Apologies if Pruinus personality is not yet consistent. I only know her role, I'm not sure how her personality will play a part in the role and I don't think she does yet!
"Motherly" is the word I'm using to describe Pruinus right now, whether that be gentle affection, harsh punishment, or uncontrollable rage at those who dare hurt her creations.
Myself, I think I'm going to start creating things soon. As nice as it is having us four and the universe, I think we should start adding gods and defining the planet itself.

Well, we do have cardinal directions, and a little patch of grass, a sun, and the first Leage of Extraordinary Divinities.

And this is totally why TASOE is needed: when there's conflict between two players, neither wants to lose face. So, what we get is a lot of posturing and fancy words and not nearly enough violence and smashy smash. If Leaf was a proper antagonist, Zebus could crush him. And vice versa. Instead, we have c-span. A more enjoyable c-span, to be fair, but...
Not that this is actually just an argument for me to be allowed in. Nope, nuh uh. :P
That said, I can totally see TASOE trying to work with either god, if a peaceful conclusion isn't reached

Thought, I think the idea of you and Ara arising at the same time (being both planes and the like) makes the most sense. Why don't the two of you talk, and maybe we'll get you in end of the week or so?

for FOUR AP, James, I think you can totally make a season of cold that comes every few years. It could come more often, too, or last longer.
As for the berries... do they have magical properties? If so... yeah, you might want to spend an AP on them. If they're just berries that grow at a particular time, don't worry about it.

Topheh, I was more worried whether FOUR AP could create a season which effects the entire universe, dropping temperatures EVERYWHERE EVER.
As for the berries, I don't intend for them to have magical properties. They just grow at winter and taste REALLY NICE. :D

*shrugs* I'm fine with it, although if you want to use the fluff that you have, you *could* put it as: 3 AP: Create primal spirits of cold 1 AP: Command primal spirits to make it cold every few 'years' (whatever that means when the sun goes around the planet and not vice-versa ) Entirely your decision... both work just fine.

I want to keep what I'm doing the same as it is now, so is that still 4 AP?
Although I kinda liked the idea of time being vague in this story, as we have no idea how much time the gods have spent/wasted chatting already, whats a good real life into game world comparision of how long time is?
I'd like to know this so I can see how many weeks it is before I declare winter and how many weeks/days before I declare winter is over again.

Yeah, about that...
the problem with a game like this is that short events take too long and long events can go by very quickly. Go to the wiki and read the history of Aetherial Realms, where we actually kept track of the 'years' that had passed. You'll see wars that last 4000 years, individuals who survive for millenia, and massive events (like ice ages) which last only 200-some. Basically, time is *quite* relative, and we've long since given up trying to set a defined 'pace.'
So, in answer to your question: Winter comes whenever you want it to come! My instinct would be to have it last a turn (a week) and occur every month or so.
