Cool, just got a notice from steam that this was starting. :D

>>26040556
Yay lets do this!

>>26040556

Brief Recap:

The counter-attack on Kaalun was successful! After much sneakery and just a bit of unorthodox luck, the raid succeeded with minimal casualties. The return party should arrive back in a few days.
~
A Queen Tunnel Worm attacked the Hive while the bulk of the inhabitants were assaulting Kaalun. Fortunately, it was lured into the Hatchery, where an intense mind-battle took place between it and Rozooll. The God-Eater prevailed after an exhaustive exchange and now controls the beast!
~
A stranger found himself in the Oasis. He was brought before the Queen and he introduced himself as Ronin the Wanderer, a blind elf. Despite his lack of regard for Rozooll's power, he was found invaluable in his magical knowledge and was invited to stay among the hive. He accepted, but on a few terms.

>Cont.

>>26040646

(Note: I removed shrub/hide sacs. They were pretty much functionless)

Ronin decides to hole up in the main chamber for now. Apparently he doesn't mind the lack of privacy too much.

once the warriors return, we should have the entire hive go into dedicated worship of us, all at once.

>>26040699

...oh and I forgot to fix the new population count, among other things. It'll be fixed in the next update.

>>26040699
E)Study magic

D)Continue all of our existing research

Have our high cultist lead and non working swarm in worship

>>26040699
B) Worship

E) Lets see what our blind guy can teach us.

>>26040699

With the farmland above recently repaired, harvest is back to it's usual productivity.
(+8.9 Units of food)
~
Deciding to waste no time in finding out what Ronin knows, Rozooll summons him to the hatchery for her tutoring. It turns out spells that don't directly pertain to the desert and/or mind control can be difficult, especially given the Insect's naturally negative disposition towards magic. He teaches her a few words, as well as some hand motions, and much progress is made. Ronin thinks that with a little more training, she'll learn a new spell.
~
Two Nomads are sent to scout out the desert, one back North, the other to the unexplored South. They return at sundown, unharmed, but the Nomad who travelled North reported finding a great deal of tracks. Though he had to return before being able to follow them.
~
Ronin is asked to help the Curious Ones develop a form of documentation. He replies, with no lack of honeyed snark, that a blind man wouldn't be able to offer much in the 'writing department'. Medinh, however, offers to take up this task.
~
The remaining members worship Rozooll, for her valiant defense of the Hive, as well as her power in dominating a Queen Tunnel Worm. She feels a great amount of pride and strength at such devoted worship. The rituals the humans have started to teach her children seem to somehow enhance this effect.

How big is the Hive at this point? Also where can I find the previous threads, if they are archived anywhere

D) Develop stronger warriors
E) Continue studying.

>>26041234
>>26041313

I say keep Studying Magic for one more turn before trying to replenish our numbers after the battle.

I also had an idea to create a sort of watch system, just to keep an eye on the surrounding area. We could dig long tunnels outwards in all directions, with an exit up into the desert to allow a spotter to pop up and observe easily. The tunnels would allow faster and safer travel as well as potential ambush points for attackers.

>E) Keep Studying
>F) Hive Improvement: Aforementioned Tunnel System

Update comin'

>>26041234
Wait so whats happening with the royal we brought in? Have we talked to the bitch yet and indoctrinate her?

If not do that and we go out and hunt for creatures to become a suitable mount of our warriors. It'll make scouting faster and may be able to cover longer distances too

>>26041313

Harvest brings back 8.7 Units of food
~
The Curious Ones studying agriculture find ways to improve land cultivation. Harvesting is improved, slightly.
~
The Queen meets with Ronin to resume learning magic. This session goes a bit smoother, despite some magical mishaps (scorch marks adorn the chamber), but Rozooll finally breaks ground and masters her first spell!
[Spell Learned: Firebolt!]
~
The remaining Curious Ones look into improving the Warriors' effectiveness. They find that a lot of the Warrior's equipment is of inferior quality. They set their minds to improve their smelting methods.
~
Discussion on a tunnel/lookout system is started. Some Rozoollim are still in favor of building The Spire in the Oasis. Further discussion may be needed.
~
The Legion should return from Kaalun next turn...

I'm pretty sure that the royal is either a king or a bishop we just called him a queen because that i was the warriors where referencing him too.

>>26041837
Lets explore the tunnel.

