<br>
A</b>ll around the landscape, prostrate forms lay still sleeping, or slowly rising in the faint dancing circles of their lanterns. One by one, the lanterns rose, and the stone faces that formed an endless grey carpet below their feet gave way to the silent, but animated faces of other people... other bloods in the darkness. At first swarms of stinging insects plagued at them all, one lantern not enough to keep them at bay -- but as couples formed, and groups coalesced -- the insects kept greater distance, and with even just three or four lanterns they would scatter away altogether. Some saw this for it's obvious symbolism -- light pushed back the pain, just as it pushed back the dark.<br>

Others saw the light as a needed curse, revealing their place in the panumbral darkness. They held their lanterns low and their crude stone knives high, distrusting the strangers in the dark as they found each other...<br>
<br>
All around the landscape lay rising lanterns, some hopelessly isolated, some already in the company of a chorus of other streams of light. <br>
<br>
The whispers of their ancestors seemed to urge them to find safety, and a brief respite... somehow, so that what little knowledge they had could be leveraged before some catastrophe befell one or all of them.<br>
<br>
As if to answer, Growls and Roars sounded in the distance -- and in response to those, Screams of horror and despair. The farthest and most isolated lanterns winked out, one by one -- crashing to the stone and winking out, or vanishing entirely in the dark...<br>
<br>
Fear gave way to defiance though, in some groups, and some individuals. The ink slid from their eyes and they looked to the other bloods, and their lanterns. In the moments to come, Leaders would distinguish themselves and followers would fall in line...<br>
<br>
<br>
And then it came... The floating orbs, glowing orange, unlike a lantern -- their odd bio-luminescence made them appear as upside down balloons, trailing into the sky on grey-black tendrils extending into the vaulting darkness above. Two score of these bouncing corpulent lights, rising and falling as if to bounce over the landscape... in a pallid imitation of the movement of lanterns over uneven ground. Those close to the collective of lights strung into the sky could hear a low rumble of something gigantic overhead... and a windy noise akin to a "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH" broke the silence of the infinite dark.<br>
in the darkness, some of the clandestine lights saw this collective of illumination as a savior or at least an alternative to the unbroken dark... and one by one those who followed the lights... some transfixed, some frenzied to keep up... suddenly, almost in unison, splashed into some inky, oily, shiny-surfaced water. The water was turbulent as evinced by those that could hold their lamps high over what rapidly dawned on all that observed was a trap by an enormous predator... in the splashing their lanterns dimmed, and in the growing dark could be seen THE HOOKS that descended from the mass of bouncing orange lights. Impaling, pulling skyward... to some unknown misbegotten fate in the dark above. <br>
<br>
Some of the trapped elected to drown instead, filling their lungs with oily water and diving never to rise. But still on the outskirts of the spectacle more lone lanterns headed for the trap, the ground-skimming hooks searching for them and homing in on their light, or warmth... who could say.<br>
<br>
<br>
No-one could see this better than the folk on the "black glassy knife." -- a landform like a hill, or more like a wall, stretched ever outward into the dark. What parts were not hopelessly dirty sparkled back the light of lanterns in a entrancing, darkly way... the "Glassy Knife" land-feature was six feet wide at the top at it's widest, and in places ten feet high.. The sides covered with sharp protrusions, but the top smooth, as if the rest of it had been broken away by something impossibly large. Bloods awoke astride and around this landform, the elevation giving them a little bit of range to the distance of their lanterns. All the better to witness the horror unfold on the oily lake.<br>
<br>
 <br>
Small congregations of lights began to dance, and wink out -- no lanterns coalesced in numbers to push back the darkness, only to attract predators, or reveal the snare that was the dancing lights as soon as it was too late. <br>
<br>
<br>
You all stand somewhere in this chaos. Some alone, some in small groups... but one thing is clear, there seems no way, no where, to hide.<br>
<br>
Can some among the chaos bring the light together?! Can some find sanctuary in the devouring darkness, and share how to hide with their kin?<br>
<br>
Will some just lift their weapons and defy whatever comes?<br>
<br>
As if to mock your efforts, the howling windy noise above sounds like a horn:<br>
<br>
<br>
"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!"<br>
<br>
_____________________________________<br>
PLAYERS: Declare what you wish to do in the darkness, and I will also handle this event on the discord. Right now the light of the lanterns is like a dinner bell, but the clever, those that will lead, can perhaps make something greater, do something greater, than die in this darkness... (post away, but over-complicated plans will fail, and some characters, especially if brave, may not live to see turn two...*)<br>
<br>
(Though they can create new ones after their valiant predecessors)<br>

<article class="message-body js-selectToQuote">
			
				
			

			<div itemprop="text">
				
					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="font-family: 'times new roman'">The olive skinned woman awoke to a world of darkness, was this the abyss? Had she died and her soul passed onto into the hellish nightmare that awaited people like her? Perhaps. Her arched brows furrowed as she tried to recall anything but nothing came save for broken, isolated, fragments that confused her even more. A handful of people moved around her, some with lanterns, some without, they crowded like sheep eager to find a shepherd they could blindly trust to lead them even if it was to the slaughter, at least then they wouldn't be responsible for their own deaths. In the dark reaches of her heart, she hated them. She held up her lantern, the small flickering light seemed to burn continuously and she could not figure out why she had it or how it was working so fine.<br>
<br>
Her green eyes scanned around her and fell to the ground, to the faces. "Stone faces, odd," She stated as if it was something that could escape the notice of those around her.<br>
<br>
They stared up at her, their mouths closed as if they had secrets they refused to yield to the fleshy meatbags that now trod upon them, she knelt down and ran her fingertips across the smooth stone, it was surreal. At first she thought the faces were identical, but they weren't. Now that she was close, she could see the slight differences in their noses, their brow, their eyes, their cheeks.. Her eyes trailed off to the distance, as far as the light of her lantern would allow as the faces continued into the darkness. Who would carve such a thing? How long had it taken? How many men had toiled in the dark, to carve the countless faces, were they a warning? Were they a tribute to those that had fallen? They surely could not be naturally occurring, could they?<br>
<br>
Aayliah stood once more and stretched, the thick corded muscles under her scarred spotted skin flexed and bulged as she worked out the stiffness of before and basked in the power that lay within her body, the pride she felt in her chest as her eyes scanned those around her and took in their smaller, weaker frames. She moved about in the darkness, being careful to avoid stepping on the noses that protruded out of the ground, having little desire to harm the bridge of her foot by stomping down on it. An inky black wall stretched before her, black glass like protrusions suck out, towards her. As if to try and bare her from entering, or perhaps, bar <i>something</i>.<br>
A scream split the air, the woman whirled on her heel, the sharp rock she had pulled when she first awoke raised to ward off the danger that.. was not there.<br>
<br>
She stared out into the darkness, to the dim lights far away as they started to go out. One by one. Each one accompanied by a great scream, but there were more, "Something is hunting us," she stated, once again, as if those gathered around her could not figure that out on her own.<br>
<br>
 Orange lights that danced, so much like their lantern but not quite. She was tempted to go to one, but she did not know why she was. It was as if it was calling to something within her, something primal. Her lips pursued to a line as she fought off the compulsion, she nearly snarled at herself, as if she could intimidate her psyche into falling back into line. Before the compulsion could gain strength, the orange lights moved and she watched a great hook come down to impale one of those who had given in. Their bodies spasmed, their hands came to grip the hook as blood seeped down their chest to fall onto the faces below. A gargled scream erupted from the man's voice before he was pulled up into the dark sky, a snack for a hungry beast, "A trap," Aayliah snarled.<br>
<br>
Her eyes scanned the area, to the inky black beach, to the wall next to her, her brow furrowed as her mind struggled to come up with a plan, but they were prey... and this world was filled with predators, predators she could not see, could not understand, but it took only a single misstep for the predator to become prey and, sooner or later, she would hunger.<br>
<br>
Aayliah formulated a plan, a plan to hunt, a plan to kill, a plan to take back control of her life, or at least, the illusion of it. She would move to the wall and attempt to use her great strength to break off a piece of the spikes, to use as a spear, perhaps if she used some of the basic cloth on her body to form a handle. If she had time, she would move to the lake, to the edge, avoiding the other lights as best she could and, if it was there, use the mud that she hoped would be as dark as the water to cover and coat her flesh. To lather it thickly to help conceal her in the darkness and ward of the insects that would struggle to get through. Dangerous. Very dangerous. She did not know what lived within the water and animals were at their most vulnerable when they bent down to dip into the pools.<br>
<br>
If all went well, she'd gather a few people that looked meek, have them hold her lantern. A beacon in the dark, a lure.. bait. She would hunt the beast when it came to feed, either she would die, weapon in hand, or <i>she </i>would become the predator in the dark.<br>
<br>
<b>Plan Recap [Not sure how many actions we get, so if only one, just make a spear]</b><br>
Make Spear [If possible]<br>
Coat her flesh in mud [If it exist]<br>
 Get a few 'sheep' to stand around her lantern and wait, trying to blend in with the darkness, and using the lamp as a lure to hunt what beast comes for a meal.</span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Adam grit his teeth as he snapped back to reality from the horrors of witnessing what was happening around him. As if in response to the danger around him, memories of certain symbols called glyphs immediately flooded his mind that if enchanted on items could give it effects and if put on certain positions around an area would form what's called a "ward". Different kinds of symbols appeared and they all seemed to be jumbled but one particular ward seemed to stand out and fully formed in his mind first. He has a vague feeling it was the most important out of all these things called wards that is forming in his mind and this is the particular one that he needs the most right now.<br>
<br>
Sanctuary? Seems fitting, what he or anyone else need right now is definitely a sanctuary from all the crazy shit that's happening around them, a respite at the very least. He doesn't know if he has enough time to form a complete one but he will try his best. He looked around him and immediately frowned at the cowering fools. He was afraid as well but he definitely wouldn't stand by doing nothing and helplessly die. <b>(REFLECTIVE PERK?)<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Hey! You fuckers! You're gonna die! Your limbs torn apart or you'll get consumed by beasts if not monsters if you don't do anything. You don't want that happening? I don't care!"</span></b> Adam picked up his rock and moved to an empty spot and he started scraping it on the ground to form a symbol.<br>
<br>
<b><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">"W-what do we have to do?</span>"</b> One of the cowering fools tried to stand up straight but was ignored by Adam as the latter was too consumed on his work <b>(PASSIONATE PERK)</b>. After he wrote the first symbol, it glowed for a moment before returning to its normal state as if nothing happened. He then looked at the guy and everyone else around them. <b><span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I'm doing something important, don't get me killed as well by bothering me. BUT if you really want to do something, make sure I don't die because what I'm doing might be very well our last hope. AGAIN, don't bother me. Anyone can die but me. If you must, then die for me."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)"> "Y-you want us to die for you? Are you crazy?"</span> </b>One of the men started frowning but Adam immediately cut him off.<br>
<br>
<b><span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Shut the fuck up, you cowering piece of shit! If craziness is what it takes to survive then I am crazy! Like I said, I do not care about you! If you want to die doing nothing then by all means go ahead. But if you want a chance of living, then resist the best you can! If I finish this masterpiece, you'll be treating me like your father but that's disgusting and I don't want that."</span> </b>Adam moved to another spot, before he started drawing, he looked at those around him straight in the eyes and said, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)"><b>"Don't disturb me. Remember, die before me otherwise there will never be a sanctuary in this land. As for the rest, everything I said applies."</b></span><br>
<br>
Adam then squatted and started to scrape on the ground yet again and drawing another symbol. No matter what questions the rest asked, Adam doesn't answer or rather, he wasn't able to consciously perceive their words as he was too consumed on his work. <b>(PASSIONATE PERK)</b><br>
<br>
He will aim to least complete the preliminary structure of the ward to give him respite. If these cowering fools buy him enough time then perhaps he'll be able to get a permanent one up. <br>
<br>
<b>(I think from how Adam acted, it applies all his quirks? Eccentric, Blunt, Reclusive, and Socially Awkward. He adopted the "Crazy" personality profile and not the timid "Reclusive" profile.)<br>
<br>
TL; DR</b><br>
Adam will attempt to form a Sanctuary Ward around the area. He frankly told other people to die for him, if they must, so he can finish the Sanctuary and if they want a chance to live.</div>

A rang in the head, a pumping gush in the veins. The smell of blood and still air... Legs and arms sprang to life as screams and rushing blood echo in the ears. Niko's purple eyes rang open, his naked body quaked. He breathed deep, bracing himself for whatever comes next. He had some small cuts from the stone rattling against his skin, a little trickle of blood. It felt surreal but also thrilling at the same time. Was it time? To die? Or to show some forgotten adversaries he beat them all? Niko felt a chill. He looked at his body as he stood up. He looked fit enough to survive, and Niko was glad. He felt confident in his image, in his appearance. His hands grasping together at the back of his head forming a triangle with his back, his eyes closing with a smile. He looked a bit unfazed by the scene around him, though the cautious eye could see him tremble. This was a lot more than he bargained for, if he did at all. He couldn't remember. However, with a breath, Niko plunged those feelings into his stomach. Live or Die. It was no time to feel, that could wait. All he knew was there was some hot babes around, and oh did Niko like to get down. Of course, there was no time for that yet. He needed to be crafty, though he seemed to be better crafting puns than survival tools. But, Niko felt ready and knew that he'd figure it out. His beige skin twinkled off of his lantern's light. His slivery black hair accented its light as well. He handed off any cloth he had so that someone else could warm up. Niko didn't feel the need, and he certainly didn't care for looks. Niko felt comfortable in his own skin, and he felt nice showing off his stuff.<br>
<br>
The light felt good, but the dark felt neutral. Niko could feel its cold embrace but he still felt warm. He rather not go quietly. He smiled into the abyss, giving it a wink before doing what needed to be done. He sat down by the Glassy Knife and began doing what the whispers told him he could. He began to form the stone shard into a hatchet, something useful for all kinds of things. And Niko particularly liked hatchets for making him look tough. Girls like that. He began to cut off the glass protrusions, keeping some distance and knocking etches on each side to prevent any problemos...<br>
<br>
Niko paused, talking to people wasn't something he liked to do. Drama and drama always followed behind, but he couldn't be a chooser right now.<br>
<br>
"Hey, come over here. Its all good, you're off the hook." Niko waited, "Bum bum tzz. Anyway come over here and help me. If we cut these off and put them in the ground, it'll keep these things away from us."<br>
<br>
Niko paused, waving with a smile.<br>
<br>
"Who's in?"<br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445250" style="display: none;"><br>
<br>
1. Mold the stone shard into a hatchet, using it break off more material as necessary. Handing off any cloth he has to another, preferably a woman.<br>
<br>
2. Begin cutting off the glassy protusions around the Glassy Knife to use as spikes to borrow into the stone, making some reasonable deterrents to any would be predators.<br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445251" style="display: none;"><br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content">Mindforce: uses psychic stress to disrupt an enemy's concentration and battle prowess, and some say with practice read minds. Bloods with mindforce grant bonuses to themselves and/or allies in contests/combat, and more easily give the opposite to rivals. It is said there are other talents this ancestry can bring in the darkness such as sensing the unseen, but such powers are developed over generations in a bloodline...<br>
<br>
A pale albino woman, a mindforce blood of bloodline ciun, with a FOCUSED and CONTEMPLATIVE personality (perks), BLUNT to a fault in conversation (quirk). Wears threadbare clothes, carries a lit lantern and sharp rock.</div>
		</div>
	</div>
</div></div><br>
Fear. Immobilizing fear. Eostre of Ciun meditated on this thought from her seat on the feature of black glassy knife, atop the smooth surface of it's blade just past the jagged crest and climb. She forced herself to bear witness to the culling of the monster above on those it had lured thus far to it's bioluminescent tendrils below, and soon called upon her very first memories of life in this damned place.<br>
<br>
Awakening in darkness, swarmed by insects, immobilized in fear, setting down the sharp rock in her hand to lift and manipulate the lantern she had opened and snapped shut to capture some of the insects within, and now the existential dread that permeated the present, in the hope of inflicting the emotions tenfold on the lost, save those around her that went willingly into the dark.<br>
<br>
Experimenting at first with the closest of the lantern bearers that were walking away into the darkness and towards their almost certain doom, Eostre used her mindforce blood to associate the monster with her powers to draw it's unknowing prey to her.<br>
<br>
"Guide their way with a show our own." She spoke without breaking her attention to look to the few souls observing her. And so they did, or those that followed and understood her cryptic intent, moving not to mimic the orange lanterns themselves, but to signal, and beckon, with changes made to their choreographed dancing rhythm and light brightness she took it upon herself to direct every time she took short breaks from her endless work to bring more lantern bearers together before they were left all alone.<br>
<br>
Opening her lantern again once she was done and the insects within looked dead, she tried eating their cooked meat for sustenance.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The pain, the suffering, the strangely warm temperatures.<br>
<br>
The man woke with a start, noticing first was the darkness and the almost complete lack of clothing. Something seemed off. But he wasn't sure what. Was it the screams of death that came from the darkness after roars and squelches? No. Was it the completely unknown and horrifying aspects of the land around them? No. Was it the fact that he was holding a lantern, a gnarled club and a shield all at once?<br>
<br>
Right, that must be it. Well, either that or the fact that he didn't know anything from before waking up from a strange and terrifying nightmare into an actual living terrifying nightmare. Yes. Perhaps that was it. <br>
<br>
He was Haas Vivaldi. He felt like he could lead the world, or at least this small band of almost naked individuals. He knew that he was a leader, but not just that, but a powerful warrior. He had to lead these people and they would be grateful for it. They would certainly show him the gratitude that was appropriate for someone of his standing.<br>
<br>
But first things first. First, he needed to gather up some people and then he needed to survive. While hopefully killing at least one beast to prove his worth and power.<br>
<br>
Taking his belongings, He took the lantern and attached it to his gnarled club, creating a Fire Mace.<br>
<br>
Part of him wanted to just charge in and stab the creature with the flying balloon lights that was stabbing people on hooks, but unfortunately, he didn't have the necessary range to do that. Soon. Soon he would kill that creature.<br>
<br>
Using his Fire Mace to locate people, Haas Vivaldi spoke up. "Come with me and we'll take down any beasts in our way to get to safety." <br>
<br>
He pointed at "The Glassy Knife" <br>
<br>
"From there, we can make our way! Now come on, let's fight for our lives. With me!" (CHARISMATIC)<br>
<br>
<i><b>Actions: Using Charisma, gather people to follow Hass Vivaldi.</b></i><br>
<b><i>After gathering people, move them together in a sort of formation towards The Glassy Knife, fighting any monsters that attempt to stop them from doing so.</i></b><br>
<br>
Perks: Charismatic, Ambitious<br>
Quirks: Narcissit, Big Mouth<br>
Inventory: Fire Mace, Shield</div>

