Behold the WIZARD MOON, supported by chained Gravity Elementals that conveniently nullify its tidal effects on the planet and allow it to be capable of independent motion.

Feast your eyes on NEDUBAL THE PRISMATIC, HIGH NEBULAR GOD. After receiving a startling report from his gaseous servants three hundred thousand years ago, he has redirected his harmful electromagnetic emissions to a nearby golem world, where they are thankful for the extra power source.

Increase your magnification and gaze upon the surface of MAXIMUM IV, THE WONDER-PLANET. Its magical soul-core, forged through centuries of unceasing wizard battles, exudes a morphic field that locks all of its subsidiary worlds into a close approximation of its own atmospheric and surface conditions. It is a creator-god in planet form, capturing wayward asteroids and comets and spinning them into lifegiving biospheres.

Now, isn't a nebula just a collection of gasses, mostly hydrogen, that are lit up by local stars?
Also, are we assuming the world being played in is not a plane, but a planet?
Also, if the moons were small/far enough, they wouldn't necessarily have that big of an impact on the tides.

actually op two would most definitely fuck with the tidal system but in no way make the planet "uninhabitable".

Two moons can actually cause the planet to be a target in the search for life. This is because of a phenomena called "tidal locking" which, in laymans terms, means that the rapid motion of the tides heats the core of the planet providing the right temperature for life.

The planets would likely have very volatile tides however and life would likely adapt to this. I would imagine it would look something like Kamino

>fantasy world has two moons

Moons mass pending. Observations on other planets do not suggest multiple moons forcing super-storms ad nausium.

>fantasy world has nebula visible in night sky
>implying being that close to the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the nebula would permit life to evolve
implying it wouldn't hyper accelerate evolution. Ergo, evolutions parameters are still unknown to us, and life's origins are still a worked theory.

>fantasy world orbits larger planet
>implying it wouldn't have seasonal variation vastly different to that which exists on earth.
Earths seasons are not a constant. See the artics & tropics. Seasons are minor adjustments, where the sun's altered angle has little impact on weather. Tropics have life yo.

But that's the science nerd in me.

>>22955886
could be with a little plot magic.
Most tidally locked planets would likely have much too violent tides for conventional sailing craft to get anywhere.
Think of the planet in almost constant storm mode. If the weather isn't actually storming the tides would more less behave as if it were (if that makes sense)
>>
>>22955487
Um, you're probably trolling or whatever, but for the benefit of innocent passers-by:
>fantasy world has two moons
>implying this wouldn't screw with the tidal system and therefore make the planet uninhabitable
I don't know why you think a more complicated tidal system would automatically make the world uninhabitable. It would likely experience higher peak tides (when both moons are aligned, so to speak), but only if they were also of large mass and relatively close to the planet. Even in the worst-case scenario, though, it'd hardly be uninhabitable - you'd just need to be adapted to deal with it.

>fantasy world has nebula visible in night sky
>implying being that close to the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the nebula would permit life to evolve
There's a little truth to this, in that a strongly-visible nebula probably means you're experiencing higher radiation, but compared to the radiation coming off the sun (and there's a lot of it) you're only looking at marginal differences. And with a stronger magnetic shielding effect (say, a core that's more ferrous, or rotates faster than our own), you could deal with something even worse.

>fantasy world orbits larger planet
>implying it wouldn't have seasonal variation vastly different to that which exists on earth
This one actually would make a pretty huge difference. Complaining about seasonal variations is sort of the least of your worries.

Haaang on a tic, 1) those nebula are far too sparse to do much of anything before they become stars, those photos you see whenever you Google 'nebula' are doctored to look even moderately interesting.
And 2) >implying vastly different seasons isn't great flavor

>Implying you don't have two moons -well, one moon, three-odd fairly large moon chunks and an asteroid belt- just as a joke about every fantasy world having two moons


22955886

>>22956041
Probably, physics takes a holiday only when you're like the length of the Earth from the hole. Gravity still exists in normal amounts before the event horizon.
It's just that black holes live very short lives in comparison to other stars(can't cite that, but they ARE spending a lot of energy for being so tiny) and they actually DO send out radiation: it's gamma and x-rays rather than light. Not ideal a place to settle.

>>22956227
>1) those nebula are far too sparse to do much of anything before they become stars
If a nebula is 'lit' it's because somewhere within in lurks a pulsar, which is giving off enough light and radiation to make nebula gas glow as far off as one light year.