>>26041837
B) have our head cultist lead our hive in worship

D) continue research

E) continue our studies

eggs, we need eggs

find the creatures to our north

>>26041837
Let us lay some more eggs for the swarm

and make the hive bigger and stronger

>>26041837
B)idle workers worship
c) explore tunnel
D) continue research
E) continue magic study.

>>26041837
>B) Lets have a good old worshipping session to celebrate both our Queen's new spell and our victory
>D) Continue Research
>E) Having learned a new spell, I think we should cut back on the magic at least for the moment to lay more eggs, new larvae are the lifeblood of our hive.

As for the Spire, I havent heard of this/must be forgetting it. TBH it sounds like it might be a better idea than my tunnels.

Damn i need to leave sorry guys stuff came up

>>26041991
seeya

>>26041837
I think we're ready for eastcave guys. I'm sure there's cool stuff in there, and something big to eat. Maybe even make it a new hive since it's so large.

In that order

good day everybody, thouth this shit was dead, cool to se us rozollim gathered in worship of our queen

as usual, i will say, our op is a faggot that comes in late

>>26041837

With the new techniques in practice, harvest seems to yield a bit more edible material than before.
(+9.5 Units of food)
~
Satisfied in her magical knowledge, at least, for now, Rozooll resumes laying eggs. She lays a clutch of 12 eggs, however these eggs are different than before. They all have a strange, fleshy tone to them.
~
The Curious Ones keep at their work in improving their smelting methods. The process is ongoing, but they claim to be close to a breakthrough.
[-5 shiny ore chunks, -1 Flamestone]
The Curious One in charge of documentation is working hard with Medinh to derive and develop a language. It's hard work, but it's making progress.
~
Ronin seems to have an affinity for speaking in the Rozoolliim's tongue. He sits in the central chamber, with his Curious One assistant (whom he has taken to calling Zooks), imitating his clicks and chitters.
~
The Hive gathers in reverent worship of their Queen Rozooll. The ceremony is led by Medinh,and with her children in awe of her ability to learn and wield magic, they sing her name, dancing and (in the case of the Rozoolliim) clattering their shells. Rozooll feels a huge rush of energy...she reports that she feels...more fertile.
~
Without surplus Warriors, dispatch to the Tunnel could prove risky.
~
A Scavenger reports that he sees the Kaalun dispatch returning!

>Cont.

>>26042298

The large convoy makes its way over the dunes surrounding the Oasis and within a few hours, they make it to the Hive entrance. Despite some of the dispatch not making it back, most seem to be in good condition still. They come back with about 40 other humans.
According to one of the Warriors who returned, one is their 'Queen', whom they captured as tribute to Rozooll.

What shall be done with the people brought back from Kaalun? What shall be done with their 'Queen'?

>A). Bring the 'Queen' before Rozooll.
>B). Kill them all. It was thoughtful of her children to bring fresh meat back for the Hive...
>C). Write-In

>>26042440
C) mind rape their queen, then mind rape their closest workers, see if we learn about some other town for raiding or anything of use for our researchs

>>26042440
lets talk to the queen

>>26042440
Bring in the royal to meet our divine queen and gather the rest of the prisoners and guard them

>>26042298
Introduce there queen to our divine queen

>>26042440
>A) Talk to their 'Queen', detain the rest.

>>26042440
A) also send Medinh to the people telling them that if they join the church of Rozooll, and worship her they have a better chance of surviving. bring the princess in to learn how to deal with enemy leaders.

goddamnit guys, Im tired as fuck and Im going to bed. if the threads still alive when I wake up, Ill return. don't fuck this up guys, and the elf may be a bit moralistic. we should determine his values

>>26042440
A) I also like the idea of mind raping their queen. But talking should first happen.

>>26042496
this is me (stupid tag that works in only a few quest have to keep changing them us less i become awesome)

>>26042440
A) Bring the "Queen" before Rozooll and detain the rest.

>>26042440

Keep the rest in the Oasis above, their 'Queen' is brought down into the hatchery to meet Rozooll.
However the man walking in looks vaguely familiar...
Medinh recognizes the face as well. Before the man or Rozooll can address each other, Medinh speaks:
"Welcome back to the Hive, Hazim."
The man, clearly not expecting Medinh, turns his head, his face going white.
"M...Medinh! I thought you were lost to the sands. I'm so glad to-

"Don't poison this holy place with with your false courtesies, Hazim," Medinh says, his words oozing disdain. "My Queen," he says, looking up at Rozooll. "This cretin was the very same acolyte who betrayed me, as well as my brothers and sisters, nearly killing us before we could return to you. He is a heretic and is NOT to be trusted!"

