I bet it was Daraius, finally embracing his passionate lobo side.
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!"
Daraius said: You gotta risk it for the biscuit.
Pony power all the way, yo. The more Brontaurs the better.
If Daraius came to Gaudi, I'd just keep him happy with tea and meat-flavoured donuts.
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.

So, after playing around a bit with cooking... Is there a trick to creating cooking curios, or are they just random (and rare)? I made 33 loaves of bread without getting a curio out of it.
You have a chance to make a piece on the FIRST time you cook food in a Lusternian day. It's only a 5% chance, or 10% if you have a spatula.

Oh... So if I make a hundred loaves in a day, it doesn't improve my odds? Thanks! You just saved me from making hundreds of goods in an attempt at creating a curio piece.
And for reference, it's not the food curios that you can make bottles from to make crit food. It's some sort of cupcake sprinkles curio.

It is pieces for the crit food bottles that you get from cooking. The cupcake sprinkles is one of them (all four colours gets you the rainbow cupcake thingie).
In a somewhat related (read:completely unrelated) skein:
Do we know what 'culturally similar' communities we have? Like, if I need to refer to a particular language/dialect that is big on 'l'amour' and haute couture, I'm clearly talking about Delportian/Delport, and Shanthmark has a very sub-saharan Africa/Steppes of Mongolia feel to it, though Mongolia makes more sense since we also have a very Slavic Paavik. What are the ones we have established?
EDIT: on rereading, my initial phrasing seems a tad insensitive. I'm not looking to equate an in-game culture entirely to a real-world culture, just have a close enough analogue that I can say 'this style of thing from the real world could conceivably be from x place'. with regards to clothing/food/furniture styles so that I can include it without feeling like it's out of place in Lusternia.

I stand corrected!

Given that stars are really just suns that are far off, and There's only one Sun.... where did the stars come from? Does lusternia have constellations?

I guess my second question was phrased wrong, but are any of our constellations named?
Zodiac doesn't really tell me much though, and it has no ingame connection to the stars. Are the Astrology spheres all considered to be what constellations Lusternia has?

On a related note: @Darvellan's help scroll says one of his symbols is a six spoked helm. Is that just a nautical term meaning a ship's steering wheel?
(Don't laugh at me)
