Contest - Nations of the Firmament

So, just to save me some time having to invent it all, I'm asking for people to help declare what's going on in the living world, from which all of our Souls derive. This world does not correspond to our actual Earth world, though for convenience's sake, I'm going to start out with some Old or New Testament maps. Just so there's some realistic geography, and some settlement names already provided. Now we get to invent what those cities and nations are like, which should have nothing to do with actual history.

So, mostly I just need to have some "personalities" for about 15 different city-state nations. Are they very religious? Very commercial? Very warlike? Two or three of those? Do they practice slavery? Do they practice omni-sexuality? Patriarchal or matriarchal? You tell me. And give them names, please. I'll place them on the map later on, once I've picked a good map.

Since nobody has really broached this part of the game yet, there's no conflict of interest from letting you guys invent what happens above. And, your reward will be that by making me write less backstory, you're speeding up Turn 12s processing time.

Ten days before the deadline, and there are already three turns submitted. All of which then had addendums.

So, if anyone else wants to submit turns early... it's all good.

My favorite part about how Nybbas chose to create all of the posts in the Encyclopedia thread, and then edit the content in later... is that none of the updates show up as new posts.

So stuff could appear... change... disappear... and Fist would never know there was an update, unless he's checking every post in the thread (over 100 posts, currently) every day.

And there's nothing I love more than setting things up so that Fist has to work himself into a frenzy for negligible rewards.

Checking all the posts is easy. Only six pages so far. Open a page, and scroll down. Takes no time.

IMO, the Unpunished Soul needs to be punished. I'm gonna have to spank her good!

Sure, while there's no content. But once Nybbas puts some text there... you'll have to notice changes.

Where oh where have my little demon princes gone?
Where oh where have they gone?

Nobody submits turns (except the three who did)
Everybody hates me.
I'm going to the garden to eat Sin.

Bong!
