I'm already liking the synergy between "exotic furs" and "seals." :P

Seems like I will be helping to guide our third civilization.

I'm eager to see what each of you has come up with, and to seeing how many players factions we might end up with before beginning play.

The map looks great!

I see six units, three armies and three heroes but contrast is poor and I can't read the resources on the map.

Oh and greetings all.

Greetings everyone.

Looks like we have an eclectic group of characters and cultures so far. It  should be interesting.

Pleased to be here. Have we any clue where we are all starting? Wondering who my neighbors are.

No clue yet, although I am interested to see our sheets.

Out of curiosity, are the Frost Elves also Nomadic?

Frost elves are horse type nomads, yeah. I am borrowing from native america, sammi, and a few other cultures very very VERY loosely.

Hi all,

I'll be playing the city-state of Bex, builders and traders who prefer the safety and comfort of cities over the wilderness.

Hopefully can forge a great trade network with Moss Rock, as better to make money together, than lose money opposing one another.

I've asked for a particular location because there are few desert Islands on the map.  I don't know whether I'll get that place yet. We'll see.

I imagine we'll be close to Moss Rock.

The gm has been around, developing things. But lately I can't get them to take a moment to talk to me about the game. They seem caught up in their own head and bubble right now. So I don't know where I'll be starting yet as there are forests all over.

However, as for inspiration I've unashamedly drawn inspiration from black clover and it's forest of witches. Although have tweaked it to become my own creation.

Our beloved GM posted substantially in the Argentos game today so they'm doing what they need to do.  They'll be with us when they'm ready.

Hey all! Just arrived.

Looking forward to getting started.

I was also originally going to play a bunch of elfy fey forest people, but I didn't want to crowd the field, so instead I settled on possibly-a-little-bit-communist paladins :D

Ah... no doubt you are good.  We hold beauty to be the most sacred of all things, rather than goodness or evil, order or chaos.  (Although a certain degree of both order and chaos is needed because in the end, beauty is stochastic).

Devout urbanite elven types who worship the sun and the moon(s) here.

Glad to see others who see the wisdom of urbanisation!

In view of the propensity to trade among all of us, I have decided to alter my Traders attribute and replace it with Diverse.

I'm surprised you haven't got KNOWLEDGEABLE as a domain, wanting to find scholars, and building a big library.

Welcome Radiant.

I was also assuming you had Knowledge Insula, given your write up. Also no Trade  Specialty here for the Moss Rock.

How many of us took Nature?

No... my library is going to be beautiful and quite possibly worthless... except that Beauty attracts Bards, and Bards bring knowledge.

When we are lost beneath the sand and the sea, myths shall arise, carried by wind and song, suggesting we possessed all sorts of magical and scientific knowledge.

Hah! I like it.

Like if the Library at Alexandria had actually just been a big art gallery.

We are getting there, I plan to have this running next week!

Means all weekend to think about what my first turn might be.

Likely similar to others, with diplomatic actions with all the players, investing in infrastructure, maybe some military.

All depending on heroes, abilities, any nearby NPC factions & monsters, and so on.

As for the library of art, I'm imagining the Louve or Hermitage.

I was thinking both, with the British Museum and the Guggenheim to add to it.  It won't actually BE that big, but I was thinking of it.

Greetings everyone!

The elven/undead nation of Luna Doreith will be chilling in the forests.
