/qst/ - Quests


You are an ancient being that was formed strange aeons ago with your kin. Currently you are at a nice little corner of the middle of nowhere. It's connected to the ancient ley gates that one of your kin created before the last time you visited.

You should visit your kin more often. Then again not every one of them likes you.

Then again what do they call you again?

> Choose your name and choose wisely. But not like a wise ass. Well not too wise ass.

Also what were you doing here again?

Ah yes. Creating a new solar system. This place could use a little tidying up.

Do you want life in this solar system?
> Yes. Because life makes things more interesting.
> No! Life is so chaotic and hectic.
> Lets see if it forms on it's own, it's more exciting that way

What kind of star(s) do you want for this system?
> One star
> Two Stars
> Multiple tiny stars
> Let's try something different.
>>
1. Fulit

2. Yes.

3. Two, desert planets please.
>>
>>9285
>Name: No idea at all
>Life: Yes
>Two Stars
Binary star systems are fun!
Also, 'sup, Shud?
I still need to catch up on improvaizen...
>>
>>9303
Desert Planet Stars? Well you could technically make a tiny star and put it on a desert planet. But let's not get ahead of our selves

1 name vote (Fulit)
1 vote yes for life
1 vote for a system with two desert planet stars.

This quest is already looking fun.
>>
>>9285
Name: Dunno, forgot. It probably won't come up
Life: Yes
Multiple tiny stars
>>
>>9285
>Ezekiel
>Yes
>Two Stars

Also I've never done a quest before so this should be an interesting experience. Loved Homestuck so yeah.
>>
Life vote threshold past!

Two stars vote 2
Multiple tiny stars 1
Name: ezekiel 1 / Fulit 1 / don't know probably won't come up 1 ( The latter is pretty fun.)
>>
>>9345
Changing my vote for the name to Ezekiel
>>
>>9368
Aw, come on. Names are for suckers, anyways.
>>
>>9345
Supporting Ezekiel.
>>
Name:Aizen

Star system:Nebula with Proto star
>>
Hmm... Well only your kin know you buy your true name. You are an ancient might as well be deity afterall.


>Ezekiel chosen

Ah yes! Ezekiel. That's what you are called. You figure you shall put life on some of your planets, maybe even in the space around the planets, who knows.

You are pretty sure you want to make a system with either two stars or multiple tiny stars.

What kind of stars should you make?

> Newer stars
> One old star and one new old star
> Two older Stars
> Two exotic stars.
> A Quasar and something else.
> A combination of any of the above.
>>
>>9445
Two exotic stars.
>>
>>9445
>> Two exotic stars.
>>
>>9445
>> Two older Stars
Quasars are kinda dangerous...

>>9445
One Quasar, One Exotic star
>>
>>9445
>> Two exotic stars.
>>
>>9445
>One old star and one new old star

>>9465
Better slightly than a gamma ray star.

You could always reflect on other creations. You are after all older than most star stuff. Then again you created most of it.

Crafting tables show up very soon. Or hell I can make one up for what happens per star.


If it makes it easier for you guys to choose I can make it.

>>9822
Experimentation with divine power until we have a firm grasp of how to create all of those things.

Which shouldn't be hard at all since we can make solar systems, just might take a short bit of trial and error. The only tricky thing might be a direct spark of 'life'

We can always go full "Living planet" and make one of the planets a giant monster that survives on photosynthesis and fear

Here is a qst friendly table.

1. Eletroweak Star: Life forms that evolve under the light of an Electroweak star allows for your civilisation a bit of protection, and life to develop normally while it is in this phase.

2. Preon star : Life that has evolved on planet around a preon star tends to be more robust and resiliant. Life forms here tend to have short life spans that forces the life forms to live extremely meaningful lives and evolve quickly.

Planck star: HARDEST MODE. Life- if it forms here at all is the most resiliant form of life, and for the most part very simple. If sapient life does form it becomes something that would make the Necrontyr (pre fluff reboot) seem downright pleasant and amicable.

Boson Stars: life formed here is incredibly ancient and almost impossible to control. The issue with life that forms around here is that more often than not only one form of sapient life will form per planet.

Preon Star: Life developed around a Preon star will be in constant flux and constantly evolving. This form of star will have multiple forms of life on it of multiple types with thousands of forms of life (different kingdoms of life would be incredibly numerous)

Quark star: Life here does not evolve normally, and is killed off quickly. Planets in this system is kill or be killed. Life here will have multiple forms like other stars but it will take some special cases to get them to work together.

