Ascendancy
"It is now the 2660th year of the world by the Auroran Count, the 1900th year since the gods arose, and by my count the 1573rd year since the first of the cataclysms. It has been 726 years since the return of civilization, 720 years since word of the Yellow thing began to spread..."
"It is by the blessings of the dead ones that I have lived to see this day and it is by the curses of the dead ones that I have suffered to see this day."
"Sinan is gone..."
"626 years have passed..."
"A new time of industry has begun..."
"The grip of the Ascendant has weakened on the Earth..."
"Men walk the lands again, reclaiming their former glories..."
"One day at a time..."
"An age of man..."
"A storm is coming..."
"A new destiny..."

January 1900 (Turn 1, Winter)...
The end of the world has come and went, and the machinations of the races of men have kept going. The world as safe as it has been made is still a dangerous place and the click of the world's clock is a constant reminder that we all have so little time. Even the immortals felt it.
Ah. But such wonders one could see in the short time afforded to the living.

You are free to post however you like however here is the norm from the previous games.
At the top of your post include the location and/or date in bold and/or underlined. If you change location or the time frame make such a thing clear with an additional date line. At the bottom of your post (in a spoiler) declare your actions in a clear way, whether normal actions or something you've come up with.
I'd ask that you run things through some form of spellcheck but as long as it's comprehendable I'm not worried.

The first turn, each player has five actions to spend without spending additional resources. Each turn after this each player has three actions. If you wish to take additional actions you must spend wealth. Four actions total costs 10 wealth, and five actions total costs 30.
If you wish to do something in secret, mark your action as secret and PM me what you're doing with said secret action.

Each turn lasts seven days, beginning and ending on Saturdays. The first week due to its unusual beginning will last longer, starting today (Monday the 31st) and ending on Saturday (the 12th). If you have an issue with this let me know. If you can't keep up with this schedule you have a one week action bank allowing you to post every other week if need be.

If you need to get in contact with me message myself through discord or in a PM here. In my absence JoJo and Novabomb are the authorities on the game world should I be unavailable.