"P-please, my Queen," Hazim starts, kneeling penitently, "I merely failed to see your radiance. I could not have known of your divine strength. Fear clouded my vision, but now...now I truly see! I-"

Getting slightly irritated that she hasn't spoken her piece yet, Rozooll interrupts, saying:

>A). Welcome him. The people of Kaalun seem to trust him, at least over Medinh. He will have an easier time winning the people over, if that's what you desire.
>B). Do not trust him. Medinh has been nothing but faithful...so far. The people may be slower to listen to Medinh, being denounced by his peer, but in time, perhaps they can be won over. Perhaps.
>C). Write-In

>>26042734
>C: Can we play them against each other? All the back handed compliments and possible insults

>>26042734
Welcome his ass

We welcome anyone into our flock

>>26042734
C) Hazim. For your heresy your life is forfeit. Deliver the city into my hands through Medinh and you shall live. There is no bargaining. Do as I command or die. Worm.

>>26042791
This sounds pretty legit, I like the idea of having Medinh run a human city as allies to us, could be fun as long as we keep a close eye on them and dont let them usurp us in power.

>>26042791
I agree with this option

THE QUEEN IS DIVINE
THE QUEEN IS MAGNIFICENT
THE QUEEN IS MERCIFUL

ALL HAIL THE QUEEN

Rolled 69

>>26042440
eat them for christs sake!

>>26042845
seconding. use genetic ingestion skill to get the brains out of humans and put them into the curious ones

Rolled 28

>>26042734
eat him. we dont welcome all into our flock. We are sustained on sacrifice. it would be retarded to let those that are acting unrightious live instead of sacrifice them.

goddammit

>>26042791
I have to say I do like this.

>>26042882
We can totally eat him later. Let him freely give us control of the city first.

You were a fool hazim but perhaps you'll be of use to us

Fail us again and you will wish you'd have been consumed

>>26042881
Yeah, also that, but thats not the point. The point is, that we are insect who have a whole culture based on eating, and based on sentient sacrifice, and for the benefit of progression we chuck that whole character out of the window to create a more convinient one

>>26042791
this but add "Medinh tell them to worship me, don't tell them that if they that aren't worshiping me by dawn then i will start eating them"

>>26042915
>based on eating and sentient sacrifice

i could swear our culture was about the good of the hive, worshipping our glorious mother and testing the weak...

>>26042972
I second this addition.

>>26042734
Eat him right on the spot.

He and his men were tested and they have failed.
The others "might" be given a chance to join and those that refuse will be eaten as well.

>>26042982
she ATE our god. We never were about the best for her, we were about the most to eat for here

>>26042915
I agree, I'd rather take control of the city and keep them breeding as a food supply.

>>26042915
I agree, I'd rather take control of the city and keep them breeding as a food supply

>>26042734

Rozooll interrupts Hazim, before more of his heretical falsehoods can defile the most sacred of chambers.

"ENOUGH!" Rozooll's voice booming throughout the chamber, "Hazim, you have committed heresies to me and my disciples. However, I offer you a most generous option: turn control of Kaalun over to Medinh. Tell the people that Medinh was right all along. Do this and I will let you live."

Hazim contemplates at first, but realizing that this very well might be a life-and-death situation, agrees.
"O-of course, Benevolent Queen!" He says, bowing hideously low, "Allow me to return to them above, so that I may inform them of their new leader..."

He is escorted to the Oasis, Medinh following behind.

>Cont.

>>26043160
bump Hows it coming OP?

>>26043365
his cat is probably getting attacked again

>>26043160

The people seem relieved to see Hazim exit the Hive, but some of that turns to confusion when Medinh soon joins him.

"Brothers and sisters:" Hazim says, "I have made a grievous error. I misjudged these crea-" He pauses, but quickly corrects himself. "these people! They serve a truly divine and higher purpose than I could have ever foreseen. And the first to recognize this divinity was my brother." He gestures to Medinh, standing to his side. "They serve a benevolent Queen, whose only crime is responding to the slaughter of her children in the same way that we greeted them. In my shame, I refuse to declare leadership of you all, henceforth. However, Medinh is more than capable of leading you all to a new and fruitful life."

Some of the people seem confused at this turn of events, a few even giving sour faces. However, no one seems to speak out against this.

With Hazim's end of the bargain filled, what shall be done with him? And the people?

