Snake Report: Life as a False God, Day 9/Lost in the Surface World, Day 1
[TOXIC] Toxic Flesh. Dangerous if consumed.
[Unique Traits] are things I haven't ever really considered much until after the fact.
I mean, sure- I read them, but I guess I never really thought them through.
Never in my mind did I consider getting eaten whole a serious method for achieving victory.
As they saying goes though: A win's a win.
The bird wretched me up at an altitude of a few thousand feet. I was showered like a 747 dumping on a fly-over state, surrounded by odds and ends- bits of bones and droplets of Bird-stomach-related things.
It's raining snakes, hallelujah
I guess owl-monsters in this world can cough up more than just pellets, not that it really mattered. Apparently, by my actions of surviving on a diet of almost nothing but poisonous Mushrooms and mana-crystals, I've gone and made myself a really unpleasant meal for would be predators. So unpleasant that after coughing me back up, the Giant Owl went and died.
How do I know for sure?
[Northern Forest Guardian - Legendary Owl Slain: 3,000 Points]
Hisss... A very encouraging message to receive, if not for the other circumstances requiring my attention.
[EXTREMELY TOXIC: UNLOCKED!] Extremely Toxic Flesh. Fatal if consumed.
Ah, there's another one.
Off in the yonder distance of the horizon, I watched its body plunge lifeless through a canopy of giant trees with a shower of feathers and tree branches before disappearing from my sight. I might have taken a bit of satisfaction in this, if I didn't promptly follow-suit by doing much of the same.
"SMACK"
A shower of leaves and a shower of pain.
"CRACK!" A branch, "CRASH" Another branch.
"SMACK."
"THUD."
It's important to stick the landing with at least a portion of your body unbroken, but if I could see my health bar, I think there's a very high probability it might be in the red. If I could even lift my head to check, I imagine I might seem more like the letter "Z" than any living snake has a right to.
Hisss...
Active, passive, magical Healing or not: this might be time to take a breather.

Maker of Fire
On a world where magic kept civilization firmly in the bronze age, the Gods dropped an accountant and a mining engineer to start a political and industrial revolution. They wanted enlightened governance and a fast track to the iron age. They got indoor plumbing, paper airplanes, a cranky queen, and one very grumpy prophet. Dramatis Personae Aylem was a bookkeeping student when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as the greatest mage ever known, born into the ruling class of gigantic, magic-wielding humans. The Gods expect her to conquer the world and introduce double-entry accounting. Though Queen and numerical reformer, world conquest is stalled because everyone is scared of her and she doesn't like war. Emily was a retired engineer when she died. The Gods reincarnated her as one of the enslaved class of small, magicless humans. The Gods expect her to drag the world out of the bronze age. Though she's already recreated matches and wrought iron, introducing technology isn't going well because she was born a slave (oops) and having escaped, wants nothing to do with so-called "civilization." Asgotl was a whale when he died. The Gods reincarnated him as a griffin and expect him to have the same role he played in his previous life: to keep a reluctant prophet from walking off the job. If only they had remembered to tell him about it. Revised update schedule will be once a week on Saturdays, noonish Mountain Time (in North America)

Rise
20 years have passed since the Chaos Energy Quake rippled through the Milky Way Galaxy. During the year-long Quake, Chaos Energy became unusable, rendering much of the galaxy’s technology useless, and preventing Chaotics – beings who possess supernatural abilities – from using their powers. The galaxy has since moved on from the Quake, but to this day no one knows what could have caused it. The only broadly possible hints lie with the woefully few Chaotics born during the Quake, such as the seven Chaotics born on the world of Nimalia, homeworld of the Nimalian Territories. The other galactic civilizations see little correlation between the Quake and those born during it, but now that the seven have reached the age of 20, some Nimalians think they may be able to finally learn exactly what caused the galactic disruption two decades ago…
