Meanwhile, more productive members of the tribe work on getting their cannons out onto the water, on the boats. This necessitates bigger boats. [Xebec 3/15]

After what seems like an age, the determination of Oldman Golgat gets the job done. The distillery is completed! It will be the foundation of future magical concoctions. Or maybe just normal concoctions. [Blue Sap Distillery 12/12], [+5 construction, +5 alchemy, +2 economy], [resource: Blue Sap Brew]

The Fauns begin a project with the Bacatia to develop so-called 'life trees' to replace their need for blood as nutrition. [Life Trees 5/15]

KRATIYA

With one hand, the corrupt senate caused a great upheaval in Kratiyan society; with the other, they pretend at having the solutions to the very problems they themselves have caused. Industrialists line their pockets at the expense of the common people. The situation deteriorates rapidly; the plunging of a culturally-driven nation into the realm of hard and uncomfortable labor places a tremendous strain on its people. But progress waits for no one.

KOBOLDS

A kobold scientist of great note pens a landmark work that seeks to unify the various theories and physical models to date. His attempt is more than successful, and Kobold society celebrates their new understanding of the world around them. [Mechanica Koboldica 20/20], [resource: Algebra], [+7 mathematics], [+7 physics], [+4 architecture], [+3 culture]
Mechanica Koboldica - Reduced chance of failing construction project rolls.

Before construction on the Jewelry shop gets too far, the architect notices a structural flaw in the foundation. Using the principles of the Mechanica he manages to correct for this problem, but the work has to be undone first. [Jewelry Shop 0/3]

Your delegation arrives at the Crabkin Empire, but rather than be impressed with your achievements, you have the sense they are somewhat threatened by your strength. Upon leaving, you diplomats are bid farewell by a full military salute with Crabkin in full coral armor. It's a polite gesture, but there is an undercurrent of tension in the display. [-1 diplomacy]

RAZGRIZ

The southern mines are expanded. They're lucky enough to quickly find coal of good enough quality to suit their purposes; the hills in the deep tundra seem to be a good source for it. [resource: coal], [+2 mining], [+2 expansion]

The increasing complexity of Razgriz architectural ambitions requires glass to see its vision through (see what I did there?) [Glassworks 5/7]

Construction of the college continues. A local source of glass will certainly help in its completion... [College of Alchemy 11/20]

>>2046873

LIZARDMEN

Thanks to the combined efforts of the Fauns and Lizardmen, the shapeshifting project is completed. The ability to change into a form similar to their bonded animal companions increases empathy between the two individuals, strengthening their magic into an almost psychic connection.

The task represents a large first for the Lizardmen nation, working with a group of foreigners to complete a larger task. Still, the delegation is glad to be back within the borders of the swamp.

The Crafts-lizards third of the council puts forward a plan to centralize and streamline production for the benefit of society, with lizards of different specialties mixing to share thoughts and ideas. The plan is swiftly approved. [Workshops 5/7]

A few creative rangers ask the shamans to help them graft power plums into the trees in and around Hill-Home. The task of changing over old growth to new fruit-producing trees will take time. [Power Plum Forest 5/15]

BEGRAVEN REUS

The great excavation continues! They've already found several types of stone worth further investigation... [Abyssal Excavation 10/12]

The three factions continue to debate, but the pure-pictograph side of things loses momentum when they realize the complexity of having a specific symbol representing each and every thing that exists. [Written Language 5/7]

GNOMES

Enterprising young Gnomes are sent by their families to the great University in Kratiya to learn what they can of Kratiyan culture and attempt to integrate this into their own society in beneficial ways.

STANGALLI

The Stangalli continue to make overtures to the southernmost Birdman tribe. [Birdmen R' Us 11/20]

Meanwhile, work is redoubled on trading posts both foreign and domestic. A series of Windcart™ stations is set up on the roads between cities to allow drivers to rest between trips at breakneck speeds while the cargo continues on with another driver. Airship landing pads are now a regular site in cities and large villages friendly to the Stangalli. [Trading Places 18/20]

BACATIA

The draconic gemstone more than doubles the output of magical forces applied to the creation of fleshgolems. Efficiency rises, and there's even less pain involved for the prisoners. How wonderful!

APES

The Ape elders soar into the spirit realm. This time, they can sense success; they can feel it in their marrow as sure as their heartbeats. The way is long and fraught with peril, but they finally reach the core of the realm, where, floating in spirit form, they are greeted by a pulsing white light.

The Apes prostrate themselves before their god. "Mighty H'ar-Ambe," the lead elder says, "we have come seeking your guidance. How might we grow stronger? What is your will?"

"Stronger?" They can feel a smile from the light. "Haven't you already, simply by coming here?"

The realization stuns the Apes. The very strength some of them sought has already been instilled in their spirits by the repeated treks. H'ar-Ambe's hand had guided them all along.

H'ar-Ambe's power passes over them. They see a vision of a temple high atop the tallest mountain of their valley. It is a mighty, soaring pinnacle, forged from rock seemingly fused together with brute force. Great bridges and walkways span miles to cross to other mountain peaks. H'ar-Ambe's light seals a great darkness within the mountain, under the temple, a place where evil is housed and guarded from the world.

"Let it be so," H'ar-Ambe says. And then, he vanishes. [Enlightenment of H’ar-Ambe 15/15]

[+7 fighting spirit], [+5 religion], [+3 healing magic], [+2 enlightenment], [stability is already maximized. The Apes randomly expand, see map]
[Great Temple of Enlightenment 0/40]

Note: The requirement to learn [Thousand Hands Against the World] is reduced to 20 points.

As the elders meet with, H’ar-Ambe, enlightenment descends upon the Apes. They see a vision of a thousand hands supporting the world from below, and understand that each one of them is a hand of a higher power, supporting all that is good in that world. The next attempt of a monk to strike a practice target renders it crushed in hundreds of places. But for some reason, it feels...different. [Thousand Hands Support the World 20/20] [+10 martial arts], [+10 fighting spirit], [+3 religion], [+2 enlightenment]

[Thousand Hands Support the World Technique] - In combat, roll an extra die. Add 1/2 the value of this die to your combat total. When you use an action to work on the Great Temple, roll an extra die. Add 1/2 the value of this die as a bonus to your action.

Meanwhile, Ape agriculturalists realize the increasing value of the spiritually-reinforced begonias. Their flowers contain the purified essence of what gives them their strength-boosting properties. It also has even more vicious side-effects, dulling the mind while overcharging the body. The brave Ape that experimented with it had to be brought down by five of his peers, and then was out cold for three days. At least the flowers look pretty around the spirit tree.

A rather peculiar Gnome arrives to Lachstagen. He looks different than the one described as having participated in the Tourney, much. . .bigger, and with the look of someone who does a lot of protein and swole.

"HI THERE" he says in a voice somewhat too loud "MY NAME IS TORK. I'M FROM CLAN TORK.