You decide upon an unusual combination-- A Neutron star, something you have never built a solar system with that you intend to have a life in and a Planck star something which usually spells death for sapient life on a planet but your one experiment with it turned out incredible.

Now the question is how many planets do you want to put into this solar system?
> More than 9
> Less than 9
> Less than 7
> Less Than 5
> Less Than 3

Secondly how do you want your planets.

The stars around you and the universe seems to be indicating that the best number of planets in this planet would be three. Especially with these stars- too many planets would mean only a mediocre life potential.

Additionally you could always create a large planet with many moons if you want to get creative. You use your powers to bring the stars into existence in this lonely portion of the universe. Right now you can slightly adjust it so other planets with life can see this twin star system better or make it more obfuscated.

You can also position it so that way planets would be able to see more stars or less.

As the stars start turning and doing their dance, you notice that the type of light emitting from these stars would be amazing to see on the smaller scale. Sadly you are not that small. You can never see the scale of your works of those you design it for. However there is a nearby nebula that may inspire those who are born on these planets. That is important.

Time to adjust how the planets will be positioned.

>Non standard
Allows for less likelihood of being detected by non planetary life, however it means only strong life will survive. IF it survives. You may have to meddle with it, and the last time you did that- well, you don't have to go over that again.

>Atypical standard
While not as stealthy, it would make it seem like life is not something worth living in this system. That being said it's because life wouldn't exactly thrive in such an orbit. Also Sapient life would probably want to ask you a few questions if they ever met you.

> Standard
Life is going to happen with orbits like this, even with your star selection. That being said it would be obvious for other planets that life could be capable there.

Your fourth option is thus

>> Historic orbit.
You have done this orbit before with the other system that was a planck star. It works. Life happens. The problem is that the only other life that formed on a planck star would recognize this instantanously and investigate. However judging by the nearby nebula you are a far distance off from them, and they won't do anything foolish. Granted other alien species would also recognize it and may try to plant other forms of life on your planet while you are working.

>>
>>10451
Do it
>>
>>10451
>>10457
idk how that happened, but let's fuckin' do it.
>>
You put your planet seeds on a traditional orbit around the stars that you know works. Granted you do not like repeating your work, but it was so long ago and you aren't really repeating yourself.

This is something new and exciting! Two stars with one neutron and one planck hosting three planets! If you do it right, all three could possibly support life and their moons can too. However, do you really want to do that? Having life on all of the planets could cause problems, but if all planets have the potential it optimizes the chance of life evolving, and even more so sapience and sentience.

Additionally now you have to design these planets due to your traditional orbit all are what are considered in a habitable zone. Well that and the way the stars work.

Which planet do you wish to start on?

> Inner most planet
> Middle Planet
> Outer most planet

Additionally, would you like to create an outer area asteroid field? It can help protect your planets from interlopers, but they could occasionally collide, which can also add unusual life elements. You can also add comets as well which help with sapient life, and create paterns life can recognize.

> Add Comets
> Add Asteroids

Rolled 33, 64, 95 = 192 (3d100)

This will be the last post for the night, judging by the speed of the board, and it's age- I will post tomorrow before work, something which will take you all a long time to decide upon which is good, because this is a very complex quest and I don't want people to rush it for the pay off.

> Asteroids & Comets
You make a quick motion and two asteroid belts form in the solar system making things sort of protected from certain angles.

You then decide to create some comets, some regular intervals some irregulars. It's actually quite majestic. It should inspire life to aspire for greater things.

Now for the nitty gritty.

And time to bust out those infamous dice. I am going to roll three d 100. This will basically be your planetary pool for your first planet. You can also buy more dice, however doing so- does things.

> for an additional 1d20
Those pesky little grey aliens your asshole cousin marv made will eventually come to this system.

> For an additional 1d50
The asteroids are tasty to sphess whales. some of them are predatory and like attacking life based planets, granted you can create a protector whale, but those things are hungry (And will cost you a d50)

> For an additional 1d100
You accidentally put some really nice metals and valuble materials in those planets and comets. Lots of speices are going to come here as soon as they figure out. Hope you bought a space whale.

> For an additional 2d100
You put that thing really close to a resource rich nebula, the system is already rich with resources, and for some strange reason other sapients find your aliens... attractive (Eww...) and will try to steal your creations the second they are discovered.

