Time of the Gods: Into the Amber Age

Reader mode
Hahahahhahahahahahahha, that was a great update.
Too bad one of our babies died, but the others lived, so yay!

I didn't vote for the winning plan, but while I slept/worked it seems to have turned into the plan I would have voted for if I'd been able to read it. So it all worked out. Yay!

The only bad thing is that we don't have an Avatar to make more children, but that'll be fixed soon hopefully.

I would just like to point out that if we'd created an Ur-Monster instead of a regular one, it would've been cheaper for us to regain our Avatar.

yeah, hindsights a bitch like that.

But that's what compromise gets you, a bunch of not completely happy people, explosions, and dead babies.

Basically... fuck compromising, my way or the high way from now on. :p

I want to highlight that creating a truly aquatic race is difficult at this point. Pure monster bases are animals, and unintelligent save for whatever aspects we add. They cannot worship. Pure demispirit bases don't have easy access to waterbreathing, since our GM had stated that Water aspect humans would basically have the breath holding ability of a dolphin, enough to go out to sea for long stretches, but not enough to exclusively live underwater.

So we can't just slap Aspect of Humanity on an octopus crossbreed and get cephalids out of it? Well, very, very tiny cephalids, given that our available octopi are tiny and adorable. But I'd be cool with a race of six-inch octopus people. I had thought that putting humanity aspects into animals would make them intelligent, but perhaps I've misunderstood the inheritance system.

If Water humans just get super-lungs, could we stack additional water-related traits on them to make them truly aquatic without going into animal traits? It'd be more expensive, but well within our abilities to stack Ocean Affinity and/or Spirit of the Sea on top of Classical-Water. At some point they've got to get so much water in them that living there exclusively becomes feasible.

Were just going to get some aquatic animal aspects to get them waterbreathing.

duh.

we've already got fish and octopus down there.

all we need is a sea slug, and some sort of reptile and were set.

They'd still be monsters at this point, which measn animal-level intelligence. Likely they'll reach the level of chimps, but they're still unlikely to count as a useful worship-base.

I think we need something like Chimera. That should make the combination of Octopod and Human more fluid and thus make them more humanlike.

Not quite. We would still lack the glory that is the giant isopod. Look into those deep, silver eyes and tell me you don't want to have lice the size of a dinner plate.

Tl;dr: We introduced the stone age to the concept of explosions (again)

I'm running damage control

Vote for me so we can keep it unanimous and get another update today

Shit, I can't even read this update yet but the promise of another one is something that should never be passed up.

Also damage control is a good thing I guess, too early in the everything for explosions.