I HEARD YOU GUYS LIKE EXPLOSIONS. WE AT THE TORK CLAN SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME. IT'S SO AWESOME, WE"D LIKE TO WORK WITH YOU ON OUR NEXT AND GREATEST PROJECT YET!"

The Gnome raises both his fists and strains his biceps.

1. The Gnomes are awestruck by what they learn at Kratiya, and now suddenly have an innovative breakthrough.

The Malewands discover the exact reason their Iron Wands are overheating.

"It is not, as we originally suspected, that the Wands are getting too hot due to a buildup of heat magic. Kratiyan Science correctly deduce's that any metal with sufficient resistance, and insufficient conductivity, will heat up in the presence of energy! This means we need to reassess both the chemical makeup of our metals and develop a way to discharge this excess energy. This we can now do, in the form of Lightning"

The Malewand Clan students at Kratiyan academies apply the Kratiyan knowledge of Electrical Engineering, attempt to develop "Lightnign Wands". Using some borrowed and traded copper, a small amount of Voltshroom, and other electrical conductors, the goal is to allow for wands to discharge any excess magical energy as pure electricity, rather than heat. To protect the Gnomes, they wear leather or rubber gloves per Kratiyan saftey rules.

Not only does this solve the overhating issue for Iron Wands, it also allows the Gnomes to finally develop "Lightning Elemental Magic"

1. Electrifying Industry 19/25 +80

As the sun rises over the domes and spires of the Violet City, a change can be seen. Namely, despite the sun only rising the city is bright as day. It shines over the lakeside with an electric blue glow. The nation is beginning to settle into its new shape, forcefully molded as it was by the perversion of industry. What emerged is a state very much changed by its experiences.

2. Influence Kobolds +80

The neighboring Kobold nation has long lived under the shadow of the consulate, trading up and down the river through lake Krat. Often, traders would bring back stories or goods from the Violet City and its cultural influence was felt. Now, the attraction grows stronger. More finished goods, more stories of the Violet city lit up in the night. More music comes, more artwork is traded, and more language is spoken.

3. Influence Lachstagen +80

The influence on Lachstagen is not so subtle. The Lachstagen are met with cultural missionaries. People who speak Lachsman, who have an idea of their cultural practices. These people come to teach. They teach a finfer Kratiyan language, finer Kratiyan art, introduce the Lachstagen to the beauty of the harp, mandolin, and organ. They teach them a refined culture, and even though some are run off and others murdered, more always seem to come.

>Action 1
The Construction of the Collegia faces a short setback as new problems begin to manifest themselves during the project's creation. The rate of supply of essential materials like glassware, lumber, and even alchemical instruments cannot coincide with the rate of its use. The lack of materials and the lapse of work that it inspires causes the workers to shift from an industrious pace to a more inert one. The construction area which used to ring with songs about work now becomes a concert ground featuring songs about women, alcohol, and docked pay.
The only person who is not affected by the events is the project manager, Sir Brgynwerth. for even though the workers noticed that Brgynwerth's lists of instructions have lowered, they did not know that this was in part due to him directing his talents into assailing the suppliers for a more materials rather than using it towards them. Luckily, satry folks coming from the hillands decides to participate in the construction of the Collegia. These beastmen are more attuned to nature but readily adapts themselves to the industry of the town as they had experienced Razgrizian industry in past projects of cooperation. Their abilities and expertise in natural magic makes excellent time in the creation and botanical growth of the conservatory as well the atrium of the main building. Their magical songs reverberates even through the halls not only twisting wood and wines into beautiful and intricate shapes but also provided a lasting air of magical mysticism in the Lycuem of Alchemy.

>Action 3
With a supply of high grade coal, Experienced smelters expresses the possibility of recreating the Old Empire's ubitquitious steel. The current Smelter however lacks the required instruments to create the alloy and new plans for a steel foundry is made. A special mix between crushed, silted, and purified coal with iron that is blasted with immensely hot oxygenated air would create the conditions that turns the iron pellets, which are provided by the smelter, into liquid steel. An array of stone blasting forges will be the site of both the oxygenation and combination processes and each of the forges products of molten steel is directed into an individual alchemically treated stone pot or ladle. the molten mixture is then constantly blasted with hot air while pellets of tin, copper, or purified coal is added by a master smelter to create steel with the desired qualities.

ACTION 3: TRADE - BEGRAVEN REUS - MECHANICA KOBOLDIA/ALGEBRA FOR CONCRETE [QM's discretion which is tradeable, IC we'd be giving them a copy of the manuscript and teaching them what it means.]

The scouts that flew north report back and a clamor goes through the confederacy - these people of the north are builders, like the Kobolds, and have come from the depths of the earth as the Kobolds came from the mountain-caves. They do not seem terribly developed, and the Kobolds have a chance to reach out a helping hand. They determine to help this culture and to learn from it.

A delegation is put together including several of their wiser sages - for help in understanding these foreign people and their language and customs. They bring gifts of fur and of tools - things useful to the culture of a survivalist - and a few riches to maintain some politeness. They take along copper engravings of their new masterwork, the Mechanica, sheets of beaten metal scored with their diagrams and symbols.

The delegation arrives in the lands of the blind giants and presents itself as peaceful, leaving food and gifts on neutral ground and retreating so the Reus may retrieve them. They establish their neutrality slowly, as one culture of survivors would to another, knowing they are the strangers. They sit in camp and await the response, fires blazing in the day and night, drums of stretched hide played intermittently to announce their presence.

If and when they are received, they are likely to do their utmost to establish good relations and express admiration for the hardiness of the blind giants - especially for their concrete. They are equally likely to offer this in exchange for tutelage in their new discipline of Algebra and Mechanics.

> ACTION 3: TRADE - KOBOLD - CONCRETE FOR MECHANICA KOBOLDIA/ALGEBRA [QM's discretion which is tradeable, IC we'd be giving them a sample of our concrete solution, and instructing them on how to use and formulate it]

While performing a routine check of Begraven's territory, a scout detects the presence of interlopers assembled on the border. Wary, the scout creeps slightly closer to the congregation, all the while rapidly releasing a series of low frequency pulses. The sequence of pulses sweep languidly down the mountainside, caressing the jagged, rocky terrain, and then carry back again somewhat fainter, each return further clarifying on the scout's understanding of the situation. After a couple minutes of observation, the giant turns back, making for Thonce Narerv with all haste.

Two days and a night pass by without anything of note occurring, on the second night, the Kobold encampment awakes to a subdued cacophony of rumbling beats and groans. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k3-lNJaWjJA) Nine Begraven Reus, bearing stone pick axes and slings, emerge from the gloom beyond the camp, encircling it. Three more stalk out from the darkness and make their way into Kobold delegation's encampment. They are intercepted by several Kobold representatives, who then attempt to open a dialogue.

