OCC/Casting Call: Young Gods

[PoliteSuccubus]

Someone just asked: Can we send dreams?

And I said:

I would say...

If you were a dream god
OR
It's one of your followers
OR
It's one of your minor gifts

You could speak to them directly in their dreams....

Other wise you would have to ask a dream god to send a message for you.

Everyone can send omens or portents via seers, orcles, or some such....

Eventually people will begin common sayings because they will be able to read your omens...

Like "There goes a flock of sparrows over Jeb's house....he's son will be leaving on a quest soon, I wager."

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

More clarifcation.....

Someone else just asked, how do we keep track of our clerics and followers?

And I said:

In the beginning it should be easy, you'll have one high prist and he'll be your major puppet in interacting with the masses....

And you'll prob have some major followers as well, people you set in motion for a course of action by love or hate or trade you will prob remember...

But as your temples grow and your followers swell, you won't be expspected to remember all of them.....

Remember:

When you begin you have one temple
No Clerics
No Followers

People see your temple as just another building, you haven't gained enough notice for people to worship and bring you tribute.

Your frist goals should be then to gain at least one cleric and some followers....it's your frist challenge as a new god.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

How do Gods Meet?

There are three ways for the gods to meet:

In the courtyard of the gods (that's what it's basically there for, to meet, greet, smooch, make and break deals)

In the flesh on their travels

And

When their followers overlap and put shrines and temples next to each other.

Remember: Where ever you have a shrine or temple you can go there instantly!

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

There are two gentlemen who are PMing me without cleaning out their own PM boxes.......*hint, hint* Remember, you have three folders, inbox/sent messages/message tracking and your PM box can only hold 100 messages TOTAL.


On another note:

Bunnies, are you going to have your Eternal Gear have a follower invent bronze? Or did you not like that idea?

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

Ok, looking good...getting some kinks worked out...

Bunnies, thank you for making laugh today...your post was tooo cute!

I think of "Data-the way way early years"

Kam and Morgoth, thanks for being so easy to work with. I was really afraid of offending and you both made me feel at ease. Very insightful questions, both of you, which will help us all in the future, I'm sure!

I'll be leaving for my camping trip tomorrow afternoon and gone for four days, and I'll see you all when I get back! *although I know I'll check in before I actually go!*

 

[Morgoth]

No problem, Polite. I must say, its a pleasure writing with you. It really is.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

Ok, nit picking, I know...

But Role Play out actions, k guys?

 

[poohlive]

If you are still taking applications:

Enden
God of Justice and Truth.


When he is seen, Enden is tall and very elegant. He stands well over six feet, with golden lighted brown hair, and dark pupiled eyes. He usually wears a white robe, and has a long bow on his back.
Three powers would be the power of karma: able to make a good deed be recognized and a bad deed be punished. The power of sight: Able to make a person see past lies or trickery or emotions to the truth lying underneath it all. Finally, the power of judgment: Able to help anyone who wishes to seek revenge for a wrondoing he felt has been cause to him. This power only works if it is truly needed, and if the person getting revenge will give nothing more than he lost.
His totem animal, which he is often spotted as, is a giant Cougar.
Totem Plant: Ivy
Element: Sand.
Symbol: An hourglass.

poohlive, I like the concept of your God, but there is one problem, I already picked the Oak Tree as my totem plant.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

Pooh, it would be lovely to have you, come on in, the humanity is fine.

 

[Abraxas Winterlight]

& I took Death, working on my character now

 

[Abraxas Winterlight]

ok, I got this character pre-approved by the Mistress of this thread, so I will be posting my character & working on my intro later (2 year old spoiled rotten little boy willing that is

Name: Carradan
Portfolio: Death, The Afterlife,
Totem Animal: The Owl
Symbol: Infinity(afigure “8” intertwined)
Avitar (the Dieties form on Earth): A man in black robes. His head has three faces. One is a horrific visage of a horned human face with fine scales for skin, bloodred eyes, and a living serpent for a tongue. The second is a skull, and the first a kind human face, with light brown hair and blue eyes.

Minor Powers: Can tell if a person died at their appointed time, or was “helped”; Can see and speak with spirits; Can call a spirit back from the lands of the dead to answer questions.

Carradan has rule over the Lands of the Dead, and of the transition of souls to those lands. He also controls which souls are released for rebirth into the world ( Most stay, but some, like heroes, get reborn).

 

[kamalw1]

Hey Abraxas. It looks like your God and mine may be good friends.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

If Kane accepts Drooms challenge and does not use any of any of his powers it should be a near thing. Droom became warlord via right of arms, which means that he bested in a fair fight everyone above him; and he heads the clan and his war party. He's wily and experienced.

Bunnies: I see what your doing with your PC, but in one week, even with you god aiding, there wouldn't be a lot of bronze to go around yet. Remember, everything is done by hand, includeing the mining. To just make the bronze ready out of the materals at hand would take a week. To make items requires longer, and your god can not make all craftsmens skilled in this new materal overnight. Otherwise I like what your doing.

Welcome Lady, AB, and Pooh. I look forward to seeing your stuff.

Swampy, where are you? I need some Laughter to lighten the place up!

I'm not sure I follow you could you copy/paste the part of the post in question? If it's about the caravan, they have all sorts of finished products and are actually holding on to bronze for now. The transformation of the tools was within his powers (to improve the quality of stuff). I don't think I have posted anything about a super abundance of bronze, so I would be appreciative if you could tell me what it is I did.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

Oops, my bad!

This is the sentence I misread:

It had only taken a week of subtlety to get the mortals of Bahaus to elect to have a temple built of their own free will.

I plead that I'd just gotten back from camping and was waiting for my turn in the shower.

 

[SwampThing]

The Goddess, small.

My post, not so small.

 

[kamalw1]

SwampThing, I enjoyed the post. It was like something out of a movie.

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

Something to inspire us all to write so well, we will become THE envy of the RPG board!

 

[Morgoth]

I agree. Nicely done, Swamp.

 

[SwampThing]

Hey, thanks!

 

[PoliteSuccubus]

AB is now on board, and with his sly wit and multiple-personality disorder things should start getting interesting!

lol.

*rubs her hands together and cackles with glee*

 

[Abraxas Winterlight]

what multiple personality disorder?
I'm just under-bodied.

[PoliteSuccubus]

If you look at the Eternal Gear you will see you kinda step on each others toes. We do need a god (dess) of learning, or theater, etc.

Give it some thought and get back to us