Hazim:
>A). Keep him among the Kaalun citizens. He seems to hold a sort amount of charismatic charm over them. Even recognizing Medinh as their leader, he could probably keep them in line better. But can he be trusted?
>B). Exile! His part of the bargain has been filled, but he was not guaranteed safety under Rozooll's home. Send him into the desert, with a warning to never return.
>C). Eat him. Sorry, we don't bargain with heretics.
>D). Write-In

The people:
>E). Keep them in Greenhome. Space may be tight, but they could probably contribute greatly with labor and other tasks like farming.
>F). Send them back to Kaalun. They've done no harm to the Rozoollim. If they claim
>G). Write-In

>>26043483

Choose one from each option.

>>26043365
>>26043466
Haha, naw he's fine. Sorry. It was just a lot of exposition to type. I would never abandon you guys!

>>26043483
A and F

Will we be sending several of the warriors to keep watch on them?

>>26043483
Probably A for Hazim and E for the people

>>26043483
Gotta send the people back to their place and give us tithes in armor and weapons. Send some warriors and learning bugs with them too

Don't know about Hazim mixed feelings right now

>>26043483
Hazim
C.) We are too trusting of strangers and known heretics. just eat the cunt

the people
E.) why the fuck would we send out peopel who will no doubt hunt us down when they have gathered strength?

>>26043531
So he can cause dissent?
>>26043483
C, please
E

>>26043483
A (If a bunch of people are up for eating him though ill go along)
F) some warriors should go back with them and 2 curious ones

>>26043483
A) but keep an eye on him. Closely.

E) have them live on top of the hive. They will cultivate our above ground crops.

Keep both the queen and the people. The living can be of more use than the dead. Otherwise we'd be necromancers.

C and F

He is the origin of this conflict and with him it dies.

Hopefully Medinh will be able to keep them in line and in time we might be able to foster some more humans for our cult.

>>26043483
A & F.

We should also get to producing more offspring after this and If we want we could create a tunnel to connect the city to our hive.

>>26043074
banish him but i think that once he gets a far enough away he has an "accident"

for the people do this >>26043561 send Medinh with them too

>>26043483
oh if we do eat him.
DO NOT EAT HIM IN FRONT OF THE POPULACE! lol

>>26043711
It would be a nice example. Eat them down until only the faithful remain

>>26043703
I like this

>>26043703
This is probably the best compromise. From what ive read.

>>26043711

Hazim has fulfilled his promise and a benevolent God-Queen is true to her word (at least, when she wants to). Hazim is spared and sent back among the people, who are relieved at being unharmed.

The Queen tells Medinh to return with them to Kaalun, as he is now their leader. With the day growing late, the people set up camp in the Oasis above and will depart for their home the next day.

A) as per usual
B) anyone who isn't busy. Any acolytes who remained
C) West, Nomads
D) Curious ones develop rituals along with whatever human acolytes remained if any.
F) Tunnelers help our pet worm out setting up her lair
G) queen eggs.

Status report on our beloved princess?

>>26044025
Let's just make sure we keep in regular contact with Kaalun.

>>26043982
I'd like to check out these spell books and make further research into metalworking

>>26043982
We should have eaten him and used genetic ingestion to create an ambassador caste with a more human mouth that is actually capable of speech. It'd be better to not have the Queen's words sullied through the mouth of a non-insect before reaching the populous.

Or allow Medinh to ascend into an insect body if he's cool with that.

>>26043982
Eastcave guys. Cool stuff. A big thing to eat.

>>26043982
B) idles worship
C) Explore west side of the desert.
F) tunnelers create lair for the worm.

>>26044117

Worm made her own lair. I don't think I posted that, though, so my bad.

>>26044156
Ah okay.

We should build a secure tunnel between our Hive and Kaalun to make movement of forcrs and goods safer and quicker. And we happen to have a fuckhuge tunneling worm for the job, which would serve as a demonstration of our divine power as well. We should also prepare our Princess to settle among the humans, considering how it is an already established settlment.

>>26044273
I love this idea. Like a lot.