Do you buy any of these things?
>>

All but that last one imo

The points can be used towards more things which I will post tomorrow, right now you only have 192 points.

I will allow some more dice buys that are less bad

> For an additional 10 points
One of your species, is going to eventually evolve to be humanoid sapient. This can be a blessing and a curse

> For an additional 5 points

You drop an alien artifact on the planet. This will accidentally alter how the races on this planet evolve and shape their world view.

> For the low cost of 15 points.
You buy a baby sphess whale. These long lived creatures make great companions for dieties if well fed. They can also be good defenders of solar systems if trained. They however, have unusual diets.

they are
>> Krakatan
The typical sphess whale, large scary to most space ship using aliens, and eats asteroids. Not too hard to train, but not really that good at guardin things. Also they are infamously unreliable when they are sleeping.

>> Orconacus
Extremely intelligent sphess whales that have deadly laser beam eyes. They feed off energy, so expect it to sun itself quite frequently. Also due to intelligence they can quickly get bored and do things... Also these are the easiest sphess whales to train and guard all life forms inside the galaxy. The problem is that includes invasive species.

>Mobionius
WHITE WHALE! HOLY GRAIL! The most angry of the sphess whales. Loyal only to you, and barely that. Feeds off noble gases and star stuff, and loves chomping down on anything that enters it's territory. Including friendlies or your little guys. They can be trained to guard one race but it takes a whole lot of precious time and energy. Also it may scare the shit out of the sapient you use to train the sphess whale.

Honestly, I think that the Mobionius is too much of a risk, Even though it's a Giant Rabid Space Kaiju Whale. I mean, I want to make the ultimate species of sapient creatures as much as any of you, but making this beast could be detrimental to them.

My Reasoning:

>First, even though it can be trained to guard one race, it also takes alot of time and energy too, time and energy which we may want to spend doing other things to improve our master race, and if it's a giant cosmos sized ethereal god saying it will take a long time to do...

>Second, Apparently it is only loyal to us, and just barely at that too, do we really want a pet that would turn on us in the blink of an eye, TRAITORS MUST BE EXTERMINATED!!!

>Thirdly, it would not only kill enemies, but also potential future allies, and our Perfect organisms. I'm pretty sure no matter how tough we make them, they won't be able to survive against this thing.

but we still probably need a space whale protector, which one though I have no opinion on, just not the Mobionius please

But I will take Humanoid species and Alien artifact though.

Can we have a small colony of Krakatans? This might delay space travel, but will give some defense, especially in the beginning.

My vote is on Orconacus, considering it's easy to feed, intelligent/ easy to train AND we can choose to have migrants living in our system, and if we don't want migrants our lifeforms can drive them away on their own.

In other words, the whale defends against hostile attackers (which is what we want it for mostly) and it's not like our lifeforms can defeat migrants on their own. They have to be good for something.

>>10906
I agree with this guy also, the Mobionus while effective is too volatile and unpredictable. We don't want to inadvertently create our own biggest threat and remove the possibility for cultural and technological enrichment in the form of migrants
>>

I'm also voting against no buys. We can get everything we need without detrimenting our lifeforms as it is.

Least trabblesome and intelligence is also quite a boon to our species when they become able to understand it. The fact that it's food source is the most tame might be the biggest help to us, because it will require no real maintenance compared to the others.

Also lasers means ranged ganking, which i like.

For the artifact, have a multilayer encription which essentially gives them 'THE TRUTH' tm in pieces as they can unlock more and more of it's secrets as they get advanced. Start in riddles, and slowly work up to outright telling them exactly how they came to be. Make it so that if they can unlock the full truth, they can almost certainly take care of themselves among the other aliens in the bed of stars. Additionally, try to work in some encouraging details about potentially working with their sibling experiments, although don't say it like that.

Huh it looks like y'all are having some whale problems. Tell ya what. My recommendation is a small pod of Narvhallia whales (considering your planck star you can actually feed them fine) or a few Orconacus. If you get a Mobionius you can only get one and it will take a shit long time to train even with the usual Taman Shud quest rolls. If you have multiple Orconacus it is less likely that they will be all sleeping. Plus you can also attempt to train your wild sphess whale too which works better if you have a few domestic.

As for long decision to pass out this morning, it's time to decide what you want your first planet to work on to be like and I don't mean just "blasted hellscape" or "giant disco derby"

Voting for the largest- highest density plasma planet with as many moons as possible. Can we make one of the moons a small preon star in a wide, irregular orbit?

