.

Reserving a blue spot, thinking of a name and action now

>>117078
Done with the name, reserving actions for next turn seeing as they're pretty much decided already.
>>117004
>>116998
shout out to my human friend
next turn I suggest we also investigate kelp usage in some ways

>>117052
yes, by singing favourite trees into suitable accomodation.
>>117069
kappa indicates sarcasm or joking.

So we got our decisions made!

So.... anyone else want to be the DEUS VULT type of humans?

>>117094

My bad

>>117090

to expand on kelp, a list of possible directions for our research:
>short term
is it an edible variety? I'm assuming so, but it's easy enough to discover anyway
>medium term
is it harvestable? what techs may we need in order to grow it?
>long term
can we burn it for fuel? Also according to wikipedia "kelp ash can be used in soap and glass production" which is something I didn't know before

also I want to point out this very important fact:
>Natives of the Falkland Islands are sometimes nicknamed "Kelpers"

>>117112
I'm tempted to be racist as fuck, but we'll see when we meet other races. It's either that or being the diplomats between the two, since elves and dwarves traditionally don't see eye to eye...

>>117127
Such ambition with kelp.... you remind me of a certain sun tribe that couldnt find anything but kelp. If im wrong I guess you just like kelp.

>>117139
Sadly I've never participated in games like this before... but I've finally managed to secure a spot!

Kelp is cool in my book.

>>117149
Ah ok then. It's just I was in another civ where the sun tribe had shit luck and all they could find was kelp.

Jfc blue team pick something already XD

>>117163
We already connected ours to the recap post, make sure you guys did too.

>>117160
Oh, we also have a sun vs moon thing going on. Maybe we should bury ourself in the sand at night or something...

The filthy Reds need to repost to the first turn header.

>>116936
>>116913
Did it for them.

>>117216
Thanks famalam

Wait do we already have houses and enough infrastructure to survive or did OP just plop us down here with nothing but the items we were given?

Or am seeing this in a micro-perspective too much?

Turn 2 Starts Now

Blue - You found big forest and more wood. New Tech.

Green - New tech. 2 ppl die, while you experimenting with herbs.

Red - Your people started to explore the mine, you found some dark stones, and caves.
The caves was too big and needs more special tools to explore certain area. New tech.

Im assuming were naked bums with fishing rods, I may be wrong though.

>>117266

>>117266
Culture: test all things on animals or others before using it on elves, and when using it on elves use tiny amounts and slowly ramp it up safely.

Action: Explore north

That's my initial reaction.

>>117271
in this case for turn 2 I propose
>action: build wooden houses
and for the second action either tech: kelp harvesting (or something) or something cultural (maybe we fear the moon so much we retire into our new houses as soon as the sun sets?)

>>117291
The houses are good, but we should probably set up some leadership. I suggest that we set up a kingship where he coordinates everything to make sure things run smoothly.

>>117287

I like these options although I think we may want to try to catch/domesticate some animals before we just start force feeding them

33KB, 740x598px

>>117300

>>117326
yes, I have changed my mind now that we have the full picture showing the changes.

How about our action is scouting for animals in our forest?
And culture being "don't waste elvish lives, when possible use animals or non unique objects"?

>>117266
Action: Build Wooden Statue of the Sun Goddess
Tech: Basic diving technology

>>117322
Good idea, but I'd rather go with an oligarchy for the sake of variance. Maybe the ones who dare sleep outside at night the longest?

The fuck is up with captcha anyway? Is it this board?

>>117349
>statue of the goddess
Houses first please, I'm tired of sleeping outside.
Maybe we can fit the statue in the cultural action?

>>117344
Standard action: explore south and try to find domesticatable livestock
Culture: Dwarves are encouraged to carve their way to the center of the planet. Those who make further progress are revered as heros

>>117354
Thats really interesting the most divine member of the group becomes the emperor? Like they become more intune with the sun making them stronger and a more capable leader?
>>117349
You know were supposed to discuss our actions before linking them to the post.

>>117347

I like it

Scout the forest north particularly looking for animals to possibly catch and domesticate.

Elvish lives are most sacred and should avoid death at all cost

Maybe we can add something to it like after we test it on the animals, if they are killed their bodies are sacrificed to our gods for them giving their life so that we could learn and live.

>>117359
Hm, I was under the assumption that the culture action was more of a "state of mind/way of life/new way of thinking" thing than anything tangible so chose build.

>>117364
No. I don't. This is my first time playing something like this.

>>117381
Its alright, didnt know you were new as some people try to peddle their ideas despite the majority wanting something else. After all we all need to learn somewhere.