>>26044273

>>26043982

Harvest yields 9.1 Units of food
~
Medinh and his followers depart for Kaalun. He promises to keep a close eye on Hazim and send regular surplus supplies when possible. His acolytes remain.
~
In accordance to the bargain made with Ronin, he claims the Spell Tomes first, for his own study. What does a blind elf need with books anyway?
~
The strange eggs birthed previously have hatched into larva!
~
The remaining acolytes resume their dutiful worship of Rozooll. Their chants and praise resonate within the hatchery, filling their glorious Queen with strength.
~
The Queen continues to lay eggs, birthing a whole 15 unfertilized eggs!
~
Deciding that a dependable route to their satellite settlement will be needed, Rozooll orders her pet Tunnel Worm to bore its way westward, towards the city.
~
The Curious Ones make a breakthrough in metalworking! Blades and other metalwork will be a bit higher quality, with more bite in their edges.
~
Mazooll is developing nicely, growing more each day. She's already almost as big as the Rozooll was originally.
~
Nomads are sent to investigate the western part of the desert, between Kaalun and Greenhome. They find nothing of note, aside from the tracks made by Medinh and his flock.

Lets create a great spire to see the horizon and anything within it is our kingdom

>>26044655
F) I second the giant spire
Also is there anyway to create some sort of parasitic fungus that we can use to strengthen the tunnels of our hive. (Im basically thinking some sort of Creep type thing)

>>26044655
Giant observation spire, even the skies will bow before the works of Rozooll

>>26044647
>>26044655
A) as usual
B) acolytes, anyone not busy, at least one member of each caste

Harvest brings back 8.9 Units of food
~
Work on The Spire has started. It'll take about 4 turns to complete.
~
The larva grow into their shells, these ones are vastly different, though.
They only have 4 limbs, unlike the 6 of the other Rozoollim, and their chitin is a fleshy light tan. Their mandibles are a bit smaller, but they immediately display fluency in both the chittering language of the Insects, as well as Commontongue. This must be the result of the ingested human genetics!
(Caste name available for input. I'll select a default name of my own if no one cares.)

The Queen Tunnel Worm continues to bore westward.

G.) Get the new caste to serve the Princess directly.

She will be closer to humans if the plan to give her control of the city is where we're going, so a team of translators will aid in that.

>>26045005
Is there a specific set of rules for civ quest, if so where do I find them?
Also I like the name Speaking Ones for the new brood
And lastly lets see how the magic studies are going

Talkers

or something along those lines.

We dispatch 6 warriors along with 2 nomads to try and find our lost members.

(I'll keep the polls for the names open for another turn or so. 'Harbingers' seem to be the most popular so far.)

Harvest and Scavenging results in 8.7 Units of food.
~
More Rozoolliim show signs of aging.
~
A rider from Kaalun arrives!
He bears greetings from Medinh, as well as a small box of supplies.
(+3 hides, 2 Units of food)
~
Curious Ones and the New Caste take on learning about rituals and worship from the acolytes. They observe how they worship Rozooll, note the rituals they perform, and the symbols and other things they do. The whole 'magic' thing they talk about confuses them, but they start to understand the science behind it.
~
Tunnelers are sent down the large passage being dug by the Queen Tunnel Worm to help her out. The digging process is increased by a large amount, thanks to their help.
~
Talk about the potential uses of the New Caste is ongoing. They could serve as potential servants to the Queen and Princess, as well as diplomatic envoys. More discussion may be required.
~
The Queen lays a fresh clutch of 14 eggs.
~
One of the New Caste is designated to fertilize half of the eggs laid by Rozooll.
A Warrior fertilizes the rest.

>>26045383
Gotta lay some more eggs like ALOT

We take some of the harbingers to town and get them to mingle with the populace to test their affinity for speech and to ask around if there's a map of the area or not

>>26045383
B) Worship
D) Research better armor
F) Continue work on the Spire

>>26045374
The New Caste could potentially end up as traders/merchants for us. It'd make sense, if they develop into becoming our "touching points" with other races.

>>26045554
This is a good idea. Merchants can get us some exotic specimens to consume.

>>26045383
G.) Send some Harbringers to the city to observe Medinh.

They need to be trained, and master the common tongue, something unlikely in the familiarity of the hive.

>>26045383
A) as usual
B) worship, let's see what the Harbingers have learned.
C) nomads to the south. Tell them to be cautious and make sure they come home safe.
D) curious ones work on animal taming. We'll want more sand worms soon.
F) tunnel to the city continues
G) more eggs
G) send a party of some warriors, a few nomads and a Harbinger to the city via above ground route. Don't tell them about the sand worm directly, but hint at with phrases about the Will of the Great Mother and talk about greater connection to her faithful people and so on.

