Yawn.

"...just a few more centuries, mom..."

Go back to sleep.

You are to be reborn into this realm once again; first however, from which tribe did you hail? It is hard to remember after all this time...

Kepo: The largest and strongest, the mud people are strong builders. Mud clover grows in their territory, and their favorite food is ferns

Jinasaa: The agile Jinasaa are creatures of the night that favor movement and grow ferns. They crave Wild Onion more than any other food

The'ootah: The heretic bark people are vicious and take what they need, exceling in raiding. The grow Wild Onions and favor Mud Clovers to all other food

Juhzu: Cleaved from the eath itself, the people of stone focus their efforts into gathering and making raw meterials. They posses Curly Grass but prefer to eat River Leaf

Pekatsoo: Grown among the moss under the great tree the leaf people are strongest at producing food and people. The moss they grow is valuable, but their hearts and stomachs are only truely saited by Curly Grass

Quch: Small and wet the rain hardly bothers these denizens of the river. Their small fingers excel at crafting like no other, and the grow the coveted river grass. However, their favored dish is the moss of the great tree grown by the Pekatsoo

Eh, I pick quch

Quch

Juhzu

Ah yes, I remember now, it was the Quch...

As you take your physical form, you can immediately the trouble in the air. Something is coming. Something BIG

It's hard to tell exactly how far away it is- you unsure of the exact date it will hit;
750 Days? Easy Difficulty
500 Days? Norm Difficulty
375 days? Hard Difficulty

Normal or hard difficulty will be fine by me, lean towards normal though

Easy. Yep, I'm a filthy casual.

Hard. Go big or go home!

HARD LIKE A DWAYNE JOHNSON!

Normal should be fine.

Normal. Have some time to do sidequests.

Yeah let's go with medium. Always the safe.

Yes, 500 days, that sounds right. We have a little over 1 year then to save these people. Before we get to work though, we have to identify what we're working with and craft our Avatar

Worship ("Monuments" would require dumping lots of resources and workforce into what would ultimately become a hard cap on faith gain. And "Battle" would be too risky and also resource-heavy to be reliable)

Pious Followers (Climate is unreliable, and would ultimately impede on building a world-conquering evil emp... ahem, I mean, a climatically diverse global superpower. And as for Missionaries, again, see Village/Reputation)

A dice roll shall determine who has seen our path forward-

be aware LittleBeast >>675774 that our people cannot possibly be so happy- you may have to re-arrange your allotment

>>675796 Your choices are not unviable but be aware your people will not nessicarily recognize your avatar as an extension of your power and as such a lack of charm may harm us in convincing our own villagers of our divine power. We also cannot control our people individually, only affect them indirectly, so consider that before deciding fully on a path.

As for climate- each season has a chance for types of weather- hot is most likely in the summer, rain in the spring, cold in the winter, and fog in fall, which will make you more powerful in a specific season but weaker the rest of the year.

after these clarifications, please either confirm or edit your suggestions

>>675801
Okay, thanks for the clarification. So our first goal would be to convince our own subjects to obey our ord-- ahem, I mean, heed our words of wisdom. Fair enough.

Then my suggestion would warrant a bit of rearrangement:

Pop = 5
Food = 15
Happiness = 20
Piety = 25
Reputation = 0
Resources = 7

Power = 2
Deftness = 10
Vitality = 10
Wits = 15
Aura = 15
Charm = 20

Worship

Pious Followers

>>675801
Winter - the Quch are amphibious, so the cold is their greatest foe while near the rivers. Being capable of protecting them during this time will help greatly.

I'll keep choices the same.

>>675801
Oh, missed that. Well, just transfer that extra point to faith, then.

And since charm is more important than I thought, it can have three of the vit points.

Also, I'm going to vote for whichever climate faith lines up with the season it'll be when our timer is up, rather than missionaries.

Dice 1d4

You pour a fraction of your energy into a vessal, an "Avatar" if you will. This will allow you to interact with other villagers and affect the mortal coil more directly. Your avatar can be a divine mouth piece, or direct link to your people to help them and garner faith. Theyv may have trouble believing you are a true mouthpeice of the gods without a miracle or two to back it up though.

It seems Kome has seen the way forward.

Pop = 21
Food = 600 units ~ 2 weeks
Happiness = 35%
Piety = 10 faith gained per day
Reputation = 16% chance to make a good impression
Resources =
10 Dirt Clods
10 Bark
10 Twigs
10 Stone
10 Plant Matter
No rare materials

Power = 13
Deftness = 10
Vitality = 9
Wits = 12
Aura = 14
Charm = 14

Monuments
Ice Worship

Your people are food focused, pray to you via monuments and honor cold above all else. For this you have unlocked the ability to preform the following Miracles:

Blessed Harvest - 30 faith: All food production buildings gain +1 to food produced this week
Empower - 30 faith: Empower a building to gain double the happiness bouns for a week
Heat Sinks - 30 faith: All miracles preformed during the next cold spell cost 50% less

Now it is time for you to guide your people to salvation. Your people will automatically build, craft, harvest, deal with other villages, and garner faith. However it will not be enough for them to ascend. You must feed them knowledge unlocked via faith until they can ultimately ascend. It will cost roughly 15000 faith to ascend. You will have to guide them in the right direction and create a place of power for your avatar to direct your villagers more precisely. Keep in mind however they may not recognize you as the mouth peice of a god- an Avatar has walked amoung them since before the Great Drought. For now, decide what you would like to do:

1: Interact with Villagers
2: harvest ___________ resource
3: Craft/build ________
4: Leave the village to ___________
5: listen to prayers
6: ________

First up, build some irrigation plots. Dig across the river bank into relatively organized streams to maximize the area-spread of the river, thereby growing more river leaf. Use the town's resources to reinforce the plots so that the streams don't cave in over time, as well as a few bridges so that they can walk across.

Next, build some shelter around the river streams. Having residential built around miniature islands and close to any food source will increase their safety while ensuring that they have a backup source of food.

Earn your people's trust by storing a fair amount of food for the winter, and then harvest piety during the cold. Trade for moss if you have the time.

>>676970
Gotta start by proving ourselves, right? Interact with the villagers, see what they want and need. I mean sure we could do that by listening to prayers too but NAH.
