The world is a mutable, malleable thing. In the immeasurable vastness of the Ocean, tiny pinpricks of Something burst into being, only to vanish. Without a stabilizing presence, they are hopeless against the crashing waves of Nothing. Without Gods, Something has no hope. Gods float above the Ocean, droplets of dew against its immensity. Without worship, they perish, snuffed out. Small crumbs of Something draw countless Gods, feeding on eachother and on the life they nourish with their presence. All are doomed to return to the Ocean, but for a time they grow strong and fat, and it is enough. Without Something, the Gods have no hope. Once, there was a place called Somewhere. A land where Ages of Gods soared over the land, reshaping it to their will - until the People they raised were finally strong enough to stand on their own, to push the old Gods aside, and cast off into the Ocean themselves. Somewhere has survived. Somewhere is safe. … This isn’t Somewhere. This is Nowhere. Something - the Prime Material - is in short supply. It has collected here in enough supply to support life, but not forever. Inevitably, bit by bit, the world will collapse. But not yet. First, the Gods will have a playground, a place where they may touch and shape the world. THE PEOPLE MISSED YOU posted:Welcome back. In The Fragile Gods of Nowhere, you take the form of a God, shaping and manipulating the world as you see fit. This is a vastly multiplayer game, where any number of people can play - but only a few (at a time) have the starring role as Gods. For those unfamiliar with the game, or who have forgotten in the years since we last played, here’s the short form: this is a game of several Ages, and in each Age several Gods will rise and meddle with the creatures of the world before vanishing and allowing the next crop in to play. Five Gods descend on Nowhere, batting aside all pretenders to their thrones, erecting barriers around their precious land. Those trapped outside languish in the harsh Ocean, only able to affect the land with Wispy fragments of their power. The Gods set down to work upon this land, to make it their own - and to save themselves. Even with this Somewhere, they will one day die - but to die on the land, to sink into it and strengthen it and become it... that is worth fighting for. Behold Nowhere, in its twin glories. THIS IS NOWHERE posted:Right, that's Nowhere! A little odd, eh? Nowhere is a pair of land masses, initially separate, called Oneder and Twomb. Consider them planetoids, though from your Godly perspective they may as well be flat sheets! People and things on one of them can only interact with stuff on the same mass… unless you change that somehow with Godly power. You’d better roll well, though, or else you’ll get some weird problems. ONE LAST THING posted:We have a Discord for this and other games here, but I suggest posting comments and and whatnot in this thread directly - last time several off-the-cuff comments got brought into the game and there were times where the Gods interacted with the Wisps directly. Gives a different sort of vibe, you know? Dog Kisser fucked around with this message at 18:46 on Mar 15, 2024 |

[Orokos willing]] [So instead I got y'all nice folks these boxes inside some bigger boxes and also another box. Don't you wonder what's in them?] What's in the Box? posted:A crucial factor: I want to avoid Materials taken in past games, as well as stuff conceptually similar to it. So: no Silver, Wat(snip)... anything that's shown up in a Fragile-like. WHAT COULD IT BE? posted:
Oops! Surprise was discovered as a Material in Fragile Gods of Somewhere and may therefore Ineligible to be a Material in this brave new Nowhere! UnCO3 might want to pick a less startling vote or get DK to clarify whether a surprise Surprise appearance counts! Other Materials of similar nature are Potato and Chocolate!