>>26045383

The 15 larvae grow into their shells. Of the 15:
6 are Warriors,
1 is a Curious One!
2 are Harbingers
4 are Tunnelers
2 are Workers
~
The previous clutch of eggs hatch into larva.
~
The acolytes, joined by a cluster of Harbingers, worship their mother and god. The Harbingers are a bit sloppy in their motions and methods, but their attempts please Rozooll greatly. She feels their faith bolstering her.
~
A fresh clutch of eggs is birthed, an impressive 16 unfertilized eggs come out!
~
One of the Harbingers is prepped to depart for Kaalun. A small group of Warriors and Nomads will be joining him. They will leave next turn.
~
The Tunnel to Kaalun is nearly complete. Only a few more turns.
~
Nomads are sent to the south to scout the unexplored area. They don't return after sundown.

Curious Ones will be able to resume observing Tunnel Worms once the Queen is back.

E). Study Magic

Time to check in with Ronin!

>>26045881
Lets improve our magic especially magics involving the minds and once again lets lay more clutches of eggs

>>26045881
Well, since the curious ones aren't doing anything at the moment.

D.) Examine the bows and find a way to make them more compliant with superior insect anatomy.

>>26045881
E) Lets see if we can get some mind control here.

>>26045881
A) as per usual
B) anyone who isn't busy
D) observe egg development and patterns in fertilization and resulting castes when the larvae mature
E) queen. Let's get the mind magics rolling
G) send parties to look for mission explorers. Include warrior escorts.

>>26045881

Harvest returns 8.9 Units of food
~
A Harbinger, 6 Warriors, and 3 Nomads depart for Kaalun.
~
With the desire to learn more magic, Rozooll summons Ronin to the hatchery. Wishing to improve her natural affinity for mind control, he teaches her what he knows. Much of it comes easy to the Queen, but full mastery is just beyond her grasp. A little more practice is needed.
~
The 16 eggs remain unfertilized.
~
The Nomads dispatched previously have returned! They found that the desert gives way to verdant fields after a few days, describing it as "The Oasis, but as far as the eye can see!".
~
Another group of Scavengers fail to return in the evening.
(-2 Scavengers)
~
The 14 larvae grow into their shells. Of the 14:
5 are Harbingers
6 are Warriors
3 are Tunnelers
~
Curious Ones set their minds towards improving the functionality of bows for the Rozoollim's anatomy.

>>26046209
So I just joined this thread; is losing Scavengers a regular occurrence? Or is it something to investigate?

>>26046209
We further explore the verdant fields and perhaps take plant and animal specimen to farm and feed to the queen.

We get the queen to hatch more eggs while the curious ones figure out how to change these eggs characteristics

>>26046209
Assign a Curious One to document everything about our tribe, everything. An Archivist.

>>26046209
A) as usual
D) Have the curious ones study our evolution
E) magic study again
G)have a least one Curious One to look over our hive and determine how long it would take to move and replicate the hive near those fields.

>>26046260
Also this is definitely a great idea.

>>26046281
>moving the hive
>not simply digging a tunnel to the green

>>26046281
We try to make a human like settlement above ground with walls and everything and have it connected with a tunnel.

>>26046318
It might make sense to have a base in a much more verdant area. An oasis can dry up very quickly

>>26046318
Oh god I imagine it now

>Miles and miles of the hive stretching from the mountains to the plains to the oceans
>Nobody knows about our hive
>We spring out and engulf HUGE sections of land and cities within weeks

Nobody can stop us

>>26046209
we have one evolution point right? what are the level 1 upgrades we can evolve again?

>>26046352
This is a good idea. Misleads potential invaders.

>>26046368
The desert is much more readily defensible, though. Also, Queen with the powers of a god could just learn a rain spell.

>>26046383
This is from the 2nd thread. Im not sure if theres a more current one (i havent had time to read the backlong)

List of viable mutations:

>Thickened Carapace (Major):
The exoskeleton of the Queen and all future generations are strengthened. Physical and, to a lesser extent, magical, attacks will be more difficult to pierce the skin of your brothers.
>Hypo-metabolic Glands (Minor):
The Hunger can never truly be mitigated, but improvements to the Hive's digestive processes could reduce food requirements. Food per turn (~1 Day) goes from 3.5 units to 2.5.
>Growth (Major):
All future generations will be one size-class larger than now. This increases brute strength and base endurance/health. The Queen will lay fewer eggs per clutch, due to the egg's size.
>Growth - Queen (Major):
As above, but the Queen gets an enhanced effect. The Queen grows nearly two size categories. On top of the benefits above, her increased size allows a greater number of eggs per clutch.
>Caustic Projectors (Major):
A new caste of Rozoolliim are born.
Developments in chemical reactions allow this caste to produce and fling acrid globules of searing gel to melt through enemies and rock alike.
>Existing Caste Improvement (Minor):
One existing caste is generally improved.
For example, Warriors will be a bit more healthy. A little stronger. Develop basic autonomy when tactics are required,
Workers are capable of more profound constructions, idols, etc,
Curious Ones are more smarta, more curious, etc.
>Adrenal Enhancement (Minor):
Nomads and Scavengers get a notable boost in land speed. This could allow more yield in Scavenging attempts, farther exploration in smaller time frames, improved scouting, and more.
>Write-In (???)
Let's have a talk.