Progress on communication is gratingly slow, as the giants seem to lack an alphabet, and communicate largely through echolocation, producing sounds that range from piercing clicks to rumbling booms, all of which are beyond the Kobold's ability to replicate faithfully. As such, the Kobolds are forced to rely almost entirely on pantomiming their negotiations. Thankfully, despite their their rough reception and the plodding rate of progress, the 'talks' proceed astonishingly smoothly and after several tense hours negotiations conclude. From what the Kobold sages could parse, the Giants have agreed to exchange the knowledge of creating and using concrete, in exchange for their knowledge of mechanics, and have instructed them to send representatives to their fortress city at dawn's first light, there they will conduct the exchange.

Bonus: n/a

> Meanwhile, one of the Begraven Reus involved with developing a form of written language for record keeping, specifically one of the giants supporting pictograph-based-records, craves meaningless patterns and geometric symbols onto a stone slab. It has no practical purpose, but it sure is somewhat interesting to behold.

The scent of the flowers nearly puts the more adventurous Fauns to sleep. Those that held back have to drag them out and into fresh air, holding thick cloths over their faces. [Resource: Tired Lilies]

In the distance, further into the mists, you hear a sinster-sounding cry...after the first incident, the Fauns flee in terror.

APES

The Apes find a suitable peak at the tip of the mountain range, overlooking the great valley in the distance that is the home of the Dwarves. The peak itself towers over the surrounding mountains, but has many flat shelves and plateaus suitable for building structures. And yet, despite the solemn dignity of the mountain, there's something strange about it...something that makes the hairs on the back of every ape raise up.

They cannot deny the similarity of the mountain to their lingering vision. [Great Temple of Enlightenment 5/40], [+1 expansion]

The Empress refuses to see the delegation. They politely accept your overtures, but hint rather obviously that they are looking elsewhere for allies. Your delegation reports back that they'll probably need some time before opening themselves up to normal relations again, but at least they are no longer actively hostile toward you...just standoffish. [+4 diplomacy]

Work on the jewelry workshop is completed! Carved rubies steadily make their way into Kobold society. [resource: jeweled rubies], [+4 construction], [+3 economy]

The Kobold delegation arrives in the land of the giants in the distant north. Despite the elevation, it's much warmer here, but the Dragonwrought are almost happy for the temperature change.

The Kobolds are in awe of the great fortress that towers as impressive as the mountains around it. In learning the concrete formula, they ask for a demonstration after hearing it doesn't take long to set. The giants pause, discuss among themselves. Eventually, they agree. The sudden awkwardness is not lost on the Kobold diplomats.

A small square column of concrete is mixed and poured. Kobold mathematicians are fascinated as it begins to harden in the sun. They spend the night in the dizzying fortress, and the next day, they return to view the finished product.

A dragonwrought knocks on a corner out of curiosity. A hunk of the stuff breaks off and falls to the ground. The crack spreads through the column, and a moment later, with a loud -snap-, part of it slides away and breaks into pieces.

The Kobolds glance at the fortress in the distance, then back at the column, then at the 'formula' they're currently holding. Being masters of traps and ambush, it doesn't take them long to put 2 and 2 together.

"Explain yourselves!" the lead diplomat shouts. "What is this?!"

The situation deteriorates rapidly once the Kobolds realize they were almost duped. One of the dragonwrought uses his fire magic to burn the copy of the Mechanica while it is still in the bag held by the head Begraven Reus diplomat. The incident almost makes the two sides come to blows.

The Kobold delegation leaves in a furious huff.

>In recent seasons our people have ventured out from the swamps and seen the lands of others. Some, like our friends the Fauns, respect their land and care for it. Others, like the Dwarves and the Kratiyans, desecrate the land which provides them sustenance and succor with brick, stone and other atrocities. We have seen where this leads, in the depths of Black-bog in the dark temple. Many Lizards who have seen the outside world begin preaching a new philosophy, that each race is the chosen shepherds of their land. It is their responsibility to care for it's land, it's beasts and it's magic and that they should be judged accordingly. [+40] (+20 Shaman Caste, +20 Ranger Caste)

1. The Challenges faced by Gnomes in developing Iron Wands grew exponentially, but this only piqued their research interest. Every new problem meant a new solution, and in every solution was a new application.

The concept of "Static Electro-magical Energy" was just being understood. It helped that the Kratiyan's themselves were electrifying their nation, so they could ride on their heavy research into electricity, something the Gnomes themselves planned on replicating soon.

Two proposed solutions for dealing with Electro-Magical energy were being tested. One in which it was to be dircted safely away from the user, such as to the ground or perhaps to a dried Voltshroom for storage, and another about how to direct a discharge.

It was a Malewand named Nekola who devised the perfect solution. A backpack or side back held by a Gnome, in which several empty voltshrooms were stored. The Static Electro-magic would flow into them, charging them.

His next idea, and the most critical, was developing a magic spell specifically to ionize the air in a straight line directly in front of the wand, to a specific target. The stored or excess electricity would then flow from the wand directly to wherever it was pointing. If a Gnome found his backpack of Voltshrooms overcharged, he could safely discharge it to the ground this way!

The technology for proper Lightning Wands was still a ways off, but the development of Iron Wands was able to progress further.

One of the major locations of the industrial revolution is a boom-town turned city in northeast. Nestled between the river and the rich hills, this city produces a sizable chunk of the nation's finished goods. Linked by river and lake to the Shroomlands of western Kratiya, the city of Arista, the metal processing city of Petrioka, and the Violet City itself, this new city named Vossik is as much Goblin as it is Kratiyan. Made from violet brick and stout green oak the city's volt-rods climb into the air alongside the thick forests and rolling hills. It's population is mostly goblin, but a sizable portion of the poorer Gobyirs, or half-Goblins, have moved to the city to make their fortunes.

Deidre arrived from Kratyia as soom as the Rock Garden was finished, and it didnt took long for her to meet her father, Lugh, founder of the Lugh clan. Their plans had finaly come to frutition and to work with the Kratyian consulate that she apreciated so much.... but now things had changed.

On her last trip to the cities of the Counsulate she faced poverty and decadence on the streets, while many of the beautiful farmlands that surrounded them were being destroyed to give space to the mushroom farms. Arriving in the Hillands

Her dad talked to her about a coup against the other clans with the support of a kratyian politican, words that she wish she could forgot. Deidre quickly went on her own way, but not without telling her dad that she would never allow such thing to happen, giving him a last chance by not telling the Council.

These events broke the image that she had constructed of Kratyia.
Deidre them decided that if the Kratyia of her dreams was dead, she would create her own.

Once hearding about the mysterious field of flowers on the mist valley, as well as the sinister sounds beyond it, Connad, leader of the Greines, rode with a group of warriors to the north frontiers. As the tensions grew on the south, he knew that having the expansion was more important than ever.

Facing the misty fields of flowers, he demanded to talk with 2 of his druids that had explored the region. Soom the 2 arrived, landing in front of him with the form of giant crows.

"What you have to tell me?" the hulkling clan leader asked.

"Sir, we could search in the area for any kind of creature capable of bypass this field, and explore this region" the first one said. "Or..." the other druid completed "we could use our newly acquired techiniques and contacts with the alchiemists of Razgriz to study these flowers, and create a solution that let us bypass whatever enchantment this is"

Connad pondered about these options... while a tonic like that could be useful, his instintics told him that it would take time and investigating the mists was a very important deal. Maybe it could give him an upperhand on whatever that viper of the Lughs was planing to do.

