The First, The Last

Oh, for the humanoids think Harmony from the game Endless Space as the most common, the intricate crystals can get HUGE, more than big enough to live in with rooms and everything with floating bits inside it that can move around and communicate more through 'singing' and one or two per patch, while the disks would act sorta like trucks for transporting large loads throughout our lands and tanks on the battle field, their reality warping is pretty 'weak' when trying to do a lot or for wide area stuff.
 
they didn't spend 50 years in Lightning Death Land, mostly they were running around the perimeter waiting.

Ancestor Scythe thinks you should be careful with what you make. And careful how you treat what you make.
 
Skarn
You are Skarn, The First of the Skarn.

You are a Rat. You were a Rat. Then your master found you, then your master warped you. Now you are Skarn. Ratlike, Pestilential, Growing.

From your template was the First Generation created.

Now, you and those of the First Generation must choose how to raise the young already growing within the bodies of the Females. How to raise them to serve the master without them deciding to rebel one day, far from now, when you and the others are dust in the wind.

Culture VOTE: (Culture affects Population Types and Caps, as well as available options without Personal Intervention)[Note: basically I am cribbing from the Age of Wonders 3 Classes for this, the cultures won't perfectly map because they have bit heavier influence but they will map to the themes from that game.)

Theocrat: Master is God, Worship Master. (Mechanical bonus: Rebellion Rolls don't happen, Mechanical Penalty, Time and resources are frequently wasted on grand religious works.)
Dreadnought: All that is shall SERVE. (Mechanical Bonus: Military and Industrial Complex is central to culture, resources are rapidly replaced and easily acquired, Mechanical Penalty: You conquer, you ONLY conquer, Diplomacy is just a prelude, trade agreements are vampiric.)
Sorcerer: Magic is Right. (Mechanical Bonus: Everyone is a mage to some degree. Mechanical Penalty: Unstable power structure, higher ups are not always competent at anything but Magic.)
Rogue: Can't backstab? Serve with Loyalty. Can Backstab? DOOO EEET.(Mechanical Bonus: Intrigue, Intrigue, Intrigue. Mechanical Penalty: EVERYONE is disloyal, also Paranoid.)
Archdruid: Nature is Love, Nature is Life. (Mechanical Bonus: Terrain is your friend. Mechanical Penalty: "Civilized" Races are your enemy.)
Warlord: *Insert Major's War Speech here*. (Mechanical Bonus: Everyone fights. Mechanical Penalty: Diplomacy? What's That?)

Seems to have the least drawbacks. Also, we can (hopefully) eventually transition into personalized worship instead of grand works, reducing the drawback.

Theocrat means everyone is raised as a Fanatic. You are honestly probably going to get fewer rebellion rolls with Rogue than the resources that get spent on Religious Works.

Maybe we can convince them that by building Grand Works instead of putting the resources to use, they are disrespecting the gifts we have given them? Then, they will execute anyone who wastes resources.

At least, that is my goal.
 
I really think the archdruid thematic would be better for rat people, or rouge, than a theocracy like that christian state we have that's controlled by the pope.

Archdruid sounds like a bad idea. Why? Because it will prevent us from making industry, one of the things we need to do if we want to become a superpower.

Why? Because the concept of a rat society where everyone backstabs everyone for the fuck of it, is too good to pass up,

I was very tempted to go Archdruid because of Lightning Death Land, but I've decided to go with this for now.
