Essence of theTerraformer

By consuming this Essence, you become a living Terraformer, capable of bringing dead worlds to life.

• You are immune to any and all environmental issues, such as the lack of air in space, or the crushing depths of the ocean.

• You can teleport from planet to planet that you know of and can simply request your power to take you to the nearest uninhabited planet or star system. You can set requests for the kind of planet you wish to go to and your power will seek out the nearest match. Your speed while on a planet is likewise instantaneous but only while acting in your roll as a terraformer.

  • Your power tends to default to finding uninhabited planets to terraform, but you can go to any planet you yourself are aware of, including earth.

• You must work with already existing planets, but those planets can be anything from a dwarf planetoid to a gas-giant.

• You can set basic info for your planet (such as gravity level, atmospheric pressure and make up, etc) before properly terraforming it. Note that going too far out of the normal bounds of physics can result in odd things happening, such as giving a planetoid the size of Pluto Earth-like gravity might end up with magic gravity creating crystals replacing the core and glowing purple magma as a result.

• Your real work relies on creating 'lands', areas shaped by your will to support certain geological structures and life forms. The more detailed your work, the smaller the area of land you have to work with. Simply declaring an area as a 'desert' could see the land stretch over an entire continent, but trying to build a fully functioning city would have your focus limited to just a few hundred square kilometres at a time (New York City is approx. 800 square kilometres for comparison). 'Theming' a world with a singular planet spanning climate or ecosystem is recommended to make things easier.

• Without some other method, you are limited to populating your planets with earth-based animals (excluding humans), but can pick animals from any period in earth's history up to modern day. Animals are created by your will ex-nihilo, with a basic understanding of how they should survive based on how the animal would have lived back on earth and some minor modifications to survive on the planet you created (dinosaurs wont have too much issue adapting to living on a planet with modern oxygen levels, for instance, but don't expect Carboniferous insects to do the same).

• You can terraform planets with an already existing biosphere. Your power will alert you if changes will negatively affect the existing biosphere and how badly it will affect it. You will also know how best to repair damaged areas, such as from pollution or environmental disasters.