I tell you guys what. I also apologize for working overtime. Money is nice.

Alright. I see what you guys want, sort of...

I am going to allow for hybrid planets. Mostly made up of a liquid with a series of solid islands and continents. Or gas planets with liquid etc.

I will allow you to figure this out. So far you have this 8 solid 7 plasma so what I can do is

> Planet 1
Solid planet with plasmatic oceans and enough liquid for much life.
(50% Solid, 30 % Plasma 20% liquid)

>planet 2
Plasma Planet with solid core and stange outliers with some liquid
(60% plasma 20% land 20% liquid)

>Third option
You guys create a hybrid.


As for elemental cores- Tungsten does sound dope. However you still have to seed elements before you seed for life. Since I am a bit tired after working sixteen hours, I am going to do the opposite of improvaizen and really simplify this.

> Periodic Table
You get the modern Periodic table to seed on the planet
> Periodic table minus
Peridoic table minus some random elements I will roll for when I get up.
> Periodic Table Plus
You get the periodic table plus magicals shiny unknowable metals~!

Also I did read all this but I really need sleep. I will check when I wake up in a few hours. We should get to what elements and make up before we generate the planet then deciding on life seeds.

I figured that although tantalum and titanium have a higher heat of vaporization carbon is probably better due to the availability of organic compounds which should help foster life. Which is why i thought it would be the best for life and I also figured that aerogel should allow more uniform temperatures on these islands than graphene or graphite structure. It seems like everyone seems to agree on these deductions, then may I suggest the majority of plasma comprise of lead.
>>
>>18198
we also i believed decide that there would be a solid core of titanium underneath that plasma. Although we might need to increase density in order to generate gravity to contain the plasma without it constantly spilling to the outside. Maybe the core could be a piece of a dwarf star surrounded by titanium, or it could be a black hole with a superstructure lattice around it that prevents the majority of absorption from the black hole. Any other ways we can think of to increase the gravitational pull to minimize the interference that we need to have to keep the planet together?

Maybe a core made mostly (50-60%) out of Tungsten, with pockets of Carbon (in the form of giant diamonds due to pressure), Iron, and maybe a few radioactive elements like Uranium, Radium or Plutonium (comprising like 10% of the core, tops), so that the nuclear reactions deep in the core heat up the planet and make the plasma/lava stuff possible?
The metals in the core would also help, generating an electromagnetic field around the planet to protect it from the solar wind, so that there'd actually be an atmosphere and stuff.

No idea about the names of shit you could make for new elements Shud, but you should have a table of elements up and assign the new elements into appropriate spots, check the rows they're in, and distribute common qualities between the ones that land in the same rows, with minor exceptions here and there.

You oclude the area around you creating a planet with powerful force. Such powerful force that you have enough for more moons than you intended maybe even some rings if you want.

You slowly form the exotic metal core of the planet , the plasma, the liquids and gases seeding it with scores of elements. You then pour tons of star stuff into the planet, more than you do so normally. This planet will need all that it can get.

Right now the planet is in it's initial formation and it doesn't have any climate to speak of, and it's various defense mechanisms haven't really gotten together yet, but naturally that takes a little more time.

The planet is done with intial formation, you can start work on moons for the planet, maybe make a decorative ring and you can do elemental distribution.

Hmm, I guess that would make our supposedly life supporting moons... less life supporting. But it is still a good idea.
>>
>>26262
Why would it make them less life supporting? I don't think I have the greatest understanding of space stuff. Is it because asteroids are often thought to carry the catalysts of life?
>>
>>26279
more because they would most likely be constantly bombarded by asteroids because they are near an asteroid sink.

They can definitely support life
quote from Shud > If you do it right, all three could possibly support life and their moons can too.

Oh, I was thinking that the gas giant would protect us more than anything. I thought the gravity well would prevent outside asteroids from making it to our inner planets.

Break was shorter than I thought it would be. Huh.

Anyways it looks like we want to distribute some elements throughout the planet!

This is one of the most complex parts.
--
You look upon the planet, it's actually pretty orderly. That's largely because the elements have not had anything but an initial stack distribution. Right now, not much can actually happen with the current distribution, but you can alter the structure to make it more or less suitable or interesting for life. Granted- if you make it too obviously distributed, it doesn't matter how long your planet is obfuscated-- someone will snoop around for those exotic and rare elements for various projects. You hate it when that is done.