"Search the area for any creature or entrance that we can use to cross this witchcraft! I will be riding throuth this field in a week! Later we can share whatever we discover with those pansy sailors."

>Action 3
Search for animals that arent affected by the flowers, if we find anything we will immediatly turn into said creature and go throuth the field!

""Duty, Honor, Country" — those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn. You now face a new world, a world of change. by the unending wisdom of AO, we have been thrusted into the unknown reaches of the new world, and thus has sent us a new destiny. Our growing presence marks a beginning of another epoch in the long story of mankind. And our story promises to be one of greatness! there has never been a more abrupt or staggering evolution in any civilization. We daunting few, we patriots of Razgriz, now deal with measures unimaginable. As our forefathers gave us the means to conquer the seas, we deal now with the wonderous ponderance of a new land and the illimitable distances of the sky. We are reaching out for a new and boundless frontier. but along with the promise of our greatness comes danger, for as Razgriz grows, the forces that dares covets her destiny begins to wake

so to all loyal sons of Razgiz, hear my call and remember this edict, that through all this welter of change and development. your mission remains fixed, determined, inviolable. It is to win our wars. Everything else in your professional career is but corollary to this vital dedication.

ACTION 1-3: REVERSE-ENGINEER CONCRETE - The Kobolds, rather saddened by the refusal of the giants to deal fairly, just shrug their scaly shoulders and move on with their efforts. They apply the reason they're proud of to the task of unlocking the secret of concrete, going through a rigorous process of studying the various materials in their false formula and modifying what they saw the giants do to create a less brittle mixture. They try different aggregate, powdered stone, volcanic ash, lime, and all matter of substances they identify with a sort of precursor to materials science. After a number of such mixtures are created, they begin to test the properties of the sample in its ability to bear weight and withstand damage and other force.

LIZARDMEN

In observation of a fallen empire under the swamp, as well as the industrial rigor that tears away the lands of other nations, the Lizardmen naturally come to formulate their own opposing philosophies. [+2 naturalism], [+1 culture]

The addition of more recruits seems to accelerate the process for all involved, as if a greater amount of magic is being drawn forward. Silvery mists begin to materialize around some of them, though they still lack form. [Spirit Familiars 23/25]

The only thing left to do is to graft them to the central tree! Can plums of this size even be called plums anymore? [Power Plum 14/15]

GNOMES

The new method of safely dealing with excess energy production while storing it for later use multiplies the efficiency over 4-fold! [Iron Wands 13/15]

Tork's gains have never been greater. He does his lunges with massive stone bricks, and eats bowls of steel-cut oats for breakfast. [Cultural Exchange 4/5]

>>2054896

KRATIYA

A massive field of voltshrooms extends into the distance on the western shores of the lake, the so-called Shroomlands. A whole industry just to supply organic matter as fungi-food has developed on its own. The naturally collected charge of the fungi is channeled into a primitive form of the transformer, which sends it on thick copper cables across the lake and into the city. By day, the violet brick shines in the sun, and by night, it glows indigo under electric lights. [Electrifying Industry 25/25], [+10 industry, +9 electricity, +8 culture]

[The City Never Sleeps] - When other people attend your university in the future, half the culture they gain becomes permanent.
[UniverCity 1/5] (Gnomes) - Have 5 civs attend your university for an extra bonus.

The Kratiya expand into the northeast as the city of Vossik grows rapidly thanks to pioneering roles in the electricity industry. [+3 organization, +2 expansion], [see map]

BEGRAVEN REUS

The Abyssal excavation is finished. The Reus found all kinds of interesting things on the way down, and now have quick access to the underground.

FAUNS

The warning signs of a society that is frayed around the edges has imprinted itself strongly on Deidre's mind. While solemn, the experience is an inspiration for her to help her people avoid the same fate, a song that is a reminder of the fading of lush green growth for the bare-bones of Autumn. [Saga of the Autumn 5/15]

Fearing the nearby threat lingering in the valley of mist, the Fauns fortify their villages. [+5 fortification], [+1 expansion]

Surely there must be some animal that is unaffected by the Tired Lilies. The Fauns stake out near the valley and keep watch for their unknown quarry. Their eyes are trained on the suspicious mists. [Navigating the Valley 5/7]

DWARVES

The eyes of the magineers sparkle as brightly as the diamonds that store the mana. The potential is limitless! [Mana Engines 5/25]

As the dwarven army is arranged into legions and units, friendly rivalries spring up between the various officers. Each is determined to make their squadron the vanguard of the dwarven forces. [The Iron Laws 10/15]

The dwarves will stop at nothing to brew the perfect brew...NOTHING! [Improved Brew 5/5], [food: abundant], [resource: Ale], [+5 brewing]

Note: I consider brewing to be an aspect of dwarf culture.

>>2056125

APES

The foundations of the temple are set in stone. Monks and martial artists carry good stone from a pit dug in the mountain side up to the peak. A path is worn by the marching of the feet of hundreds of workers, the same road that was paved with stairs in their vision. [Great Temple of Enlightenment 13/40]

The Apes sense the source of malevolence through the caverns that lead into the mountain. An entrance to the deep is discovered in the stone pit they are building. The elders suspect that, whatever it is, the temple itself is a device of sorts to hold this evil back.

A group of brave young monks take the trek into the dark underground.

Only one returns.

His eyes are bloodshot; his fur is ripped and torn in places, injuries cover his body. His own blood - and the blood of others - mats his fur, mixed with some kind of oozing black liquid that is eating away at his flesh. He is washed and healed with magics, though the injuries are resistant even to the influence of the Spirit Tree.

His mind is as damaged as his body. He babbles incoherently about the experience, about the deaths of his compatriots, the sounds of their bones crunching as they were eaten alive. He repeats the same words over and over: "That thing...that thing...that thing!"

RAZGRIZ

After a stirring speech by Var Emrhy leads to the creation of a new military-citizen relationship, in which all citizens must join the military for a period of two years upon reaching the age of 17. [2-Year Conscription 5/15]

In the background of the new focus on military discipline is a parallel focus on the need for advanced intelligence. An organization specializing in such activities is quietly founded under the guidance of Var Emrhy and a few other nobles, with the leaders reporting directly. [R.I.S. 1/10]

The Razgriz iron industry provides an important launching point for undertaking the large-scale production of steel, a relatively advanced metal product. [Steel Foundry 6/15]

ACTION 3: LINK ROLLS WITH APES - DEVELOP CONTEMPLATIVE TRADITION - [KOAN OF THE OUTSIDERS]:

A group of Kobolds wander south along the river's branches and make their way to the Ape Monk Spirit Tree, sitting within sight of its branches. They seem affected and do not leave. They sit still in contemplation, overcome by the conditions of the world.