The nebula isn't radioactive, but the pulsar sure as fuck is.
>>
>>22956447

>>
>>22956370
The planet could be of some distance from the star and 'tidally locked' - the planet orbits the star at the same rate it rotates, meaning that one year and one day are roughly equal. As such one side of the planet constantly faces the sun, the other is constantly facing away.

Tidally locked planets are real, but the only habitable areas are generally the 'twilight' band between full daylight and full night.

The MAXIMUM system is a really neat place. Many billions of years ago, as the story goes, a new bit of plasma, ejected from its stellar nursery, wound up in a cosmological neighborhood that it really had no business even thinking about. This place was THE NEBULAR COURT, a zone of space that was home to many ancient, gaseous entities that prided themselves on being decentralized drifters, unlike those ever-too-bright, upstart things that called themselves stars. The little ejectee had wandered into a retirement home.

Out of its element, cut off from its heritage, and unable to reach its fellows through the mass of rumbling, grumbling gas that surrounded it, the barely-sentient plasma globe named itself THE LONELY STAR. And after a million years of being alternately ignored and gently chastised by the old but mostly soft denizens of THE NEBULAR COURT, the little one began to cry. Its hot, burning tears exploded from its surface in all directions, briefly brushing the light-years-long bulk of the resting nebulas.

It was then that TARDOSAN THE WIDESPREAD, NEBULAR GOD, took pity on the little star. For TARDOSAN was the softest of the bunch, affectionately called GRANDFATHER NEBULA by the proper children, and OLD FART by the billowing dropouts, who hung around unsavory dark matter characters and unashamedly regarded becoming a black hole as a legitimate career choice.

TARDOSAN THE WIDESPREAD, in his great wisdom, convinced the others to do something unthinkable.

>>
>>22957171
For a brief moment, THE LONELY STAR felt very intense confusion as its tears were swept away. This gave way to photosphere-deafening terror as it felt itself being surrounded. From all directions, the nebular gases were closing in, and its frantic plasma emissions were somehow being blocked and swept away, despite all of this being very impossible.

But in this moment of absurdity, the voice of TARDOSAN THE WIDESPREAD, who still knew the language of the first stars, reached the little orphan, and told it not to worry. The nebular gases encroached from the space around, pouring down on the star without ceasing. Without really understanding what was going on, it began to grow, its fusion process fed by a steadily increasing amount of fuel.

Before long, THE LONELY STAR had increased to truly significant size, and its natural lifespan had increased by more than ten billion years. At TARDOSAN's command, the nebulas, having lost a negligible portion of their mass, held off, and fell silent as they retreated back into the court.

It was then that TARDOSAN gave the now-grown star his second gift. From his collection of hard matter, a rocky body of unknown parentage shot out and was captured by the star, becoming its first satellite. At this, the bright, thankful sphere cast of its old name, taking instead the moniker MAXIMUM, for its gratitude was as great as its size.

And MAXIMUM cherished its satellite for five hundred million years, and the nebulas with it.
>>
>>22957435
As the ancient stars outside THE NEBULAR COURT exploded gracelessly, they created new and interesting bits of solid matter, which TARDOSAN drew to himself in fascination. For a long, long time, he passed many of these on to MAXIMUM, and they began to interact and collide with each other, forming a system. And MAXIMUM tended his garden of rocks contentedly.

A significant amount of time later, the large and relatively new fourth planet in the system began to develop something neither MAXIMUM nor THE NEBULAR COURT understood. Life, in packages so small and so quickly-changing that they could scarcely be said to have existed at all.

No. That's only true if the Black Hole is microscope. Most Black Holes will survive millions and millions of years after the rest of the matter of the universe will be already gone. With time, the Black Hole will disintegrate as result of Hawkin's radiation but this rate is inversely proportional to the size of the Black Hole.

>fantasy world has nebula visible in night sky

>fantasy world orbits larger planet
My fantasy world(moon) dosen't have and solid months. Each month varies from hot to cold, but neither fast enough to make a good winter or summer condition. It's mostly in a flux state and the calendar is based on the month not the year.

>>22955853
Would the bigger planet reflect light similar to how the moon does? I mean Im tying with the idea now. Already I have in place on my system where night gets progessively longer as the day goes on since it orbits a gas giant and is a moon, culminating with a full day eclipse every month, but how dark would the the eclipse actually be? Also would there be times when the gas giant reflects all the light in the time when the moon is directly between the gas giant and the sun?
>>
>>22957632
It was a glorious unknown, beyond nebular imagination. Non-cosmological life, so minuscule that a being which spanned light-years had trouble even believing it could exist. THE NEBULAR COURT was once again engulfed in speculation, as even the wisdom of TARDOSAN failed to provide any agreeable answers to the question of SMALL LIFE.

