The world is a large place. Filled with fantastical sights, ferocious beasts, and magical monsters abound. The sun sets, the moon rise, and humans work to build up their homes in the world. You are one of these tribes that have begun to settled down and become more than just nomadic tribes. You have laid claim to farmland and herds of animals, but so too have the fire breathing monsters and other tribes of humans. Will you rise to a glorious future or fall to ruin?
Nation Name:

Culture:
Capital position:
Pop: 10,000
Pop growth: +1% (per turn)
Money: 100 (for trading with other nations)
Military units:
Happiness: 0 (-10 is enraged, 0 is contempt, 10 is ecstatic)
Tech: Agriculture, Animal husbandry, Irrigation, Wheels
Magic: (The arrays/spells you know. Researching magic is dangerous and you need to get a tech to start researching, and need to find a Nexus before you start researching that. You do not start with magic.)
There is no limit of the number of actions you can take but for every action taken, the dice roll needed for success is increased by 10
for example, if I rolled 1d100, I'd need a 10 or higher to succeed
if I rolled 3d100, each roll would need to be 30 or higher for all of them to succeed
The only exception to this rule is battles in which a roll for a battle only increases the success roll by 2 instead of 10
each turn represents 5 years
Your capital is the start of your nation and is represented by a dot. When settling a capital, you must do so on a river. A city may be settled anywhere in your land using an action and they are represented by black dots. You may move your capital to another, already established city at any time but it takes an action. If your capital is taken during war and you don't have another, already established city, your nation will fall.
Fighting an offensive war in rain-forest, forest, swamp, or across a river gives you a -10 to rolls.
NPC nations are a thing and can be determined from players due to their stripes.

Your people dig down into the earth and find only water and dirt. The Prophet thinks it might be easier in the rocky terrain of the mountains.
The bowmen are trained rapidly and while they seem like they would be quite good at killing enemies at a distance it is found that the copper from the river is not enough to supply them all with copper tipped arrows and spears.

With the purpose of defense in mind people begin to work on finding better ways to protect themselves. Some begin to wear extra layers of furs and hide. It works, but is uncomfortable and hard to move in. Others use a piece of wood with a handle that allows them to block incoming strikes. Harder to use but easier to walk with. +Tech: Hide Armor, Shields

Your explorers report back nothing unusual or different from what has been seen around the city and villages. To the west they do see more plains and spotted a large grey-red beast with two horns of fire along it's snout. A scout also brings back a greenish chunk of rock that he says was being washed down the river.
When this architect speaks of building with stone he is laughed at by most everyone. There is not enough stone anywhere to build with it, especially when it is needed for tools. People write off the idea as stupid and go back to business. (Can not research anything dealing with stone for 3 turns)

The crystal dust is put into circles chipped into the stone and put into place with hides. The first attempt just saw everything get blasted with wind. The second attempt, after changing the circle a bit, got a blast of air in a line when the hoe hit the ground. Not every useful for farming. + Magic: Wind blast: Wind push
People find that some of the soil near the river can be hardened with fire. Many use this to begin storing food instead of leaving it in a pile for vermin to get into. +Tech: Pottery

There are reports of people panicking and a ball of darkness coming into the city. It seems it was the scouts with a pile of crystals and feathers from a black bird. They say that the bird was able to teleport while in the darkness and there were many other beasts but they never left the darkness. Plants brought out also died quickly. When the crystals produce darkness again the feathers are found around the room in the dark corners and under objects. When the crystals are crushed they still create the area of darkness. +Tech: Basic magic theory, Basic Monster Theory
By running away from one of the massive creatures into an ambush with a heavy rock in a tree one is killed with a lucky shot to the head. This creature is big enough to eat a child whole and has a thick, scaly hide. The maw also drips with what smells like venom. It seems the creatures hunt some of the big marsupials and birds in the area.
The hunters also observe a creature just as big and flying take down an emu and fly away with it in it's mouth. It looks similar to the large lizard but with leathery wings.
>>40654
Your people try to use spears but they keep missing the fish, the water seemingly distorting the strike. They resort to using sticks split into two points and it works. Not so much for crabs with their shells. +Tech: Fishing spears
The people begin to search the island for something better than stone. The shells don't seem to do it, and neither does the coral from the ocean. One man does bring some blue crystals from the south that are cold to the touch but they are not as good as stone, and the pile brought froze nearby water. +Tech: Very Basic Magic Theory

