So... Once Monday for the three Elemental acts and then Friday when we earn our third act (Mon, Wed, and Fri).

Yep I've expressed what I want to do. So what do you want to do?

Re: OOC

Oh, I'd like to help magic and reality exist.  Probably spout some philosophical observations and define things further before making things.  Otherwise there will be no control, no laws, and no chaos.  The question I ask myself is do I need to create a work space to experiment or can I just define it?  What will the wrath of Ao be?

Help however you wish but at least tell me first so I don't screw with your plan.

I think we only get 3 Elemental ACTs per Aeon (not per week), so we can only do up to one VOID ACT per Aeon.

On Mon, Wed and Fri we get a regular ACT, for a total of three ACTs each week.

Re: OOC

quote:
. First, all elements and concepts mentioned in the image exist. Additionally, each god will be associated to three elements. This means that some elements may be shared and some may not be represented. No god may chose the Void element. Each Aeon each god will be given three bonus ACTs from their elements, on from each element there are associated to. Thus a god of Fire, Air, and Metal would have a bonus FIRE ACT< AIR ACT< and METAL ACT. They may use these element ACTs anytime during the AEON but ACTs made with ELEMENT ACTs must use the terms associated with that element. Thus, a god with the fire ELEMENT who choses to use their FIRE ACT must create earth, melt metal, or disrupt air as part of the ACT. Alternatively, a god may expend all three of the ELEMENT ACTs at once to perform a VOID ACT. Only a VOID ACT may create sentience. This does not mean that sentient life might not arise if left to AO's whim or time, but attempts to create sentience outside of a VOID ACT will result in WRATH. But, AO encourage you to be creative and find ways to encourage sentience to arise rather than it being directly created.


This is the relevant info. So yes one void act.

There are 2 types of void acts you can do one that refers to the void element itself and creating it in some way which is what I'm doing.

The second things specifically listed as void acts which would be sentient life.

So unless your doing either your fine.

Could shadow or darkness be an element, or light for that matter?

For the magic system I'm creating? Yes I have done some changes to the theoretical list but they weren't removed.

Air+Earth is darkness
Air+metal is light.

I don't particularily like the Admixture solution you have come up with but it will work up to a point.  It lacks anyway to control the amount of processes.

Re: OOC

Oh definitely which is why it's the cheapest solution most accurately.

I create the plane of the elements
I alter the location
Then I create the secondary elements
So on and so forth.

Re: OOC

You have the option of one VOID ACT per AEON. Only your ELEMENTAL ACTs can be burned to create a VOID ACT. You only get three ELEMENTAL ACTs per AEON.

Just clarifying this for the person above.

No.

I don't mean to be a stick in the mud, but you'll have 48 hours once the game goes live for first ACT. And up to a week if you are busy and save up ACTs.

No I mean literally posting it in the ooc. I have the action which I wrote. I post it here ask some questions I'm uncertain about then post it in the world.

Re: OOC

The key reason why I wouldn't just ask the questions is because, I may miss something that would be normally obvious to others. Since I don't know to pay attention to it I can't call it out until the post is made.

Re: OOC

"There was nothing... No that's not quite right." Floradon chided himself. "Only the gods, the basest of elements, and Ao existed in the beginning of time." Floradon did not know what if anything came before, however he knew many great things would come to be with him in the picture.

Floradon knew the other gods would do things for the basis of the world for the first sentients to live. He himself felt there was a different purpose for him in this time before the records of man.

Floradon had already resolved himself in this endless void to create the beginnings of a magical plane which with mortals could do not even a fraction of what the likes of himself could do. They would need to learn to use it like any resource, but first they needed to be alive to know about it in the first place.

With his left hand he conjured the magical elements a tumultuous and endless amount of the 6 elements tinged with magic with which the world was based on. With his right he tore open a hole in space into a sub reality, and with a solid breath he plunged the elements into the subreality where they would fight and contest each other doing what they were known to do with the basest of settings. The Elements could not escape by themselves for the simple reason they could not cross interdimensional distances. Just as the elements could not go to the void, these elements could not enter the main universe or any other dimension or realm.

With a sigh he leaned back, Floradon knew he would be here for a while. After all there were still several steps he needed to do. Thus he spoke once more. "In this endless nothingness came Floradon's first act as the god of magic he brought into being the magical plane. The plane was in a state of perpetual chaos, yet to be fully formed. "

Floradon Created The Realm of The Elements.


Question do I need to establish some additional reason why the elements would be able to persist throughout the life of the universe in this act?
Anything else I'm missing?
Writing advice?


Reason for deletion and advice for the future. Be double sure before writing a post and don't let your mind go for the rule of cool when it will additional details that will compromise the veracity of the action.

Floradon,

You may need to divide this into one action for the creation of the plane and summoning the elements.  I know you don't want to as you would need help summoning three of the  elements. I am willing to help once I finish my own project or get prempted by another God.

Re: OOC

Ao:
So, it is probably possible to create a separate plane then populate it with the six elements. As Two ACTs: CREATE the Plane of Elements then ALTER elements to inhabit it physically instead of as concepts. As part of populating it, you could define where each element exists in the plane as part of the description. After that, separate ACTs to define each admixture. That's the simplest way I could see to do it. It'd take most of your First AEON to get it done. I'd figure about ten ACTs or so per AEON. Now, that just makes the plane exist and certain new secondary elements. How that works for creating magic... that might take more time and ACTS. Especially since there might not be real culture or much sentience yet. But that makes just one plane with all the elements instead of six. An additional ACT in the initial stages could separate the created plane into six subplanes or something. But then how do they mix? See?

I mean, you're trying to do something very cool but pretty complex. Complex things take a lot of effort when you are limited to simple declarative sentences to define it. You'll depend a lot of me Adjudicating things and playing off that as well.

But, as always, communication of your intent helps to achieve it.

At three ACTs per week, this looks to be taking about a month of your time just to build the physical, or metaphysical, infrastructure. That's not a bad thing. Of course, other gods might wreak havok... *looks at the cat and the trickster*


Yeah I definitely need to make it two acts. But only 2 acts man why couldn't I remember that bit. Okay revised act coming down the Pipe.

With Both his hands he used the elements to create a place outside of reality. An empty void filled with bountiless potential. The rules were the same in this reality for now. Here would be the place where magic was born not in the body of some beast or man but the plane in which they used to gain access to the phenomenal power.

As he sat satisfied at his work sitting in this pocket he'd call home for however long it took. He began to speak. "The magic plane existed much the same with only the elements and the gods to mess around with it. But, with time and effort it began to shape. Floradon didn't know what life would look like when the plane was finished, but he did know it would be wondrous in it's own right."

Re: OOC

Looks perfectly serviceable to me.

But I only guarantee a certain amount of satisfaction. I try my best to also guarantee the opposite. Heh. IF everyone is perfectly happy, then I think there isn't enough dramatic elements.

Re: OOC

One person put it to me a bit like the Genie wish, because of your word choices, AO can and at least sometimes should use word loopholes and poor definitions to mess with the gods. Not too much, but it's the part covered by GM's fiat, if everything is going too smoothly, shake things up a bit, and should be " at least interesting," as the old wrath rule goes.

Re: OOC

In reply to Ao (msg # 98):

If I can't work with the end result into making the next step I can't possibly make anything else, and the only option to continue would be to make a new plane which won't be very fun for either of us if I'm just the planesmaker.

That being said after this action would be 4 different actions which are far more exploitable.
