This is the rough draft of something that we plan on calling something along the lines of "Morkai's Deception". It will eventually be an RP or something. Enjoy.



Creation began when Jek, the eternal spirit, created the Sun; a gigantic sphere that houses an immense mechanical creation that drives forward time and anchors the universe, known as the Clockwork. In order to vent the massive amount of energy produced by the Clockwork, the Sun radiates out light in every direction; making it appear as if it were a giant ball of flames.

Jek was, for millennia, happy with his creation. He was content to observe the Clockwork as the years crawled by, until a foreign spirit approached him.

Where Morkai came from, Jek did not know. All that Jek knew was that Morkai was a separate entity, who didn't seem to be malevolent. Morkai spoke to Jek, and asked if he was lonely, being without a companion. Jek explained that he was not lonely, as he had the Clockwork to entertain him. Morkai asked Jek if the Clockwork ever malfunctioned, and Jek answered yes; he explained that it often falters, and that Jek hates mending it.

Morkai, upon hearing this, hatched the first of his plans. He convinced Jek into creating a spirit to maintain the Clockwork, so that Jek could watch the Clockwork without interruption. Jek thought this was a brilliant idea, and created the spirit; which he named Time. Morkai left as abruptly as he arrived, and Jek went back to watching his creation, this time without hitch.

A few eternities later, Morkai once again emerged from the void. He spoke to Jek once more, asking if he ever grew tired of the clockwork. Jek gave a very strong no, saying that he adored the clockwork, and would never change it. Morkai told Jek that he had no intentions to change the clockwork, but rather he had intentions to create other things, to hold Jek's attention.

Morkai suggested another sphere, like the Sun, that would be home to many spirits. The spirits would act like the cogs within the clockwork; they would make up the mechanism of this new sphere, which was to be called Algor. Jek asked what the purpose of this sphere was, to which Morkai asked what the purpose of the Clockwork was; to which Jek found no suitable reply. As such, Jek set about creating Algor, which took the form of a planet to orbit the sun.

After Jek had created Algor and carefully placed the billions of spirits that were to inhabit it, he sat back to watch his creation. Jek had made each spirit equal in terms of power and potentiality, in order to preserve the order of Algor. Morkai, however, had other plans; he scattered his hand across Algor, redistributing the power within the spirits, at random.

Some spirits gained so much power that they became gods (though their power was limited to Algor), and others lost so much power that degenerated into little more than beasts. Some were unchanged, remaining as spirits, which often quickly became subservient to the Gods that formed; some, however, became strange creatures; halfway between Spirit and Beast, not unconscious but certainly not fully aware; they became man.

This unbalancing resulted, unsurprisingly, in chaos. The more powerful Gods warred amongst each other, eating each other and establishing their dominion over the lesser spirits; Man fought amongst each other too, but established no dominion over beasts. Despite all this fighting, there was no death; every creature was immortal. The only ceasession of life was when one god subsumed and absorbed another.

One God rose from the fray above all others; he was not the strongest, at first, but he was the most vicious; he consumed those stronger than him and enslaved those weaker than him. His name was War, and he rose to be the king of Algor; he controlled every spirit, each of which controlled a small section of the planet; thus, he ruled over all Jek's creation.

War relished violence, evidenced by titles given to him by his spirits and by man; he was known by many names, including the Huntlord and the Warmaster. He adored bloodshed so much that he commanded the entire realm into a war that was to be perpetual, that he came to call "The Eternal Game". As every creature was immortal, it seemed to be that this state of war would last forever. Jek, for the first time, experienced hatred.

He screamed as loud as he could, a roar that echoed throughout all of creation. He shouted Morkai's names throughout the heavens, his summon heard through every inch of the cosmos. The trickster god arrived shortly after, asking if Jek called.