When asked to explain themselves, they say, "We are forthright in our trade dealings, but others do not treat us the same; we offer friendship but are given duplicity; we do not try and reshape the lives of others, but others meddle in our affairs. We will sit here until we have an answer for such matters."

The apes are invited to join in the endeavor. Perhaps together an answer to these issues can be formulated as an expression of their own cultures.

[The aim of this tech is to facilitate conversion of foreign culture on a player's sheet into a bonus to the player's culture without lowering stability. This is accomplished by the culture coming up with its own perspective on the foreign influence and integrating its experience of the outside world internally to resolve inner strife.]

>>2056868
Kobolds enter the neutral territory marked by the Lizardfolk at the edge of the swamp, indicating they seek to make a case before the Council of Protectors. They place gifts before the Lizardfolk and indicate their willingness to curb their expansion into the swamp, indicating they do not seek to impinge themselves on the territory of the lizardmen.

They retreat to await a decision by the other party, doing their utmost to show respect.

>>2056968
A hunting party meets the Kobolds. They arrange a meeting with members of the Shamanate to discuss terms. Gifts are refused, citing independence and self reliance, and the diplomats arrive. The Kobolds already know the trail markers, but are warned of an impending expansion where the borders will expand. A promise is made that the Lizardmen will not expand beyond the wetlands, and that there will be no aggression against any Kobold not found to be trespassing in exchange for the same treatment of the Lizards borders and people. It is made clear that is the right of both nations to capture or kill any member of the opposite nation found in violation of the treaty without diplomatic approval. The terms are offered to the Kobolds bluntly, with no option for negotiation. Accept or decline.

>>2056997
The Kobolds accept the terms of the treaty and prepare to withdraw behind the negotiated border, pending any further point to the negotiation.

>>2057006
A standing offer is made for the Kobolds to return to the borders with any offers or projects that they think will interest us, particularly in the horticultural sphere and the agreement is concluded.

1. Today is a proud day for the Gnomes.

It marks the cusp of a new breakthrough in not only Wandcrafting, but Gnomish Magiscience as well.

Through the application of mechanical concepts observed from the Dwarves, and in no small part by the Electrical Research of Kratiya, the Gnomes have not only gotten close to Iron Wands, a tool which would dramatically increase the power of every wand everywhere, but learned so much more.

The theoretical and practical applications of electricity were now understood by them, voltshrooms, circuitry, the electro-magic field.

The Malewand clan had pioneered it, but one above them all had done above and beyond all others.

Nekola T'zzla Malewand was hailed as a hero of the Gnomes for his brilliance during the research efforts. A man of vision and stamina not unlike the electrified bright lights of Kratiya itself. He was the foremost expert in Lightning Elemental Magic now, and his name is synonymous to a particular type of Iron Wand which specializes in the discharging of Lightning.

The T'zzla Wand.

The completion of Iron Wands would be but a taste of some of new magical technologies he intends to develop.

2. Opposite in almost every way from the refined and cool composure of the Malewands, the almost brute like Tork Clan was far more invested in Lachstagen culture.

Tork himself had spent so much time with the Goats, he practically lived among them. No Kratiyan tea and biscuits for him, he ate Hemp Brownies and Steel Cut Goat Oats.

Beloved most of all was the shared goal and vision between the Torks and the Lachstagen, a love of EXPLOSIONS.

Tork would celebrate the completion of the Cultural Exchange building with a massive fireworks display, a prelude to their dream of developing new EXPLOSIVE ELEMENTAL MAGIC.

POST 1/2

>>2057163
Actions:

>Rumors spread about the evil beneath the mountain, and the Elders are unsure how to handle it. Some of the strongest monks were absolutely destroyed, and a single Ape returned with his mind nearly broken.
For a people who generally can retain their composure even in the presence of immense danger it is shocking to see this happen. This may be out of our league for the time being, but we cannot allow this evil to ever escape and we cannot allow others to fall victim to it.
The Elders have informed people to stay out of the mountain and to focus on the construction of the Great Temple. People are still in very high spirits despite the bad news and they work happily to fulfill the vision given to them by H'ar-Ambe. [Great Temple of Enlightenment 13/40]

Hand of H'ar-Ambe(+20) To Combat Evil(+20) Aesthetics(+6) Construction(+2) Organization(+1) Willpower(+1) Big and Strong (+3 to related rolls) Spiritual (+3 to light magic/religious rolls) = 56 BONUS

>The Evil beneath the mountain is dangerous and perhaps incredibly old. Something with that much power must have been there for quite some time. If only they had more information, though it is doubtful any of the other nations have any knowledge of this
beast. Some Apes are daring enough to try using Astral Projection to observe the beast, but the Elders forbid it. They are unsure how much power the beast has or if it is capable of harming them even within the spirit world. The Apes decide to ask someone
slightly less dangerous, a very old fellow who has lived here before The Apes or any of these other nations. A few Apes lie down and get into their Spirit Form flying off to speak to....The Dragon(we really gotta name this guy...)! Perhaps he could give us some information
about what we are dealing with. Taking some fruit offerings couldn't hurt as well. [The Thing Under the Mountain ?/?]

"The military citizenship program involves grouping people of similar ages into military companies whos members number around 110. The company comprises of 80 individual soldiers, 20 members that plays the roles of support and auxiliary, and a command staff that comprises of 10 officers. The men are expected to fight via the company's battle group which includes all 80 soldiers, 5 sergeants, 1st lieutenant, 2nd lieutenant, and all led by a Company Commander. The soldiers are drilled mercilessly in the battle group and it is expected that each battle group is able to act as a single unit in a battlefield. To provide the company the ability to handle multiple tasks, the battle group further divided into 5 functional groups called squads. Each squad comprises of 16 soldiers and a sargent. the last member of the command staff is the political officer, also referred to as the 'PO'. the political officers are given the job of relaying information to the other companies, to the assigned war council, or even directly to the capital and thus his work usually acquits him from the main battle line as he is needed to write reports and missives constantly. the support units are often medics, scouts, engineers, alchemists, and even entertainers. The composition of the support staff is determined by the company commander. Alongside the job of relaying information, The political officer is also given the role of reporting misuse of power, abuse of authority, or general ineptitude of any acting command staff members to the capital, However the company commander is also given the same role and a commander's reports also includes the actions and behavior of the PO. allegations are then investigated by higher members of the officariat. This in turn creates a system of check and balances in the company which aims to maintain a strict code of excellence and organization.

Few men are brave by nature, but good discipline and experience make many so. Good order and discipline in an army are more to be depended upon than ferocity" - Razgrizian Tacticia, on the organization of the battlefield company

LIZARDMEN

Spirit familiars pop into existence for the young shamans. An entire generation is linked not only to living beasts, but spiritual guides that possess the natural wisdom of the swamp. [Spirit Familiars 25/25], [+15 spirit magic], [+10 magic control], [+5 shaman]

Spirit Familiars - In combat, roll an extra die and add its value to your combat total.

