Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
It's not like you need to though, given that you can change the desc of a manse to make a landscape into anything you want, as opposed to portraits, which must be of a target.
Sorry, claiming Yodudane and Elle for my own usage.

You execute the Knockdown maneuver: STRIKE AYI RLEG.
Focusing on her right leg, you strike at Ayi with a menacing double-edged klangaxe. With an elegant stroke, you strike her right leg, knocking her to the ground.
----- KNOCKDOWN KNOCKDOWN -----
Ayi deftly manages to remain standing.
With your keen eye, you notice that dulak from a menacing double-edged klangaxe has poisoned Ayi.
You must wait before you can order your beast again.
There are no poisons or effects on that item at present.
You rub some dulak on a menacing double-edged klangaxe.
You must regain balance first.
You execute the Knockdown maneuver: STRIKE AYI RLEG.
A swirling gateway of brilliant light pierces the air before Ayi, boring a hole through the very fabric of the planes. Ayi ascends confidently through the rotating gate, which shimmers and snaps shut behind her.
A bloodthirsty pegasus spreads crimson wings wide as she prances off to the ether.

In case anyone's curious about the messages when packaging and assembling:
You lay out the materials to construct a polished darkwood chair before you. Then, drawing on your reserves of power, you rig the components to assemble themselves as you seal them away in a nice, neat package, which you tie off with a knot.
You set a package containing a polished darkwood chair on the ground and untie the knot at the top. The sides of the package fall away, revealing a pile of raw materials within. Suddenly, the furniture components spring to life, assembling themselves together to form a polished darkwood chair.
What, no fumbling with blueprints, looking for missing screws and missing parts, no accidentally assembling half of it upside down before noticing? I am disappointed, @Ieptix.

Andala suddenly scoops up a chicken. A chicken jumps out of Andala's hands! Silvanus suddenly scoops up a chicken. A chicken jumps out of Silvanus's hands! Arimisia suddenly scoops up a chicken. A chicken jumps out of Arimisia's hands! A noisy clockwork yoyo catches a chicken with its spin and draws it up into your hands. A chicken wriggles in your hand, trying to escape.

That poor chicken!
Everiine is a man, and is very manly. This MAN before you is so manly you might as well just gender bend right now, cause he's the manliest man that you ever did see. His manly shape has spurned many women and girlyer men to boughs of fainting. He stands before you in a manly manerific typical man-like outfit which is covered in his manly motto: "I am a man!"

Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
Ambassador Daraius Shevat takes a long drag and levels his shaded gaze on Maligorn. "Spend a little more time trying to make something of yourself," he says with a low growl. "And a little less time trying to impress people." He snuffs out the light against the pillar behind him and flicks it negligently aside, prowling off to the northeast.

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

Undergraduate Ino says, "Have you ever tried to eat a clock?"
Ino beams broadly at you.
You say, "I have not."
Undergraduate Ino says, "Oh good. I wouldn't recommend it. it's very time consuming."
Ino taps her nose knowingly.
You look around furtively, bring your hand to your mouth and release a small 'teehee'.
A series of chiming notes, distinctly crystalline, ring out in the distance in a slow, descending
scale.
Undergraduate Ino exclaims, "Like that!"
You look at a luxurious kaftan robe of spun sugar that @Crumkane is wearing:
These are plain grey robes.
You don't understand how big of a smile I had when seeing it wasn't desc.
