I like the final version of your plan.
I didn't log on in time to vote for it though.

We have added your demands to Plan No Husbando (yet) in an effort to consolidate votes. May I convince you to consider it?
Mostly. Best to view the marked areas on the map as being roughly the edges of the respective villages, and it's honestly still somewhat close (should be twice as far apart, but I wanted to wait to keep bugging Siv until after I did Gaerig's halpful map). The gray area between them is an especially dangerous and difficult area of terrain, also, and is basically impassable except for expert survivalists.Sounds like we are selling ilicit booze.
Also, is that map's scale correct? As it is, both villages should be touching, they are at most a 5 minute walk away from each other.

Discovered [The Giver]; Discovered one of Attrouska's titles: The Keeper of Secrets; Discovered [The Imprisoned One], and receive significant information on him
Another great weight quickly follows, one that you fear you will never be able to escape, as well as a vague sense of three other presences you had not known before. One of them immediately grates upon your ears and being, giving you a distinct hatred for the Crone, knowing this act is of her design.
Gaerig joined her (first) pantheon, which had 4 members: Saiga, Attrouska, and two others. We know Saiga's domain: the hunt on both land and sea, and perhaps crafting. We now have another hint of Attrouska's domain: as The Keeper of Secrets, she undoubtedly has the Mysticism lines of Leadership skills. We don't know whether if she has Astrology or Omen Reading, or both, though. [The Giver] is another metaphor-laden hint and doesn't say what the spirit gives. I'd guess it's another spirit that blesses for food security and plenty, though. [The Imprisoned One] is very strange, as the title doesn't hint to what its worshipers ask it for; the hint to its thoughts indicates its original domain was stripped from it (destroyed and rendered meaningless, maybe we can gain a hint if we find what behaviors are banned by Attrouska?) and its new faith further warps it away from what it was. Further, we know Attrouska deliberately did this, so the spirit had to have been considerably powerful enough that Attrouska couldn't flat-out kill it even after she had crippled it to fundamentally change its nature. If we want to topple Attrouska, maybe we can use this spirit...?It cries with tortured anguish, watching as all it loves is stripped of meaning and function. For every faithful it suffers another impalement, and though it has no mouth, it's screams echo in the chamber of it's final imprisonment.
A hint for how Gaerig can shape society: if we Inspire for Astrology, either we also Bless for Astrology or we advance our village's era to the point a dedicated astrologer class can interpret for the non-blessed. Otherwise, the inspired just end up as mad oracles at the edge of society shunned for being nigh-incomprehensible.He acts funny, gibbering strange things on occasion and telling people the successes they may meet in love and life. Maybe you will do it again sometime, considering it was somewhat effective when the others you'd blessed translated for him.
Monsters! I'm so happy we finally got the option to make some monsters! Tempted to just spend the maximum amount of Sustenance and an Avatar rank to get the biggest monster, but I know that's not prudent. Can we just spend max Sustenance for a normal beast, though? Or like, 12 Sustenance, which we can regain with the Ambrosia we have. We don't have any other use for it. (And then we can make more monsters every turn!)[] Lay with <[Animal]>
-[] Contribute a rank of Avatar to sire an Ur-beast
-[] Contribute <4X> Sustenance per trait or <9X> Sustenance to choose a trait
Hang on, are you saying you wouldn't love our child no matter what? What kind of parent are you!?I am asking about it because this will be our First-Born and I want it to be the best it can be. And for that Saiga is best choice for father.
We did a whole bunch of stuff and got more stuff but I don't care because Monsters! Bought Avatar 3, and now we can start Gaerig's horde of children! Preferably Monsters, though demispirits are an acceptable consolation prize.

I also want to Explore to see if we get another quest, or to find new and interesting animals or people! So, if a plan has Explore and Monsters, it'll have my vote.
Oh. Oh my ...
Hang on, are you saying you wouldn't love our child no matter what? What kind of parent are you!?

Even if a child is born with tentacles with mouths on them filled with shark fangs and is faceless I would love them. The sad thing is we aren't going to be creating monster child as Firstborn since we don't have traits for it so I want the best father we can get for it to be the best it can be.
But we do have the Traits for it. Literally all we need is Avatar 3 and we have that now.The sad thing is we aren't going to be creating monster child as Firstborn since we don't have traits for it
Traits don't disappear from the buy chart, but they do get a much smaller piece of the pie by comparison (they go down to having roughly 40-30% of the numbers from 60+). If you let yourself pick up 5/4 traits, you will explode into a cloud of energy. When I said Harzivan would explode if the rules suddenly changed, I was speaking literally.@Powerofmind When we hit max traits do they disappear from the buy chart?
If they don't, what happens?
So we don't get bonus legend if the child manages to earn more legend than we invested?Siring an Ur-Child is a major expense and gamble. If the child doesn't survive to acquire the amount of legend committed, you lose the legend you spent to make it. If it does last that long, however, you get the legend you spent back, with 75% interest (rounded up)!