</blockquote><br>
Aaliyah Epimoni needed to make a spear. she used her rock to chip away at the shards of glass... and got <b>two shards of Obsidian </b>that she tucked into her clothing, bound up so as not to cut her when she moved. (<b>smart)</b> But there was no haft... no shaft to attach the blade to... she looked at the wall for a spine of glass... something long that could be used as a spear, being careful to wrap her hands in cloth and not get cut on the black and purple glass that seemed to mock her as the screams drew closer.<br>
<br>
The lambs, the vapid, wide eyed prisoners of fear around her... they copied her. most hurting themselves on the craggy rock, but one pulled a medium-length staff of glass, shaped like a prong, out of the ground. She saw this other blood hold the spear aloft, and saw the other lemmings start to turn from her and look to him for leadership...<br>
<br>
<br>
So she stabbed him with a shard. <b>(Greed)</b> Right in the heart, she stabbed him and took up his spear with a cloth-wrapped hand so she would not be injured. She impaled the Bleeding man on the spear and flung him into the darkness where something in the lamplight lunged and snatched it out of the air.<br>
<br>
She didn't have time to talk about it -- but they were hers. Their labor was hers -- she wasn't dying for them, and if they were lucky they wouldn't end up dying for her. Aaliyah hissed at the others, brandishing the spear -- not holding it aloft like some idiot's trophy. <br>
<br>
"Wrap. Your. Hands."<br>
<br>
Silent shock as the other misfits stared at her course direction...<br>
"Make. A. Barricade -- and he will be the only one who will have had to die."<br>
<br>
And poking the ones that tarried, she got a small but growing clutch of these chumps to set up an arc-shaped barricade of debris and rocks against the glass wall behind them...<br>
As the low wall went up, it was fortified with sharp bits of glassy stone... at one point some simian-type thing leaped at the wall and impaled itself, bounding back into the darkness before they heard it slump to the ground. The thing was horrible. It had no skin on it's face... just red eyes, snot, and drool. <br>
<br>
Aaliyah left the bunch of saps in their huddle and ran to the water's edge -- the oily water stank, the black sand seemed to burn at her feet... but she washed herself in the "Mud" <b>(Smart, Skillful) </b>making sure to cover every part but her eyes and mouth. the spear no longer shined in the lamplight, difficult it was for her to apply her camouflage while keeping the water, and oil... off the lantern. <b>(Gains oily rags) </b><br>
Some dog like horror, eyeless, it's "nostrils" doing some kind of disgusting blinking atop the length of it's back, like blowholes, burst out of the darkness  to find her. <br>
<br>
But it could not find her. Aaliyah was dark even next to a lantern, and smelled of nothing more than the waterside. She cocked her head to one side and stabbed the three-legged nose-dog <b>(FESTROG) </b>in it's flank and saw it bleed out fast into the burning sand, smoke rising and burning her eyes. <br>
<br>
She dragged her HER victim back to the barricade. Her Trophy. HER meat, and spit on the hand of a blood that reached to cut and share it.<br>
<br>
"Do as I say and you may yet eat... and only as I say."<br>

Adam was done talking. It never served him as well as action anyway... but he snapped those fodder-men around him into some kind of order. The screams were getting farther away and more people ran out of the darkness to see what the small assembly was doing -- they were lighting the surface of the ground so that Adam could work his glyphs into a Giant Ward... he cupped ink out of tiny pools that rested among the faces -- establishing the outline of the entire ward quickly before augmenting it by chipping away at the stone, the runes that would fill the glyphs and make the words... the words even he could not read, but flowed out of him, his ancestors channeling Sanctuary... SANCTUARY. <br>
<br>
In his chiseling, one of the stone faces popped up out of the ground -- <b>(reflective) </b>could he make it into a bowl? A mask? he cast it aside for now. He was making a Ward. It got brighter as more people gathered in the disencroaching darkness and turned their lanterns outward... wolf-like things paced just out of anything resembling a full view, it was hard to tell if it was Adam's passionate labors or the growing ring of light that kept the beasts at bay... but they were slowly gaining courage -- faster than the light was aggregating. <br>
<br>
Right before collapsing from exhaustion Adam finished the last word he had chiseled into the stone between the great letter he had inked. He curled up in the center of it and fell asleep, knowing in his own heart he was safe... these other fools... were safe. <br>
The Wolf-like things charged the ring of light, but could not cross the great circle that surrounded the ward. They yipped in discomfort if they stepped beyond the ink circle -- the circle of protection. In the darkness, Adam slept... and around him a small crowd piled into the circle until the mass could almost smother each other for their numbers and closeness. <br>
<br>
From the ward, a dull glow emanated -- and beyond the glow -- the lamplight of his huddled followers.<br>
<br>
They gave him enough space to sleep unmolested. He had earned that much, when all others crushed together.<br>
<br>
Before sleep completely took him... he cursed these people. these leeches on his power. <br>
<br>
"Fuck Yourselves." Adam muttered, and a near ultimate slumber fell upon him...<br>
<br>
<b>SANCTUARY WARD CREATED. ESTIMATED DURATION 12-24 hours. Space: (small) Condition: Crowded.</b></div>

What a synchronicity. Somebody was already making a Barricade.<br>
<br>
Their leader made proclamations that it was HER barricade. So they dug in right next to <a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId55">

 "Aaliyah Epimoni" shouted "Safety in numbers! Let them fortify beside us, but do not DARE let another one in!" <br>
Safety in numbers. Obvious blither. Niko made humor of the situation, "we are men and women in a sea of shit, and here's a lady yelling over property of a single turd!" His heroism served as <br>
an example and they made an outer barricade with Aaliyah's fortification covering their rear. <br>
<br>
The lanterns multiplied -- the creatures of the darkness withdrew in the face of the aggregated light.<br>
<br>
They worked tirelessly, and as Niko Sweat, he disrobed and handed his phermone soaked rags to the ladies around him as favors, as gifts, until he pranced naked, motivating his band. He was going to sire twenty children this week and that was a fact. He'd embrace every woman in camp, then bid that they leave him alone. Out in the darkness, a faceless ape <b>(FACELESS) </b>thumped a great bone club on the ground, as if in some frustrated challenge. So Niko, naked as a jaybird, made fun of it, enraging it until it threw the great bone into their defenses <b>(Gain great bone club)</b>... which was even funnier when the faceless ape realized it had given away it's weapon. <br>
<br>
Showing no fear, he shook those around him into action until a pointy secondary barricade surrounded the first... and they piled some lanterns at regular intervals along the low wall... <br>
<br>
They were safe... And incidentally had made Aaliyah <a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId57">

<b>SPIKED (Outer) BARRICADE CONSTRUCTED. </b><br>

She did the lantern trick, and did it again -- seeing wanders she made them see a bright orange light in her lantern, not the faint yellow light that was... Like moths to the flame she turned the minds of these cattle to come to the glassy knife -- more and more people appearing... with strange creatures furtively following. She concentrated on the insects she trapped with the light and then focused on the fire that burned... in the minds of the shadowy hunters she projected the pain of the fire... allowing more to group together, allowing them to clump together into some kind of two-tiered fortification. When the insects died, she scooped the blackish, waxy "meal" out of the catch at the base of the lantern and ate it... only to repeat the process again and again. No-one would know that it was <b>Eostre of Ciun </b>that saved them all... some heroic fool <a href="/members/auriel-maza.93348/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="93348" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId66">

 ... but no-one knew, nobody thought about what had really pulled them together. The itch in the back of their brain, the buzzing of the trapped and lured insect... She <b>(contemplative) </b>wondered just how different man and insect really were in this place, before scooping another handful of bugs into her drooling maw. <br>
<br>
<br>
She gathered them, and they had saved themselves. Her belly swollen with dead insects and a headache to beat the band from abusing her mindforce, She lay between the seemingly endless glassy waterside and the abyss of nothingness beyond the "Knife of Glass"... and rested. Alone, but surrounded by the folk she lured here. Her defense, her bulwark. Her people... whether they knew it or not...</div>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 22px"><u>Hegot the Drip</u></span></span></span></b><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="font-size: 15px">Darkness… as far as the eye can see. It was… eerie in a way. With the wind howling above him, and the sounds of what appears to be voices in the distance, one’s that seem recognizable if it weren’t so muffled sounding right now. He… couldn’t stay down for now… as while his body wanted to continue its rest, a hidden fear within him motivated the flow of blood within his body, not one of feelings or even memory, but one motivated by instinct to survive as well as whispers to his ears, more clear than even the surrounding noises around him… one’s that were whispering to him in order to wake up in order to live.<br>
<br>
Slowly pushing himself off the ground, the bald man slowly but surely got used to his surroundings, his vision becoming more clear as more darkness was found around him. But what did catch his eye, was the sight of a lantern sitting on the floor, right where he was sleeping. Picking it up, the man continued looking around, now inspecting his own body. It was nearly bare, other than a loin cloth around his waist to keep him warm. Running his hand against his head, he would feel that it was left bare for the world to see, alongside what appears to be scarring marked into his flesh. Even with such upon his head… it felt… natural in a way. Like it was always meant to be there.<br>
<br>
Looking down upon the floor, finding a cracked rock shard of what appeared to be a human face carved onto the floor, the man went ahead to pick it up, only to give him at least a fighting chance of what could be lying within such darkness. With only a sigh, the man began to walk around within the dark, making sure to keep his light low but not too low enough that he couldn’t see or scare off what critters may be sensitive to the light. Eventually, foraging around for items, the man found a couple of things, such as a dark colored stick from a plant, a tumbleweed that he was capable of turning into fiber with, and a black glassy wall nearby, that felt as if it needed to be broken.<br>
<br>
Picking up the items beforehand, getting ideas of what to create, the man began carving some of the glassy substance off the wall, and not wanting to cut himself, wrapped fiber over it to safely handle it. While it felt as if he couldn’t perform his plan alone… watching the other lights in the distance gave him an idea. If he could teach others in order to craft such and guide them… perhaps he could increase their chances of surviving this dark void. With a new goal set out for him, Hegot the Drip went off in order to gather more individuals, wanting to teach them and aid them within making items, alongside seeing what was that light being waved in the distance.<br>
<br>
Actions:<br>
1. Find other survivors and teach / guide them on both protecting their hands when crafting (wrapping their hands with fiber), but also to create both obsidian and rock spears. Also teach em to wrap fiber around obsidian shards to make makeshift knives.<br>
<br>
2. Wander towards the light caused by Trek earlier, before eventually wandering towards a group to stay nearby with.</span></span>​</div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Above all things, Hegot was calm. The terror and the irony smell of blood and the screams faded into the background. Sweet calm. <br>
<br>
He saw others running...  and he hailed them. He looked like he was out for a walk in the shadow of the glassy pointy wall.<br>
A faceless skull on a hairy humanoid leaped off the wall and screamed in his face -- ropes of saliva flying out all over his face as he blinked away his quasi-surprise. Then calm returned. Calm as he tripped the monstrous thing, and calm as he dislocated and pulled it's leg free of his body. Calm as he tore it in half over his head like phone-book. perfect, perfect calm. He de-sleeved the femur of the creature's flesh and hefted the bone like a club. <b>(1.5 handed Bone Club Obtained), "Faceless" Trophy obtained...</b><br>
<br>
He would consider his ancestors and see if they would decide he take on the aspect of the faceless...<br>
Some kind of translucent worm rose up to the side of him and he mutilated it with the club. He swung his club in a relaxed fashion... until his arms began to hurt. He was so relaxed he barely processed that he reduced the disgusting lurking thing into a flat patch that resembled a beavers tail. <br>
<br>
Hegot sighed and told the small group gathering behind and around him for safety to take shards of Obsidian, to hold them in hands wrapped in tumbleweed, or to pull cloth from their garments to make crude handles. <br>
He looked at the black bamboo and the sharp rock... and considered breaking them... then thought better of it.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Make a spear and give it to me" he said to a woman following close behind, who seemed to render the leather off the faceless thing with a skill and artistry.<br>
<b>2 unit of leather obtained. short stone spear obtained.</b><br>
once the group had made it to the barricades at glass knife, Most of his people left him to take refuge. But the skilled lady stayed with him, and a couple of others too.<br>
A light went out not far from here. He saw the head of the Grimmory sail behind the defenses... a truly hideous trophy. A pity it was not his own.<br>
<br>
"Someone died out there that slew a great monster." Hegot stated, matter of factly. <br>
"I'm going to wear his bones. You are going to make them a breastplate for me." He said to the skiled lady, and handed her the faceless-leg club in exchange for the spear.<br>
<b>Henchman of Note: "Skillful Lady"</b><br>
<br>
She merely nodded and walked in his footsteps, with the others brave enough walking beside him...<br>
<br>
300 feet out, more or less, they found the skeleton of the man that beheaded the Grimmory. He held the skull in his hand, and without thinking, destroyed it in his fist. <b>(Destructive)</b><br>
<br>
"Save the bones" he said to Skillfull lady... as he joined his fearful comrades in driving off some wolf-like horrors. <br>
<br>
They made it back to the barricades, where a lady named Aaliyah <a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId82">

 shouted at him for tribute. He didn't want to fight about it. He threw <b>1 unit of leather at her. </b><a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId84">

. <br>
He sat on the barricade, for hours to come, daring the darkness to come for him as <b>Skillful Lady</b> fit him for his breastplate. <b>Gain "Vivaldi-Bone Hero's Breastplate"</b><br>
<br>
He yawned as his troop circled to defend him and the barricade. He contemplated eating the Faceless... but it had died easily in his hands... was it worthy?<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><i>I said: "kiss me, you're beautiful -<br>
These are truly the last days"<br>
<br>
You grabbed my hand and we fell into it<br>
Like a daydream or a fever<br>
<br>
We woke up one morning and fell a little further down -<br>
For sure it's the valley of death</i>​</div><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><i>I open up my hands<br>
And it's full of blood</i>​</div><br>
<br>
<i>Where am I? I do not know. Why am I here? I do not know. How did I get here? I do not know. Who am I? That I knew within my soul. I am Ras of the proud Argead. Destined for greatness. This was the only thing I knew. This was the one truth. The only truth. The only truth that matters. (Narcissist) </i>In a strange calmness, Ras looked around. His fear and confusion was pacified by the Mindscreen that his natural blood rights gave him (Pompous). While other lesser men might suffer mentally, Ras of the Argead was unique in his ability to heal and pacify the damaged and scared mind. He brought order to chaos and him alone. (Pompous and Narcissist)<br>
<br>
Other groups of people seemed hopelessly lost, struggling in vain against the darkness and fear that surrounded them. It was fear that drew them to the light of imitation lanterns, and straight to their doom like helpless sheep being prayed upon by lions and alligators. Ras even conjectured that perhaps some of the creatures of the dark hunted by the sense of fear and panic... and that the lanterns provided a sense of safety and familiarity as most feared the unknown. Though, that had to be tested... vigorously. (Intelligent and Innovative) For now, this was no environment to be blindly conducting experiments. He needed other lessers to remove most of the burdens and dangers from him so that he could focus on what was truly important. (Schemer, Narcissist)<br>
<br>
Thus, his mind began to reach out like a gentle blanket of rolling fog, offering a sense of safety and comfort to those nearby who would follow him. He needed no words to prove himself to others. Just his mere presence, bloodline and aura would suffice. Anyone else was simply too impotent to realize the blessings that Ras of the Argead brought to them, and thus were beyond saving. (Narcissist) Yet, here he was... the pied piper, leading the children. To what end? Only the pied piper of the Argead knew. As Ras walked towards the glassy knife, a strange, yet familiar sensation befell him. Ras walked closer to the glassy knife and the sensation became stronger. <br>
<br>
Ras continued to walk closer and closer towards the glassy knife... Until he came across a woman, eating insects by the handful. Here was a woman... clearly of some use to Ras. She was... capable. Ras could feel it. She was the opposite to him. Where he brought order... she brought chaos. A cold smile plastered across Ras' face. The stars were beginning to align. "You there, talented, pale witch. Hand me some of your insects." (Pompous) Ras commanded the witch as he attempted to use his mindscreen to see if he could make himself... undetectable to the insects as if he were just another stone. Did these insects detect people based on fear or other powers? There was only one way to find out as he planned to reach out to grab a few insects then hand them over to his children to see how the insects detected prey. If the child performed well and cooperated, then Ras of the Argead was a merciful liege, and would help the child fend off the insects with his mindscreen and/or his lantern. This experiment was not just a test of his abilities... nay this was also a test of loyalty to begin learning who among the sheep were useful and loyal... and to see how pliable this pale witch was (Schemer).<br>

<br>
It was on the glass knife that Argead met Eostre -- the pale witch dining on insects and languidly watching the small collections of lanternfolk coalesce under the Glass Knife Hill.<br>
Argead had crossed hundreds of yards of uneven terrain to get to the relative safety of the fortification. His followers, over forty of them, walked in the shadow of his calm.<br>
They had stumbled into a patch of rough, knobby pumpkin like roots that grew on hideous, pulsing vines... and some of his followers had gathered them.<br>
Fear was definitely a scent in this world, for where Argead travelled without fear, and soothed the simple minds of their followers... Creatures turned away.<br>
More than once a couple of crouching faceless were come upon by Argead, and more than once they turned away and scrabbled into the darkness. They did not see Argead as prey, and they did not see his flock it seemed, at all... mostly.<br>
<br>
<br>
stragglers were lost, folk tripped or lollygagged which spelled their doom -- but Argead's host walked on until they reached the defenses set up by the other desperate people, and he too, assuaged their fears. Argead sensed the Greedy wickedness of Aaliyah -- and with a thought bid his followers to give the pumpkin plants, all of them, in tribute to this Tyrant. Argead's own show of power -- he lead without violence, and could afford to give up a grace or bounty as easily as it came. All that mattered was that his people were embraced... and once they were he sought and found the mindforce witch atop the glassy wall.<br>
Eostre gave him a handful of insects, live ones,dead ones, buzzers and stingers... and Argead exhaled through their mouth, and inhaled through their nose, a circular breathing which caused the insects to rise and fall...<br>
At once, in the fortifications below, the bugs that fed on the people dropped to the ground in unison -- what was once a nuisance, became food for the throng as they scooped the writhing things off the stone faces and fed upon them.<br>
People behind the barricades began to sit.<br>
And with sitting came the eating,<br>
and the eating lead to talking. Some exchanged names. Others exchanged hands.<br>
Peace belonged to Argead... and if the thralls would learn their place, (pompous, Narcissist) they might have some.<br>
But first he would test the pale witch Eostre... he reached the tendril of his mind to explore her power, and <a href="/members/pat.34274/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="34274" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId103">

 Eostre strangled the probe that Argead sent to learn her powers... She seemed his opposite number, and who knows, maybe she was equally powerful...<br>
<br>
...Though they doubted that. He doubted that very much.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">With the advent of the camp, and some hours passing... a peace of sorts falls over the darkness. The feeding frenzy of so many newly awakened has reverted to eerie silence and the sound of the gnawing of bones in the panumbra. Perhaps there are cycles of activity for monsters and the wild that are not obvious in the constant dark... <br>
people with courage step beyond the barricade, and as groups... begin to take stock of their surroundings.<br>
Each player may: <br>
FORAGE -- Look for materials in the near-wilds, in relative safety. There is PLENTY of <b>Obsidian and Human Bone </b>lying around.<br>
GATHER -- Seek out plants and other potential edibles. So far the most consistent diet of the bloods is stinging insects (which can be trapped in lanterns) <br>
SEEK WATER -- There is the filthy inky oily waterside nearby... and people will soon be desperate enough to try drinking it. Maybe there is cleaner water somewhere... hopefully nearby?<br>
HUNT -- Larger monsters can be heard braying, roaring and mating in the far darkness. It might be time to take the fight to the predators, and start to establish the people are not easy prey.<br>
CRAFT -- with materials on hand and a little foraging, you might be able to make some simple tools and weapons. More effective if other groups forgage.<br>
???? -- You may have your own ideas for this relative peace.<br>
<br>
Also:<br>
....A... Bed? .... is laying out under a cone of light in the far distance. It looks supremely comfortable... if such a prize could be brought back to the camp, it would easily be the most valuable item in the community...<br>
<br>
Post your choices in the thread or in discord and I'll give a quick summary of what is found/made or any random events.</div>