>>26046394
That is a good point. Maybe secondary hives if we get more princesses?

>>26046423
Isn't that what we're doing with our princess under the human city?

>>26046412
I say we improve our scavengers to become assassin type bugs, sneaking and stuff. They were doing pretty well with it during the assault on the city so lets improve it further more

>>26046444
Or, we could add wings to the Harbringers. Just putting it out there.

>>26046423
Why not make what appears to be a human or normal settlement like >>26046352 suggested with it being small, but underground it is like a whole new hive area with a tunnel connecting it to the main hive.

We could have an entire fort's worth of men in a small encampment with no one being the wiser.

>>26046493
Don't know about harbingers having wings. Maybe nomads would get them along with better eye sight so they can become fantastic scouts flying days on end

>>26046412
>>26046209
can wings be a major evolution, if so i vote for wings

>>26046516
>>26046209
i like this, evolve wings for all castes, simpler castes can get beetle wings while fighting/upper castes get more versatile wings like wasps and such

>>26046572
Im fine with a wing evolution.

>>26046209

With the development in writing, the Curious One is tasked with chronicling past events. With a stone tablet, a Worker is assigned to engrave the past events in stone.
~
Harvest yields 9.2 Units of food
~
The Curious Ones look into evolution. No new information crops up, just that the Queen has the ability to assimilate genetics from other species. Outcomes in larvae seem to be influenced by the caste that fertilizes them, but for the most part, it's randomized.
~
The Queen births a fresh clutch of 13 eggs.
There are now 27 unfertilized eggs.

Rozooll finishes honing her mind control magic. She masters the spell under Ronin's tutelage, improving her ability to dominate minds!

I just had a thought: The human city gave us some hides right?...where exactly did they get them from? What i'm getting at is there might be an animal we haven't tasted yet that they have.

>>26046594
G). Investigate those tracks!

Would it be possible to cross-breed castes? Like....Warriors and Curious Ones to create hunters/trackers?

>>26046594
We follow the tracks with some nomads and give them days worth of food and water. Should it prove hostile do not engage and retreat. Should it be a stupid animal worth feeding to the queen then try capturing 1 or two of them.

Pop out some more eggs and also explore those plains and get some plant and animal specimen

>>26046594
have each caste fertilize a group of eggs
deploy warriors to tunnel to explore
evolve Wings

>>26046594

>>26046594

divide eggs amoung the castes for fertilizing

G) warriors train. This one passively when they're not otherwise busy please

>>26046660
forgot this:

Next evo should be fertile curious ones

>>26046594
Question: didn't we discover an underground river of some kind? We should look into expanding our crops grown to this river as well.

>>26046594

B)worship
G) investigate tracks (specifics from 26046639)
G) Evolve curious ones to be fertile.

>>26046670
>>26046693
if fertile curious ones is possible then sure, wings if not please

>>26046732
I'll second this motion.

>>26046732
We can onto wings from something we eat, and its only useful when outside the hive. Investing in either our tech or our Evo is much better IMO

>>26046775
We could expand the insides of our hive. Make it more cavernous and harder to traverse for anyone without wings. At least certain sections, anyway.

>>26046775
>have we SEEN anything that even has wings?
tech is left to the curious ones, and if we can't evo them to be fertile then it must take something else to do so

Nomads are sent out to investigate and follow the tracks found previously. They are expected back next turn...

>Food Consumption Rate: 8.7 Units.

>>26046939
Lets start expanding the hive towards the lush plains and talk to Medinh about those excess arms and armors and some concerns in the city

We should also make a church with all of the worshiping humans to bolster our religions ranks and bring in more human worshipers making our queen stronger

>>26046977
Dig a massive temple to Razool underneath the city.

>>26046939
A) as per usual
B) as per usual
D) study the worm, now that she's finished tunneling
F) expand undeground farms. We'll need to get ahead of our consumption again
G) evolve fertile curious ones unless it's a low odds evo.