----
I present to you the periodic table of the elements - minus our 40 exotics. You can distribute them however you want on this planet. That being said- you must distribute it wisely if you want any life to form.

You can do the following methods of distribution-
1. Individual calculation and percentile distribution- basically your planet is given a mass index- and you have to fill it up. You do this element by element peice by peice individually. This allows for the highest degree of customization. This is also the easiest thing to fuck up.

2. To go pack: You give Taman a brief description of what you want, and he throws it into a pseudo random math percentile machine and sets to bake. What comes out may be cookies, steak, or wasted shoe insoles depending on how you arrange it.

2 hybrid; You customize key elements you point to on the periodic table (or call out certain exotics or exotic states) and those are put aside. Taman then randomizes the rest of the elements in his random elemental percentile machine.

A note about this in ingame time: This is a long in depth process, that will halt all development of life on the planet until it is over.
>>
>>26893
This is well beyond my ability or understanding. I'll leave the votes to others who know anything at all about this shit.
>>
>>26893
another note: you can always say you have an exoti state of the element instead of making up an element. This can make shit so much easier and so much more useful later.

>>26908
Planet building aint easy. But I can help out

Things you need:
1- is this planet going to be
A) focused on the life forms
or
B) focused on how the hell the life formed

Do you want to make the building blocks of life abundant or an afterthought? This is when you have decide what you want to do with this planet.
>>
>>26934
Abundant, life comes easy in this planet. Specifically monstergirls.

With monsterboys or hermaphrodites as to how they breed
>>
>>26934
I want the building blocks of life to be abundant but I want the life itself to be resilliant and able to deal with a harsh environment. Does that work/make sense?
>>
>>26946
I think if we put the basic building blocks of life on the planet, the life forms will still be dealing with a harsh environment.

I have a question for the thread though, do we want to go with the standard organic molecules with this planet or go for more exotic silicon based life?
>>
>>26996
silicon-based life could be fun.
>>
>>26946
You are clever. I am giving your character a star brownie for that. You can use it later for 20 points.
>>26945
That comes in the life seeding phase. This shit is in depth. Yet believe it or not this shit is easier for me to run than improvaizen. Also who the hell knows if the life will even sexually reproduce? Your sphess krackan squid girls could theoretically reproduce by eating so much tha--- no that is also pronz. They can reproduce by converting base ma-- no that is also pronz... Look you get the idea. You do not know how life will evolve, but inevitably there will be some brave anon who wants to make porn of it.
>>

Oooh, I like the idea of silicon-based life.

You guys do know that something like that will make what it exhales complicated right?

That is assuming it runs on a traditional thing. Or if you don't make it exhale an exotic silicone gas. There is a lot that can be done with it.

That being said- it seems you guys want to do the hybrid variant which is good because I actually want to go to bed at a reasonable hour for once and enjoy this nice hotel.

So I can offer some advice-

Each planet is a story.

It has characters, each different in their own way, yet made up of similar driving points

It has a setting in which the characters live, sometimes it's dark and scary sometimes it is bright and cheerful, but the setting will drive the characters, as certainly as the characters can drive the setting.

Or maybe my lack of caffeine is showing.
>>
>>27067
Well then lets go with the standard Carbon.
>>
>>27091
I am not suggesting against it. I am suggesting you guys think how you use such cool ideas to drive everything. Granted we could use some science majors to help with this.
>>
>>27067
My vote remains for silicone life assume complicated doesn't mean "far too difficult to deal with" or "disastrous results"
>>
What species do you wsnt to evolve?
Also Carbon, as Silicon life would move in a contiental pace I believe.
>>
>>27108
>>27108
Also you could make a new element that bonds easier, or make an exotic form of something that bonds easier.

I am really tired guys, I am going to go to bed and then work on this in the morning.

I will let you all think about it.
>>
Another idea to throw around would be having the main solvent of the planet be ammonia instead of water, though this would necessitate the planet being EXTREMELY cold, so it may need to be far from our twin suns.