<br>
<br>
"Ha! Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHA!"<br>
<br>
Spora knelt down among the plain of faces, blood dripping from her bare body, her hand intertwined with that of another and laughed.<br>
<br>
Waking up to to the limitless blackness that was to be her new world, Spora had been overcome with confusion and fear at her surroundings, the wind howling above it's callous cacophony seeking to compete with the screams that rang out from all around here. She tore and scrabbled at the stone masks beneath her, a vain attempt to escape the choking darkness and deafening roars that enveloped her, the skin of her hands becoming ribbons as her nails pulled away, as all she was rewarded with was a single sharp stone from the ground.<br>
<br>
Reeling backwards to let out a mighty wail, Spora was quickly brought to the ground again, a mass of humanity rushing over, their dirty feet slamming against her, cutting and pounding away at her soft newborn flesh with rampant disregard, her body just a living breathing bump in the road to these other unfortunates. As one of her bones popped under the stampede, Spora had little fight left in her, so when a strong hand reached out and took her within it's grasp, she could do little to resist.<br>
<br>
Dazed and confused, she looked out through her own long auburn hair that now covered her face, only seeing the muscular back and matted black hair of her saviour, as was she pulled alongside the mass of humanity, the man an unmovable oak among the tide, as others merely bounced off him as he strode relentlessly forward under his lanterns light. It seemed nothing could stop this man until there was a sudden splash, the man disappearing into the an inky blackness, as Spora fell into the dirt.<br>
<br>
With little time to recover, Spora was of no use, laying on her back as a bulbous blimp of lit lanterns travelled over head, a series of strange glint dancing above.  With great effort she turned herself over, staring out to where the floating fires moved to. Spora's eye grew wide, as a series of hooks descended down towards the once stampeding splashers, the foolish reaching out to them to be saved while the rest tried to flee. But among the turbulent tides there was little hope, as steadily each light grew dim forever.<br>
<br>
Among them however, stood a bold beacon, her saviour, his mighty muscles pushing against the tide as he held his lantern high, forcing his way back to her. With grim determination he moved closer and closer, inches away from her, until he paused, his head jerking in the dark as he looked back. Rising up from the ground, she held her hand to him, trying to save him as he had done for her. Frothing from the mouth, his face twisted into a straining scowl he reached out to her, his veiny frame straining with effort. But his exertion was futile as with all his might he could not pull away from the hook that pierced his torso. And for Spora's effort, the man's severed hand as another hook swept over, cutting off his hand as it swung into his leg and carried him upwards.<br>
<br>
Blood sprayed across her, and in that singular moment something snapped inside the first of the Nihtur.<br>
<br>
All her effort. All her pain. Her very life amounted to nothing, amongst this demonic darkness.<br>
<br>
Pitiful pink streams dripped off her face, her tears mixing with blood as she cackled into the dirt. Nothing could survive her, let alone herself.<br>
<br>
A soft caress stroked her knees as something stirred beneath her. Looking down, drool dripping from her open mouth, as she tried to breath among her insane laughter, she noticed the low growing plants all around her, seemingly waving at her. Be it from her tears or her blood soaked body, the flora avowedly seemed to try reaching out to her...<br>
<br>
Grasping at a lantern beside her, it's unknown bearer long gone, she lifted it from the ground and walked, a trail of blood dripping from her as in her other hand, was her hero's severed appendage. A <span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">single minded</span> <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">clarity</span> overtook Spora, <span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">the first of the Nihtur eerily calm</span> as she strode into the darkness, following the trail of weeds.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">It was all becoming clearer...</span><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px">Spora forages as she makes her way to safety among the trees (Plant Kinship). Any tumbleweeds will be lit with her lantern to act as deterrents and lures for the beasts and fellow Bloods accordingly.</span>​</div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As the camp stirred with activity with various factions within the camp leaving to forage or work on some other menial task, Ras of the Argead walked to the top of the glassy knife to address his herd of about 60 lost sheep. It was time that he had blessed them with his thoughts and wisdom. Standing from the top of the wall, Ras loudly spoke "Witness me, children. I am Ras of the Argead. Your shepherd, your lord, your savior. Out there in the dark, you were nothing more than fearful lambs, quivering in fear as the beasts stalked and circled around you. Yet, unlike the others who straggled or stood in fear and allowed themselves to be eaten, you saw me and followed my brilliant light... my guidance. Why? Because within every one of you is an inner light. Just like the lanterns you carry, each of you also carries a light within, a light that keeps you strong, resilient and powerful within. Each of you are different than the hordes who were eaten in the dark. They did not have an inner light. Thus, like the empty husks they are, they surrendered themselves to their fears like the useless lanterns that they are. Yet all your lights are weak... barely flickering.<br>
<br>
How do I know this? Because you all feel MY inner light. Tell me... when you saw and approached me... did you feel safe? Comforted? That is the power of MY inner light that you felt and kept you safe from the creatures of the dark that feed upon your fear. Your weak lights merely encouraged to you not surrender and be completely consumed by your fear, but there is much for you to learn in order to grow your inner light. Thus, if you wish to further grow your inner light, then continue to follow me, Ras of the Argead, and remember my teachings." Ras then took his sharp rock and said "Those of you whose inner lights yearn to grow. Approach me." When or if any approached, Ras would lift his sharp stone and use it to prick his thumb. He would then place his bloody thumb on the forehead of those that approached to mark them with a fiery, crimson spot and tell them "Listen to the first precept of Ras the Savior. There is nothing to fear, but fear itself. Ponder upon my guidance and gaze upon your brothers and sisters whose inner light slowly grow. When your will wavers, look upon their brows and recall your own inner light and my teachings for I, Ras the Savior, have given you all a new spark and a new breath of life."<br>
<br>

 :<br>
Spora waved the dismembered hand for any and all to follow... lighting the weeds to make a path in the darkness... towards a stand of gnarled twisted leafless trees.<br>
The small fires were a dead giveaway to the predators that pursued, but they kept their distance as a growing host of supplicants to the Nihtur began to form. Several others cut the hands off of corpses left from the hook's slaughter... and held them like talismans over their hearts. <br>
In the darkness, in the light of the fires, in their lunacy -- some kind of FAITH was forming. Spora arrived at a ring of flesh-colored sickly trees... and with her ancestry of animal kinship, bonded to them.<br>
The trees let out strange noises... Like giggling, but not. 20 followers Crawled on hands and knees to spora... who walked, barely noticing her growing following... and prayed to the <b>jester-trees... </b>Those that did not enter the ring grovelling were GRABBED by the fleshy fronds and flung into the sky. "Huhuhhuhuhuhhuh".... "Peeep!" .... "HEEEEEEEE" the tree things laughed as dozens upright were cast into oblivion.... the predators running to feast on the easy meals that landed with a crunch.<br>
Spora and her twenty continued to grovel, Appeal to the trees, and shook the severed hands like rods of annointment splattering the roots of their murderous protectors. <br>
There was nowhere to hide as a great leathery-winged predator dove for the small assembly... the trees grabbed it, two of the pinkish things, and laughed like idiot gods... pulling it asunder then thrusting the corpse at Spora's Assembly. <b>3 units scaly leather</b> and there was meat... meat for the starving masses, still pulsing with lost life. They continued to crawl and grovel, eating and skinning the beast... while Spora babbled to the flesh-trees in a gibbering anthem <b>(corrupton) </b><br>
All but Spora gave their very souls to the <b>Jester-trees. </b><br>
And Spora... she took THEIR SOUL... if a tree of meat had a soul, this ring of death was hers. as these 20 belonged to it, the eight brutal laughing horrors belonged to her. <br>
<br>
"Willing!" she focused in her mind, communing with the ring of cruelty, the ring of pain, the ring of mockery and blood.<br>
<br>
A second, her second, the <b>Filthy Priest (named henchman), </b>put a hand on her shoulder, still knees to the ground.<br>
"ALL MUST BE WILLING! WOE BE TO THEM THAT DEFIES THE TREE, FOR THEY SHALL BE CAST INTO THE HELL THAT IS THE SURFACE"<br>
The filthy priest intoned, and Spora offered up herself to whatever the Jestertrees would do next.<br>
<br>
They would dig a burrow. And in it she and Twenty hid.<br>
<br>
Eating a carcass, anointing each other with the blood of severed hands. <br>
<br>
Their minds were lost... but if they chose, a home was found.</div>

<br>
<b>THE FIRST CONSTRUCTIONS</b><br>
<br>
While life in the darkness is still incredibly dangerous -- people have begun to settle in small groups and have learned how to survive. With survival and settlement, comes culture and Construction.<br>
<br>
<br>
Each player MAY (but doesn't have to) -- Construct a building for their Bloodline.<br>
Building materials most commonly useful are: <br>
Bamboo (scarce, so structure must be small)<br>
Fiber<br>
Clay<br>
Bricks<br>
Stone<br>
Quartz<br>
Obsidian<br>
Bones<br>
<br>
<br>
Declare in discord or in forum your construction and I will either approve it (and apply bonuses) or alter it (too ambitious or unlucky ideas may not work out or be compromised!)<br>
<br>
When at least 5 Constructions are made, The 2nd generation will start, when people begin leaving the Dark Cresh for even more dangerous environments with the hopes of more food and materials. (live in the dark cresh is very hard and far from safe)</div>

It had been some time since Niko guided those from the mad woman Aaliyah. His hair's black began to retreat into sliver, but he still have much left. And as Niko matured, he grew stronger and more resolved. Life wasn't easy, but everyone knew that. Bugs seemed to be an issue and a source of food. The odd creature that wandered in could be something, though skinny and not quite the best filler for the population. The people asked Niko for help, for guidance. To be honest, Niko was improvising with some whispers from his ancestors. They always seemed to have good ideas, and Niko was a comedian, he had to be creative to crack his jokes. But, there was a burning sensation in his mind. Who was he? And what was he meant to do? He looked around the quarry at the others. Crafters, hunters, shamans... Who was he and his personal flock? Niko had no answers until one fateful epiphany...<br>
<div style="text-align: center">---------------------------------​</div>In a cave of the quarry, Niko laid naked, as he always is, staring at the ceiling of the cave. Grumbling and murmurs filled the distant halls of those outside. Away enough to be faint, nothing more. The light of his efficient lantern guided his thoughts as he fiddled with rocks in his hands. Alone and with his thoughts, a smile drew across his face. Many knew him, and many enjoyed his humorous guidance and his passionate tendencies. But, they knew he needed to be alone. For that is when Niko could hear them best... alone. His ancestors spoke in weird ways. Though, Niko's behavior and strange power lended to that. Others could wield swords well, mutate with essence of the army of darkness, project their mind onto others, and much more. Niko waggled his hands at the thought. What made him so different? What made him deafened to the siren's song of the beast long ago? Niko's eyes shut in frustration as he turned to his right side. He held a rock and as he focused away from it, a teal glow began to form. His gaze returned and the rock was no more. Transformed into a rod of some kind. Niko stared into the rod thinking of what it meant. Slowly, he turns away, then only to smash it. He did not need it. He knew what it spoke. Niko wielded a different power. He projected not his mind onto others, nor shield his mind. He reaches with his mind into the physical world and bends it to his needs. Or in some cases, makes what was not there. Of course, there was so much to explore. Must he save his strength, so he spares it from his wonders. But, it manifested in a teal glow, and his body glowed slightly as well. Not enough to drive the darkness, but by goodness, it was there. Niko stared at the glow in his hand in the cave, tearing up in confusion. What did it mean? <br>
<br>
"I don't understand. Why do I have this? Why couldn't I be like them? I don't understand why..." Niko stood up, leaning up against the stone wall. He chewed a couple bugs with his eyes not touching the light that bounced from them. "A fool I may be, but what do these powers mean? Are they some joke? Some prophecy?"<br>
<br>
Nothing responded, but as he questioned and tumbled with himself, the glow increased briefly and a whisper entered his ear. Niko couldn't hear it clearly...<br>
<br>
"Child of the Light? Not sure about that, but... that does make some sense." Niko angled his purple eyes downward. He examined his hands. They glowed dimly, but glowed. He walked outside the cave with lantern in tow. He needed to see something, and as he looked over the quarry and the nearby settlements, he noticed that there wasn't any light fixtures, least that survived. "Maybe they tried what all the others have done too. Maybe it won't be enough... But, what do we need to better them?" Niko looked back down at his hands, and he knew. "Light."<br>
<br>
He opened his lantern and pulled out a piece of quartz. He began to shape it into a lens, and held it in the beams of his lantern. The concave shape caused the light to spread and Niko's eyes sparkled like royal jewels. The dark seemed to be afraid of the light. Maybe his mocking of it proved effective because of an inner light, his inner light. Maybe he left Aaliyah because he knew the dark would take them if they had not. Maybe he resisted the song because he held the light and it could not pierce for that. May be... But the coincidences and strange occurrences struck Niko. This quarry was a great find. The resources as well. Maybe, he was destined to find it... Maybe he was just lucky. Maybe it was the land that would start the light's return. Maybe he was the one to do so.<br>
<br>
The others focused on libraries and crafting halls. Nah, Niko knew better, he learned quick. A sword, a book, a wall cannot drive out the darkness. Only light can... The swirl of realizations hit Niko hard and he sat down abruptly. Wonder what kind of scene this would cause. He looked deeply into his lantern and his lens. Maybe he didn't know how to make more light as his children would know. But, he knew how to augment it, and why it was important. The only way was to spread it far and wide. Let the darkness BURN. But, in its place, the landscape needed new to replace what would be overtaken. Niko closed his eyes as he heard their voices again. He saw a tree, an oak tree below a massive light? Was that what was instore for his children? Maybe the tree was important, but how could he find one? If one was to exist? Then, he saw little nuts called acorns across the ground? Maybe that was the key. Not to make the tree, but to craft its seed. Of course, Niko didn't know what it looked like on the inside or the color of its blood. That he simply made in the color of his eyes.<br>
<br>
"Come light seed, breath in my mind so that you may return to these dark lands." He focused deeply. He hoped it would arrive, for he looked down at his lens, the lantern, and he had an idea. Maybe build a tower of light...<br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445254" style="display: none;"><br>

<i>Mistress of the Pit</i><br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
The beast was dead [Captain Obvious]. The great beast had strutted across this land as if it was king of all it surveyed, it had crashed through the barricades as if they were little more then dust in the howling gale left in its terrible wake. It had sent the few outsiders that still remain scattering into the dark, chasing after the tails of their fellows, but her people remained. Why did they stay while others fled? What made them stand fast against a beast of nightmares? A beast that made the very ground tremble with each step? The answer was same as it had always been, it was an answer that stood eternal, unchanging with the seasons, it was strength [Blunt]. If they had fled from it's wroth, if they had chased after the backs of the cowards who had hightailed it before, they would never stop running. What made someone strong was not their bodies, it was their wills. The will to look into certain death, to look into the darkness of the abyss, and stand fast. It was the understanding that in this world of shadow, a man was either the Prey or the Predator. The beast of this world could not be reasoned with, they could not be talked down, they could not be engaged in lengthy debates of morality, they had to be <i>broken</i>. The Tyrannosaur's mistake had not been in entering their camp, it had not been in killing her warriors, it's mistake had been it's nature. That bestial ignorance that made it believe it was King, that it was the Apex Predator of this land, Aaliyah could not help but ponder if the beast had still thought that, when she had plunged her fist into its eye and tore out its mind, if even unto those last few painful moments, it had believed itself to be King. Bestial Ignorance had been it's downfall, it's reign had ended the moment she had taken her first breath, the instant she had taken up the spear from the worthless nobody that had sought to claim what was hers [Greedy], from the time her followers cast down the false messiah. She was the Mistress of the Pit. She was the apex predator of this land. She would make this world quake when she deigned to tread its soil because she, and she alone, had the strength to gaze into the abyss, to plunge her hand into it and take what she wanted, what she deserved [Greedy/Megalomania].<br>
<br>
The buzz of conversation slipped into the darkness as the numerous fires crackled in the dark, large racks upon racks of meat hung to smoke and be preserved, but there was so much. The beast's carcass had been a veritable gold mine of leather and meat, so much meat that it was impossible for them to preserve even a fraction of it, so they feasted. Night after night, they dined upon the roasted 'King' [Captain Obvious]. While the cowards hid in their hole, scarfing down insects and scraps like rats, the Warriors of the Epimoni, and the Healers of Seia, feasted. They went to sleep fed both in belly and spirit. Aayliah ran her hand across the scaled leather of the 'chair' she was using, none other then the head of the fallen king that had been removed and set down. Soon it would be stripped down to the bone and she would have it decorated, engraved, turned into a throne worthy of a Queen, but for now, it was a useful symbol of status and she took perverse enjoyment in resting her rear on such a might beast that she had personally broken, the look of awe, fear and respect that glimmered in the eyes of her warriors [Greed/Megalomania]. As she ran her rand hand across the surface, she was reminded how, not so long ago, that arm had been withered and broken, a useless weak thing hanging from her side, but it was healed [Captain Obvious]. Odette of Seia had a truly marvelous gift, one Aaliyah coveted jealously [Greed], but to her pleasure, the woman possessed a keener mind then the scurrying rats before her. She understood the perks of bending the knee, of living under the protection of the Epimoni. Her and her people would live in peace down by the water's edge, or even here, if they so wished. They would grow, they would expand, they would have children, their reward for their fealty was prosperity. The mewling rats thought she was 'savage', a 'beast', that she could not be trusted and so they had fled into the night, but as they huddled in fear of her, the Seia Clan would sleep with full bellies. When the mewling rats spoke of 'freedom' from her 'darkness', she would merely point to the Seia and how life was under her domain [Megalomania]. If their strength had not been so taxed, she would have marched upon their holes and forced them to their knees, to break them [Blunt]. But their strength was depleted for now, and in time, the rats would multiply, as rats were keen to do, and it could prove troublesome to clear them out. No, she would wait. The Seia would prosper, and when the beast from the shadows come again, the rats will flee, flee with their goods, flee with their weak and their young, flee with the pathetic things they called 'lives'... And when there was no where else to flee, Aaliyah would be there. As she always was and with open arms she would accept what had always been hers, when they bent the knee to her and submitted, they would know the peace that only broken livestock know, the peace and contentment of utter subservience to a being greater then they. [Greedy/Megalomania]<br>
<br>
Aaliyah's dark eyes roamed her domain to the spikes of Glass Wall, where the skulls of her foes hung and to one in particular that was empty. The False Prophet was gone and had been gone for some time [Captain Obvious]. She could only assume one of his pathetic followers had survived and taken his body down, as it was unlikely he could have survived, much less, pull himself off the impalement [Smart]. Why they had done so mystified her, what use did a corpse have when there were so many others around? Perhaps they would hoist it up and gather around it to build effigies to it out of their dung [Blunt], in truth, it was little matter. The Prophet's Fall was barely more then a footnote compared to the Fall of the King. He, whatever his name had even been, was nothing more then a stepping stone in what was her legacy [Megalomania]. One day, even the Fall of the King would seem small compared to what she, and her future progeny, would do. When they claimed every inch of this land of darkness, when the men and women bent the knee to her glory, when the beast hide in the shadow, eking out a living in holes as they wept in fear at her passing for this was the domain of monsters and none of them could match her ferocity. There was a new world order for the King was dead, and soon many other bestial kings would follow, and in their place, a new leader would take their place, Aaliyah Epimoni, and from her throne she would rule this land, she would crush the beast that lurked in the darkness, bend the knee of the upstarts and cowards that trembled in their holes for this land was <i>hers</i>. [Megalomania/Greedy].<br>

Long live the Queen.<br>

<b>Construction</b><br>
<u><b>Throne of Tyrants</b></u><br>
It will be the site of the future 'great hall' of the Epimoni where the massive skull of the Black Tyrannosaurus sits as her throne, adorned in blackscale leathers with polished obsidian used to fill its eye sockets.<br>
<br>
Wyrmbone [Skull of the Black Tyrannosurus -owned-] + fiber + blackscale leather + tools + obsidian<br>
<br>
Clarification: The Great Hall is not being constructed. That'll be in the future. For now it's just the throne.<br>

