You Against the World

The world revolves around the River of Life, a stream that flows 'under' the world, from which all life comes from. The closer the connection to the river, the more fundamental and basic the nature.
That means things scale from being ethereal and powerful (but have little interaction with the world) to being cunning (and a good leader) but magically very weak.

At the start of the game most things are ethereal and as time progress the river becomes more spread out and the game approaches something closer to a realism mod with a fantasy map.

Currently only the first era has been developed.

This mod is vaguely based on Mushishi
