[QUOTE="William Ronald, post: 169801, member: 426"] The Forsaken One: I have a great idea for Athas. Cacti. There should be some in the Baklunish area. Use psionics and technology to modify them. Extra food and water. Plus, you might be able to modify some of them for construction purposes. (Try using psionics and tech to make a cactus the size of a redwood.) There are creatures that build nests in cacti. Now, if you can only find out where all the water on Athas went to. Also, do not be too overconfident. Not everyone on Athas will want to be hive minded. You may have to negotiate with some factions. Remember, in diplomacy, you are lucky if you get most of what you want. Heck, in real life, you are darn lucky if you get most of what you want. So, if they won't join you, make sure they at least like and respect you. (You could probably win a lot of friends by turning over the Dragon Kings' tax collectors over to the crowds. The tax man is never popular -- on any world.:D ) The cacti is, of course, a gift. Similarly, once you get a water table working, there are some modified grasses you could create. See Frank Herbert's Dune series for some good ideas on terraforming Athas. [/QUOTE]
