Solo Warmachine, Game 2-ish
As the previous setup was smashed by the cat, the new one is this: The Cryx have set up in a destroyed refinery, and are mostly Bane Thralls, with a couple of Corpseeaters. The Protectorate are Knights Exemplar and a couple of Paladins of the Wall, with two Repenters.
The Meek?
Would anyone really believe that the meek will inherit the earth, when all of these adventurers are getting everything? What do you think?

The Book Of Alchemy
Inspired by the posts on religion in fiction that Porky made recently, I'm going to share something I came up with a while ago, though it's not finished.
This is the official religion for Canzibar, the City of Bells on Morilar.
Book of Alchemy, 1-1: In the beginning, there was only The Brewer. Then He said "It pleases me not to have nothing around me; I wish for pleasant things such as are in my mind."
And so He created the Stars, and the Moons, and the Sun. And he placed that which made the Stars, and the light of the Sun, and the Moon into His alembic, and purified them. And so were made men, and the other races. And He placed them upon the land. But The Brewer was not pleased with His creation; and He said "This earth is barren; nothing grows upon it, the people starve, and are forced to eat each other for their food." And so He placed plants upon the earth, and the tools of Alchemy, and those races which he had placed here created with them the beasts. [Porky: "And to encourage those races which he had placed here to purify themselves, the land was made finite; and the infinite lopped off; and the vastness of the space around was as a protection against the stink."]
Book of Alchemy, 21-10: And He took the Pumpkin, and the Watermelon, and placed them in His calcinator, and burned them to ash, and said "You shall not consort with these fell fruit, nor any of their kin, lest the weight of your guilt strike you down."
Feel free to add more - there's lots of stuff that's not done yet, and I welcome input.

Hysionide Crystals
Where these are from, and even the origin of the name remains a mystery. Some believe that they were found by the Knights of the Astral Sea, others that they are a transplant from The City. Wherever they hail from, these strange formations have fascinated adventurers and tourist for years. So what are they? Hysionide Crystals are either sentient or containthe minds of some long forgotten race. However they refuse to help with anything greater than "Where did my sunglasses go", even when it directly threatens them. Some speculate that they are unwilling to interfere out of religious or personal reasons - some variety of "it's your time, not ours", while others think that they are simply bored, and may actually welcome destruction.

New Spell: Sussuration
Golim whispered quickly, hardly pausing to breathe. He knew that if he stopped the pressure would be ruined.
On the other side of the room, Datanis the Cheat shook his head, trying to throw off the nagging feeling that a throng of people were muttering and whispering all around him. There was a crowd, yes, but they were acting just as they had any of the other times he'd come to the Pickled Dragon.
Eventually, the thief snapped. He began to thrash his arms wildly, as though trying to hit someone he couldn't see, and screaming "Shut up! Will you just shut up!". As there was no-one near him but the patrons of the inn, and they had grown quiet when he first leapt up, he was assumed to have gone mad, and was taken away. Nobody noticed the shadowy figure that slipped out behind them, still whispering feverishly.
2nd/1st level
Sussuration (Mage/Illusionist)
Sussuration allows the caster to magnify his voice, so that, to one person it appears that they have a mass of people whispering around them.