<b><u>TOWER OF BABEL</u><br>
<br>
"Why father do we light the quarry and not the lands beyond? Why are our lenses turned down to give the dim to the settlement below, and never turned to the dark of the sky?"</b><br>
Come here, child, and I will tell you the story of Niko the Deliverer -- Who led us all from bondage, who united the people's of the Quarry council, and once upon a time envisoned a monument that would push back the dark forever -- the first that would be of many, I imagine... with light for all and no monsters to hide in it. A new world. A dream within a dream. We are still proud of Niko the deliverer, and he will always be remembered -- but his dream was to master the darkness, not to survive in it... and it was this leap too far that brought him low...<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
You see... A long time ago he had recruited all who would listen from the Quarry to build his "House of Light" -- a spire that reached out of the quarry, up to the lands around, and indeed, when it was lit, for a brief time -- the world around in the dark cresh was visible... we called it the dim cresh in those days, brief as they were... and the light of the lighthouse shed as far as the waterline, shimmering the beach and people of the gnarled tree, shimmered over the wall of glass making the obsidian spikes akin to torches in the reflected glass... you could see as far as the Jester's forest to the south, and shudder at what happened there. Indeed... the lighthouse was constructed.. and it worked. really WORKED. <br>
<br>
And the people did frolic beneath the house of light, and it was said the pupils of the people of the quarry grew SMALL in the shine of it's radience. And much was mapped, and much was gathered that was hidden, and for weeks, happiness rose so high in the Quarry that there was only one way to go -- to Fall, my son. To fall.<br>
<br>
Niko was Heroic... and Niko was Humorous. In fact, it is said perhaps that had he survived Niko would have seen the humor in what had happened...<br>
<br>
<b>The Nightmare Titan Flying thing, of hooks and lights, of impossible size... must have seen the tower and thought it a potential mate... what else could be so bright in the cresh? And lo, the gargantuan thing landed in the Quarry, and mounted and copulated with the Tower, even as Niko stood within it with those closest to him in defiance or defense. There was crunching and grunting and cracking and crumbling and the quarry was plunged back into night. The tower was toppled, and a river of black slime was left in it's wake... the lenses shattered, the great work, rubble. Many died, crushed in the rockfall or taken by the hooks...</b><br>
That is why we inverted the lighthouse to shine only into the quarry -- we are people of light now, thanks to Niko -- but this land is not a land of light -- and it was hubris of him to think that so early in the struggle of our people that the dark could be tamed. Managed, yes -- as you can see the herb gardens grow. Wielded, yes -- as you see our community is a land of light, however dim...<br>
<br>
But we have a saying now -- and hear it well -- it comes from the whispers of he ancestors, and none know truly what it's saying, but all know for sure what it means:<br>
<br>
<b>"Fly like Icarus -- Holding the Sun -- Then burn thy ass like a cinnamon bun."</b><br>
<br>
Who is this Icarus father? And what is a cinnamon bun? what is a "sun?"<br>
<br>
<b>"Respect the darkness boy. That's what it means."<br>
<br>
_________________________________________</b><br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<br>
<br>
Niko the Elder has died. Generation 2 population drops to 30 (from 40) because of catastrophe. New Lighthouse is built that ONLY lights the quarry, and is primarily used for vision within the settlement and the cultivation of herbs. <b>(RED HERB and GREEN HERB) </b>become renewable resources in the Quarry. <br>
<br>
<b>Stationary Light </b>exists in the quarry. Any attempt to take such light out of the quarry has been a catastrophe. <br>
<br>
"Sleep Well Niko, beneath the grunting lurching mass of the flying titan of the lamps."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">In the lee of the Knife of Glass, The obsidian outcropping where reigned the Epimoni, <br>
<br>
where other peoples built towers, and walls, and temples, and monuments -- Aaliyah built a tribute to the only thing she held dear...<br>
<br>
<b>HER POWER.</b><br>
<br>
The Throne of Tyrants did not take long to complete, but it was endlessly refined and decorated... redecorated, strengthened, made ever larger, more fearsome, A home built out of a skull of a Titan, the walk up to the throne lined with the Wyrmbone fangs and teeth of the Fiend of the Pit. The most luxurious leathers, and piles of boiled mushroom made it the only truly COMFORTABLE place in the dark Cresh. Soft was the ground in her audience chamber, and deep and pleasing was the rest of Aaliyah and her cronies... who slept the dreamless sleep of the guiltless, the pitiless, the well fed and the content. Their allies brought health to the community, and the meat and clothing... and armor gave a pride to Aaliyah's people. All WERE the throne. All were a stool to be seated upon by their Queen. Mighty were the Epimoni, but to survive they were obsequious to their one and only master. <br>
<br>
The Throne of Tyrants would Aaliyah's seat from which she beat her daughter and heir every day of her miserable life. Greed turnt to sadism, and sadism to madness. The throne consumed, as the lord of the pit consumed... and the only way anyone was going to succeed Aaliyah, is if they COULD NOT be broken. <br>
<br>
She killed her firstborn for weakness and threw the corpse to the festrogs. She would do the same to her nextborn, given half an indication of weakness.<br>
Her daughters eyes over the years of beatings swole into slits, like her eyes were buried in a visor of bruised knotted flesh and bone. Her nose was flat, he lips broken on her own teeth from strikes to the face. Every night she slept under the heel of her mother, and every morning she was kicked awake to be beaten again.<br>
<br>
Until one day, Aaliyah in her age kicked her daughter and her foot broke, for brittle had she finally turned in age. It broke badly... a compound fracture. Blood. And Aaliyah Fell.<br>
Her daughter, in her first seconds as queen, pulled the cruel foot of her mother free of her body and stabbed her in the heart with the jutting fragment of bone. How fitting Aaliyah would only die to her own blood, her own flesh to bring her low. She coughed blood all over herself and laughed as she was pulled from the Tyrant's Throne... taking what time she had left to relish her own death. <br>
<br>
<b>The Queen is Dead <br>
<br>
Long live the New Queen...<br>
<br>
_______________________________</b><br>
<br>
Effects:<br>
A champion combatant fighting for Epimoni at the foot of the Tyrant's throne gets <b>(Awe +2) (max of 3)</b> -- this only applies to the Queen herself and two designated bodyguards.<br>
<br>
<b>SLAVERY</b> becomes a custom in Epimoni -- those wandering in from the darkness can willingly become slaves to serve the Black Tyrant. (+.5 labor to endeavors near Glasswall)<br>
(slaves are not counted as part of population, but as an abstract number relative to the size of actual pop)<br>
<br>
Epimoni gains<b> "Right to rule"</b> as a cultural aspect. All other leaders are considered despots at worst or unlegitimated charismatic leaders at best.</div>

<i>Hello, darkness, my old friend <br>
I've come to talk with you again <br>
Because a vision softly creeping <br>
Left its seeds while I was sleeping <br>
<br>
And the vision that was planted in my brain <br>
Still remains <br>
Within the sound of silence<br>
<br>
---</i>​</div><br>
<br>
A pilgrimage of forty humans, clad in stone masks imitating the face of people, silently marched through the darkness. Their lanterns, covered with cloth as a sign of their belief, proved to be of little to no use to these pilgrims as they began to embrace the darkness and to face it for what it truly was... an illusory manifestation of their fears. Their inner lights would guide them through these mysterious lands. These pilgrims... they did not know why they were here, but they knew within their hearts and souls that the Argead would guide them through the confusion. Why else would the strange creatures of the lands seemingly avoid them? And the few times that a creature did notice the pilgrims, they soon began to cower in fear at the majestic sight of the Argead (Feared). It seemed as if the deadly creatures of the dark knew that death meant nothing to the pilgrims or the Argead (Deathless).  When the pilgrims were hungry, the strange insects of these lands flew towards them and collapsed to the ground as offerings to the pilgrims. These strange lands would bow to them and the brilliance of their inner lights (Power Drunk). It already provided many bounties, and the inner light guided the pilgrims to innovate and create. In the distance, the pilgrims saw a giant skeleton of an urchin, shaped like a lantern (Perceptive). They quickly approached the skeleton and knew that this was a sign from the lands that the pilgrims had a divine mandate, and that their path was true. The skeleton would serve as an excellent basis for a shrine... nay a LANTERN to hold the inner light (Brilliant).<br>
<br>
Silently, the pilgrims lifted the skeleton in unison and headed off to a direction that was familiar to them. They had been given a divine mission: to manifest the will of the inner light. And thus, in their silent fervor, the pilgrims walked towards a distant light in the horizon... where they knew that they would find aid in their holy mission... aid that would be shocked at the return of the Argead (Wild Card/Fraudulent).<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
The Lantern of the Inner Light<br>
<br>
The Argead will construct a holy palanquin/portable shrine in the shape of a lantern for the Argead to symbolically sit in as the greatest "inner light" and illuminator of this dark, deadly and uncertain world. It is to serve as a reminder that the darkness itself is not necessarily deadly, but rather the fear of the dark and the unknown is more deadly. Thus, it will be a tribute to the Inner Light faith and the Mindscreen Ancestory that enables the bloodline to walk without fear in the dark. It will be made of the giant skeleton of a urchin, quartz glass panes, bones, wood, clay, lime, and fiber with the expert assistance of the Vivaldi that was arranged in a trade deal. The Palanquin will also feature carvings/scrimshaw explaining the teachings of the Argead and their struggle.</div>

<br>
The people of the Smith Build a Great Forge out of clay, bricks and stone. The waste heat is a great comfort to the community, where those without covering to sleep (which was most) rested in the cold dark. The only warmer place in the Quarry it was said was in the Vivaldi Harem... <br>
<br>
____________________<br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<br>
<br>
Anything "Shoddy" or "Inferior" crafted in the Quarry is rerolled for quality.<br>
<br>
Smelting of rocks and dirt produces the strange glassy alloy called <b>SLAG. </b>(the worst metal in the game -- but it's metal!)<br>
Unless an item from the quarry is made of a better material, it is assumed to be made of <b>SLAG. </b><br>
slag rusts away quickly when not in use or wrapped in oily rags. It breaks bone and wood, but is brittle against other metal and stone. (sunders,can break)<br>
All crafting done with Vivaldi permission in the Quarry is +20%<br>
The Forge has <b>100 "Art" points, and gains 20 every turn. (if a timejump happens, the forge is restored to it's max of 100) </b><br>
ART points are percentile points that can be added to any item on a d100 scale, up to <b>120. </b>(Art is used to craft better or enhance existing items)<br>
<b>The forge can work Wyrmbone and other tier 3+ materials more easily.</b></div>

<b><u>The Lantern of the Inner Light</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<br>
<br>
The first 2 successful hits on a person in the lantern are considered misses. If this procs enough, this power will degrade. the "Lantern" can hold 5 people comfortably, and 10 cramped. It is filled with Comfortable fiber and sponge, and is non-flammable. <br>
<br>
<b>Mindforce and Mindscreen are more powerful when used within the lantern. <br>
Travel in the Dark Cresh is 100% safe from animal (though not environmental) hazards for the faithful (travelling with the lantern). Outside the cresh, this bonus is still 50% as powerful.</b><br>

 's faith is considered the strongest. Cultural tension develops between these players/factions as long as the Lantern structure exists. <br>
<br>
<b>Willing population can be BURNED inside the Inner light to charge it like a weapon. this weapon is a 1d20 scorching ray weapon, +1d20 for each supplicant fed to it. People not killed by the light of the lantern must save or convert to serve the Argead! (conversion probabilty is low at present, but will grow with the faith). The beam, paradoxically, is invisible, and not a true light, per se.</b></div>

The Huntsmen, using bricks and plaster to create a barricade. Topping off said barricade by making a couple of pit traps (will teach the others about the locations fo said traps to make sure no/little accidents happen) around it and spikes against the wall to help ward off attacks. Will also aid Kent with his construction<br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<br>
A Barricade is built all around the Quarry, with pits and spikes. For now, something resembling "safe" falls over the Quarry, as only flying or crawling things can ever breach the defenses, even then if such critters could bypass the sentries. <br>
<br>
<b>QUARRY IS CONSIDERATED FORTIFIED.<br>
MORALE IS INCREASED INSIDE THE QUARRY.<br>
Barricade will degrade if not maintained... though this may take a long time.</b></div>

Laughing Lantern Lanterns will be hung from the JesterTrees, and a great pyre will be built (Kindling/Sharp Stone), to attract new followers and deter predators. A feast will be set up using blindbird eggs and meat (?) to further incentives new followers. Sharp Stones and Shredded Scales will mark the entrance to the burrow and proximity to the trees, injuring those who are foolish enough not to crawl in the First Faiths presence. Any and all followers will dig deep into the ground (Sharp Stones/ Claws (?)) to extend the burrow, following the root network of the JesterTrees and leading to greater expansion of both parties.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Jestertree forest -- once a broken ring, became a mighty stand that grew into it's own haunted biome... where only the cult and creatures that learned to live there could survive. Beneath the forest the cultists burrowed, slowly pushing out the borders of their domain, feeding the inner trees with their own blood and luring the foolish to feed the new growth on the outside. For burrowing the people discovered <b>PURPLE TUBERS </b>-- a vital fiber-rich vegetable food source to complement the mostly bird and egg diet of the cult. They wore claws and their hands and feet, and the jestertrees grew around them and in them. Lanterns of the dead hung from every tree, giving the forest an eerie light. In the swaying shadows, the jestertrees giggled and jangled the lanterns and chimes, filling all around with a ghostly horror -- even the leathery flying snatchers were no match for the giggling wood, the fliers pulled from the air to rot at the roots of the meat-trunks. However, the lantern forest and crawling trails did not lead many new pilgrims into the fold... most that dared were eaten by the wood, or fell into sinkholes above the burrows and died.<br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<b>THE GAUNTLET: THERE IS NO WAY ANY BUT THE BRAVEST OR MOST INSANE SUPPLICANTS COULD REACH THE BURROWS. </b>This translates into static population growth, but the cult gets a hero/maniac every turn instead of population.<br>
<b>TERRORSCAPE: Cultist pop fighting or dealing in the jesterwood have awe (+1) and Fear 10. <br>
FORTIFIED: The jesterwood is considered fortified. It does not require maintenance. </b></div>

Ciun makes a stone/brick/quartz library filled with shelves of clay tablets documenting the art, culture, history, knowledge, and records of the Dark Cresh for future generations, including an autobiography/manual for Eostre's successor. Camp workers not following Eostre are offered food and water in exchange for working on the building and providing blank clay tablet mediums for the Ciun to write on with bamboo stylus before firing the clay tablets to harden them, and leaders in the quarry are offered food, water, and ink in exchange for opening their minds and ordering their followers to open their minds to Ciun so she can read their thoughts and memories in 'guided tours' for her studies. Ink is poured into the clay tablet imprintings to dry once they're hardened for extra legibility. Those who provide anything that is put into the library will be given access to the literary materials that they personally contributed by the librarian, Eostre, who intends to oversee the building and it's collection as it's guardian and custodian when she retires and becomes an elder. Excess labor and materials are used to decorate the building.<br>
<br>
EFFECTS:<br>
<br>
<b>Scuttlebutt: </b>routine scanning of the quarry populace thoughts gives Ciun bonus to intel. If it's known to NPCs in the Quarry or glasswall, Ciun likely knows plenty about it.<br>
<b>Obsession: </b>Ciun leaders can always elect to have one perk compounded. This has a 50% chance of compounding a quirk as well.<br>
<b>Mental Discipline: </b>Characters can spend a turn at the library to remove a quirk. there is a 50% chance of still getting credit for having a quirk on death/retire.<br>
<b>Written by the Victor: </b>Ciun can "Spin" events as more positive or more negative over time. Or even reverse the perception of events or the truth.</div>

<br>
Sephirah HALL OF ETERNITY A masterpiece of passion that is built with the blood, sweat, tears, and life by the Forbearer of the Sephirah Bloodline - Adam. <br>
<br>
He wanted to name it "The Shack" but the other Shamans violently refused so he was forced to name it something he thinks is cringe. At the end of the construction, Adam stood in the middle of the Halls and crazily laughed as he witnessed his masterpiece. After tens of minutes of laughter, he looked at the people behind him, hideously grinned, and flicked them all. "Fuck you all." <br>
<br>
He then collapsed into a majestic golden flame that will eternally grace the hall with its warmth and light. It was named the Eternal Fire. Labor, Materials, and other Details: 6 Powerful Shamans assisted with general labor by the other Council Members. <br>
<br>
<br>
While of Modest size; Stone, Quartz, and Cement is used for the construction. All lanterns used will also be enchanted with efficiency. <br>
With our Arts and Tattoo culture, the building will be decorated with majestic artworks -- in particular a small collection of clay statuary and ink paintings. Though not very large, it is (at least at present) the most attractive cultural accomplishment in the Cresh.<br>
<br>
The Hall of Eternity will is constructed in a narrow nook in the back of the deepest part of the Quarry, making it remote and exclusive.<br>
Purpose of the structure aside from being a symbol of the hope of eternity is shelter and an enchanting blessed land.<br>
<br>
<br>
 <br>
EFFECTS:<br>
<b>The Mighty Bird (but not THAT type of bird): </b><br>
<br>
at the deepest part of the hall lies a 10 foot clay statue of a hand shooting the bird, with bright light behind it. For a randomly assigned additional quirk, anyone allowed may carry ONE USE of "The Curse of Sephirah" -- when somebody else rolls a d8 save, You can shoot them the bird and apply -1 to the roll, or a 60% chance of forcing a reroll.<br>
<br>
When enchanting an item here, there is a 10% chance of any such enchantment being BOOSTED. Boosted enchants cannot be temporary.<br>
<br>
<b>Beauty in Darkness: </b><br>
<br>
The Hall of Eternity, for those allowed to view it, is a small cultural wonder. Basking in it's beauty can change a person in this grim dark world, even if only for a time.<br>
Visitors gain "Inspire +1" and "Morale 5" for their next fight or hunt.<br>
<br>
<b>Place of Succor: </b><br>
<br>
The Hall of Eternity is enchanted with healing wards made by Sephirah the first themselves. If allowed, a characters that are wounded beyond the help of medicine can rest here for the rest of their turn, and will either die, or be healed, by the spark of Eternal hope. (Each player inscribing a rune of hope on the patient may increase the chance of success, but the chance of success is not high to raise the dead!)<br>
<br>
<b>ETERNAL WARDS: <br>
<br>
A special ward hides this building so it can only be found by permission. Visitors to the warded hall may be healed over time. A small but BOOSTED barrier ward prevents entry of the unwelcome, assuming they can find it. This building it the closest thing to "secure" that exists in this world.</b></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><b><u>GENERATION TWO: TURN 1 OF 3 -- PACIFICATION OF THE CRESH:</u></b><br>
<br>
The greatest predators in the cresh have been brought low, at least some of them. <br>
While the dark without a lantern is almost certain death, the cresh is not as dangerous as it once was, with the festrogs and faceless cowed, and most factions having access to food an water (even of dubious quality) and strength in numbers.<br>
<br>
it is HUMANS that are rapidly becoming the biggest threat to each other -- for with only so much space in the cresh, conflict over resources quickly turns to unrest over beliefs. This generation, one belief system will reign in the cresh:<br>
<br>
1) The Argead is the Messiah: Reglardless of faction, some populace have begun to recognize the Argead as the savior of the cresh, and potetially the leader from the cresh to more resources before the cresh is depleted, overpopulated, or just crushed by horrors for the fishbowl it is... <a href="/members/heyitsjiwon.20661/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="20661" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId54">

 <br>
2) The Right to Rule: A growing undercurrent of legitimacy to rulership is blowing through the cresh. many even not in the Lord of the Pit's faction see her as the rightful ruler of all humans in the cresh, and there is pressure in communities to "bend the knee" -- other factions must legitimate their leadership or lose their identity and culture to the glasswallers. <a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId56">

		</a> <a href="/members/cosmo.6698/" class="username " dir="auto" data-user-id="6698" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId57">Cosmo</a>
 <br>
3) The Jestercult, once a distant fear, has been expanding ever towards the Quarry and Glasswall. Unsteady peace must be made with the Jestercult, steps must be taken to prevent the infectious nature of their faith or lose identity to it, or some say the cult must be smashed entirely. <a href="/members/twist.39617/" class="avatar avatar--xxs" data-user-id="39617" data-xf-init="member-tooltip" id="js-XFUniqueId58">

 faiths, this seems the most wholesome of the emerging philosophies, but not the most popular...<br>
5) other ideologies spread and establish their identity and relationship to everyone else. But before the cresh is left, one philosophy will stand dominant.<br>
<br>
Gen 2 so far will be defined by: <br>
A) Overlapping belief systems and religion in the cresh, <br>
B) Overall health of Factions (but this is pretty good to be honest) <br>
C) Preparing expeditions to leave the cresh <br>
D) Cultural dominance through invention<br>
<br>
GEN 2, TURN 1 is open: <br>
People may post ONE ORDER/PROJECT for your faction each, (all ideas already started will be considered done in the timejump)<br>
Discord adventures into the cresh to pacify the last most dangerous hazards are also encouraged, or planned in forum to be discovered/dealt with.<br>

