Re: Blank Slate IC
Rudah to Nirhek
It seems that war an boiling water come from the same source, our Lord of Oceans great temper. Ice does not boil, ice rests. I will show you what I had in mind, and I hope that you continue your work so that I may continue mine.
Rudah then came to the tundra, the gray permafrost surrounding the poles where the land met them. He floated close to the ground, and where the hem of robe grazed the earth tall creatures sprang shivering into being. They had six limbs, like their creator though their hands were dexterous and useful. Their skin was plated with chitinous tissue, and their compound eyes could see far and wide. Their legs were strong and digigrade and made for travel over long distance, their feet were clawed and gripped the ice well. Yet he spared them the pain of hearing, instead noticing loud noises by the vibrations on their skin. Without ears they also had no voice, which pleased The Preserver to no end. They lived long but had few children and each tenth that bore mutation was still-born, so that they would know that what is different is deadly.
Gatekeeper! The souls of the still-born are yours, but I ask that you allow them to pass to Nirhek's realm, so that they may meet the reason for their undoing.
Spoiler2 major acts to create the Kinrii, the bug-people of the polar wastes. Think less Tri-Keen and more humans with four arms and bony plates.
1 minor act to cause all the mutated of the Kinrii to be still-born.Last edited by Sacrath; 2008-11-08 at 01:59 PM.

Cale
"Well then, thats a good thing I suggested a cow," he replied nervously. He then turned towards Rominov, and said, "This seems reasonable. Do you agree?"
He finally turned towards the mad god, and said, "You say and eye for an eye, but I say turn the other cheek. And if that cheek is offended, turn another cheek. Mortals live in limited life spans, because without death, life is pointless."Last edited by Baxter190; 2008-11-08 at 02:01 PM.

Of course. Once your realm is complete, all your worshipers will pass to you. Until then, they will rest in your portion of my realm.Last edited by Krrth; 2008-11-08 at 02:01 PM. Reason: Spelling. Doh!

Raminov
Raminov jerked his head in a quick jerk. Two bovine a month it shall be then. He relayed this information in divine messages to his people, that to safely traverse the seas two Plains Bulls a month must be sacrificed to the seas. He turned to Nirhek. Bloodshed is indeed a necessary part of life, as is death. However, unless you wish to experience this insight first hand, perhaps you should watch your movements...very...carefully Raminov bared his large powerful teeth.Caesar Asmodeus by Andraste

Re: Blank Slate IC
Rudah, the Preserver
I must agree with Cale, death of any kind is to be avoided at any cost. If you wish to deal with sinners, I can easily teach your people to bind and hold, to lock and contain, so that the sins of those imprisoned might be remembered and avoided."I'll give you a 10 second head start; if I catch you, I eat you."

Moghor thought nothing of that little argument.
"So, Raminov, what do you have planned for your people? I have been wondering what is the meaning of life on this planet, myself. As long as they value strength and hard work, I'll be pleased."Last edited by Kaiser Omnik; 2008-11-08 at 02:20 PM.

to Cale ha! an eye for an eye would leave me with several oddly shaped holes in my head and everyone else with infections. I fail to see the problem. and you still haven't answered my question on the angels.
and what do you mean? the gatekeepers have no fear of death, how is death needed for life?

thank you for the nice gift, they'll make great fodder for my new home!Spoiler

Re: Blank Slate IC
Syn
Syn's eyes floated in the darkness of space and looked upon the world with disgust. The gods had taken the purest most beautiful form and bastardized it with their actions. But worst of all was their meager concept of sight. It was in darkness that true sight and true form could be seen. Light was nothing more than attempt to hide the purest of all things.
Cale. Syn whispered to himself. As he moved toward the Sun.
And floating in the vastness of space that was between the Earth and the Sun, Syn stared deep into the light source. Growling in disgust he turned and faced the Earth. Letting out a cosmic howl, he cast his darkness upon the earth, engulfing it. But the darkness lasted only mere moments in the light of the Sun. But its lasting effects could be seen. Every creature, every plant, everything was now followed by darkness. Whether in the presence of the dimmest candle or in the brightest daylight, all would carry with them the reminder of darkness and its power. All now cast shadows.
And each shadow held within it the doorway to Syn's realm.
Spoiler
1 Major Act - Now shadows exist. And each is a doorway to Syn's yet-to-be-created realm of darkness.

and I haven't killed anyone.

