So, despite everyone voting for the VR game instead, I still wanted to do something like this. Fortunately, the way this game works means I can quit easily run it in a whenever I have a moment of spare time method. If you are familiar with the Fantasy Evolution game, you may notice I (Stole) borrowed some things from it...

Turns should go up somewhere between once a day and once a week.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dawn of Mana---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A primordial world, smothered by massive storms of mana. Gods came upon this world, and calmed it, stabilized it's magic, and began to slow process of colonizing it. But these Gods were of limited power, and could not make everything from scratch. So they created primitive creatures to colonize this world, and then inhabited it themselves, sinking deep into it's divine hollows, and entering a state of hibernation, allowing their sleeping wills to guide their creations towards complexity.

Creature:
Overall Description - A small pale worm one to five centimeters in length that feeds on raw magic. Within, it has basic organs, but they move about and change constantly, and do not actually function, as they are currently uneeded. It can live in any biome, due to the sheer amount of it's food source around it, and it needs to, given the nature of the landscape.
Population - Very Low/Growing Rapidly; our creature was only recently created, but has no competition (yet) and plenty of food.
Diet - Magic, our creature simply sucks in raw mana from the surroundings as needed.
Reproduction - As it grows in size, our creature splits into two or more identical versions of itself. Male and female varieties also exist, and occasionally fuse together, before splitting apart into individuals with different combinations of traits then either parent.
Elemental Attunement - Our worm is not attuned to any specific element.
Patron God(s) - Our worm has not garnered the attention of specific god.

World:
Surroundings - A shifting land that still churns with mana storms, charging everything with magic. There are no distinguishing features, the ground is wet then dry, mountains form then crumble, mighty trees burst forth then fall, lands are flattened then disrupted, and seas flow in then out. However, the magic is gradually calming and settling, and the land is becoming more stable.
Creatures - Our worm.

Gods
Lords of Five Lands - Five gods, each of which represents a certain landscape and the elements within it, the landscapes are swamp, mountain, forest, plain, and island (each lord is allied with the lord next to it (forest is allied to mountain and plain, for example) and a rival of the other two). In deep hibernation, these Gods would have great power if awakened.
Sisters of Solstice - Two goddesses, Virva, representing light-in-darkness, and Taina, representing darkness-in-light. Very cheerful and festive.
Sigrun - Queen of victory and mistress of warfare, she approves of creatures who are on the rise, and disapproves of things resting on their laurels or refusing to adapt. Oftentimes grim but with a surprisingly deep sense of humor.
Golgoth - God of corruption and decay, he seeks to pollute the world into his own vision, and the corruption of the other god's plans. He grants mutations to those associated with decay, which often come with equal downsides.
Son of the Sun - A mysterious deity, his name is a closely guarded secret. He stands aloof over this world, and governs things of pure mana.
Jeifanika - A goddess representing the sky, air, and things above the ground. Lacks power, but controls the flow of winds and storms enough to affect the Five Lords' lands. Seeks life that never needs to touch the ground.
The King Below - A genderless deity representing the underground, resents the surface and all things associated with it, specifically the Lords of Five Lands.

Our creature wanders aimlessly, what land will form around it?
A - Swamp (primary element: water, secondary element: earth)
B - Mountain (primary element: fire, secondary element: earth)
C - Forest (primary element: earth, secondary element: water)
D - Plain (primary element: air, secondary element: earth)
E - Island (primary element: water, secondary element: air)

Someone want to suggest a name for our creature?