<i>Mistress of the Pit</i><br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
The Cresh had changed so much, yet in many ways, had not changed at all since that faithful day their ancestors emerged from the shadow with the lanterns and fought for their place to survive in this world of beast and darkness. However, where their ancestors stumbled in the dark, fighting over scraps as they lashed out against the terrors of the night, now it was burgeoning societies, of fledgling beliefs and dogmas, the great obstacle of their generation was not beast, it was Man. The 'Messiah' and his light, a religion the Epimoni had thought crushed, slain in their bid for power by the First Queen when their ancestors walked the land, still roamed and people flocked to him, hoping for something to save them. The Jestercult, once thought a myth invented by frightened Quarry Rats, has been shown to be a truth. Humans who have 'bonded' with plants and even become them on their death. A symbiotic relationship with nature, with the beast and plants of the dark, of this new world. The idea of 'Hope' that was oozing out of some in the Quarry, it was wholesome, it was kind, it was <i>weak</i>. Lastly, Right to Rule. Created by the Queen, the Only True Sovereign, of this land. The belief that Right to Rule is won through strength. Those deserving to rule, will naturally rise to the top and claim it. If they cannot, they will fall and a new, better, replacement will naturally emerge.  This belief was formed the day, Aayliah Epimoni, broke the Bestial King of the Cresh, the Black Tyrannosaurs and claimed her place as Ruler.  The Messiah and his flock wander the Cresh, without a home or a place, the Jestercult are food for their trees, servants, not masters, of their destiny... The Quarry Rats preach of hope while the powerful live in warm forges, in an elegant home suited only for the best, while the weak, the ones most needing of hope, sleep on the hard floor. How could they compare to the Right to Rule? How could they compare to the Epimoni? All who have bent the knee have had their lives improved. The Seia have known only  prosperity, their medical skills and beauty have grown by leaps and bounds. The Epimoni claim the Glasswall, the original spot of their ancestors, where all the people gathered to see whom would lead, the Epimoni emerged and claimed what was theirs, all the rest fled to the corners of the Cresh. The figures of legend in their people's history, could not stand against the First Queen's might, how could their descendants? The poorest of the Epimoni live in bamboo lean-tos, covered from the elements by both bamboo and blankets, while the rest live in proper bamboo homes. While the others scrounged in the dark, the Epimoni had feasted upon the flesh of the Rex, and even now, they are well fed by the clams of the Seia. Their warriors were legion armed in the best equipment of the Cresh, they were stronger, faster, tougher then the rest, how could anyone not bend the knee? Misplaced pride and ego. But when the darkness comes, when the abyss is staring at them, the others will quake, praying for others to save them, but not the Epimoni. The Epimoni will stand strong, they will gaze into the abyss and break it to their will, and sooner or later, the others will bend the knee for it is an inevitability.<br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
The Bamboo Pavilion, the grand structure at the heart of the Glasswall and the seat of Epimoni power, the leathers of the beast slain by the Epimoni covered its frame, protected from the elements, it was a site of gathering for the people, a symbol of power for within lay the Throne of Tyrants. The skull of the great Tyrannosaurus that had been slain by the first queen. The skull was etched, covered in fine blackscale leathers, and the floor was covered in soft baked mushrooms and it was here, within the Pavilion, at the foot of the throne, that the chosen of the Epimoni rested. It was not as beautiful as some of the structures in the Cresh, but it was the Epimoni, it was simple, it was regal, it was <i>powerful</i>. Slaves milled about, protected from the horrors of the outside in return for preforming basic labor, while the warriors of the Epimoni lived as warriors do. They feasted, they told tales of their hunts and triumphs, they wrestled and fought, occasionally, pairs would break off to go to their home, or even just beyond sight, to engage in fighting of another kind. The Epimoni were tall, broad, their bodies well built with knotted muscle, many sported scars that littered their bodies, proof of their triumphs and toughness. Most would be considered rather fetching, but the Epimoni men and women were a bit of an 'acquired' taste as under their dark scale armor was skin coated in mud. The mud was something they had done since their founding, it helped them hide in the shadows, it hid their scent and protected them from the insects that made the Cresh unpleasant to live in if they strayed too far from the light. It had started off as practical, but now had grown to be something akin to a custom. It served as a stark contrast to the Seia clan, the healer vassals of the Epimoni, who tended to be well bathed, on their home on the waterfront, and beautiful especially when compared to the barbaric visage of the Epimoni, the veritable princesses guarded by the zealous dragons.<br>
<br>
Yet it was within this place of power, of prestige, that the greatest of all the 'dragons' dwelled. Zahra Epimoni, the second and current queen, who had killed her mother to claim the throne. She was large, even for an Epimoni, her body swelled with muscle and coiled power, her presence alone enough to strike awe, or fear, into all those who were near... But she was not a beauty. Her eyes were almost swollen shut, and with her naturally darker complexion and the mud that always covered her, from a distance, it appeared as if she had no eyes at all. Her nose was smashed flat, her lips were cracked against her teeth giving her a rather ghoulish snarl when she deigned to smile. The only 'nice' thing about her was her hair, braided ebony hair flowed that was meticulously cared for, her only 'beautiful' asset that Zahra guarded jealously [Jealous]. The Queen of the Epimoni was not a fool, she knew she was hideous [Smart]. She saw it every time someone looked at her, how they flinched when she smiled, how they stared, or did not, stare [Smart/Insecure]. Perhaps, in another life, if she had not been given so much of 'Mother's Love' she would have been beautiful, like Aayliah. Men and women would desire her, as they desired Odette of the Seia [Jealous/Insecure], but that was not so, nor would it ever be so. The men that pursued her did so only out of greed, to further themselves in society, or did so because they knew she desired them and so went through with it for fear of reprisal. They feared their Queen. They respected their Queen. They loved their Queen. But none would ever love <i>her </i>[Jealousy/Insecure<i>]</i>. As her swollen eyes watched those below her, as she watched two young men whisper to one another as they lightly touched the others arms, as they glanced around to see if any was paying attention, she could not help but wonder what that was like [Jealous], when they noticed her looks, both of them recoiled, and she offered them a challenging smile, her cracked lips pulled back over her teeth in a nasty snarl, like a feral cat watching her prey, and as they froze, as they stepped apart, as they lowered their heads, she felt a swell of satisfaction from the fear in their eyes, how quickly they submitted to her, how uncomfortable she could make them [Cruel]. She would never be a beauty, she would never be desired, but she would always be needed [Utterly Defiant].<br>
<br>
Boredom was a dangerous thing, it was something Zahra had realized once her mother had passed. Before she never had time to consider it, life had been pain, she moved from one beating to the next, slurping what food she could get through broken jaws as she fought and clawed just to survive to the next day, the feeling of broken ribs stabbing into her organs as she laid awake at night trying to sleep. Her mother would beat her, and the Epimoni would watch. They would watch, they would sneer, some would joke in hopes to gain her mother's favor... the same people that watched her get beaten, who sneered down at the ugly child with the broken face, could now only bow in her presence, lower their heads and prostrate themselves before her in hopes of escaping her notice or fury, it brought a perverse sense of pleasure to her [Cruel]. The only kindness she had received as a child was from the Seia healers that would be called when her mother went particularly too far, when she was barely clinging to life through sheer will [Utterly Defiant].. No one knew better then Zahra the value of the Seia [Smart] and while she would forever be jealous of their beauty, that left men and women stunned, she would always hold them in high value  for they were the greatest treasure the Epimoni had [Smart/Jealous]. But now, without the beatings, without the pain, she had nothing but time and her thoughts [smarts]. Her mother's legacy was all around them, she was even sitting upon her mother's greatest achievement, what would be Zahra's mark? She had killed her mother, she had tore off her leg and stabbed her with it, had brought death to the woman who had shown her only pain and, in that moment, even as tears fell from her eyes as her mother choked on her blood, as she laughed at her mortality, Zahra had felt happiness for the first time in her life, freedom [Cruel/Utterly Defiant]. She had taken the throne from her mother, but now she had to take the legacy [Jealous]. She had to become known as a far better queen then her, to lead the Epimoni to new, greater heights so that when their children spoke of her, it would not be of the broken faced child begging for love, it would be the powerful queen who bent the knee of man [Insecure/Jealousy/Smart/Utterly defiant]<br>

<br>
<b>Actions<br>
1.</b> Slave Labor will be used to construct a training field with Bamboo dummies to allow for the Epimoni to train in the art of war relatively safely.<br>
<br>
<b>2.</b> The Epimoni Warriors are going to train to fight as large units. They will learn to fight using shield walls, to outflank, to ambush, they will learn how to hurl their javelins boosted by atlatls and disrupt formations and maim shields before smashing into them. A military Meritocracy will be implemented, based on the Right to Rule, where the strongest, smartest, fastest warriors can rise to become Déka, a commander of ten. Déka are going to be used to give greater tactical flexibility, allowing commands to be issued and control to be maintained over larger forces, but officer initiative is to be commended. Battle is a flux, standing orders may not account for all things, as the Epimoni well know, the best laid plans end once someone get's punched in the face, if a Déka can see an opportunity to grasp victory, they are encouraged to do so using their training and knowledge. It is rumored that once the military grows large enough, a new high position of Ekató, commander of a hundred, will be created. Any Epimoni injured in this training will be healed by Seia healers. [<b>Extra Note:</b> Zahra fought in a 'large' scale battle against a force of Grimmory and she got to put some of the 'units of ten' concept into practice]<br>
<br>
<b>3. </b>Right to Rule: Slavery Reform will be initiated. At the moment, all clanless are taken as slaves, regardless of their ability. This is not right. The slaves will be gone through and examined, those with special abilities or knowledge [War, crafting, construction, etc] will be given the ability to earn their freedom and join the Epitanny, a new clan, that will be given rights and allowed to forge their own destiny under the reign of the Epimoni. All slaves can earn their freedom, if they have the strength and skills to do so, such is the Right to Rule. Those that do not, will remain slaves, but the ability to rise above their station will always be present for all those who come for the path to salvation does not lie in nature, nor in nonsensical light, it lies in the quality of one's own spirit and the strength of their back.<br>
<br>
<b>4.</b> The Epimoni will aid the Seia [Eloise] in hunting the Sealaconda <i>[a serpent with the head of a sealion... these things do not see people as prey, thankfully. they do compete for waterplants though, and no waterplants can be harvested while they exist. (stalemate on resource waterplants)]</i> so they may gain access to the waterplants.</span>​</div></div>

<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff"><span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">They were the Clan that made the armor that most warriors in both the Quarry Council and the Glasswallers wore. It was they who made the most glorious of buildings and items that mystified and had the people felled with Awe before them. It was this CLAN, following her GREATNESS that will even be led into the FUTURE with her greatest invention yet! The MEDIUM ARMOR! A new revolutionary idea that she came up with and that through her genius and skill as a prodigy will be brought to fruitition and greatness! No one else could do it. No one else has the skill. It will be her hands and her mind that will lead this path to GLORY. Both in this Blacksmith Hold and eventually on the field against her now hated enemy. (EGOTISTICAL)</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG! (HARDWORKING)<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">The Jestercult. The HATED Jestercult. They come to her home and not only try to brainwash her people, but also take control of HER mind. HER powerful and skillful mind. Make HER think their THOUGHTS. (Egotistical) That somehow rotting in the ground to become Flesh Trees was better than life in the Quarry. That it was okay for people in the Quarry to BELIEVE this idea!</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG! (HARDWORKING)<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">THAT SHE WOULD EVER WILLINGLY BELIEVE SUCH BULLOTAUR SHIT OUTSIDE OF MIND MAGIC WAS UNCONSCIONABLE!!!</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG! (HARDWORKING)<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">Oh yeah. And some of the other leaders were mind controlled by this Standing Man as well. It was just a good thing that when Hega slashed the bastard down that we were freed from that line of thought. Our minds were our own once more. It was time that THE QUARRY COUNCIL did something and as such, with Yaas taking the lead, she declared that THE QUARRY COUNCIL was at WAR with the JESTERCULT.</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG! (HARDWORKING)<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">When people grumbled, they were willingly shown the Grand Library and some turned away from the nonsense of the Flesh Trees. Those that didn't, were shown the door, never to be once again allowed into The safety of THE QUARRY. They willingly chose darkness over the LIGHT of THE LIGHTHOUSE. And as such, they will wallow in it. If they did not embrace the Light, they did not deserve the warmth of the FORGE. HER FORGE. THE FORGE OF THE VIVALDI CLAN!!! (EGOTISTICAL)</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG!<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">So now. Now she began in response to build her greatest concept yet. Using her constant skillful negotiation skills on the Queen of Glasswall( EGOTISTICAL), she gained 20 units of Wyrmbone. With Wyrmbone and the unlimited supply of Quartz from the Quarry, soon, THE MEDIUM ARMOR shall be born of her own two hands!! SHE WILL BIRTH THIS CREATION AND BE VALIDATED BY THE FAMILY AS NOT ONLY A PRODIGY AMONG THE VIVALDI CLAN, BUT ALSO AMONG ALL THAT RESIDE WITHIN THE CRESH! (Egotistical)</span></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #ffffff">CLANG!<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(251, 160, 38)">In between these constrictions, she knew that she had to train an elite fighting force to be able to fight the Jestercult within their own home. She would start it and call it, The Vivaldi Crusaders. they would be small, but powerful. Perhaps in time, it would grow. But for now, an elite force was what SHE needed. She wanted revenge on the Jestercult. NOONE MESSES WITH HER MIND AND GETS AWAY WITH IT! (Egotistical) And, to a lesser extent, her people as well.</span></span><br>

It will help spread the Light and the Holiness that comes from that Light. It is the Light from the Lighthouse and the eternal flames of the forge that help to drive away the invaders. The Light keeps them away, but the weapons and armor that come from the forge make certain that they'll stay away.</span></span><br>

1. Craft as many MEDIUM ARMOR as she can.  (Quartz and Wyrmbone)<br>
<br>
2. Train an elite fighting force of 8 Soldiers to be known as THE VIVALDI CRUSADERS. (They and herself will all be wearing MEDIUM ARMOR once it is completed and the training will include being able to move/fight and use the armor to its fullest)<br>
<br>
3. If possible try to set up a meeting with the Queen of Glasswall in order to set up a possible military alliance against the JesterCult.</span>​</div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"><span style="font-size: 26px">The Eternal Meditation</span></span>​</div><br>
All shamans were sitting in a lotus position around the Eternal Fire as they meditate on their ancestry - the Sephirah Arts of Enchanting. The Eternal Fire was blazing brilliantly and <b>burning incense</b> was scatted around the hall, giving the shamans a sense of calm and keeping their minds sharp to allow them to sink deeper into their meditation. The <b>efficiency glyph</b> on their forehead was glowing the same golden color as the Eternal Fire. It was constantly activating and helping the shamans keep their mental faculties at top condition and likely even improving it. The arts of the Eternal Hall were also a beauty to behold, allowing them to keep holding on to their beliefs<b>(+1 Inspire, +5 Morale)</b>.<br>
<br>
Raphael Sephirah, the current Grand Enchanter was also sitting on a cushion and meditating before the Eternal Fire but different from the rest, he had a flute in his hands. He brought it up to his lips and began playing gentle music[PERK: GENTLE(?)]. As if in response to the music, the Eternal Fire starting growing then it spread out into six directions and surrounding the shamans but it didn't burn any of them. In the contrary, it made them more comfortable as the strands of the Eternal Fire starting dancing around them. It was as if the Forbearer of the Sephirah, the Grand Enchanter Adam was giving them their blessing and assisting them in developing their ancestry.<br>
<br>
The main purpose of their meditation was to discover more about their ancestry - the very thing that gives them their unique powers. They meditated about the mysteries of the two pairs of Twin Swords of Cursed Flame, the cursed and flaming aspect was something never see before and they wonder if it can be reproduced in their enchantments or other magical aspects. They also recognized their lack of magical energy, it's not enough for what they want to do and they seek to remedy this need. So they began meditating on possible enchantments, glyphs, or wards that could possibly boost their magical energy or gather magical energy to a location. And most importantly, glyphs or wards against his most-hated enemy, the Seg.<br>
<br>
a day before the meditation... Raphael was in deep thought as he stood before one of the great artworks in the Eternal Hall. He was thinking about the recent happenings in the Eternal Hall. The infiltration of the Seg and their lack of labor which leads them to be dependent on the quarry. As mandated by the Grand Enchanter Adam, they were supposed to be reclusive but they have been forced time and time again to open their doors to seek aid. <br>
<br>
Raphael sighed as he looked at Ace next to him who was also admiring the great artwork. <br>
<br>
"I will be making changes to the policy of Eternal Hall. In the coming days, we will open the doors of the Eternal Hall and start accepting servitors." Ace looked at him and was about to protest when Raphael spoke again, "We will still be the core of the Eternal Hall. They will be just that - servitors. They will be the attendants ad labor of the Eternal Hall. We will stop doing manual labor and start focusing on what's important. This decision is final, inform the Shaman Council." <br>
<br>
"As you wish, Grand Enchanter. I will take charge in vetting potential servitors and then secretly bringing them into the Eternal Hall."<br>
<br>
Order Summary:<br>
- The Eternal Hall will open its doors, vet, and then secretly recruit servitors. <br>
<br>
- Raphael with his 5 other Shamans attempt to learn more about enchanting. (Will list it according to the priority)<br>
1. Mind Glyph and/or other possibly related glyph<br>
2. Magic Gathering Ward and/or other possibly related glyphs<br>
3. Curse and Fire Glyphs  and/or other possibly related glyph(From the 4 Swords of Cursed Flame)<br>
4. Some any other extra<br>