Over the years the wife of the Lightlord works with the light dust and crystals to create ritual circles. The simplest is one that creates a bright flash of light. Expanding on it an array to create a bright flash high above. Most interesting is one that allows someone to create a small ball of light in a specific spot.
+Tech: Architecture Arrays
+Magic: Flash, Flare, Magelamp
While the Lightlord is indeed blessed and has many children it is gossiped in the women's circles that there is one place the Lightlord is not so blessed.
To store knowledge on what these arrays do many of the holy men, and the wife of the Lightlord, begin to use more abstract symbols to describe them and carve them into the stone of buildings. +Tech: (Insert Name) Alphabet
After the discovery of boiling fat and ash, that poor woman was not the best cook, it was immediately put to use to clean the alters. After seeing it actually worked many began to use it to wash themselves to look clean before the light when praying. +0.5% pop growth.

3. Mathematics
Writing provided the Serendians with a superior method of retaining information and allowed for education to flourish. Some have decided to take it one step further, attempting to improve the methods of record keeping crops and family sizes through numbers and symbols.

Culture: The Valnones, or "Forest-Folk," are an amalgamation of several hundred disparate tribes united by a similar culture and guttural mother tongue. The byproduct of centuries of on and off warfare between the peoples of the southern continent, the Valnones are a taciturn and unforgiving people with a distinct warrior culture. They do not fight for 'honor' or 'respect' but to kill, and do not cease until all of the offenders are dead or they are. The Valnones derive much of their food from setting fire to their forests and cultivating the resulting swaths of bare land for grains or massive herds of deer or elk or rabbit colonies. They have a tradition of using hallucinogenic mushrooms as battle-stimulants and as a means of communing with nature and their gods. For long they have remained mostly content to linger in their forest, but now they have begun to stir in light of a wretched plague killing their precious deer. Soon they must expand elsewhere to feed their people, and if the land is already occupied… woe to those that do not submit to the Valnones.

Nation Name: Serendia
Color: Bronze
Culture: Serendians are a small people valuing individual freedom and strong group bonds. Farms are usually community owned, with every person also having a smaller plot for themselves. Their crowning achievement has been the formation of a basic democracy. Their people worship the anthropomorphic form of the Five Elements. The most important is Life, represented by an androgynous child. In some households it is a girl child, while in others it is a boy child. This represents Serendians love and worship of children and their importance in society.
Capital position:
Pop: 10,246
Pop growth: +1.5% (per turn)
Money: 100 (for trading with other nations)
Military units:
Happiness: 2 (-10 is enraged, 0 is contempt, 10 is ecstatic)
Tech: Agriculture, Animal husbandry, Irrigation, Wheels, Canoes, Basic Medicine, Very Basic Architecture, Serendian Alphabet, Very Basic Education, War Spears, Very Basic Metallurgy, Very Basic Math, Very Basic Bureaucracy
Magic:
The development of writing and mathematics, along with a burgeoning population and plentiful resources, has led to a change in the very structure of Serendia. Where before oral traditions necessitated Speakers to record the history of the people there now existed clay tablets. The bureaucrats had stepped into the spotlight, using mathematics and writing to administer from the city of Voss'Verela. In turn, these bureaucrats shape the democratic foundations of Serendia. Where before every family had a voice in the direction of the People, now it is the Bureaucrats who control ever increasing amounts of the People's works. For the first time, a standing force of soldiers could be levied from the fyrds of Serendia. Goods and services could move from one fyrd to another unmolested, with a semi-uniform since of worth. As the scattered collection of towns and villages began to coalese into a proper city-state the role and power of Democracy began to wane in favor of an Oligarchy of bureaucrats.
1. Send scouts to find more metals or metal deposits.
It was mostly the city-dwellers who benefited from the discovery of copper. The villages had little use for trinkets of that kind, and they had no real methods to get it. There was a demand for the metal mostly as a commodity to show off as jewelry or other display, but some intended to use it for spearheads. In either case scouts were dispatched to find more copper and other metals.
2. Raise Spearmen
+Very Basic Bureaucracy
+War Spears
Serendia had never had an army so there was little to base it off of. As a result, the soldiers were chosen by village vote and their officers were likewise voted in by the soldiers. The bureaucrats approved by omission as they too had no idea what they were really doing. Voted into the office of Captain was Parim Stamel, a village councilman from the village Porik.
3. Hygiene
More people in the city ultimately meant more issues with health. Thankfully the Serendians had developed a strong cache of medicinal knowledge, and that would aid them in mitigating the issues of disease.