Also if anyone wants to parse thorugh this page and throw out ideas they find interesting, here it is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothetical_types_of_biochemistry
>>
I would aim for a well-established biochemistry similar to ours. Perhaps we go for a magical element, that favours similar bindings as carbon, but does so at the temperatures and pressures at our planet. As the planet is rather hot, radioactive and full of plasma, the bindings would have to be rather strong, leading to mechanically durable organisms. For extra fun, I vote for making it about half the weight of Carbon.
>>
>>27421
This is a pretty good idea.
>>
>>26996
Radioactive life
>>
>>27421
I just realized, that we would probably also need a substitute for water, so I would suggest making an exotic magic substitute for oxygen in an analoguous way. (Not necessarily for breathing purposes, but as the main ingredient for the solution in which life can happen)
>>
>>27421
>>27611
(Same guy, in case of random lost identity)
In case we only want to use only one type of workaround for one type of problem (need for chemical stability in presence of heat, radioactivity and plasma):
How about introducing an exotic state of matter, which attaches itself to existing atom cores and thereby transforms their chemical behaviour? This would mainly have to happen in a way to adjust the chemical binding strength (needs to be much higher), but also dielectric behaviour, in order to mimic one of the defining features of water, the anomalous heat capacity, just at higher temperatures.
>>
>>27811
Of course, I think such an important material should have some extra quirks to itself. Im just a physicist, perhaps someone wants to look into metaphysics/other established settings for extra quirks/fluff/whatever. This is just brainstorming: It might also have some disadvantages/ unexpected behaviour, though. Perhaps this stuff is attracted to (yet to name and define) abstract concepts like life, complexity or emotions (general or specific). Complexity would probably make the alien artifact a heavily contested sink for this type of ressource.
>>
>>27850
Have we agreed on on the planet yet?
>>
>>27855
>>27855
Pretty sure this is what won:

65% plasma main body with 25% solid land comprised of carbon aerogel floating on the plasma with the remaining 10% being liquid bodies on top of the carbon aerogel islands

Core was tungsten iirc. I don't remember if it was the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd planet from the sun(s) though
>>

Guys, lets go with lifeforms based on tungsten polyoxometalates for this planet, as they'd be a lot better equipped to deal with the searing heat of a ~60% plasma-based planet than carbon-based or silicon-based life would be.
And, the atmosphere wouldn't need to be too dissimilar to ours, as the beings would require two main components: Tungsten (of which there's literally billions of tons of on this planet), oxygen and phosphates (which is similar to our own organic structure, but replaces the carbon with tungsten and aligns the oxygen and phosphate differently).

This could also potentially give the creatures the ability to breathe underwater on other planets, as polyoxometalates can be used as a catalyst to split water into its individual components, enabling our "master" species to survive in even more diverse environments.
>>
>>27907
Fine it could work if the plasma produced by light making it a really dense hot as fuck gas ocean, the life on the planet would start out as solid microbes caused by ionization in the plasma ocean then progress into bigger more advanced creatures, because there is no solid surface feet and hands never develop nor fins rather life simply evolves to move through the plasma via buoyancy making this world a really fucking weird place.

Now at the top of the plasma ocean are lifeforms that stretch out to meet sunlight while also stretching down, these alien trees like the animals can levitate in the bottom plasma ocean and thus there are literal floating forest in this world that you can fly around and shit.

The animals eat the floating forest then those animals that eat from there get eaten by other animals.
>>
>>27917
Some creatures develop tentacles to ensnare prey, others develop jet propulsion and sonar to see around themselves.
>>
>>27917
65% plasma, 25% solid land, 10% liquid on the solid landmass
no idea how that works myself, but there is solid landmass that creatures from the plasma sea can embark on and evolve to live on.
>>
>>27904
>>27929
The landmasses are carbon aerogel , the plasma is comprised of either lead or mercury, and the life-supporting structure should be either tungsten or titanium oxide structures which would allow for the decreased heat. Due to the aerogel beneath it temperatures would be reduced near the center of the islands . The solvent would have to be one that can support high temperatures. The solvent could be liquid sodium chloride which would exist at this temperature. The plasmidic medals will absorb a large amount of the solar radiation. Of course that is for the traditional landmass based life forms. as>>27917 proposes it has been speculated that carbon/silicate dust suspended in plasma could produce its own life-structures. Or we go with both as they could potentially exist at the same time. Carbon based plasmidic lifeforms in the plasma seas and tungsten or titanium based lifeforms on the islands.
has proposed we can also have
>>
>>28141
mercury-based plasma, carbon/silicon-based life forms in the plasma and tungsten-based life on the solid surface? Sounds good to me.