The power plums are fully integrated into the the ironwood trees that support Hill-Home and other static lizardmen villages that have begun to crop up. This provides a major boost to daily productivity. And they're high in dietary fiber! [Power Plum Forest 15/15], [+5 economy], [+3 ironwood tools], [+2 ironwood weapons], [+2 ironwood armor], [+2 nature magic, [+2 herbology]

You now have Power Plums as a resource, and do not rely on trade with the Apes for a regular supply.

The rangers have been feeling an imbalance lately in the council, especially with the new spirit familiars running around. Ultimately, survival in the swamp depends on their more mundane - but just as important - skills and techniques. Splashed-with-Water ultimately agrees with their argument and supports construction of a new facility dedicated to servicing the Ranger caste. Crafts-lzards, totem-carvers, and wood-singers converge on the land-end of the peninsula. [Ranger Conclave 10/25]

Meanwhile, Lizard-Kobold relations end on a positive note a mutual respect. [+1 diplomacy]

>>2056925

KOBOLDS

Determined to prove their newfound understanding of nature by figuring out the secret of 'liquid stone', scientifically-inclined Kobolds across the confederacy dedicate their minds to the research. Iterations of the formula push them closer and closer to success until a final public demonstration in Marven Gardens resists a blast of fire magic from a Dragonwrought magician. The elder council approves this formula for state usage. [resource: Concrete 20/20], [+5 construction, +5 logic, +10 chemistry]

Their success in finding their own form of concrete reminds the Kobolds of their failed attempt at outreach. They turn to the Apes, who they view as a trustworthy and contemplative race, to aid in solving their inner conundrum. [Koan of the Outsiders 4/40] (shared project, track carefully!)

FAUNS

The Fauns finally spot a creature that can make its way in and out of the valley without harm - a giant rabbit from the low slopes of Dromadhur. It seems to feed upon the Tired Lilies and is unaffected by their misty pollen. After eating their fill, the group of rabbits leave - and the Fauns are quick to catch a straggler to emulate. [Navigating the Valley 7/7/], [+4 shapeshifting], [+4 herbology]

BEGRAVEN REUS

Their intuitive understand of space and increasing complexity of their structures lead to only one destination: a great need for precise methods of measuring. Thus far methods vary wildly and are proprietary, passed down through individual families or workplaces. Enterprising minds attempt to integrate these various ideas into one system. [Primary Mathematical Principles 3/20]

The Reus are greatly interested in the strange 'gurgling' phenomenon. The temperature changes are also unusual. It is noted that the heat occurs in pockets; otherwise, as one digs deeper, things get colder. A branch of the Abyss is marked off for excavation above an already known heat-pocket; the approach is methodical and cautious. [Deep Tunnels 5/10]

>>2057163

APES

With a darker understanding of their ultimate purpose, the Apes redouble their focus on the temple. [Great Temple of Enlightenment 17/40]

Meanwhile, the Apes successfully make contact with the Dragon. What better help to fight a monster than another monster?

Their total defeat at the hands of the underground creature humbles the Apes. They begin to meditate on how not only to strengthen their spiritual, but mental defenses. [Void Aura 5/15]

The Apes join the Kobolds in their spontaneous meditation near the Spirit Tree. They seek a greater enlightenment concerning the influence of other cultures; how to remain open, and yet remain steady in their course. [Koan of the Outsiders 9/40] (shared project, track carefully!)

LACHSTAGEN

The Lachstagen break the 4th wall in order to bemoan their lack of use for their seafaring bonus. Luckily they rolled high enough to complete the project this turn!

KRATIYA

Mana-Coral Power Armor advances rapidly following the complete integration of electricity infrastructure. Now working prototypes don't have to wait for the latest voltshroom shipment; they can just be plugged in! [Mana-Coral Power Armor 10/15]

A new financial institution opens at the behest of the government, specializing in business-promoting loans in order to promote the economy. At least, that's what they want you to think!! END THE FED [Federal Bank 10/10], [+5 economy], [+5 currency], [+2 industry]

Your efforts produce [+5 Kratiya Culture] in Bacatia. As the vampires like to say Kratiyan wine...is to die for.

Stangalli students begin to arrive in Kratiya, eager to learn. [UniverCity 2/5]

>>2057349

STANGALLI

The benefits of mutual cooperation are undeniable. The birdmen are elevated in the minds of Stangalli society from "feathered suckers" to "good buddies that hit things we don't like". The nomadic southern tribe of the birdmen integrate their three-membered Warrior Council with the Council of Misers. The peoples unite under one flag, uniting their development in one motion, but cultural disparaties represent a significant upheaval for both parties.

[Birdmen R' Us 20/20], [+10 recurve bows], [+5 horse archery], [+5 warrior tradition], [resource: horses], [resource: wind feathers], [+5 wind magic]
The birdmen explain that wind feathers, when imbued with wind magic, can slice through wood the way a rock in a river cuts apart water. They are a speciality product of the southern nomadic tribe.
[stability: very low]
[see map for expanded territory]

Meanwhile, Tobal makes big progress with the Voltsticks. He's a bit inspired by the combat skills of their new birdmen citizens. The warrior council shows a great interest in his latest development, citing the advantage they might pose in armed conflict. [Tobal Boomsticks 14/15]

Representatives make their way to Kratiya to attend the university! Relations between the two nations have never been closer. The talkative Stangalli and cultured Kratiya always did get along. [+16 Kratiyan Culture (P)], [+17 Kratiyan Culture], [resource: Kratiyan Sympathizers]

The Stangalli and Birdmen both see the disadvantage in remaining separated, and aim to expand their territory. Stangalli economic might makes it easy for the birdmen to take control of larger swathes of the countryside. [+3 expansion]

>>2057565

RAZGRIZ

Good potential conscripts are pulled from the ranks and assigned to more important tasks. [Razgrizian Intelligence Services 5/10]

The Brebantian process specifies a method for creating stone blast forges that can both retain heat and withstand the wear and tear of repeatedly handling molten steel. [Steel Foundry 9/15]

Var Emhry has called, and the people answer. Military service is seen as a right of passage among young men to earn their place in society. [Military Citizenship 10/15]

>>2057738

BACATIA

Work on the laboratory continues. [Wet Work 10/20]

The Bacatia seek to strengthen their shadow warriors with their redeveloped blood magic. The old empire was feared for its dark assassins; the new one shall be as well. [+10 asassins]

Work on the mines is completed, and extracting the resources within will continue. The old mine of the empire was the source of its economic wealth - gold! [Zombie Mines 10/10], [+5 death magic], [+5 mining], [resource: stone], [resource: gold]

Note: You're out of Aratoa POWs. Aww, man. Guess you'll have to get more prisoners somewhere...

Kratiya's efforts have generated [+5 Kratiyan Culture] in your nation.

