Yeah, but she's more of a psychopomp than someone who actually causes death. More Hades than Thanatos, really. Um... If that makes sense.

Well, if I have Mewtwo now when I have reason to make him I'll have him later for when he can destroy a dwarven civilization and etc. It makes more sense to make Mewtwo now.

Oh right, since oni can technically be counted as demons, I am going to have Shinki create some at some point.

[up][up]Okay. Was there any particular reason for him to be shiny?

Well, it kind of makes sense, since the Riders from Kamen Rider Hibiki were oni.[lol] Oni who fight with the power of traditional Japanese music (and an electric guitar), but yeah.

Mewtwo is shiny because Armok likes minor changes like that. :P. The reason why the three Dittos are slightly different is the same.

So on top of all the massive changes he already wrought, he also flipped the "Shiny Y/N" gene for the hell of it?

Aye. Its the sort of thing Armok does. :P. If it bothers you I can add a few tentacles and make him spew poisonous gas constantly instead of making him shiny.

Which might actually be more appropriate.

Its a sign of respect towards Arceus that he didn't try to muddle his creations more.

I just thought that Mew's transformation would be better if it was mirroring Mewtwo exactly. Pokemon retain their shiny status after transforming, so a non-shiny Ditto or Mew will always transform into something non-shiny, and vice-versa.

Also, I'm only taking the Ditto. Mewtwo is Armok's thing.

I didn't mention it in my post, but how about from Earth the Apocrypha moon looks something like this?

I'm trying to strike a middle ground in-between renaissance-art angel and the more biblically sound kind. This'll be fun.

I think a certain Goddess with a penchant for Angels, good Angels, might get upset at Kefka's Angels. :P

Armok is going to rest for a bit but I just realized something odd. If Armok has a hand in the plantlife, little to none of it will be dangerous/poisonous. Its just something that doesn't happen in Dwarf Fortress, plantlife is generally benign with the exception of plant-based monsters.

Its rather unusual all things considering.

You know, I'm thinking of having Father re-create his "children" as seven angel/demon things that control the seven sins. Or something like that.

Sorta like his first experiment, also because everyone is creating their own species and I wanna do it toooo...

It'll play out for an interesting dynamic, for sure. Two radically separate aspects of the same creature, battling each-other in the face of demons and eldritch squiddies, all the earth creatures caught in the middle? Not bad.

The thing is, with no big mission for them to do, Father will just let them lounge around as the first beings of this world. And the thing is, while it's obvious Gluttony will just find stuff to eat and Envy will terrorize humans, having the freedom to do whatever he wants, it's obvious Greed is going to try and get into the pantheon of gods... or not.

I dunno. It's just an idea. I just really want to see what you guys think about it.

Krezznorg, meanwhile, is going to have the insanely durable orcs living in deserts, the tundra, air pockets under the seafloor, caves far underground, and the edges of volcanoes. and if someone messes with them, well... their god, before he ascended, could wield a pirate ship better than a trained fighter could wield a sword.

Minotaurs of Krynn get islands, since they're swashbucklers.

I'm waiting for Shinki to answer Father's question before he creates the homunculi once more...

Due to me being on a short trip, I'll only be able to post on Sunday. Sorry! tongue