The planet's surface can also be split so that most of the carbon-aerogel is floating on the plasma there, comprising 35-50% of the surface (which is more than our own solid landmasses comprise).
Hell, there could even be a thin crust of colder plasma on the surface-layer of the plasma seas, which would reduce light-production and lower the temperature radiating from it. Then once in a while, a gout of fresh plasma would burst through a crack, like a more violent form of volcanic activity.
>>
>>28222
and now that I think about it, if there would be a colder outer layer of plasma, there would me more chances of life forming, as the temperature wouldn't be as near-star-level like the rest of the plasma.
>>
>>28222
>>28877
of course the layers would stratify although coldest is densest. To fix this we have a layer of plasma that is of a different composition that will be the later that is on top and will be the coldest. Unfortunately, we are talking about plasma here so it will move greatly and violently. However that would create a colder layer.
>>
>>27915
I like Tungsten based life forms
>>
>>29073
well, the colder the plasma gets, the more dense it is, and the hotter plasma pushes it around more. It would make sense that there was the possibility that the hotter plasma would push the colder out of the way and upwards.
Well, either that or the denser plasma sinks to the bottom, leaving the top layers of the plasma sea made out of lighter materials that cool down faster. Well, that could explain how lighter elements like oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, helium, etc. would be apparent in the planet's atmosphere, because they get thrown off the plasma sea with the plasma geysers (is there a more appropriate term?) and cool down to a gas.
>>
It seems we are at an empasse on how to order the elements. I still have to go to work.

>>27929
You still got moons to make.
>>27917
There are solid land outcrops. The whole planet is not an ocean of plasma jusst like how earth is not all water.

I knew this quest would take longer to set up.

So here is what I am going to do- I am going to randomly generate some elemetal distribution just in case you guys don't have it figured out by the time I get back from work. Basically this is the Hard part of the Hard Science in this quest.

I will also give you guys something to think about.

> You still have a few moons to build, so you can make more realistic life on them

>>
>>29490
oh wait, the solid land is carbon aerogel. Still life can form on top of it. Possibly. There is a lot you can do by proper arrangement of elements.

Maybe I am only upbeat because it's humpday for me.
>>
>>29490
ok, elemental distribution:
we need tungsten, oxygen, possibly nitrogen, hydrogen(?), maybe some noble gases, tons of light elements for the plasma (hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, etc.), maybe some precious metals, some heavy metals (osmium, iridium, mercury, lead, bismuth).
I'm not sure about the exact percentages of each of these, but there should be a lot of tungsten, oxygen and phosphorus, the building blocks of our tungsten-based lifeforms.

>>
>>29922
>>30095
maybe some kind of tungsten-based being that evolves to survive in the plasma, on the solid landmass, and in the liquid deposits on the landmass.
Simply put: A tungsten-based victor of the evolutionary race.

Then I'd love to see them develop sapience and plasma/carbon-based technology.

>You can also make exotic forms of matter that do not normally occur at this level.

>you can always say you have an exotic state of the element instead of making up an element. This can make shit so much easier and so much more useful later.

Let's get some metallic hydrogen. (not sure whether it should be liquid or solid)
Also some exotic isotopes.
Maybe eezo (element zero) from the Mass Effect setting?

We probably don't need a significant percentage of any of the exotics that aren't supposed to be a major component of the life-forms we're making. Gold is rare on Earth, yet look at the role it's played in human history and culture. So...make metallic hydrogen as common as gold is on Earth I guess?

This board is thankfully slow.

> Space Whale Migration

You realize that the same thing that makes this an attractive place to build a solar system is exactly why it's a hot spot for space whale migration. This can be a blessing or a curse. Right now- since you don't have any life it's actually quite the boon, you could possibly wrangle a few of these wild whales (Some of which you cannot reproduce, which is quite wonderful!) and domesticate them or have them help raise your baby space whales. However, when they come bak through, which may take a while and life would be about, it could cause some of them to stay.

Some might say this is a good thing, however- when you have a pod of thirty hungry whales, they tend not to care what is on the planet. If you can keep the area rich in food without making the planets looking like a tasty snack, this could turn out to be a good thing.

(If you roll well you can identify the species of whales, including some new ones!)

> Tacheyon tide.

There is a resonant tide of Tacheyon particles that are roaring past you. This is an extremely rare event. It means something could be traveling through time and realities. If any part of the tide touches a star or planet it will fundementally alter it in ways that you cannot control or predict. You could theoretically lense and capture the Tacheyons in a special capture bottle but it will take considerable effort ( a good roll, but no cost of points to you.)