>>117364
Kinda, but isn't that just the sun tribe all over again? I'd rather go with a test of courage against the terrible moon, and I guessed more than 1 person would "survive" the night, so that's why I thought of oligarchy
>>117381
mine too, so we'll have to trust Leroy

I propose (without linking them yet)
>build wooden houses

>>117364

Probably scout is Action and Elvish lives sacred be culture.

>>117394
Sounds good, we get home's and we get a semblance of a social structure.

>>117406
sorry for the flood of posts but... about floods... we might fear the moon because of the floods if we build pile dwellings instead of normal wooden houses!

>>117399
>>117360

>>117420
Whats a pile dwelling?

>>117392
Glad you understand. I'll try to be more cooperative next time.

I was just under the assumption that we can do our own thing because we each get action points. I didn't knew it was the team as a whole.

>>117394

Also, yeah. A house would be nice.

Alright so its whoever can be outside at night in the dark longer have a higher status, ans those piledwellings then?

>>117479

Pretty much what you linked. Maybe it could be cleaned up a bit but I think OP can understand it.

>>117470
With this set up we've got the foundation for a prospering port town.

>>117480
yup, already linked, see >>117470

Who defeated his fear is stronger now.
You built new houses on coast.

Turn 3 Starts Now - autumn

>>117686
sweet

>>117693
ok guys some suggestion for the next turn
>explore south along the coastline
>tech: kelp harvesting
we could alternate tech and culture unless some special event pops up

also OP, is the culture tree an actual tree or just a list? I'm not seeing links yet

I propose to my fellow humans that we research diving technology so that we can fish and harvest kelp better.

>>117700
I second this, especially so that we can dive underwater if the moon decides to pop out

That rock fucking scares me

Well elves what are we up to now. It's autumn. It's turning colder. We need to begin making warmer clothing and thicker house walls. Maybe research a more efficient way of fire rather than burning down our own forest?

>>117697
Maybe we could explore farther out at sea? I feel we might find something usefull out there like whales to hunt, or schools of fish.

>>117686
I'm gonna guess the dark stones to be coal?
Action: Burn dark stones
Tech: smithing two-handed weapons (axes, mauls, blunt edged weapons)

>>117718

Fire may not be a bad idea.

I think more exploring would be a good idea. maybe East this time.

>>117700
> research diving technology
What do you mean by this?
You don't have even stone tools or clothes :^)

>>117556
in order to be as safe as possible whilst still being fully combat capable, I reckon
Action: build bows and arrows, or some other similarly effective ranged weapon.

Culture/Research/Magic: power over ones own body via magic is learnt. This has the benefit of stopping Elves from dying to poisons since they can separate the dangerous compounds if something bad is accidentally eaten.

>>117718
personal-body magic could help a lot.

>>117725
I don't think we have the right tech, we ought to research navigation first. But then what standard action could we take in the meanwhile?

>>117742
Perhaps begin animal domestication? Or find a easy to grow crop like wheat or potatoes?

Dinner time, gonna try to be back ASAP but I may miss the rest of the turn. I'll recap what we have so far:
>tech
either kelp or navigation. No idea how to dive yet
>action
explore south or west, but we probably need navigation to sail west
>culture
something religious? maybe later though

>>117739
We have to start somewhere. We shall use wooden tubes for snorkels!

>>117757
gotta find animals first and where are we going to grow crops if we live on the beach? Either we relocate east or we try to grow kelp
>>117762
fantastic!

really gotta go now, be right back

>>117741
Oh hey the humans are thinking of getting animals. If they do maybe we can trade some of our knowledge of magic with them?

>>117762
Maybe we could find a source of metal? Im not sure we will get much out of snorkeling when kelp grows near the surface and we use lines to fish.

RECAP POST

link your summed up action here

>>117757
I propose that we tame some big cats (or just cats if that's too much for us) from the forest using our abundant supply of fish!

>>117786
Question is where do we find those? Shall we spend this turn exploring?

What will our second action be if not diving tech?

>>117773
I would really prefer to avoid giving up magic to any non elves.

It's something they can't catch up to us once we start, since Elves are naturals at it. And we have very few numbers.

However, we could trade our hallucinogens with them in exchange for something.

So I assume you are fine with my idea? I will slightly adjust it to assist trade in some way/easy to modify.

>>117790
>Action: build bows and arrows
>Magic/tech: discover internal magic that will include ability to avoid dying from non-instakill poisons, body temperature, modifications/shapeshifting to an extent.