>>26046962
Hey OP can we get some idea on what valid options for evolution are? Since you haven't given us any feedback about using an evolution point to make curious ones fertile or give create wings?

A) as usual
B) as usual
D) studying the worm is a good idea.
F) use all tunnelers and any available curious ones to expand underground farms

We need to establish watchposts in half a day's distance around our Hive. We have way too many disappearances, and security has been a forgotten topic lately.
Along with this project, we need an enhanced form of hivemind, so that long ranged telepathy becomes available. We have serious reaction time issues so far.
Our Harbingers and Curious Ones should be taught by the blind elf some basics about the world. Sort of building a school where the elf is the teacher. In the long run we could work on using the Queen as a server of sorts, which could distribute information to anyone linked to the hivemind on a need to know basis. So yeah, like Skynet except with biotech rather than robotics and AI.

>>26047002
Gotta say Baron, I really like the choices you make and how you word them.

>>26047027
>>26047002

Oh, sorry! I think I overlooked those in trying to get updates out.

Yes. An Evolution Point can be spent in doing either of those things. They're both major, unless wings are given to only a specific caste, in which it could be a minor.

Evolutions are really only limited to the imagination. And logical reasoning. They're kinda meant to be powerful, but sparse.

I doubt we can evolve wings all of the sudden

We never even have any experience with winged creatures so story wise. I think we should ingest some powerful winged creatures to even get the concept of wings.

>>26047088
I agree. And I vote for an evolution to make the curious ones fertile.

>>26047033
This is why I'm advocating learning telepathy and mind magics.

>>26047040
Thanks, right back at you. I've been at this quest for a while and generally like Civ-control games.

>>26047000
This on the long term to do list, but we need better food income first, to support our growing population.

>>26046977
I think we should make a request that the humans make a settlement atop the hive as well. We farm subterran stuff, humans farm aboveground crops. Gives the hive itself a direct access to trade and such, instead of having to do it through the city and the tunnel.

>>26046939

Harvest/Scavenging returns 9.1 Units of food.
~
Harbingers are sent along the Tunnel to meet with Medinh in Kaalun.
They should be back presently.
~
Work on The Spire is nearing completion. It's looking a bit crude, but seems to look functional enough.
~
The Curious Ones resume studying the Queen Worm. She seems to function off of many of the same principles as Rozooll, able to birth eggs at will, but needing mates to fertilize them.
~
Tunnelers start to expand the underground mushroom farm once more.
(+2 shiny ore chunks, 1 Flamestone)
~
The 27 fertilized eggs hatch into larva.

The Nomads return, but with grave news. The tracks belonged to a large group of humans traveling the desert. They managed to spot the Nomads, but the others managed to escape while the group focused on one of them that was left behind. He reports that they were wearing the shells of fallen Rozoolliim as armor. Unfortunately, the Nomad thinks that they could follow the tracks here. There could be a marauder attack soon...

Unfortunately, I think I gotta leave it here for the night. It's getting late (early) and I'm starting to lose focus.

I'll be around for just a little bit more, while I archive the thread and such, if anyone has any questions.

I've also written down the suggestions and such for Evolutions (making Curious Ones fertile) and progress on The Spire and other things, so those will continue first thing next thread. So I hope you don't feel jipped, as far as those are concerned.

Ooh. Seems like it's time for WAR.

It'll be fun using our new spells. What's the range of Domination? Does it require eye contact?

>>26047181
Its all good OP. Thanks for the thread and have a good night :)

>>26047206

Domination doesn't have a set range, necessarily. But it doesn't gain/lose power in relation to proximity of Rozooll. So there's that.

>>26047209

No problem, glad to do it. I only wish that I didn't need sleep, or else I'd keep going.

>>26047181
Oh boy war

See you later

>>26047230
Lol I have the same wish xD Well seeya next time :)

>>26047230
Did you mean to say it DOES gain/lose power in relation to proximity? Because if you didn't, that "But" is a bit misplaced.

>>26047230
>>26047258
But it does*** gain power.
God, I'm losin' it.

With all that said and done, I won't be around to run the thread tomorrow evening, but
Wednesday/Thursday might be a good day. I'm a little uncertain at the moment, with plans being in the air, but if you guys want/need to know at some point, I'll update the Steam Group/Twitter as soon as I find out for sure.
I'm gonna guess Wednesday at about the same time, 0:00 EST.

G'night, children. Thanks for playing!

>>26047287
Thanks for the clarification. Night, OP.