MAXIMUM, to his credit, was overjoyed that something new was growing in his garden. Deep within THE NEBULAR COURT, protected by the bodies of powerful galactic gods, his solar system was not only safe, but probably unknown to anyone outside. It was a good place to tend the little things, whatever they were. So the star watched, and the nebulas watched, as bits of orange and green began to speckle the fourth planet.

In passing through and being handled by TARDOSAN, all the unremarkable bits of rock and metal that orbited MAXIMUM had become quite magical. Their cores shone with ethereal force, and their surfaces rippled with arcane power. Though the magic of the fourth world was weak and untempered, it fueled the growing, changing life on its skin, and made it hardy.

For millions of years, the fourth world developed in silence. Its surface cooled noticeably, and its atmosphere thickened. THE LONG RAINS, imbued with magical power, covered it with oceans. Its life thrived in every condition and every environment, everywhere.

And MAXIMUM named it THE WONDER-PLANET, and the nebulas thought it a good name.
>>
>>22961826
While the stars of the galaxy had their wars and peace talks and backstabbed each other with complete freedom, THE NEBULAR COURT sat consumed with the system at its heart, like a shut-in with unlimited free internet. There was nothing more interesting than this, the development of SMALL LIFE, which experienced a million lifetimes in the time it took a nebula to have a single thought. THE WONDER-PLANET had now been covered with little things for a long time, and it spun in the shimmering dark as a blue-green marble, dusted with fluffy white clouds.

On the surface, beneath the blazing grace of MAXIMUM, something crawled. It had two arms, and two legs, and a heart and mind full of magic. It was the old magic of the nebulas, swimming within the planet and through it. It was deep power, a will to act, to shape, to create. The being was alone, and in its loneliness it cried out, and rose. In its loneliness it began to sing.

And MAXIMUM heard its song.

The magnificent globe of brilliance that had once called itself THE LONELY STAR was moved to tears for the second time. Deep in its fusion heart, it felt the voice of this new being, so insignificant in size, yet so mighty in spirit. MAXIMUM, memory flooded with gratitude for the nebulas, called down to the surface of THE WONDER-PLANET, and sang.

And the atmosphere began to shine with the ribbons of its song, and the lonely living thing bowed down to the star.
>>
>>22962120
Across the empty depth of space, enclosed by nebulas and shrouded by splintered starlight, MAXIMUM spoke. Threads of magic carried its meaning to the fourth planet, where a small thing knelt on a carpet of green grass before a cloudless sky, filling with auroras.

MAXIMUM offered the little one what the nebulas had given it. Great size and longevity, eclipsing its peers. The little one would be elevated to stand over the things called mountains, and it would live for as long as the planet turned. But the little one did not accept.

MAXIMUM then offered the little one what TARDOSAN had given it. A garden to tend, and to protect, and to watch as it grew. The promise of life in the garden, to mirror that which now covered THE WONDER-PLANET. But the little one did not accept.

For a time, MAXIMUM thought. And as it observed the beings that surrounded it, the gaseous sheets that ringed it, the star saw the twinkling of others. It saw the light of those it no longer knew. And so it turned back to the little one, and sang one final offer.

Companions, with which to share in the beauty and majesty of life. The little one accepted immediately, without hesitation.

So MAXIMUM, though he did not know how he did so, sought the bonds of magic that tied the little one to the fourth planet, and burned his power into them. And he named the little one LIFESINGER, for he would sing life like his own into being across the whole world. And the nebulas thought this a good name.
>>
>>22962305
I like this LIFESINGER person. S/he sounds like a wise and virtuous sort.
>>
>>22955525

I don't know about "dead", but it never made sense to me that any fantasy world where magic was a genetic trait - that is, the Harry Potter model where wizards have bloodlines - that magic bloodlines aren't also ROYAL bloodlines. Because they FUCKING WOULD BE.
>>
>>22962305
So began the walk of the LIFESINGER. The contract of power with the god-star had blessed him with longevity, and the planet had become his garden. For an age he walked across the continents, singing without ceasing. And he sang into being all the races, some like him and some not. And the races that were sung were spread across the land and sea, and they lived with the plants and animals.