"Oh father, you did always had a wonderful smile, a way with words and jokes. I'm sorry for what happened, but I hope that I can be what you saw in me, what you saw then... when I was a little girl. You saw light. We saw light, and in that light you would live forever. Now... I ask you grant me the opportunity to rebuild what was lost, for everyone. As you feared, it seems that not all can see what you could. Not all understand the great ball of light you saw. Not all understand that while we abandon hope, it never abandons us. And... I felt that today. Something came over me, I felt changed only to return as I was. I see that I am just one of many of the children of the light. I am nothing special. I simply possess the pedigree of your legacy. A simple girl. Now allow me to return it to its former glory.<br>
For the Aeon speak of light, we understand darkness. For only light can expel it, and to best expel it, we must understand. Father, I do hope you smile and crack jokes this day. And I hope I am worthy of your legacy, as the first cowgirl, whatever that means."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">(Disclaimer: this is strictly an opening post to establish character personality and joining of a faction. All of these events happened prior to the beginning of Generation 2, despite the obvious time inconsistency)<br>
<br>
Darkness seemed to be the cruel nature of this world. The gloomy atmosphere so oppressive it seemed to physically press people to the ground, suffocating from above and uncomfortably prodding from below. The inkiness the girl awoke to was so complete and unbroken that it took her a minute to register that she was, in fact, awake, alive, and had her eyes wide open. She rose to a sitting position slowly, body stiff and mind abuzz with questions and a growing fear. The only comfort to be found was in the milling confusion she found herself surrounded with, as other bodies stirred into consciousness around her. And what a hollow comfort it was. Not even the feeble light the lantern next to her emanated offered any solace, only illuminated the stinging horrors that descended upon her as soon as she stirred; no rest for the wicked. As people naturally gravitated and huddled into groups, she found herself in one such small circle too, lanterns coalesced into the centre to better perceive the opposing members. Opposing? Were they to be seen as natural competitors in a world of limited resources? Was the lantern not telling enough of strength in numbers? But she saw it too; how warily various people carried themselves, sharp rock ready - not as a tool, but as a weapon. In the end, fear made monsters of men.<br>
<br>
<span class="bbcode-justify">She watched the other groups rapidly progress, relying on a hierarchy of brute force or a show of ability. As it would in a world so hellbent on snuffing out your light, no? The girl drew her scraps of clothing closer to her body, watching the sift of eyes in the people around her grow increasingly more suspicious as time passed, most having made up their mind of which faction to support, who they wished to follow. But others still were crippled with fear, helplessness. In a world where the strong and capable survived, and fear and desperation drove the masses to survival... was there no other way one was to live?<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'"> [NAIVE]</span></span></span><br>
Despite everything; the hostile surroundings, the questioning stares, the mounting aggression, the rising stakes, Candy mustered a smile at the people around her. The world could use a little kindness right now.<br>
<br>
"You know, in circumstances like these, the last thing I see in helplessness. I know things look bad, and survival seems impossible, and everything just seems terrible. But look at the will in everybody. Look how all we have is a tool," She brushed her fingers along her lantern, "and our spirits that burn bright. See how everybody, <i>everybody </i>is looking for a reason to keep going despite how hard things are. Everybody is saying, 'hey! Staying alive is really hard right now! Death would come easier but all I need is a reason, a reason to keep living! Even if it's just a stick, I don't care if it's a stick, give me a stick to fight with and I can stay alive!' I think that's incredible. With no hope, running on nothing but fumes, you're willing to cut through a hundred miles of hostile jungle with nothing but a stick, if that's what it takes to get you to safety. You're saying 'Give me a stick, <b>I'm not dying out here</b>' if that's what it takes to survive."<br>
<br>
She tilted her head at the growing audience, enraptured by her words laced with positivity and hope. She smiled at them yet again, and somehow the darkness didn't seem so oppressive. Somehow, the lanterns seemed to burn just a little bit brighter. But that was probably her imagination, right? "My words have nothing to do with how great everybody's feats are. All I'm doing is handing out sticks. You're the ones staying alive." And for the first time, she wasn't the only one smiling in that circle. <span style="font-family: 'courier new'"><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><b>[HYPED]</b></span></span> <span style="font-family: 'courier new'">[Morale boosted]</span><br>
<br>
Honey drew more flies than vinegar. Candy soon found herself surrounded by a willing, nay, doting throng of followers, who seemed to go out of their way to ensure her comfort if it meant they received kind words and a hopeful smile. It was unfortunate how drippings kept these people alive, the most insignificant of honey trails and the most obscure of hopes that things could be alright. She soon found herself armed with a functional knife and a smattering of objects that were foraged from somewhere. One even deigned to give her an accessory, a necklace fashioned of a stray thread and a single shard of obsidian, and the dazzling smile of happiness she gave him sent him into a flurry of servitude for the rest of his activities. It was difficult to measure day and night, but people toiled on; they rested when they needed, and banded together as the only form of survival. Candy to her measure did her level best to keep the populace happy and healthy; she turned out to be an exceptional cook who made the best out of whatever ingredient they could throw at her. Even the most vile of mushrooms could be deigned to be edible if passed by her dexterous hands, and she always sampled her dishes before passing it on to her followers; a rare act of service, but one of the only she could do. She was not talented in combat, nor was she physically strong, so she served in the only way she knew how - making sure the others could achieve things to the best of their abilities. And knowing that at the very least their next meal was guaranteed kept the people going strong.<br>
<br>
It had not been smooth sailing always, of course. Famine and drought came to all; there were times when they had nothing to eat except the filthy oily water and the flesh of the dead. Many chose death over such indignities, others still wept as they ate the bodies of the fallen. Candy herself starved away to nothing but skin and bones until she could be persuaded to eat some flesh, carefully masking its flavour with insect bile and the bitterness of her own tears. It was in part only the hope she provided her people with enthusiastic stories and cheerful words that the people found it within themselves to keep going. Hard times passed too, as they always do, but Candy always carried a length of bamboo, carefully cleaned and maintained, with the names of the fallen etched deeply into it. The lesson itself was engraved even more deeply within her mind, and she pushed hard to improve her abilities so that her followers may never see such days again. In perhaps the most desperate of these exercises, she stung herself with venomous insects over and over, every day, so that if the day comes when she must survive on insects so the rest of the clan may feed, she will be immune to their venom. It was difficult at first; her followers fell into deep despair at the thought of losing her and her resources - the venom was strong, stronger than she expected owing to her small, frail frame. She nearly didn't make it out. Only nearly though. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">[OVERZEALOUS]</span></span><br>
<br>
Her nature did not always serve her well either. Her gentle innocence attracted all kinds of unsavoury characters, and it was not within her to turn them away. It was not within her to harbour any sort of suspicion against those stray brushes of hands, against those 'accidental' bumps against her, those gazes and eventually hands that wandered a little too far from a friendly interaction. If anything, it pushed her harder to accept those members as part of her society, ignoring her niggling instincts and quietening her doubts. She tried hard to convince herself of the vast and varying natures of people, how it doesn't mean anything; she tried hard to convince herself that she should treat them as any other follower. She tried hard to convince herself she did the right thing when she answered their seemingly innocent request to help them collect mushrooms, just out of range of the lanterns. In the darkness lurked monsters, and sometimes they wore the skins of men. There was a twisted humor in watching a candle snuff, in watching an object shatter, in watching a creature in fear. And sometimes this enjoyment is a deep and carnal instinct. Through pain comes wisdom, and that day she grew very wise. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">[NAIVE]</span></span><br>
<br>
But it was also not within her nature to suffer in silence. A little known side of her, a little spark that kept her own spirit burning bright; when a good man goes to war, the devil trembles. And revenge seemed to come all too easily. Slowly, gently, a death by inches, that's how a life is taken... The insidious effects of cooking food by bamboo fire led to a slow buildup of ill health. Oh, she was careful, she covered her tracks well. Food was a requirement for all to survive, and none knew it's workings better than she did. She moulded the meals carefully, left them to "stay warm" in a closed kiln, sweating in the poisoned air of the filthy bamboo fished from the waterlines. It happened slowly, people fell as they walked, laid ill for days into weeks into months, blindness and nausea, weakening and bleeding from every orifice. Oh, she acted the perfect concerned leader part, knowing her rule was secure, and their demise, imminent. And the decisive blow; she would not kill them. One fine day, their "get-well soon" meal, prepared specially by her own hand, delivered by herself and her personal guard, left at their isolation doorstep with a <i>sickeningly </i>sweet smile. It was a slow-acting poison, and soon they were expelling the food and blood in violent retches. The worst of the lot raised a single accusing finger upon her, and shockingly, she burst into tears. Time stilled. When the stout smile, it's a miracle. When the cheerful cry, it is akin to watching an angel weep. Angry murmurings rose from the crowd, even as she made a show of wiping her tears and denying all allegations. That she did it out of good will, that she did not poison them, that she would never harm them. She spun stories laced with more lies than poison in her food, and in her final show of conviction, she offered to eat a portion of the food still leftover in her cooking utensil. Everyone's breath caught as she spooned the still-hot food into her mouth, waiting until she finished it all before exploding in accusation, except this time it was targeted at the sick and the ailing. Angry whispers of framing and jealousy rose to shouts, and the girl tearfully asked if they could ever trust her again. There was an uncomfortable pause, and the sickly rose to their feet and hobbled off into the darkness, holding their lanterns aloft. Candy watched the light drift into the distance slowly until the darkness swallowed it, and her smile returned, but this time it was a smirk of victory. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"><span style="font-family: 'courier new'">[VINDICTIVE]</span></span><br>
<br>
But the debacle showed her one thing. That perhaps there really were forces out there that she, for her lack of better judgement, could not protect herself from. That given the situation, she would not be able to defend herself in a physical... altercation. That she lacks strength to protect herself and her followers from what evil can lurk within her followers. And so she had to set into plan a different action, derived of, you guessed it, food. It required days of immaculate planning, drifting closer and closer to the Glasswallers before the big day. It was an event; a freshly killed Festrog, a rarity of meat in the faction of foragers, was hauled into the centre for the skillful chef to do her magic. She took a deep breath and got to work; she made sure not a single bit of the animal was wasted, to fully appreciate the sacrifice of the creature. Carefully she extracted droplets of fat from the meat, smoked the bones until the marrow was tender and dripping, making a delicious emulsion of the lard and the marrow. For a clan of warriors such as the Epimoni, whose great deeds carried across the wind in the Cresh, only the finest cuts of meat; Candy prepared the thigh, rich in muscle and fat. Warrior required such, surely! Kept the heart pumping and the blood rushing strong!

Hers was a meandering path in the dark before reaching the relative safety of the glasswall... and her followers were groomed, gilded, and garnered with the care and enthusiasm Candy alone could summon. The bad element in her following -- was dealt with harshly, vindictively, and those more pure of heart she protected even as they were subjected to threefold horrors between every rest.<br>
<br>
<b>Candy's faction is "Blooded and Proven" </b>(add to lineage) -- their loyalties tested, their devotion proved. Candy's excitement was it's own lantern -- and woe be unto those that fell in it's shadow, but lofty were the spirits that remained in it's grace...<br>
<br>
They reached Glasswall in a black, oily rain... seeing the lamps and fires in the distance they would press on. Something special was found in the darkness by Candy's band... a single branch <b>(1 unit) of Godswood. </b>-- The entire area around was drained of moisture, despite the patter of the rain, as if all that was life-giving collected in this single branch of Azure wood and bluish leaves that seemed to shine in the darkness.<br>
<br>
All the predators and wicked were purged from her following... but one perhaps... <b>Distinguished henchman: "The Letch" </b>-- he was mysterious and tall, almost a mummy in all the rags he wore, and he lived and died for Candy with a burning passion of one who's mind was sick. The Letch was her secret guardian... and many a threat came for Candy that Candy never saw, because the Letch was always there. The letch carried a single hair that had fallen from Candy's head like a talisman... a being obsessed, always at the periphery, but always with one eye on his cathexus... Candy was the soul to this soulless person. As they neared the glasswall Candy could feel his stare behind her grow more intense... would she rid herself of this burning admirer? Should she, could she use him to solidify her safety and her leadership? She would need to decide...<br>
<br>
<br>
Candy's group arrived at the glasswall with a meal for the Black Queen... would they find safety and acceptance here?</div>

Many hoped to prove themselves in the coming trials, so they paid special attention to the techniques of the warriors. <br>
When the time came, they would need to demonstrate THEIR strength. <br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Among the burnt brushes, the retinue of the Argead walked through this past battlefield, not long ago... they had slain numerous Grimmory and the Bisontaur here. Yet, they returned to this site of desolation and death. Normally, there would be little reason, but today there were a few compelling reasons to visit this site. The hills were the site where they first encountered the Seg... where Raphael had encountered the manifestation of the Seg... and where the Pale Witch had noticed something buried in the trench where the Bisontaur had crashed. The Argead could not help but feel like these events were all connected somehow. These were HUGE coincidences after all. Thus, the retinue arrived with carts of tools and iron. Their goal was simple. To excavate the area and recover the buried object. Silently, the Argeans approached the site of the Bisontaur's death, yet despite the lack of sounds they seemed to keep themselves organized and coordinated with each other with ease.<br>
<br>
---<br>
<br>
Summary: The Argeans return to the site of the battle with the Bisontaur to excavate the area and recover the buried object that the Pale Witch had noticed during the battle. Working silently, they still work together using their telepathy to coordinate their work while using their mindscreen to remain hidden from psychic attuned monsters and beings.<br>
<br>
Perks: Brilliant (Compounded), Observant, Charming<br>
<br>
Quirks: Hero Syndrome, Sarcastic, Workaholic, Overambitious</div>

MINDFORCE BLOOD,<br>

Mindforce Powers: uses psychic stress to disrupt an enemy's concentration and battle prowess, and some say with practice read minds. Bloods with mindforce grant bonuses to themselves and/or allies in contests/combat, and more easily give the opposite to rivals. It is said there are other talents this ancestry can bring in the darkness such as sensing the unseen, but such powers are developed over generations in a bloodline...<br>

50% more mana, .5 more power to your abilities.<br>

<br>
A pale albino woman, with a FOCUSED and CONTEMPLATIVE personality (perks), BLUNT to a fault in conversation (quirk). Wears threadbare clothes, carries a lit lantern, mindspike wand (double damage using offensive magic), and sharp rock.<br>
<br>
Knows 'mindblast' spell.<br>
<br>
Followed by forty lantern bearers, renewables of ink, insects, and (purest) water, one unit of oil, twenty units of Bisontaur meat, four units of brass.<br>

Additional community renewables of green herb, red herb, human bone, quartz, and stone in the quarry camp. Stepwell use is public.<br>

Controls stepwell and library buildings.<br>

</div><br>​</div>Ras, and now Cyrus... Eostre gladly merged her Ciun with the stone-faced Argead when the personality cult matured into religious faith. She was their sword, and they her shield. His savage ribaldry, in this life and the last, amused her greatly as the gracious host to his flock again and again. In a way, she owed him more than she could ever possibly repay the prophet and savior born of Inner Light.<br>
<br>
The library and her life's work were nearly behind her, concerns of fulfilling the needs of her people and the Quarry a distant memory when the wind blew and rain fell as if to proclaim his resurrection. He inspired her to continue her story to see what epilogue would come instead of resigning the rest of her life to curating unending shelves of clay tablets. Generations would grow to read and write and know the achievements of their ancestors because of her, but something was missing from the tapestry that eluded her until now.<br>
<br>
Dedication to the preservation and proliferation of knowledge for the betterment of the future would mean nothing if she left those around her that would raise their charges to adulthood ignorant. It was necessary to nurture the intellect of the civilization around her to unlock their full potential, and in so doing, ensure that they do not tarnish their progeny. The masses would soon learn to speak, and act, as the Argead and their faithful Ciun adherents did.<br>
<br>
Melting the brass from the split helm of the Bisontaur to mint into coinage displaying the equal halves symbol of the Inner Light belief, she and her followers find an empty and central location within the Quarry to build a tall obelisk to temporarily display newly fired clay tablets providing information and entertainment. Right in front of it, a raised platform is constructed before rows of benches for lantern bearers to come watch a glut of teachers, performers, philosophers, heralds, and merchants, exchange ideas and wares at this would-be heart of the community. To incentivize attendance, those who stay to the end of the early assemblies are given the new coins that can be exchanged for prepared cuts of Bisontaur meat to help usher in the birth of intellectual debate and currency-driven commerce. The Ciun also act as a bank to safeguard any coin deposits on behalf of their owners, and if need be reforge coins to reenter circulation.<br>
<br>
After trading with the nomadic Singers arriving in the Quarry as of late, exchanging Ciun's 'purest' water for their gold, Eostre chooses to mint some gold coins to supplement the lesser brass coinage.</div>

<br>
<u>Key</u><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">Disciplined: Green</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">Clear Headed: Light Blue</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">Misguided: Grey</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">Corrupter: Red</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Dissociated:</span> <span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Dark Blue</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">Artistic: Yellow</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Delusional: Rose</span><br>
<br>
<br>
Spora walked through the twisted and dank burrow that was the home of the Nihtur, a safe haven to all those who would <span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">accept the truth of this world.<br>
<br>
That everything was for naught in this dark dangerous world. All that lay beyond this burrow, and outside the jungle of JesterTrees meant nothing. This world was cruel, its denizens even crueller, each one killing the other to only be killed by something worse. It was all just pointless.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">But something stood apart, beyond the futile struggles of the living, above the constant death. gaining nourishment and enrichment from the unrelenting circle of destruction...<br>
<br>
The Plants of the Penumbra</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">So why fight it?</span><span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"> Spora realised, those countless years ago</span>. Back when her hair was not a wizened grey and her skin was supple, and not rough and creased like the trees that surrounded her. <span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">It was just the way of things, she had accepted that fact long ago</span>. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">And so had all the others around here, anointing themselves with bloodied hands of past lives and seeded by the JesterTrees, that they had so long ago grovelled before</span>. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">But the Nihtur now stood as part of this extreme ecosystem, </span><span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">beyond struggle, beyond pain, beyond death.</span><br>
<br>
Though they were not immortal, <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">they all knew their demise fulfilled their only true purpose in this ethereal existence</span>.<br>
<br>
As fuel for the flora.<b> <br>
<br>
Beneath the bones, and feathers that adorned, under the leathers and rags that ensconced her body, </b><span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b>Spora had become the ultimate canvas to express their existence. </b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">Painful and agonising, <b>The first of the Nihtur had let her Filthy Priest work into her flesh the tattoos of symbols and scribbling's</b></span><b>, transferring her teachings from the vellium that she had conceived, the fatty tissues a parchment on which to scribe with ink fed feathers, allowing </b><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"><b>Di Dru to hone his artistic craft with ink and needle</b></span>. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">In flesh, the First Faith would live on, a fitting use for a fleeting thing. <b>Wherever the Nihtur went, their beliefs would now follow, and when their lives were extinguished, the trees within would now teach</b></span><b>, beyond this stained shrine.</b><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)"><b>With mucus and water, yolk and blood, this wood had become a forest of faith. Rocks had become paintings, small stones were strung together into mottled mosaics, the very soil saturated in paint of red and purple hues. And the burrow, a mural to their faith. Lined with art of death; a JesterTree erupting forth from within, the destruction of beasts, their blood quenching the soil and shining lights and dangling hands atop the world and leading the willing to their true purpose</b></span>. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)"><b>Drawn by Di Dru perhaps in his madness he had made something beautiful....</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Though she walked within the catacombs of canvas. she let herself not be drawn to the murals on the wall nor the shallow sob from the incubation chamber.</span><br>
<br>
Brought to their doors by the Man Who Stands, an eloquent and honourable man who deemed himself unworthy of entry within the burrow. Instead he had gone to preach the First Faiths cause, and with it brought exiles, believers of the faith deemed evil.<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)"> A perplexing thought mused Spora.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">She had planned to send her Filthy Priest as an envoy to the people of the Quarry, to educate them on the true ways of this world, while she herself went to the visit the 'Tyrant Queen' but the Man who Stands had gone in unaffiliated stead. His message however had not graced the people of the Glass wall, only the Quarry folk</span><span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">. </span><span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b>Perhaps her recent encounters with the new queen might still bear fruit</b></span><span style="color: #a38f84">.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b>Still she had already gained followers. The babes and youths of the Quarry were placed within the incubation chambers, to show them the pointlessness of it all.</b></span> <span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)"><b>Though with gentle care and delicate fingers, the children tried to raise the Blindbirds, the fragility of the feathery beings made it all futile</b></span><b>.</b><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">As was everything in this world. </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)"><b>Through teary eyes and broken hope</b></span><b>,</b><span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b> the children would learn that life was naught but meat for the plants of the Penumbra</b></span><b>.</b><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">And nothing could change that.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #54acd2"><b>The Elderly would gather the fallen seeds of the JesterTrees, their bodies frail and weathered. The oldest and youngest would not be seeded yet, their growing and ancient bodies unsuitable hosts for the JesterTrees. </b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">Though she could feel the wood creak, their meat dripping as if salivating at the prospect, the people would do their part for the plants in the end. Through their toil or death it did not matter.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #54acd2">Even her death, rapidly approaching, <span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">the knotting of her grassroots gut and swelling stomach a good indicator to her parasites predilection did not faze her</span>. Going outside, she would simply wait to die...</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #54acd2">Her body was just <span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">sustenance for the soil</span>, after all.  </span><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 18px">The Nihtur turn themselves and the JesterTree forest into champions of the First Faith, the Forest and Burrow made into a shrine and holy site and the Nihtur it's dedicated devotees</span>​</div></div>