Presumably once a certain magic has been opened up it will gradually progress as the citizens learn it and gain experience.

>>117825
We own the forest senpai. Though we are peaceful you must ask rather than just think they're your stomping grounds

>>117825
I get the feeling trying to tame a big cat would be a bad idea. Maybe explore past the forest west into the mountains for metal?

>>117827
That's actually a better idea as your reasoning backs up what you mean. Go ahead and let it rip son. Also btw the humans plan to do business with us.

>>117840
Fine. Can we has cats please Elf-chan?

>>117850
Okay. Exploring it is. There sure to be a mountain in-land so I suggest we go south east were the forest near us is.

>>117875
I'm a leader of this tribe and I say ye boi but you have to give us something equal in return please senpai

>>117875
As tech maybe research larger fishing ships?

What will be the new tribes?

Can we propose some?

back again!
>>117897
our fishing tech is already advanced. How about researching better ships in general? So we can sail the sea in the future!

>>117875
we haven't discovered any animals at an industrial/usable level.

We might get animals, but a bit later, preoccupied with doubling down on being immortal so that our numbers never go down.

>>117856
*grin*

>>117875
>>117892
we might also be open to trading some of our common healing poultices in exchange for equivalent resources.

>>117900
I think that we should just increase the amount of people per village. Three Civs is the most we should have, since OP can't efficiently add more whilst keeping the turns going at a reasonable rate.

>>117892
We can give you the knowledge of fishing rods as long as you aren't the "everything is sacred your a savage for killing a mouse" type of elf.

>>117909
Do they have lakes or something though?
We'll probably be better off just trading excess fish (if they aren't vegetarians) or KELP

>>117907
Thats why I proposed they get bigger so they can hold more and be safer to use.

>>117922
yeah but we should probably just say "better ships" or we'll just up our fishing tech

so we're almost done. About exploration, why south-east? I thought we were aiming for the mountains?

>>117897
I think we should think about discovering ship building techniques that would makes our ships more durable before we think about larger ships. The thing might collapse from it own weight with our current tech. Also there's the propulsion issue. We need to find a more efficient means of water locomotion than paddling with out hands.

>>117934
I suggested west past the forests, the other wanted to go SE if we want metal though we should go west.

Blue tribe what you doin' ?

>>117908
Greenkin is there a way we can talk about this game behind the scenes. That way we can plan and scheme better?

>>117944
How about we just say "tech: sailing" and see what happens?
>>117945
I think you wanted to say "east"? I'm also for east or even north-east, but we gotta decide fast

Oh and I've just noticed that "ship building" is not a part of our tech tree yet so all this time we were kelping and fishing by the shore with hand paddle powered logs. (before wood we were dive fishing)

>>117969
Ahh I see. Well this is actually my first "quest" I guess you could say. I didn't know if everyone just doesn't everything out in the open or if it's actually nose to the grindstone try to win

Anyways, green kin what's the plan now that we're near immortal.

>>117989
Before it was basic fishing after the turn it became advanced fishing so i assume we have something like a canoe or dingy.

>tech: kelp harvesting
I think OP will tell us the first uses for it, and long-term I remind you we can make glass for kelp ashes, and then stone+glass=CATHEDRAL
for standard action I guess we should start building a stone temple, and we can "culture it" next turn. How does that sound?

Well I suggest we make cloths out of dried algae.

>>118183
But we only have river rocks for a temple we would need a quarry to get enough for it.

>>118160
This amuses me.

>>118183
Oh shit!

Wait, aren't we on a coast? So there's gotta be a shit load of beach sand around us. why don't we build a stone furnace and cook up some glass from sand.

Tech: torches
Action: explore the large caves

>>118183
kelp - food source
dried kelp - basic clothes

>>118189
I'm not sure if that's a tech or build action, especially considering we're not actually harvesting kelp yet. Maybe OP can clarify?
>>118201
True that. Maybe a Stonehenge kind of thing? Built so as to do something cool when it's midday or something.

>>118204
The sand--->glass idea is fucking great! But I'm not sure we can do much with glass yet, we do miss a quarry as >>118201 pointed out.
>>118208
So we're already eating kelp right?
Is "clothes out of kelp" a tech or a build action?

>>118206
Ok

What about humans?

>>118162
>explore east
What is your second action?

>>118209
Maybe build a type of stonehenge allowing the people to know what time it is making them more productive? As tech make glass using a basic oven?

>>118221
tech

btw anyone from sun tribe here ? :^)

>>118228
I say we go with this
>build stonehenge templeclock
>tech: glass
John are you ok with that?

