Creation. 'interval' is the number of turns between invocations of the daemon; this should be at least 1, which causes the daemon to be invoked on each turn. The first execution will be (interval-1) turns in the future - so if interval is 1, the daemon will first be executed on the current turn, and if interval is 2, the daemon will be executed on the next turn.
