>>97286867>TQNot really. I like to imagine that any human who saw it just wouldn't get why it's so addicting.

>>97287295"What is this? Cataan?"
>>97286867>TQSure, though I think any depiction of them would be pretty inevitably unsatisfactory. I personally like to think of them as some kind of a competitive omnipotent creator simulator where players create a (not real) universe, with even the most fundamental laws of said universe being malleable, with each player trying to impose their own vision on that world and with who's on the lead being determined by who currently has the biggest impact on the simulated world.
>>97287416This is is a reinvention of Dunsany's pegana.
>>97287446Okay. That does not seem particularly important. Also reinvention of Pegana would be more just saying that Games of Divinity are just actually messing with Creation.
Honestly if you can't make artifacts you are completely inconsequential to the setting as a whole.
>>97286867>Ever wondered what the Games of Divinity are actually?Diplomacy is my best guess, with something like Mario Party coming in second. We know from canon sources (SotM and Yu Shan iirc) that it has turns, and that you can make individual moves within turns, and that someone else can be make your moves/turns for you if you give them over and it's possible to have that matter.>>97287366desu the new captcha's turned me off posting a couple times last thread.
>>97287580>Honestly if you can't make artifacts you are completely inconsequential to the setting as a whole.There are some other relevant things to the setting as a whole that you can do, they're just usually harder for the relevant specialties to do than Craft making artifacts. Like, a sorcerer or thaumaturge making and publishing a new spell/ritual that solves some big problem the world is facing when it's used at scale is absolutely contributing. Those people who invented Summoning of the Harvest, Water From Stone, Infallible Messenger, Hero's Recovery, warding, how to geomantically bless places against pests and disease, and so on absolutely did a deed that changed how things work in Exalted on a wide scale. Without those kinds of spells being around the North and South would've been way more fucked than they are, the speed of word of mouth would be way worse, people would be diseased as hell and smell like shit, and there'd be much fewer potential miracles just around the corner for everyone in Creation.
>>97286867>tgyou ever read the elemist chronicles from animorphs? the simulations and manipulations in the book seem like the closest to what they might be. after all, what does a godly race of controllers and creators most enjoy? control and creation