Serendians, no longer being purely agrarian, find there is a need to replace the barter system that breaks down so easily outside of the scattered villages that make up their territory.
2. Expand toward the lake
Some Serendians, fearing the ever growing hand of the Paethu, flee north to be closer to the lake - inadvertently expanding the borders of Serendia.
3. Land Survey
The Paethu, or Bureaucrats, send scholars and soldiers into every village and every town to count the people, map the land, and take samples of local plants, foodstuff, and rocks, back to Voss'Verella for study and cataloguing. It is believed that this sort of thoroughness will allow for better economic and political control over Serendia.

Only problem is the dust of the crystal is blown away easily, especially when magic is about to be done, and there are so many ideas of what to do to fix it that no work is getting done. You may need to point them in a direction or choose one.

Color: Dark Purple
Culture: The Valnones, or "Forest-Folk," are an amalgamation of several hundred disparate tribes united by a similar culture and guttural mother tongue. The byproduct of centuries of on and off warfare between the peoples of the southern continent, the Valnones are a taciturn and unforgiving people with a distinct warrior culture. They do not fight for 'honor' or 'respect' but to kill, and do not cease until all of the offenders are dead or they are. The Valnones derive much of their food from setting fire to their forests and cultivating the resulting swaths of bare land for grains or massive herds of deer or elk or rabbit colonies. They have a tradition of using hallucinogenic mushrooms as battle-stimulants and as a means of communing with nature and their gods. For long they have remained mostly content to linger in their forest, but now they have begun to stir in light of a wretched plague killing their precious deer. Soon they must expand elsewhere to feed their people, and if the land is already occupied… woe to those that do not submit to the Valnones.

1. A blessed spot, granted to us by our lord Prosperion! We must study this place further, taking care not to disturb the stone beasts.
2. Yet still we must push forward towards the promised mountains. It is our destiny!
3. The Prophet has a number of ideas…something about basic mechanisms…the wheel and axle, the lever, the pulley, the inclined plane, the wedge and the screw. Not everyone is sure of what to make of this, but perhaps with a little demonstration and experimentation of our own we might be able to figure it out.

I got a 96 on my expansion last turn. Reminder to edit the map.
Nation Name: Serendia
Color: Bronze
Culture: Serendians are a small people valuing individual freedom and strong group bonds. Farms are usually community owned, with every person also having a smaller plot for themselves. Their crowning achievement has been the formation of a basic democracy. Their people worship the anthropomorphic form of the Five Elements. The most important is Life, represented by an androgynous child. In some households it is a girl child, while in others it is a boy child. This represents Serendians love and worship of children and their importance in society.
Capital position:
Pop: 11,590
Pop growth: +6.5% (per turn)
Money: 100 (for trading with other nations)
Military units: 100 Spearmen (+1/100)

Tech: Agriculture, Animal husbandry, Irrigation, Wheels, Canoes, Intermediate Medicine, Very Basic Architecture, Serendian Alphabet, Very Basic Education, War Spears, Very Basic Metallurgy, Very Basic Math, Very Basic Bureaucracy
Magic:
1. The settlers begin the construction of a new town to support the local farming villages nearby. In many ways the expansion and now the town represent a new age for Serendia. They are its first steps out into the wider world.
2. Search mountains for metals
Copper was found here, washed downstream by summer rains. Perhaps other metals can be found in the mountains?
3. Copper Tools
The individuals closest to Voss'Verela benefit from the exploitation of copper. While mostly used for weapons or ostentatious display, some desire to use the metal for tools.

Though the peoples of Alara dream of a day where they may return while still full of life and living with their Mother for all time.

action 1. The crystals resonate with certain designs, but every time we try to do something with it the dust they create is blown away, we must devise a way to contain the dust in place. Perhaps some form of Resin shall allow our ritual circles to remain as they are being used.
