The home of the godlings has grown cold and empty, except for those who inhabit it. The forms of those within have refined further, wings, hands, tails and colors never seen. Some are like men and some are like monsters and others still defy shape and reason, but for the time they yet live. Most of them.

Y, mightiest of the nascent gods, has crumbled to first dust, then nothing at all, their hunger devouring them despite their might.

Some of the gods huddle together, fighting against hunger and the cold. Meager as the strategy is, it seems to help a little. Above them a pearl blinks into existence, a brilliant warm yellow, and drops toward the three. Which of the three will reach out toward it first?

Available Actions: You may take two actions. At the end of your turn die, unless you have a Domain.

Drink: You reduce the Warm Water by up to three, and increase your Corpus by the same amount.

Attack: You attack one of your brothers and sisters. Choose one. Roll a die with sides equal to your Might. Their Corpus is reduced by the result of the dice roll and is added to the Warm Water.

Refine: Reduce your Corpus by some amount. Increase your Might by that same amount.

Manifest: If you do not have a Domain, you may spend 3 Corpus to acquire one of your choice. This does not cost an action, but does end your turn. Spending your last Corpus to manifest a Domain will not kill you, but does leave you in a vulnerable paralyzed state. Godlings with Insight may spend 2 Corpus instead, but must choose a Domain related to their Insight.