>>2058407

ORCS

The ballista is test-fired. It punches through two orcs, a great success! Metal shrapnel kills the orc that launches it, however, as the machine bursts apart from the forces. Big Orc insists on a higher efficiency. [Ballista 6/7]

Orc smiths are always hard at work, because with how the Orcs use them, weapons break often. [+1 craftsmanship], [+1 metal crafting]

After repeated messed-up attempts, the Orcs are whipped back into shape and expand Northwest. [+5 expansion], [see map]

>>2058680

DWARVES

Is there a limit to the mana engines? The dwarves are going to find out. Mana batteries are themselves linked in series or parallel, depending on energy needs, to power machinery. Initial attempts prove to be very unstable, but that's never stopped them before. [Mana Engine 15/25]

The Iron Laws, ironically, are set in stone. [Iron Laws 12/15]

>>2057201

1. With new Iron Wands and years of hard work and research in Kratiyan universities and studying from the Dwarves as well as Lachstagens, the Gnomes resume work on their Iron Mine for a stable resource, now much needed as Iron Wand technology had been completed.

Dwarven knowledge on the principles of Iron Ore and where it is most likely to grow underground were appllied, in addition Iron Wands were given a slight magnetic charge at one tip to act as detectors of veins of Iron Ore, using Kratiyan electro-magic principles.

They would slice up the hard Iron Ore using much stronger Iron Wands, and then electrically charge a large Metal Block magically held above the ores. With a finer filtration spell, they separated the Iron Ore from non-Iron compounds, which was then magnetically lifted up and collected en-masse.

The magical Harvesting of Iron would bring a new resource to the Gnomes!

2. The Gnomes believe in 4 primary elements in their elemental philosophy.
-Fire
-Caustic
-Lightning
-Explosion

These are not simply made up without reason or rhyme. The Four Elements are based on various types of crystal, shock crystals, acid crystals, flame crystals and boom crystals. These crystals were believed to be alive and some sort of life form, due to their capacity to grow under certain conditions such as being in the presence of certain elements like sulfur, magnetized iron ore, natural acids, and lava channels.

Previous attempts to harness their energy content were often met with failure, due to the limitations of wooden wands not being able to hold the charge without self destructing.

But now with Iron Wands, that was about to change.

The Gnomes are, for now, a primarily magical society. Boom Crystals was a solution to the alternative for gunpowder, a way to bring them into the age of projectile and explosive weapons like the goats to the south while staying true to their magical philosophy.

With new Iron Wands and skills and ideas gained from three different friendly nations, the Gnomes began work in learning the planting, cultivating, and harvesting of Boom Crystals. Time to put their new magisciences to work.

Thanks to Lachstagen knowledge on explosives, Dwarven ideas on preventing mine explosions, and Kratiyan safe research principles, they also learned some better saftey tips for avoiding death by explosion during the harvesting of these.

Kratiya is the only other city in the world in which Night becomes Day.

Bacatian students from these prominent families in administration, from prominent military families, and from wealthy merchants are all approached by these administrators to send their children to Kratiya to attend University. For the children, the change of scenery from the drab and uninteresting Bacatia to the bright and legendary Violet City is encouragement enough. For their parents, the first-class education and top of the line curriculum is only accentuated by the sheer number of connections that can be made through the University.

1. Banks of small diamonds are starting to be used to power larger machines, sometimes now not catching fire when they begin to be used. By filling the battery compartments with water, the dwarves discover that the diamonds can be kept cooling and won't spontaneously combust.

The Catulan Reavers are a human horde of warriors originating beyond the badlands to the south.

Being ultimately a society of raiders and mercenaries most of their resources and technology is stolen and extorted from now destroyed or enslaved civilisations that where unable to fight back the Catulans or received as payment for fighting on behalf or wealthier races.

While lacking in research potential and cultural development they more than make up for in their combat prowess and military genius. Magic is strictly sanctioned within their society, any mage is lucky if they are not executed for simply being alive within Catulan society. Every person who joins the Catulan's warriors is trained tirelessly and taught every aspect of war from a young age. Each and every one of them is a ruthless, efficient and disciplined killing machine, created with the purpose of destroying the enemies of their High Chieftain to whom they are fiercely loyal.

The Catulan High Chieftain has sent A Horde of the Reaver's into the north to find the necessary equipment needed to finish the construction of their warship and return it to their homeland back beyond the south. (Heavens Fall) A massive naval vessel that is more of a floating fortified city than a ship which acts as the home and capital of the Catulan people which if finished will bring the full might of the Catulan armies into the world.

>Meanwhile, at Clan Tork

>Tork
"ALRIGHT BOYS." Says the buff gnome, smoking a blunt the size of a water bottle. "The Goats are going to War.

AND CLAN TORK WILL JOIN THEM

I don't know who they'r fighting, but any enemy of the Lachstagen's is our enemy, and any Friend of their Friend is our Friend.

ARE YOU WITH ME CLAN TORK? I CAN'T HEAAAR YOOOOUUU"

A tremendous roar was heard all throughout spiked tents of the Tork settlement, as the whole of Clan Tork rejoiced at the thought of fighting alongside the Lachstagen's and proving their mettle.

The Buff Gnome had both fists raised high, when there was a terrible crack followed by sudden shouting. Tork looked down to see a smoking hole singed through flesh.

His nephew lay on the ground before him, having jumped in the way of the spellshot.

>Tork
"Lil' Buddy! NOOO!"

Another voice rang through the crowd. "Dammit, I missed."

Tork spun around to the voice. There standing in the center of a line of armed Gnomes stood a (relatively) tall gnome, hair combed, and a goatee beneath a smug smile on his face.

>Tork
"Jaqcue? JAQCUE?"

>Helios Jaqcue
"I can't let you support the Goats, Tork.

The Bacatians send their regards!"

Jaqcue and his armed men opened fire, while Tork ducked for cover pulling out his wand.

>TORK
"WANDS! WANDS!

I'M GONNA TEAR YOU IN HALF!"

The whole of clan Tork erupted in spell fire from a dozen angles, as Clan Helios men ambushed the Tork Clan.

---

During the battle Tork was severely wounded, but Helios Jaqcue had to retreat after sustaining terrible injuries when Tork leaped from a pile of dead bodies to body slam him.

Both clans had sustained heavy losses, and was a disaster equally. Helios failed in its task to wipe out the Torks, and the Torks had been bloodied by accurate Helios Fire. Whole tents were made were a blazing mess from lightning, fire, and kinetic spells.

But the end of the battle marked a great conflict in Leylis.

The Gnomish Civil War had begun.

BACATIA

Farhad adds in some new equipment to the expanding dark laboratory, a discombobulator and automated lobotomizer. Mind enslavement and zombification

made easy! [Wet Work 15/20]

The nature warriors work hard...or so the facade would display. Somehow, news leaks to the outside that the Bacatia are actually training their

assassins in some form of magical thievery... [Nature Warriors 10/15]

Bacatia declares war on the unruly Orcs! The vampire lords have no use for vassals that disobey...