<br>​</div>Amaraa softly makes her way to the top of the lighthouse, using her powers to make a temporary amplifier to her voice so that all could hear her in the quarry. She wore a circlet that puffed soft rainbow mist at a constant pace.<br>
<br>
"My dear friends, my dear brothers and sisters of Light, we face incredible darkness ahead of us. Nothing new. We have survived, cherishing our light in our bid to cleanse the darkness from our view. We have made enormous strides toward that dream, but we now seek to answer for the future, for leadership. We have made a nation, a home for ourselves. We have shown our compatriots that iron-fisted rule is not necessary and that it is not the path moving forward. However, someone should take an executive position to manage affairs that debate cannot suffice in a timely manner. But, we should wary of relying on one man or woman to wield absolute power. Darkness whispers in the ears of those that wield it, corrupting them. My father, Niko Xygaras, understood this very well. He did not ask you to be your leader for he understood the dangers of doing so prematurely. He understood that the Quarry council was a blessing for it gave promise to just and fair governance that could weather the corrupting storm that darkness has shifted over power."<br>
<br>
"But, my dear brothers and sisters of Light, I speak this not to bore you. This is quite relevant for our discussion this day. We remember the day when grimmories ran from the 'library' as the alarm was sounded. Why were they there? Why had there been little evidence of a struggle? I arrived there that moment and scanned the scene. Calm for the beast's nature and their violent nature. Days earlier we had hunted and eradicated them in a fell swoop. They left that night and we've seen little of their kind since. Why? What was the purpose of their arrival? Why did the patrols not intercept the beasts before they reached so deep? Many questions yet, so little answers. The Agread has made no comment, which is strange. Something of critical concern to our security pushed aside for other projects, which I know of..."<br>
<br>
“Over alerting us to security concerns, he instead encouraged the slaves of Glasswall to rebel against their queen, a just idea to encourage those to seek freedom when in chains. However, as I have understood, has failed, with no appearance of the Agread at all. Of course, there wouldn’t be. He’s been here with us. I have been making resolutions to use the gifts of the Light and other goods at my disposal to make a peaceful resolution to the issue, to free them. However, that could not be resolved thanks to the Agread. The envoy of the slaves came to me for aid, and they spoke to me of the Agread’s involvement. They spoke such promise and love. Yet, now their lives have been thrown away at the Agread’s hand. From what I can see from here, they have burned in a restless fire. No memory of names in our hearts or our minds. Now they return to the Light as which they came, to join my father with his open arms and loving jokes.”<br>
<br>
Amaraa paused.<br>
<br>
“They did not need to die. No. I was well on my way to a peaceful resolution and a chance to build better relations with Glasswall for all of us, not individual clans or families. For the darkness seeks to divide us, to war amongst ourselves. For it cannot face us together and strong, it must divide us using our fears and insecurities. Not our differences, we all are different in the light’s gaze, for we all its children. We have not one voice but many, not one sight but many, and we are not one person but many. I seek to support and help all flourish in the way my father did those years ago. I seek to fill us with hope, so much so that fear is not a concern. For fear is darkness and if we all we do is ignore it, we do nothing about the darkness it truly is. Only through Hope can we banish this darkness that seeks to undermine our radiance that we inherit from the light. You are radiant ones; you are special and unique. You are not an inner light, but a radiance. Inner light is an insult to what you are. Do not offer yourself to another for them to consume your voice, your radiance. For they consolidate power, and we remember what I said happens to power in one place, it becomes corrupted sooner or later. The Light saw that we all needed radiance to remind us of this fact.”<br>
<br>
“And this turns to the topic many have begun to foresee in my words. What are my thoughts on my opponents? For the Agread, he seems well-intentioned and committed to spreading the light. But, only seems. On the day the great leviathan of the sky fell, on the day he killed it, he did so prematurely, with little thought for our lives. He had no solution to save us from its colossal weight. He asked Yaas and I to release the heat from our structures to divert it from annihilating us all. Yet, even that was not enough… When I asked you to believe in the hope my father gave, a great gale came and saved us all! My father never once mentioned his name, never. My father did not recognize him as savior. And the Agread’s stone tablets be damned to darkness if they dare say otherwise. My father saved us for we believed in hope, in the hope he made when he discovered the Quarry, showed us that we could weather the storm. But, that is not all. My father once told me a story that the elder of the community can attest to, those that traveled with my father to the Quarry…”<br>
<br>
“Before they left, the former queen Aaliyah was challenged by the Agread and in the commotion, he placed his followers to sleep, for them to never awaken as my father never heard of them after that. We know that Glasswall can be brutal, none deny it. Did their ‘savior’ doom them to die? The Agread will speak to these actions or let them lie and allow us to take their silence as admission of the worse. Will the Agread answer to my other questions? Or will the Agread stand by as this litany of issues and malfeasance show us what he truly is? A fraud and a charlatan. I’m sure many of you have questions as well. Will he answer them? Or will he remain silent knowing that I have revealed him for what he is? Will you allow him to destroy you and deny you what you are?”<br>
<br>
“Now for our dear master smith and dear friend Yaas. She is a good woman, one who has supported the works of the Quarry faithfully. However, over our many years of working together, I have noticed clear points that need to be addressed. Firstly, she is a fine craftsman, but she can be easily manipulated when her pride is wounded. Trust me, I’ve recited some of my father’s favorite jokes. She did not take them well. And while she is good in the forge, I fear what the darkness may do to her. And I rather protect her from the machinations my father saw. Secondly and finally, she is a fine craftswoman. Making beautiful works of craft that surpass all in view. Allow me to take leadership so that she may continue to dazzle us with her creations.”<br>
<br>
“Now, finally, I will discuss myself. Something, I will admit is not my strong suit as it is not right to boast oneself. We all say many things, but it is our actions that show who we are. Look around you at the lighthouse, the place we have built, the improvements we’ve made. It was all thanks to hope. All thanks to my father. So, I will finish with that. For I will not speak of what I will do, for you can see what I have done, what the Xygaran family has done. And that should attest to what my leadership shall do.”<br>
<br>
“Shine bright radiant ones as the miracles we are.”</div>

			<div itemprop="text">
				
					<div class="bbWrapper">"There is nothing to fear but fear itself.<br>
<br>
A generation ago, a group of humans gathered and launched their improbable assault against the darkness. Foragers and inventors, leaders and the faithful who had trekked across a deadly and dark expanse to escape predation and fear finally grouped together in an effort to fight back against the horrors of the dark, using the strength of our wills and souls... our inner lights.<br>
<br>
The effort that they began ultimately became stained. It was stained by the predation of Tyranny and fear of the unknown or other; a question that divides our kind and sabotages our efforts against the dark into a stalemate.<br>
<br>
Of course, the answer to this question is already embedded within the principles of this settlement, the Quarry. The Quarry that has at its very core the ideal of equal citizenship under the law; a Quarry that promised its people liberty and justice, and a union of disparate people that could be and should be perfected over time.<br>
<br>
Yet such principles would not be enough to deliver slaves from bondage or provide men and women of every faith and creed their full rights and obligations as citizens of the Quarry. What is needed are citizens in successive generations who are willing to do their part - through protests and struggles, in the depths of the darkness and in the halls of civilization, through battle and diplomacy, and always at great risk - to narrow that gap between the promise of our ideals and the reality of our forefathers.<br>
<br>
This is one of the tasks that we set forth in the Inner Light - to continue the long march of those who came before us, a march for a more just, more equal, more free, more caring, and more prosperous civilization. I chose to run for leadership at this moment in history because I believe deeply that we cannot solve the challenges of our time unless we solve them together, unless we perfect our union by understanding that we may have different stories, but we hold common hopes; that we may not look the same and we may not have come from the same place, but we all want to move in the same direction - toward a better future for our children and our grandchildren.<br>
<br>
Throughout last few years, against all predictions to the contrary, we saw how hungry the people were for this message of unity. Despite the temptation to view my candidacy through a purely ostracizing and religious lens, we won friends and believers among some of the most distant communities in the Cresh. We even won over a friend among the Vivaldi despite being political rivals in this election.<br>
<br>
That is not to say that faith has not been in issue in this election. At various stages in recent history, some figures have deemed me either "too zealous" or "not zealous enough". We saw sectarian tensions bubble to the surface with the arrival of the Man Who Stands. The rumors makers have scoured every single opinion for the latest evidence of religious polarization, not just in terms of faithful and not faithful, but how faithful as well.<br>
<br>
And yet, it has only been in the last few weeks that the discussion of faith has taken a particularly divisive turn. On one end of the spectrum, we're heard the implication that my candidacy is somehow an exercise in religious brainwashing; that it's based solely on the desire of wide-eyed pilgrims to purchase religious reconciliation on the cheap. In addition we've heard vicious lies and mud-slinging propagated by those hungry for power and following a political agenda by the Xygaras platform. They claim we armed and pushed the rebellion in the Glasswall when it was in fact they who gave the rebels manifested armor and encouraged them to rebel. I did not want to see their blood spilled senselessly like that and sought to implement a diplomatic solution with the Vivaldi until the rebellion happened due to the encouragement of the Xygaras' bloody, red hands. Surely the words and wild claims of the Xygaras should be taken as the blind truth. However, even more recently we have even seen and heard of outside influence by the Tyrant on our election in support of the Vivaldi platform with the appearances of vassals of the Tyrant in order to skew the results of the election. The benefactor has sadly seemingly sold her soul and that of the Quarry in an attempt to grasp political power and likely military aid in their crusade against the Jesterwood, a shining beacon of example as to how free and fair this election truly is.<br>
<br>
We've heard from others use of incendiary language and actions to express views that have the potential not only to widen the divide, but views that denigrate both the greatness and goodness of the Quarry, and that rightly offend the faithful and non-faithful alike.<br>
<br>
But the remarks that have caused this recent firestorm weren't simply controversial. They weren't simply a leader's efforts to speak and lash out against perceived threats. Instead, they expressed a profoundly distorted view of the Quarry — a view that sees subversion as endemic, and that elevates what is wrong with the Quarry above all that we know is right with the Quarry; a view that sees the conflicts as rooted primarily in the actions of friends and allies, instead of emanating from perverse and hateful ideologies that seek to divide us.<br>
<br>
As such, these views are not only wrong, but divisive, divisive at a time when we need unity; religiously and politically charged at a time when we need to come together to solve a set of monumental problems - hostile beings such as the Grimmory, limited resources, the looming threat of tyranny, religious tension, and the need to expand beyond the fishbowl known as the Cresh - problems that are neither Argean, Nikoist or Vivaldist, but rather problems that confront us all.<br>
<br>
I would not be running for leadership if I didn't believe with all my heart that this is what the vast majority of people want for the Quarry. I would not have pushed for a fair and free election if I did not believe in the people of the Quarry. This union may never be perfect, but generation after generation has shown that it can always be perfected. And today, whenever I find myself feeling doubtful or cynical about this possibility, what gives me the most hope is the next generation — the young people whose attitudes and beliefs and openness to change have already made history in this first of many elections. That is where we start. It is where our union grows stronger. And as so many people in the prior generation have come to realize over the course of the decades since a group of humans banded together to fight the darkness in the Cresh, there is nothing to fear but fear itself."</div>

Spora<br>

(The first)<br>
<br>
<u>Key</u><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">Disciplined: Green</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">Clear Headed: Light Blue</span><br>

<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">Corrupter: Red</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Dissociated: Dark Blue</span><br>
<br>
Trailing along a path of fire, the plants following at her feet burned by her lanterns light, Spora entered the Quarry. With word travelling far and wide among the cresh, about elections going on within, <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">the First of the Nihtur came to continue what the Man who Stands had so zealously started</span>. <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">With the residents all out to watch and listen, was it not the perfect time to state her cause</span><span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)"> among these fair and free speeches.</span><br>
<br>
Adorned in bone and feather, her leather cuirass tight around her bulging stomach, <span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">Spora kept her gaze high as she was bathed in unnatural light. Use to the darkness of her burrow, or the smoky shine of her pyres, her eyes would take time to adjust to this false brilliance.</span><br>
<br>
Walking towards a great hub of activity, Spora took to the stage and spoke.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"> "Your candidates speeches are pointless. This election an exercise in futility. Your need for mediation meaningless. None of this matters against the darkness and its circle of death. Within these walls you think you can escape darkness? Escape death? Within this hole of hubris, you have faced death so many times, your Light a beacon to it and your Hope a wanting wall against it and though you survive, we all ultimately perish in the end."</span><br>
<br>
Unconsciously her hand drifted to the leathery and mummified one of her hero so long ago, hanging from her neck, entwining her fingers with his for a few moments once more before vacantly letting go.<br>
<br>
"<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">So why prolong your suffering. Your agony. Accept your ephemeral existence as to what it is. Futile. Embrace it! You may strike down one horror, but there will always be more, far worse within the darkness. The only constant in this world for man is death."<br>
<br>
"But one thing stands apart, above the blood and destruction, feeding upon it unflinchingly, without care or regard for life's meaningless struggle. The Plants of the Penumbra. Even amongst you now, stands a towering example.</span>"<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)"> Spora pointed at the beanstalk with her long, painted black nails "Free from struggle and hardship, this plant gives to you great gifts, </span><span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">only seeking and wanting your eventual demise to nourish its roots and grow stronger</span>.<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"> A fitting purpose for a fleeting thing such as Man."</span><br>
<br>
" <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">I am the First of the Nihtur, the First Faith that all religion stems from. Met with bigotry and persecution at the hands of your Leaders, they have taken the truth that i preach </span><span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)">and twisted it for their purpose</span>." Her long grey hair, stemmed with red and green, brushed against her shoulders as she looked upon the crowd, with aged, squinting eyes " <span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">The Inner Light, that which guides you from fear? The corruption of the real truth, the embracing of death and the nourishment your body provides for the fauna. And Hope. The believing of something more for the future. A malfeasance of the freedom from hardship and struggle by simply accepting your fate as nothing within this world. "<br>
<br>
"There is no leader. No Light. No Hope that can save you from the denizens of the darkness. Look upon me and learn the truth."<br>
<br>
Unbuckling her Cuirass and letting her rags fall at her feet in the vast light that was the Quarry, Spora's tattooed body, engraved with her insipid idealogy, would teach all that looked upon her the nihilism of the Nihtur, the First and true Faith.</span>​</div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Anaya of the Singers sits quietly in the crowd, watching the speeches with a tired, almost bored expression. They speak much of what they have done, little of what they will do. And some of them take quite some time to talk about what the others do incorrectly. Philosophical arguments, not plans. <br>
<br>
And this last one... Anaya has seen horrors, certainly. And she understands the will to incorporate into the natural world that already exists here. And that is where the similarities stop. This woman is utterly mad, just the sound of her speaking of such despair as any kind of salvation makes her skin crawl. <br>
<br>
She fiddles with one of her many rings, trying to calm herself. She needs to learn where these people live, and never go within three miles if she can help it. Her people must never come in contact with... whatever this is. Such madness could be contagious for all she knows.<br>
<br>
She sighs, staying seated, as much as she would like to get up and leave. She needs to watch the responses to this insanity.<br>
<br>
Her people are doing their usual, trading gold or help teaching animals for things they need. Tools and weapons, or supplies to make them, more interesting food, perhaps even new friends. She might have them stay longer, to see how this pans out. While they don't live there, the leadership of this settlement may be important to their dealings going forward.<br>
<br>
<b>Singers are interested in trade with the quarry, offering gold and animal handling services</b></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The Troupe moves into the Cresh, beholding the land and those who might live there. The twenty followers move, their heads shaved bald and following the Troupe Master as he guides them on into the Cresh with a grim expression. Moving with the living souls and followers was a host of some twenty man-sized puppets sewn together from materials scavenged on their journey to this place. The puppets lurch about with an eerie solidity that spoke of stuffing and perhaps bone used to build their frames. Their bodies held together by masterful stitching and sewing so that whatever stuffing they had did not leak out.<br>
<br>
For now the Troupe marched on further into the Cresh, not hiding their presence and instead would send word to Glasswall and Quarry of a desire to talk and trade. They weren't a large group by comparison of followers, but the puppets moved with intent to defend them.  They seemed to use the strange dolls/puppets as beasts of burden as well, carrying loaded tirelessly so that the living could focus more on keeping watch or gathering materials for their leader.<br>
<br>
Azon Sikander adjusts the amber glasses he wore, carrying along a finely made kit in his right hand. His lantern was in his left to provide light while a sharp stone was kept stashed for easy access. He felt his bald head in a thoughtful gesture and frowns as he sees this place. This doomed place. He had gathered word from those whose paths he crossed of the strange land. He had heard of Glasswall and its Queen. Word had  come as well of the Quarry and its election.<br>
<br>
"Alas, my friends, we must be the heralds. This lot is too busy squabbling over power," declared Azon to his followers.<br>
<br>
The Troupe began to erect a plinth from what material they found between the two locations along what might be a main road or path between them. They must spread their word even as they worked to make connections and find supplies to trade for even if it was by renting out puppet labor or their own skills in the working of needles and sewing. No signs of hostility were made, only pleas of a crowd to gather round and listen of the dread tale they must tell.  Any who stopped would be welcomed, offered trade of Liferoot and then invited to hear the dire news.<br>
<br>
"Awaken, children of the Cresh! Know that the time of life in this place is coming to an end! We have seen it, the doom that comes to your lands! We have seen the eggs pouring forth into the waters, the terrible beasts that will erupt from them! You are no longer safe here! Rally yourselves! Save yourselves! Travel from this place before the DOOM is birthed and this land consumed! Gather up your lives and goods, gather up your courage! There will be no survival come the turn of a lifespan in this place! We are not mad, we have seen the DOOM and come to warn you!"<br>
<br>
So declared Azon and his followers at their waypoint, hoping any would hear their warning.<br>
<br>
Some also have asked for 'Those Who Sing', curious about meeting their leader.</div>

With the Argead in presence, meditation swiftly turned towards to mind in the Hall of Eternal fire. Opening the first "eye of the wind" as the Argead called it, enabled the shamans to see, more or less, in the dark (30 feet dim vision in darkness) -- many secrets danced before them... but they lacked the mana to chase and realize them. One thing they all noted, was that the prison they had built for the Seg's consciousness was dissolving. Either into some form of death, or back to the creature that projected it, they were unsure... but when their meditations were concluded, the prison was empty. This was a jail for a LIVING specimen, not a projection inhabiting another individual... It was typical that the Seg would not be undone so easily... (though it had been cursed) -- those in attendence would know the Seg was whole again... and perhaps an even greater threat...<br>

For her part, Amaraa and her followers rebuilt the lighthouse in a similar grandeur to that of her father. The design was different, shedding it's light mainly in the quarry, and it was covered in spikes and deterrents to keep the ubiquitous flyers off of the thing.<br>

The ring of red herbs was planted outside the walls as an early warning system and had already in places begun to thrive. Soon enough, any breach from the ground could be seen incoming, if not traced outgoing...<br>

 -- the Argead went back to the scene of the battle of the grimmory and the Bisontaur.<br>
There, in a ball of rusted disintigrating iron were three spheres the size of peaches, but pulled like taffy slowly returning their spherical shape. This was PRISTINE MATTER (tier 6 material) ... but what could be done with it, and what was it doing in some capsule below the ground?<br>
The followers of the Argead felt they were being observed.... or more to the point something was TRYING to observe them... they moved away from the area quickly, As unbeknownst to them THE SEG drooled at their passing, then scrabbled through the scree to an approaching human...</div>

The Ciun create commerce with currency. This will be worth bonus culture points in the next generation, and the hope of dealings shifts relations between peoples from what can be taken to what can be bought. <b>(Civility in the cresh increases) </b>though strange tendrils of thought began to invade the wisest and most skilled of the Ciun... something was wrong... mightily wrong... new people had been appearing in smaller numbers in the cresh and psychic turbulence was palpable beyond the waterline.