Jek explained to Morkai that he hated Algor with all his being, and told Morkai to fix it- as Jek knew what Morkai had done to the balance of the realm. Morkai agreed that it was right that he should fix it; however, he explained that he lacked the power over Algor to make the needed changes. Jek agreed hastily, for his disgust of Algor made him willing to accept any terms.

Morkai, with a metaphysical smile, went to Algor to try to set things right; or at least, to change something. He approached War with a grin on his face, and asked to speak to him. War, at first, tried to fight Morkai; but quickly realised that this was to no avail, when his blows seemed to have no effect whatsoever upon the Laughing God.

Morkai chuckled at the infantile display; he mocked war, saying that he thought War was supposed to be the strongest in the land. War said that he was the strongest, as evidenced by his dominion over the planet; Morkai, naturally, challenged this, suggesting that War could not even fight properly.

At this point, War was confused; he told Morkai that he had won almost every battle he had ever waged. Morkai told War that every time, his opponent got back up; he had never struck down a combatant permanently. Morkai even suggested that War could, as he was now, never do this.

War laughed. He knew full well that he could smite any creature in his realm; and, as a demonstration of this, he ripped out the soul of the mightiest human warrior at the time and tore it asunder, and then threw the pieces out of Algor and into the great voids.

This simple action bore grave consequences; the first man had died, mortality had been created, life and death had came into play; and they required an attendant God. The bones of Algor, the natural laws and orders of things, tore War into two pieces. One half was to become the God of Life, and the other became the God of Death. His corpse was formed from the energy of this rip, and came to be known as the First Husk, or simply as War; it was a gigantic clockwork creature that wondered the face of Algor, inspiring hatred and violence wherever it went.

Ironically, the first man did not truly die; his spirit began to condense and gather together in the void, fed by the radiation of the Sun. It grew larger and larger, until it became a sphere of sorts, roughly a third of the size of Algor. It orbited the planet, and eventually came to act as an eye for the Gods, so that they may observe vast areas of the planet at once. The side of it that faced Algor was scarred with a gigantic eye, with a blood red iris. This sphere came to be known as "The Moon", "The Bloat", or "The Spy". The Moon, being a fickle soul, was unfortunately in a constant state of decay; it'd slowly collapse over the period of a few months, giving it many different lunar phases, until eventually it was completely destroyed. When the Moon is gone, a New Moon has to be constructed; meaning that the Gods of Life and Death have to work together, with Death supplying the souls to reconstruct it and Life being the architect. During the period of the moon's absence, known as "An Empty Sky", men and beast could act free of the eye of the gods; which is why the Gods were always quick to rebuild their Spy.

Now that Man and Beast were mortal, they began to grow weary of war. It was not long before the Eternal Game was over, and Algor began to cultivate its first civilizations. However, many spirits were killed as the Game was coming to a close. These too formed husks that roamed the Earth, but their souls did not go on to form Gods; rather they went to Death, who then gave them to Life, to either build a new moon or to give them back to the Earthbones, where they would eventually be recycled into newer life forms.

This system presented one problem; the decay of the Moon allowed energy to leave Algor, and enter the void; but there was only a finite amount of energy upon Algor. Eventually, the planet would run dry.

Morkai saw this, and also saw that no civilization had been able to flourish yet, as they were all too busy hunting to be able to learn about the world around them. He informed Life of the problem of the sustainability of the planet, who became extremely distressed; but he was calmed, when Morkai told him that there was a solution.

Morkai told Life of Plants, which would serve as generators of souls. They would take in energy from the sun, and transfer it into a soul to be eaten by another creature. These stellar-soul converters would allow prevent the planet from being sapped dry of souls, and- unbeknownst to Life- would allow Man to get a foothold upon the planet. Life thought this was a brilliant idea, and began to turn the whole of Algor into a lush oasis, which Man, of course, was quick to exploit.

I haven't seen something on ROBLOX take my interest in a long time.
This is all a backstory of the creation of the world, so there's no way for me to tell what the actual RP will be about, but that you're willing to put this much into it is promising.