Re: Blank Slate IC
The serpent turns back to Ramoniv"What that so terrible?" Then it flies to where Syn is "We have a plane where there is no light. Only the cold dark grip of the ocean. I welcome you."

Re: Blank Slate IC
Raminov
Raminov snarled lightly at Cale, and continued speaking to Moghor, where his mood lightened Then in that we are agreed. The Ruskies are as I am, we value strength and hard work, we value community and togetherness. All members of a society have a purpose, and they all work to fulfill that purpose to the best of their abilities, and in this way there is equality. I would bring this gift to all the races of the world, so all are viewed as equals, from leaders to the poorest farmers.Caesar Asmodeus by Andraste

Re: Blank Slate IC
Kuto
Kuto smiled at the little god. He soid nothing, but it was a nice distraction from the actions of the others.
Speaking of which...
Will you look at that? Bad kinds of change, conflicts and sacrifices already.
He spoke to Barat-Kali and Raminov
I could argue that I have a right to those who die at sea as well. I can make the seas and the coast much more dangerous as I chose. I can also chose to make them calmer, such is the power of the winds. I do not like to show my power off in that manner, but I shall not be ignored. I will require no sacrifices, but I would like a prayer or two every now and then. It gets so quiet up here when all the trouble is caused down here.

"True, but you encouraged a war, and a battle between gods. I'm no fool," Cale said, before appearing before Syn. Cale bowed before the new god, and said, "Hello, I am Cale, the light god. And who are you?"

Re: Blank Slate IC
Parda
In yet another ritual, Parda chants and chants for hours.... he continues to chant incantations for long hours.... making everything exquisitely perfect. Parda imbaues his power into a golden circle traced on the ground with the symbol of a lightning bolt in the center. The chant was finished.... Somewhere on the unnamed planet (please name it) thousands of Sprites appeared through the incantation.

Re: Blank Slate IC
Cale thought nothing of beiong ignored, and said to the darkness god, "Well then, I hope we can make a balance between the light and darkness." Cale then turned towards the world below them, Cadinae.

Re: Blank Slate IC
Rudah, the Preserver
I agree with Cale, balance fights to keep itself balanced and against change that would shift its stance. Balance will keep everything from dissolving into meaningless conflict.Last edited by Sacrath; 2008-11-08 at 02:30 PM.

Re: Blank Slate IC
Moghor Rezamir
Moghor sent a message to all the gods and goddesses of the world.
"There seem to be many arguments between the gods. Why don't we create a place, a neutral ground, where we can meet to hold council? This way, we won't have to teleport everywhere."

Re: Blank Slate IC
gthe grat wizard Wrharheit racthed his chin as he considered what to do with his power, and then it him him qwith a cry of EUREKA!, and a wave of his staff he imbued the Doppleganers with a natural aptitdue for magick, and with this came a resistance to the magicks of others. The prupose behind this was to give them protection from the magical detection, and attacks of others.
After all how fitting would it be for the god of wizardy's people to fall to his own art?
Spoiler
Major act to give them spell resistance, and a set of SLA's that are bult around avoiding detection.

Re: Blank Slate IC
The Quiet God saw all that was creation, with its conflicts and its wars, and smiled. New life was born every day, and in death life was born again. The cycle was perpetuated, and Ikibe was pleased.
From the ether, a new plane rose. Ikibe could feel the hand of those who would be his brothers, and made his way there.
Unto the plane, an act of will drew forth a place of power. The Godshall was an abstract concept, a place of strength and will, a fabulous work of art mixed with the ultimate in defensive architecture. It was an impenetrable fortress of divine proportions, raised up from the cold earth. The dimensions twist the mind and warp the body, fiendish traps litter corridors whose impossible navigation shall be the stuff of legends. The battlements themselves soar over the horizon. It was not a place that welcomed outsiders uninvited.
The keep was the most majestic structure of all. A single tower of deep blue Elderglass, carved with rune and glyphs to an extent that it seemed to glow with eldritch lines. So powerful was its edifice that on a clear moonless night it would show through the barrier between the planes and be revealed to the mortal world.
SpoilerYes, this was a bit of a c&p, I just woke up, sue me. ><
1 minor act used in conjuction with Sacrath and Moghor for plane creation.
Godshall is visible on the night of new moon.
I'll make a post for the Jakaru when I get home tonight. A lot will have happened with them.