The Kratiya Consulate's efforts to lure your nobles into their university have been successful. You gain [+17 Kratiya Culture] and [+17 Kratiya

Culture (P)]. [resource: Kratiyan Sympathizers]

(Note: half of the culture is permanent due to the effects of Kratiya's University)

GNOMES

Using their newly improved wands, the Gnomes are able to rapidly locate and delve into mineral deposits of iron ore. Tweaking their iron 'dowsing

rods' allows them to bypass smaller veins in favor of larger and sustainable ore deposits. [Iron Mine 5/5], [resource: Iron], [+2 mining], [+2

construction], [+1 electricity]

The Gnomes put their heads together and combine their base principles of magic, their knowledge of metalworking, Kratiyan electricity in order to

generate and harvest Boom Crystals. Highly unstable, the nascent boom crystals need to be 'grown' in a specialized chamber relatively isolated from

the surrounding environment. [Crystal Chrysalis 5/20]

>>2059080

ORE EATERS

A fungus farm is established in a new chamber in order to help feed the rapidly growing hive! [food: moderate], [+4 agriculture], [+2 construction]

The queen's orders are obeyed, and new passageways are dug into the mountains in an attempt to strike a vein of minerals. Unfortunately the new fungus

farm seems to have some interference with the queen's pheremones. Additional ventilation shafts solve the problem, but progress on the mine is slowed.

[Mineral Mine 1/5]

KRATIYA

The Mana-Coral Powered Armor is completed! The fused technologies of magic-resistant armor and electrical augmentation give even untrained goblins a big boost in combat. [+10 coral armor], [+10 anti-mystic], [+5 electricity]

Note: Anti-mystic refers to resistance to both mana-based and psychic-based offense.

[Goblin Shock Troops] - Roll an extra die in combat and add 1/2 the value to your combat total.

The Kratiya realize that the nature of electricity allows it to send signals at incredibly rapid speeds. Inter-city communication is now a cinch - messages that took all day to deliver arrive in seconds. [+5 organization]

This principle might also aid its communication with any civilization that has its own electrical technology...[Telegraph Wires 0/15]

The lure of lucrative business and world-class connections cannot be resisted by ambitious Bacatian nobles...not for long, anyway. You successfully enroll vampire students at the university! The Bacatian civilization gains +34 Kratiya culture; half of this is permanent. [UniverCity 3/5]

Congratulations, you've crushed a 4th die! Sacrifice the listed bonuses and add the new bonus:
[+20 New Model Business] - cannot be destroyed/stolen

New Trait: Nouveau Riche (+3 economy)

With your 4th die, pick any trait and upgrade it to +10 (for a trait with two bonuses, that would make it +5/+5)

APES

The temple's foundation is complete. Work on connecting nearby peaks via stone bridges, as seen in the vision, begins. The stone structures are supported by a wooden lattice before they are sealed in place. [Temple 27/40]

Work on the new form of their aura leaps forward rapidly. It seems that with each stone added to the temple, new insights are gained. The new external force seeks not to block or deflect attacks, but rather, render them null. [Void Aura 11/15]

The Apes do their part in settling the riddle of outside culture fluxing into their own society. [Koan of the Outsiders 14/40]

The reavers have traveled across the frozen wastelands seeking to rebuild their home. By hook or by crook, by word or by deed, they must bring back whatever they can find on order of the Warmaster. Their goal is to help construct Heaven's Fall, the massive warship that serves as the floating capital of the Reavers.

The Reavers begin with a special project. To complete the project, they must win 15 battles (or participate on the winning side of 15 battles). Each victory earns a critical part to help construct Heaven's Fall. Upon completion, Heaven's Fall will arrive the next turn, and the Reavers will transition into a new phase.

The Reavers cannot research and develop bonuses like normal nations. To gain new bonuses, they must steal them in combat, or trade for them with other nations in exchange for other bonuses, or favors. At present, the Reavers have no permanent territory.

All other rules apply to the Reavers normally.

>>2059216

LIZARDMEN

With the efforts of years-wisened totem carvers and their veritable army of apprentices, the ranger conclave rapidly transforms into a living fort the likes of which Lizardkind has never before constructed. [Ranger Conclave 20/25]

Enlightened as to the possibilities of magic, the Lizards decide to place a unique magical marker on each member of lizard society so as to restrict any possible subterfuge - and avoid innocent confusion, too. [Magic Marker 5/15]

Iron is good - steel could be better. By forging harder growth on the outside of trees, it will make for easy harvesting and an extra layer of defense for wooden fortifications. [Steelbark 5/7]

KOBOLDS

>>2059312

BEGRAVEN REUS

Many giants do not want to give up their proprietary secrets, or feign ignorance. The sovereign has government contracts dropped from unwilling craftsman in order to refresh their memories. [Primary Mathematical Principles 5/20]

Careful progression results in tremendous gains for the Reus as they uncover a stable pocket of magma. Extra blast tunnels are constructed to contain any swell while investigations continue. Shiny, clear-looking gemstones (read: diamonds) dot the roof of the cavern, but reliable extraction may prove difficult. Other resources are closer at hand...[Deep Tunnels 10/10], [resource: coal], [resource: magma], [+7 construction], [+3 mining], [stability: Rejoice!]

DWARVES

In a twist of irony, the dwarves return to water in perfecting their new engines, though for new purpose: coolant. [Mana Engines 20/25]

The Iron Laws are finally set in stone - though the master copy held by the king is indeed forged in iron. [The Iron Laws 15/15],[+5 tactics],[+5 logistics],[+9 warriors REPLACES +4 anvil warriors]

[Anvil Warriors] - In combat, roll an extra die and add 1/2 the value to your combat total.

Though insular by nature, Dwarves recognize the value of trade, as well as that of their finished goods. Subsidies are set aside for ambitious merchants to bring goods to foreign markets. [+5 economy]

>>2061863

LACHSTAGEN

Even the Lachstagen are impressed by the scale of the big, beautiful wall. It's not only aesthetically pleasing, but highly functional. Xenophobes and dopeheads alike are pleased with this wonder of Lachstagen society.

[Big Wall 15/15], [+10 construction], [+10 architecture], [+5 culture]

[Big Beautiful Door] - Incoming cultural influence is halved (rounded down)

Meanwhile, the green rooms improve Lachstagen society by providing a safe (and secluded) place to get high, while everyone else picks up the slack. Lazy bums. [Green Rooms], [+15 culture], [+5 architecture]

NOTE: You cannot come to someone's defense on the same turn they are attacked. I put your 100s into your projects instead, giving you extra bonus points.

Work on the national program for mandatory service continues. [Military Citizenship 11/15]

>>2062117

FAUNS

The explorers use their rabbit-form to evade the effect of the Lillies. As they adventure deeper into the valley, leaving the mists behind, they discover a dark, cracked land. Bones are everywhere - mostly skeletons of the rabbit creatures.

At the center of a deep depression is a solitary cave, surrounded by bones. The rotting stench of meat fills the air. A dark and powerful presence lingers inside the cavern...luckily, thee scouts don't alert it and retreat quietly to report their findings.

The Fauns attempt to bring the blessing of nature to dwarven-forged claymores. [+3 steel claymores are REPLACED by +8 blessed steel claymores]

The armies of the Faun nation are prepared for battle. [No preparation penalty for war actions next turn]