But the LIFESINGER was not satisfied with his companions, for they themselves could not sing. The primal magic of THE WONDER-PLANET was denied them, and they could not create with it, nor change with it. And they acted in the manner of all other life, living, breathing, and dying, though they shared the LIFESINGER's intelligence.

MAXIMUM did not understand. The LIFESINGER's creations were incomplete. They could not accept the star-god's power, or harness the threads of the planet's magic. They could not use arcane power, but instead used their limbs to change their environment, like all other life save for the empowered little one.

The LIFESINGER was distraught. Was this not his purpose? Was this not who he was? MAXIMUM watched in horror as the little one turned his song inward, and ceased to sing life into being. Instead, he sang change. He sang so brightly that his body perished, and the threads of magic that were within him exploded outward. He spread the tapestry of his song across all intelligent life, and weaved the magic of his life in them.

MAXIMUM wept.
>>
>>22962650
Ooooohhh this is getting good.

I mean better.
>>
>>22962650
In shock, MAXIMUM stretched his will to the very surface of the planet, grasping the body of the LIFESINGER with manifested hands. But the god was too late. His song had stopped. The first soul, the first consciousness and intelligence to grace the planet, had sacrificed itself in a moment of grief. It had planted a tiny part of itself in every intelligent living thing, so that they could sing.

The planet grew dark as MAXIMUM hid himself. He took the empty body of the LIFESINGER, and buried it in a nameless moon, and wept for him. And the nebulas could not console the star. But TARDOSAN, with one word, convinced the god to return his light to the planet, so that the life that had been sung into being would not perish because of his sadness.

In the dark and the cold of the first eclipse, the landbound races chose their paths. Some retreated underground, where the heat of the planet would keep them alive. Some changed themselves to survive the new surface conditions, as by growing fur. But the most stubborn of the races did not sing. In the dark and the cold, driven to desperation and death, they mastered fire.

And when MAXIMUM turned his face to the planet once again, he saw that the dark side was not black, as it had been before. Here and there, glimmering pleasantly, were tiny suns.

MAXIMUM saw what he had done, and grew silent. He watched the planet without words or songs, and without any exertion of will. But he kept the LIFESINGER's tomb close to him.
>>
>>22962950
Time passed, and the races diverged still further. They splintered and spread, rarely interbreeding. In time their forms became set, as the magic of the LIFESINGER faded, and change became more difficult. But the planet was still strong, and the arcane energy within it could still be sought. As their innate power faded, the races slowly learned to use other sources, bolstering their depleted will.

A sliver of the LIFESINGER's might remained in all the races, but as more and more effort was required to harness magic, specialized magic users emerged. No longer could one being sing all songs. Most could sing none, and some sang many. But there was one race which never sang, and turned from magic with great anger.

This race, which had first mastered fire, was strong against magic. The LIFESINGER's might turned to armor within them, and their souls grew ever more stubborn. The songs of other races broke against their will, though they had no songs of their own. Wherever they went, they spread their fire. And they became a scourge to the other races, who opposed them at every turn.

MAXIMUM saw this, and was grieved. There was strife on the planet, and war. Because of the darkness in which he hid himself, the races which the LIFESINGER had sung were now in conflict. But he remained silent.

The nebulas saw the war on the planet, and were reminded of the stars, which battled in the galaxy. And they looked upon MAXIMUM differently.

So we have come to the ancient age of war, when the progenitors of all thinking life soaked the planet in blood. MAXIMUM is silent in grief, and the nebulas, even TARDOSAN, do not interfere.

You can decide for yourselves how it goes from here, or whether you want to change anything. It's in /tg/'s hands now.

It's not as though the fantasy world originally had only one moon and a second one just appeared out of nowhere. How can it fuck up the tides if it existed before the tides did?

Do you even astronomy?
>This isn't even problematic.

>implying being that close to the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the nebula would permit life to evolve

Do you even astronomy/geology?
>A sufficiently effective geomagnetic core could solve this problem in combination with relatively robust life forms.

>fantasy world orbits larger planet
>implying it wouldn't have seasonal variation vastly different to that which exists on earth

Granted.

It depends on how they were formed, how they acted in conjecture to our moon, and how that would effect space travel. also, how do you add the (you) tag?

I am the Anon you're talking to, and I honestly have no idea what you're talking about.

Might be something new moot added. I've noticed that when someone quotes you, it adds (you) to the part of the post that references your post.
>>
>>22967486
Are you using a not-vanilla layout? Because I don't see anything with a (you) on it. Maybe it's because I'm on a college campus and my IP address is constantly changing...