With the "First Faith" declared, a militant energy fell over the people of the Nihtur Bloodline. Just like everything else... peace was hopeless, and they would need to be prepared to face the hostilities of that which was to come. The Nihtur shuffled about normally in a manner comfortable -- but when the time came to fight the roots and the parasites gave them great strength and agility. The symbiosis with the plants of this dark world deepend, and the creepers and taproots of the vile jestertrees seemed to burrow underground wherever significant numbers of the Nihtur walked... <b>(Nihtur gain "Sulthis Support" -- in the strictest sense this is familiar plants aiding them in offense and defense when in groups of 20 or more)</b><br>

Gold is new, a popular in the quarry -- as such they quickly acquire all that which they need: passable tools, weapons and armor, surplus food, and pure water. Where there were shortages, there was now fulfillment, where there was need, there was now use. Control of Gold shifted as it exchanged and changed hands, but the Singers were still the true Goldmavins... if this would continue into the future remained a question...<br>
The Singers were also able to get new heights in obedience and training from the dog-like creatures of the quarry. They obtained their own specimens from among the most willful, and made them into smart and faithful pets. <b>Singers Gain "Festrog Faithful."</b><br>

Likewise the Troupe had done well in their initial trading with the community of the quarry and lesser extent glasswall, sharing tales of doom and labor both find and burly for exchange in the weapons, armor, clothing and tools they needed. Needs were met and shortages cured and the travelling larder was filled. It was indeed also with some great interest that the Troupe was met, their strange ways and fearful message inspiring some of the most recent arrivals to the Cresh to join them.<br>
<b>Troup gains 5 population, 1 unit of gold, 2 units of obsidian, and a unit of quartz.</b></div>

MINDFORCE BLOOD,<br>
<br>
Mindforce Powers: uses psychic stress to disrupt an enemy's concentration and battle prowess, and some say with practice read minds. Bloods with mindforce grant bonuses to themselves and/or allies in contests/combat, and more easily give the opposite to rivals. It is said there are other talents this ancestry can bring in the darkness such as sensing the unseen, but such powers are developed over generations in a bloodline...<br>

<br>
A pale albino woman, with a FOCUSED and CONTEMPLATIVE personality (perks), BLUNT to a fault in conversation (quirk). Wears threadbare clothes, carries a lit lantern, mindspike wand (double damage using offensive magic), and sharp rock.<br>
<br>
Knows 'mindblast' spell.<br>
<br>
Followed by forty lantern bearers, renewables of ink, insects, and (purest) water, one unit of oil, twenty units of Bisontaur meat, four units of brass.<br>

Additional community renewables of green herb, red herb, human bone, quartz, and stone in the quarry camp. Stepwell use is public.<br>

Eostre ran a finger and thumb over the individual beads of the pearl necklace draped around her neck, rotating it's length entire for good luck before concealing the jewelry under her clothes and rising from bed to watch the Ciun painstakingly copying the contents of the clay tablets, all destined for shattering by her hand, onto the blank pages of books that will usurp them once she had read through the works one last time. The collection of knowledge that once took up all the shelves of the Quarry library will become a much lighter, and more compact, burden to bear when the Cresh is abandoned.<br>
<br>
She envied her people. Were she only... Born rather than awakened, raised instead of surviving, and taught what she discovered... There would be more to the rest of her life than reaching for a bright light at the end of a narrowing hall. Generations will come after her, and they will have what the witch that bore them was denied.</div>

Zahra Epimoni<br>
<i>Mistress of the Pit</i><br>
<br>
≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡ ≡≡≡≡≡<br>
<br>
The darkness of the cresh was lit by an orange glow. It was not the vaunted lighthouse of the Quarry, it was not the fabled 'sun' from memories long forgotten, it was not the lights of a monster in the sky, no, it was something more mundane and yet far more awful. It was a consuming fire that licked and tore its way through the slave quarters, that consumed warehouse after warehouse. The fire consumed the innocent and wicked alike as screams filled the air, the smell of burning flesh wafted its way through Glasswall, the scent spreading to every nook and cranny. It was the fire of a misguided faith and its foolish followers. It was the fire of slaves that burned their own, driven by those who cared not for them. Zahra stood upon the outskirts of the bamboo pavilion and <i>watched</i>.<br>
<br>
She could have given the order, tried to save them, tried to protect more of Glasswall, but she didn't. As her dark, swollen eyes watched the spread of fire, watched as people screamed and flailed, their bodies alight, their fat bubbling and streaming down the sides of their charred flesh, Zahra smiled [Cruel]. Her thin, broken lips pulling back over her teeth, the orange glow of the fire reflected off her face giving her a particular demonic visage. The slaves of Glasswall had been an issue. An issue she had inherited from her mother, Zahra had intended to slowly phase them out. Releasing a system where they could climb to freedom and from there they could climb to becoming true Epimoni. By slowing down the rate of those that became slaves and slowly lowering the standards to freedom, she had hoped to remove slaves and incorporate them into the Epimoni by the next generation [Smart]... However, this worked as well [Cruel]. In some ways, it worked better. If the slaves had managed to become Epimoni, they would have brought their misbegotten belief of the 'Inner Light' with them. A cancer that would have eaten away at the strength of the Tyrant Throne, but now? Now they <i>burned</i>. Now the Epimoni were reminded of the treachery of the 'False Messiah'. In the past, his followers had attempted to usurp the throne, and now they attempted to do so again. It would become clear to all of Glasswall that the 'Inner Light' and its False Messiah can never be trusted [Smart]. An inelegant solution, but Zahra could not deny its effectiveness. Perhaps this is what Amaraa of the Quarry found so enjoyable about fire? How it seemed to purify and cleanse [Cruel].<br>
<br>
Zahra strained her ears as she tried to listen. Past the flicking flames, past the screams, to the sobs. The begging. The pleading. For salvation. For their False Messiah. For the Inner Light. And their reward? Pain, silence and death [Cruel]. The poor fools, they thought they were fighting for something, for someone, but they weren't. They never had been. They were pawns in a larger game, puppets of those who could not care less about any of them [Smart]. There would be no aid, no salvation, and the best part, the one who had burned them, was their own. This fire was started not by the Epimoni, but by slaves so desperate to save their own skins, they were willing to kill every man, woman and child they called 'family'. The very people they claimed to fight for, now lay burning by their very hands. And the people who started the fire? Cut down in the Cresh, alone, terrified, in the dark, left with nothing but sorrow and regret. A fitting end for traitors [Cruel].<br>
<br>
Who were the puppeteers though? Zahra had no doubt the 'False Messiah' and his pets were behind it. They had spread their faith to the slaves, and it was his name that was on their lips when they died. From the reports, it seemed some of the slaves also used slingstaffs, and from her memory of the battle with the Grimmory, the only people that used that was the Messiah and his people [Smart]. It was odd as those were the only weapons that weren't scavenged obsidian shanks and spears [Smart]. A primitive weapon for a primitive, worthless belief. Their armor had eluded Zahra for some time. Why had they had such well crafted armor, even if it was such a basic material, if they were also using such impoverished weaponry? But the speeches at the election, where the rats were so quick to throw the others to the Rex, had revealed much. Deep down, Zahra now believed that both Amaraa of the Xygaras and the followers of Agread were likely both supplying and encouraging the slaves, but perhaps were unaware that the other was doing the same [Smart]. The Agread had given them slingstaffs and were likely looking for other means of acquiring more weaponry for them while Amaraa supplied them with armor [Smart]. It would explain why Amaraa had given such outrageous and foolish offers when she attempted to bid for the Black Queen's support. She had believed that the slave uprising would be more devastating then it was, that it would be a roaring inferno instead of a whimpering flicker. She offered cooperation with one hand and in the other held a dagger. For all their misbegotten words on 'Hope', it seemed they truly believed in something more pragmatic. It was sad, and amusing, that Yaas of the Vivaldi clan seemed to be the only one to truly believe in Hope [Smart, Cruel], she almost pitted the Forgelord, to believe in a lie like the rest, but their religion of Hope was far more useful to her then the Inner Light.<br>
<br>
Yes, it was likely both parties were involved in the slave rebellion, but Zahra had no plans on punishing either. The Agread had punished themselves, lost their foothold in her kingdom and now they would be more resilient to their nonsensical beliefs in the future, and Amaraa.. Well, she was protected by the fact the usefulness of Yaas outweighed the annoyance Zahra felt towards the woman, and their misbegotten belief would prove useful in fighting the machinations of the False Messiah in the future [Smart]. Her eyes drifted to the horizon, towards the Quarry, the lighthouse visible even over the orange glow. The election had been amusing. In truth, in did not matter to Zahra all that much who won it. She would have come out ahead regardless, but Yaas winning did give the most direct benefit. Soon she would accomplish yet another thing her mother could not. Soon she would further cement herself as her better. Soon her mother would be little more then a forgotten memory, a woman who was surpassed by the child she could never bring herself to love [Cruel/Insecure].<br>

<b>Build Expedition Supplies on mass (Labor support from Azon [Croc])</b><br>
For future expeditions beyond the Cresh, a large stockpile will be created and maintained. Standard things like woven baskets and back baskets, leathers, wagons, bamboo water containers, preserved food, spider cages, medical wraps, tools and the like will be stored. However, some special things will also be created to make life on a caravan a bit easier such as bamboo/fiber fittings that can be used with leather and/or silk to quickly set up tents and awnings along with bundles of tied bamboo and bamboo/fiber fittings that can be used to quickly create mantlets that can be used as quick fortifications for camps.  Zahra aims to create not just enough for the Epimoni, but hopefully enough to supply the Seia and Marion clans too.</span>​</div></div>

<i>The Troupe Master<br>
Herald of Exodus</i><br>
<br>
<span data-s9e-mediaembed="youtube"><span><span style="background:url(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/wZdZKolMIl0/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% / cover" data-s9e-mediaembed-iframe="[&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;,&quot;&quot;,&quot;scrolling&quot;,&quot;no&quot;,&quot;style&quot;,&quot;background:url(https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/wZdZKolMIl0\/hqdefault.jpg) 50% 50% \/ cover&quot;,&quot;src&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wZdZKolMIl0&quot;]"></span></span></span><br>
<br>
Azon sat in the trade camp the Troupe had built around their stage where day and night they continued to spread the words of doom to any who would listen. His amber glasses focused on working silk thread into clothing. He had not expected such demand for the skills of sewing but it was to the profit of his people. His followers had gained members and there was trade. They were building up their stockpiles even as they spent much of the items they were bringing in. His own people would soon have fine silk clothing even as there was work to make cloth for others in both Quarry and Glasswall. He frowns and pauses in his sewing, giving his fingers a break as he sighs and runs his hand along his bald head. Only recently had the entire Troupe shaved their heads bald again in ritual to gather the hair for stuffing and use in their dolls. Hair was a resource like anything else these days and Azon was a clever man when it came to solving problems.<br>
<br>
Quarry had been a curious people to engage with, only now though he had heard of terrible bloodletting going on. The peoples inside had set upon one another and he had felt tempted to take a side with the Singers... but the leader of the Quarry had traded fairly and at least listened to the message of doom. The Troupe had taken to calling the coming horror something more visceral, to give it form to the people of the Cresh. So now they called it the Hunger. It seemed though that even before this insanity within the Cresh, they would have wasted lives in some crazed assault upon another rogue band in the Cresh. Instead, fighting  had come to them internally and the Troupe had to stay above it all. He needed tools promised to him by those in the Quarry to arm and equip his people for the Exodus. All that mattered was the warning of the Hunger and their preparations to depart these lands before the turning of a lifetime. Before the Hunger came for them all.<br>
<br>
Glasswall had been amusing and curious with its singular Queen. She had listened to the message of the Hunger and taken it seriously if not fully believing it. Azon was happy to see that at least but pitied those who would likely remain behind in foolishness. The vassals of Glasswall had been good trade partners, providing much needed materials as well to the Troupe for services and goods they had traded for elsewhere. Azon had elected to be wise and warn the Queen of her cursed mark, prepared even to aid in its removal to forge friendship with that grim woman for the sake of their peoples. Obsidian flowed as did meat which even now fed them while the rest was being preserved for the coming of the Exodus both the refine the practice and have something ready.<br>
<br>
Warning was given to more nomadic peoples as well that had come to trade or speak. Azon hoped they would listen and depart when the Troupe did but there was little more to do than treat them like the others. Trade and warning. They had allowed a shaman amongst them when he came to visit as he seemed not to be an issue. Azon though warned his people of the dangers of letting a local belief taking roon amongst them. The Quarry was a bloody display of what it could cause and he had used it thusly. The shaman was treated kindly and respected, even employed in his services, yet now there was caution in taking to heart any local teachings. If their message of the Hunger was listened to politely, though would do the same for the Shaman's words or any others.<br>
<br>
<i>Perhaps I was too ambitious in warning them all, but I had to try. My people must be known as honest traders and speakers of truth. I cannot afford to be seen as a liar when the time of Exodus continues to come closer. Even now I'm sacrificing so much to ensure our own needs are better. Dolls traded I would never have parted with before, even as I make far superior ones to fill the gap. I cannot even help those who have helped me... for all are trading fairly and I cannot afford to pick a local side. My side is the Troupe.  These people are just other souls who I am giving the chance to save themselves... If they can't be bothered to listen? They can die to the Hunger.</i><br>
<br>
Azon ran his hand along his bald head again and got up to go check on the assembly of the new dolls. He would have to handle that as priority while their labor dolls were prepared over time and clothing pulled together. Exodus was coming and the Troupe would be ready. With that thought, Azon grabs his sewing kit to get to work even as he gathers several of his closest followers to teach them and give orders to make preparations for a final kindness to the Cresh.<br>

Spora was tired from her trek across the barren black lands of the Cresh, her weathered body drained of energy as new life ripened inside her. Her travels, however, had bore much fruit. One such boon, being her current minder, Rockblade.<br>
<br>
Seemingly set in his ways by the massive blade of stone he carried with him, the vicious Vivaldi had forgone the recent developments made by his egotistical clansmen and their forge. Championing the old ways, Rockblade crafted his tools with rigorous hammering and great stamina, making him an exceptional physical specimen. Though his original motivation was irrelevant to Spora, be it retribution or belief, it didn't matter now. With the JesterTrees already having plans for him, RockBlade was now to be one of many new initiates.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)">With their lamentable leaders lost in their pointless plans of self indulgence, Spora had merely approached the Quarry's populace with the truth. A truth the people had quite easily accepted, without their Leaders interference.</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(163, 143, 132)"><br>
And so the First Faith would gradually grow in this dark world, like the true masters of this world did, it's new followers soon to embrace their subservience to the plants of the Penumbra and the gifts it did bestow.</span><br>
<br>
Spora could feel her bonds with the JesterTrees strengthening and deepening, the flora festering inside her calling out to it's brethren, declaring each man, woman and child of the Nihtur who carried them within as one of it's own. The First Faith and its followers were steadily achieving true symbiosis with the JesterTrees.<br>
<br>

A spark in the dark. Tendrils of darkness carries the spark down. The Jag, a middle of many others, cut by a giant claw. Two crags and ravine. Within that rocky, root filled ravine the spark landed in a human silhouette. Not of a woman, but of a man. Darkness began to fill with the light making a clear grey. Purple energy flooded the area, towering until it faded leaving a brownish, blackish haired youth breathed in its place. Seemingly human. Each hair, each pore, each freckle; all aligned and prepared to specifications. A human body? Who would know? And the youth cared not. Coughing ensured with blood and mucus being expelled from the body. Though, none of it necessary and thus of no concern. Heavy breath after heavy breath, the young man flopped down on his back, wagging his fingers and toes. His eyes focused out in the pitch black darkness. He remembered the danger, and sprang to his feet. Yet while many would use their dexterity, the young man dissolved into smoke and saw the dark as light, scanning the landscape. Nothing nearby. Safety for now. Though, that would likely change. When, is the million dollar question. But, no one waits this long. And the young man in his nudity became increasingly comfortable in the dark, in being able to see nothing.<br>
<br>
Step, step, step; the stone firmly cck'd against his feet. He stretched his arms as a raiment of shadows slipped down. Shadows danced around him as the shirt skittered across his chest, merging at the middle with the smell of jasmine meeting the nose. At his feet, darkness gripped his ankles and hunched up his legs like a caterpillar, forming trousers akin to Jeans. A wave rushed over his back, forming into a collared coat. Woven like it was made of wool, but its misty nature, as with the other garments, indicates its true nature as a figment of darkness grafted to skin and flesh. He held his body in a pose, as if to show its beauty. But, none could see, including himself. But, the mind's eye is quite capable, even now. A grin full of teeth formed in his face. A tear formed in his right eye as he held them closed... A breath, a sigh, then to breath again. Clenched fists, sudden turns of the head, and a soft "Agread" left the lips. Then, more thoughts began to flood until he felt an important decision his mother made. Archon. A strange concept. How did she know? That didn't matter. She was the mentally... flexible one. He was sure she found out one way or another. Maybe the black hand offered the idea? He wasn't sure, but he felt something missing. The hand lacked conviction to the vision. And he shivered in disappointment. But, the hand knew. And maybe that was the plan, to prove his worthiness, to prove his faith in the vision? The young man scantly knew the answers to these questions. All he knew, he was not whole on that side. And he felt its presence nearby, in a group of lantern bearers.<br>
<br>
Supposedly, the lanterns provided for the survival of humanity. Our youth wasn't particularly interested in that. It would not take a wise guy to see that his affinity with the darkness would lead to such a position. But, people are stupid. Oh, everyone knew that, at least once someone said something stupid. But, that matters not. Jozef knew better than to stay alone. There was no reason to do so. Wasn't that a good quality of humanity? Being able work together and overcoming the odds together? Oh the smiles formed in this moment. Chasing the lights, Jozef became one with smoke, climbing out of the ravine and approaching the lights he saw. His chosen few and his other part awaited them. Well, the chosen few for now.<br>

Jozef formed from smoke inside the dark bubble as another exited. A blonde haired youth, of a thicker build and brown eyes. Stumbling and waving his arms beside Jozef, Jozef caught the youth's back. With a pat and smile, Jozef ignited a light with his powers so that they could see. The air was still and smelled of earth. A small trickle of water could be faintly heard from the surface, rain? Or imagination? The scene faded to black despite it all as Jozef's purple eyes focused on the blonde haired face beside him. He took a deep breath letting his chest rise and fall. A strange feeling, a tightness in the chest. But, tense felt alien now. Moments forgoing their terse sensations for more detailed ones. The feeling of hair on his skin, warmth, and the simple sigh of relief filled Jozef's mind as he silently watched in a still. <br>
<br>
"Are you okay?" A silky voice with vibrations of chocolate with a tint of static from a television. An echo called back as well. Not from the stone walls, but from the voice itself. Listening deeper: the plucking of arrows, the strums of a lute, the washes of waves on sand, a laugh, and more infinitely changing with the flections of Jozef's voice. There was hesitation in his voice, as he looked to have lost air. Gasping with not a fear or panic in his eyes. He placed his hand on the blonde's shoulder, "Lukas?"<br>
<br>
A cough, a tremble across the body and a deep, heavy lean across Jozef's shoulders, "Yeah. Feel..."<br>
<br>
"Weak?"<br>
<br>
"A little. Did something stupid."<br>
<br>
"On brand so far." Jozef snickered.<br>
<br>
"Yea, yea, I know... Thanks." Lukas laid his head back. "Where you come from anyway?" <br>
<br>
"I..."<br>
<br>
Lukas sat up, "It doesn't matter. You told me you keep me safe, and looks like you did with the others. And this place is pretty cool. You living in here?"<br>
<br>
Jozef whispered, "Yeah."<br>
<br>
Lukas smirked, scooting over to the wall of the bubble. Jozef sat beside, looking out into the black. Thinking Lukas would panic, the Black Shepard wrapped his arm around his shoulders only to be dragged into an embrace and a strong smooch on the cheek. While the ensuing blushing would be invisible to both parties, Lukas was a person, not people. And thus, he was not an idiot. Lukas, with his tired arms, laid Jozef on top of him, letting the stone of the bubble support him and keep him upright. Jozef's dark raiments receded, leaving skin to skin. Warmth to warmth, blonde to brown, and honesty to honesty. Jozef's legs wrapped around, letting a deep embrace and beating hearts fill the space between.<br>
<br>
A cold chill and Jozef fell out. A sudden realization, a flash of his mother's memories. An ooze of darkness flooded from Jozef's skin. A sense of rage, mystique, of intrigue flooded over Jozef, but two arms wrapped around his neck and yanked him down. A nuzzle of checks and foreheads heralded the converge of lips.<br>
<br>
"Happy birthday my Shepard."<br>
<br>
Jozef paused, "Love is a strange thing, when it spooks you with a glance."<br>
<br>
Lukas raked through Jozef's hair as one head rested on forearms, the other on chest. Open eyes lulled into closed ones, breaths slowed, and muscles relaxed.<br>
<br>
Yet, in the background, swirling shadows plucked and flew in the air. Even in sleep, the shadow relentless, restless. Rings of sinking ships echoed the bubble; no water, no ship. Only what could be calls with no response. Investigations and probes into the sounds of the bubble as others took their rest. The light had its time. Now the shadow would start to enact its machinations, hopefully with the light's honeyed words and purpose.<br></li><li class="bbTabContent" id="tab_1736445254" style="display: none;"><br>

These items begin at 2 tiers higher than those of others. Other items can be made, though temporary. larger items, more complex items, and higher quality items. (2) So let's say something as high/long as 4-6 feet, few/no moving parts, not of shoddy or inferior quality.