>>118235
You need more stone for this

>>118234
oooh we gotta decide between glass and clothes then
keep in mind we might not be able to make glass yet because we don't have the right rocks
thus I change my vote to
>build stonehenge templeclock
>tech: kelp clothes

>>118235
Yup. Proceed.

>>118245
ok so definitely >>118249
linking to OP >>118223

>>118245
oh wait you meant for glass or stonehenge?

>>118223

Improve our food situation. Either through agriculture or hunting animals with our new bows. Whichever would be easier for us to accomplish

>>118271
Stone I guess. Small river rocks ain't gonna cut it.

lol, yeah I guess you're right.
We keep exploring then.

>>118562

I basically linked what you suggested for this turn. I'm not sure how much more you want me to do unless you just want to link it yourself.

Guys lets get some education going on. A room is set apart for the children to be taught by a adult so they learn the tribes abilitys like fishing etc.

>>118604
yeah I'm sure our trade agreements would be just great
>here have our excess food and some complimentary clothes
>t-thanks, try these fruits, maybe just maybe they won't kill you
>>118616
we should also get religion, maybe we could merge the two aspects? something with the sundial though, I'd like to make good use of it. Any ideas?

Of course this is for next turn since we've already used up this one. I'm just saying in the off chance OP misses it: we were quick this time!

>>118633

>Advanced medicine
>Bow and arrows

Yea those wouldn't be beneficial at all

>>118633
We use the time of day as zodiac style signs and predict the future with it like horoscopes.

Like, if a man who was born on 6 am daytime will have good luck this season and stuff like that.

>>118653
oh shit forgot to name myself.

>>118653
Nice idea! It makes me think though, to tie it with education: we could draw the zodiac around the sundial with different symbols representing fishing, building, kelp harvesting, sewing, food preparation etc... and then depending on when you were born your fate would be decided, ants-style
also children born at night should be killed or shunned as "children of the night"

>>118668
oh also exploring, and we could replace "building" with "tinkering" so we get inventions covered when we're not building anything major (like I dunno a CATHEDRAL)

>>118668
We turn them into night guards.
shunned by society by birth honored in service to the tribe because we have that culture where we value night bravery. Also our very own red shirt army

>>118680
Better yet train them to be coldblooded killers dedicated to defending the tribe to redeem themselves.

>>118687
Yes!

>>118615
Nah dude you're Gucci you know what you're doing. Take it from here and I'll be home to finish out the rest of this till tomorrow

so we already have some idea for next turn
>culture: the Wheel of Fate
Drawn around the sundial. Children born during the day will get their future "respectable" occupation (fisher, builder/tinkerer, kelp harvester etc., but not guard/soldier/explorer) decided by it, depending on the time of the day. Children born during the night will be the guards/soldiers/explorers/watchers and will have to redeem themselves for all their lives.

Now I'm just waiting for this turn to resolve so I can go to bed.

Rails, to move things to and fro is more important then production.

In large cave you found hundreds of big glowing mushrooms.

They can be used as source of light or you can make from it glowing dye (on sword, armors etc. so you don't need a torches).
Also you can make potions from it but you need more ingredients and knowledge...

Turn 6 Starts Now - Summer

>>118857
>>118919
>>118907

As tech we invented glowing dye.
I will add it later. :^)

>>118919
Looks like you got your wish. What should we do with them? Using them as a source of light seems like the most obvious use, but should we go into potion making or keep going full dorf and shun such magic?

>>118940
>Research the green drink mentioned earlier
>tame animals in the forest.

>>118949
k, are the glowing mushrooms edible?

Culture: On the sundial symbols are carved that determine a persons occupation like fisher, builder, etc, but should a person be born during the night hours they will become a warrior of the night. There job is to be a elite force dedicated to protect the village by acting as guards, scouts, and soldiers to redeem themselves for being born at such a unholy hour.

Tech: The first warrior of the night is dedicated to research weapons for the warriors to use and to train them in the art of combat.

>>118966
You can check it. :^)

>>118955
I think we should devote 1 action to studying the mushrooms for better uses I'm everyday and magic stuff.
>Mushroom people have good reperoduction and high production and intelligence.

>>118971
Daaaamn son good call way to use your brain.

Op am I doing something wrong I feel like you haven't seen my action posts I'm trying to play since I seen the other guy on my team bailed. The last elf is still here but God knows where he went.

>>118978
I agree, let us find out all the uses we can for these mushrooms, including testing if they are a possible food source. So do we go full tech this turn and keep trying for the rails as well as studying mushroom uses?

And I doubt the elves have a lot that we need, but I'm not directly opposed to it.

>>118994
Why not trade with the humans? We have the most in common after all

>>119025

This turn lets plant seeds and research magic books

Next turn we can use our new paralyzing poison to go out and catch a bunch of animals from the forest and maybe explore or something with what we uncover from seeds/magic book

Sorry semi afk.

>>119095
First we need to make contact though which will be hard as im pretty sure your boxed in by mountains so its up to you guys to tunnel all the way through one.

>>119102
>This turn lets plant seeds
seeds are planted, they are growing.

Well what's the plan now elvish, we have poison arrows and it's fall. We can probably trade our wood for some dwarf rocks and build some big rock structures such as a big rock wall around our area or even used our magic to conjure up some more of our lost population?

>>119103
Okay if we start digging a tunnel will you look for a land/sea route over the mountains?

>>119095
Fish and timber does sound nice.
>>119103
Don't worry, we are dwarves, that makes us very good at tunnelling.

>>119115
Of course we've been trying to map a route to you guys for awhile now. Not sure how long it'll take but hopefully it wont be to hard .

>>119102
Good idea that will help our food.
Let's also name the squirrel. I wanna name him nigger wbu?

Also we can probably start researching some stuff that will help us live forever, like us our monks to help us learn how to heal cuts and wounds much quicker

>>119133
Then we wish you the best of luck. Also, shouldn't you give your turn to op? Seems you're the only human around right now.

>Also build a tinkering shop for bombs and traps and such

>>119171
No we dont but we've been wanting to voyage to either you or the humans to trade and such

>>119216
Rune magic it is.

And a tinkering shop sounds good I guess, not sure how much we need traps at the moment but it could be useful for making new tools in general.

So does this look good for this turn?
Tech: Rune Magic
Action: Build Tinkering shop
>>119242
Good luck, and bring plenty of lumber once you find us.

>>119254
Did you have any building ideas? I just said tinkering because I want explosives.

>>119216
RUNE SPHERE - bonus to armors and weapons, faster building, summoning guardians and in the end Earth Elemental.

ILLUSION SPHERE - bonus to speed, awe, fear, spectral horde and in the end summon wraith .

ALCHEMY SPHERE - create rare items, brews, potions, summoning guardians, and in the end creating golems.

>>119277
>Rune Sphere.
Building things faster is super important!
What do you think Dwarfbro?

>>119271
Explosives is a good motivation for doing things. Of course a great forge might be useful as well, so we can pump out tons of metal goods.
>>119277
Interesting.
>>119302

>>119277
Also, op. If you missed it the humans made their turn. They just forgot to link it at first. >>119171

>>119464

>>119423
Not sure myself, the three cultural ideas we have so far seems pretty solid.

I'm not sure about the tax thing, as I'm not sure if we have taxes in the first place. How about simply making hard work the primary virtue of the dwarves? Something like this
>Working hard is acknowledged as what being a dwarf is about, productivity is what all dwarves strive for.
>>119464
A free action? Awesome! And I'm pretty sure we'll pick the Rune Sphere. Alchemy is a close second though.
>>119481
Thoughts? Rune or Alchemy?

>>119481
>Free action like we get the magic
this.

>If we pick RUNE SPHEARE does that mean we can make golems like the alchemy sphere golem or can we not make golems at all?
Nope, in rune sphere you can't make golems.
Only in alchemy.
summoning guardians- this will summon you something like guarding stone statues-totems.

Golems =//= Earth Elemental.

I going to sleep guys.
See you tomorrow.

>>119464
For the elves I say, we bring good fortune by worshipping the trees, and the grass, and the winds.

>>119506
Damn night DM see ya tomorrow

>>119506
Sleep well op. We'll have our actions ready by the time you get back.

>>119521
Wait, Red Anon, I think I know what we should do for our Cultural action.

Our first cultural bit mentions our ancestors dug themselves out of the core to discover the open world. And that we are afraid of the surface. How about we change that, and state that "Because our ancestors dug themselves upwards, we should not shun the surface that they sought." And then we can finally get our own wood, and maybe build some towers.

What do you think?

>>119551
That sounds perfect, having a new generation of dwarfs who want to explore and tame the outside world!

>>119596
Well, then we have the culture down. What do we do for magic? Do we pick Runes, or do we rather want Alchemy? I'm down for either, but leaning towards runes.

>>119612
Yeah I'd stick with RUNE, golems are nice but we can always build robots if we need to.
