Ya know... That thing where you can tall tompeople but not in character. Keep it civil.

Well, we got five. Get to know one another IC and OOC. I will wait for one or two more to start the game.

Hi everyone, nice to meet you all

In reply to Ao (msg # 1):

Konnichi-wa(Hello)...!~ Nice to be game with you all.

Nice to meet everyone...it has been a very long time since I did any rping lol

I'm hoping we get someone evil just to spice things up :)

The fickle fates can falter fabulously laid plans, even with Evil erroneously amiss.

Well I'm not evil but ambition knows no morality lol

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 8):

Oh, the suspense. :D

Alrighty, that is Six and I think that is enough. i will open the first Aeon at midnight GMT+6.

Keep close track of your ACTs as I am very strict about that. Please be creative and thoughtful in those ACTs. Have a wonderful game folks!

First updates up. You will note that my Ao is a bit more narrative than most. Careful of things like Storms>At ospjere as it borders on  the domino effect, which could invoke the wrath of Ao! Looking forward to round the second.

Sorry for the weird atrological choices...the idea of a binary system with tidle affected bodies is just too fascinating and I just couldn't let this start with a cookie cutter set up :p

Last minute add to the game, welcome Savra.

Thanks! My friend (playing Felka) mentioned that y'all could use some evil, and it was too great of an opportunity to pass up.

Looking forward to playing with you all.

New set of updates. Hope folks are just sving their ACTs.

Just saving here might post after work

Flowereaters and Flesheaters...methinks I smell something ominous brewing....

No kidding. I went to sleep last night with nothing happening. Woke up to madness.

Well, there's a bit more madness now. Being the mean god is tough...

Yeah, when folsk save ACTs crazy stuff occurs. Anyway, Sabra's last was a doozy of an update. Don't forget their are other ppaces in the void. Erewhon is a very interesting place though, yeah?

How is everyone enjoying it so far?

Sorry if I piled too much on there! I'll try to make ACTs more frequent/staggered, especially if they're going to be significant.

Definitely enjoying this, especially Ao's additions!

I am teying to be more than an observer and arbitrator. It is up to me to figure out how all these creations fitntogether and tell a story!

Also, make more planets and such? Otherwise, we might be nearing and Aeon vote.

Dances around happily thinking of what to do with bonding sylphs.

It will be awesome!

I need to develop the moon...

In reply to Ao (msg # 1):

Just a heads up, I'm gonna be saving my ACTs for a plan I have that will require three ACTs, so don't be surprised if you hear from me for three days.

I was feeling into it today! Sorry about my affinity for double acts. And go on with your bad self Tamiko; its more fun to be grandiose!

It was fun is all. See what you did?

Hehehe this; this I can approve of. I like drama :P I am guessing the Felkan Wahedeen are all Flowereaters, which leaves by default the Bartimaeun Order have all the Flesheaters and a generous proportion of Flowereaters...tantalizing to see how this drama unfolds :P (I am deprived of creativity and drama in daily life; I deal with numbers and contracts and the people who buy contracts off clients all day so...yeah. If I seem dramatic, I am just repressed is all...)

Are you still planning on ending the age soonish? And what is this empire game concept?

I wouldn't mind the end of the age actually. Seems like most of the wheels are in motion. And I'm also pretty curious about the empire building aspect.

I second that opinion. Quick transitions initially allow for more long term creativity. Only I wanna do I have left is make the moon a potential ground for drama

I am debating Age 2,  only issue is there is only the one planet. First time I have ever seen that, ever. Just one solar system? I will call for a vote on sunday I think.

Mmmm...I have a possible solution for that for tomorrow...not more planets per say but certainly more room for acts to play out.

Since people asked, the Empire Game idea uses all the same rules for ACTing but will have a very different set of restrictions and parameters as the group each adopts one nation on a planet and controls them for one age. Sort of a micro manage as the world shifts around them. Think civilization or that ilk of game. You play the nation more than the leader. i'd do it in between ages as a sort of allowing you all to input in that level of the game. Not sure on the details as of yet. Might put it off for now. Just an idea.

In twelve hours, Aeon 1 will be done. Things to be aware of, I will award domain ACTs today and pantheons are available if people wish to form them. Let me know if you are forming a Pantheon or have an argument for any ACTs falling under your domain.

Alright, fair warning time, Ivalice and Tamiko have unused ACTs that will expore at midnight.

Tamiko, Bartimaeus, Felka, Tur'Eum, Amraphel, and Savra all may take one ACT within their domain as they met the Domain ACT limit already. Please be sure this ACT falls within your domain. Acting out of your domain for this act will invoke Ao's Wrath. I will start working on the passing of time post, probably in chunks, Monday and Tuesday. We should start The Second Aeon mid next week.

Gotta say, I'm not even mad the Felkans didn't make it. (Well maybe a bit sad :( ) But I'm really enjoying how this is going. It's awesome. Just wanted to say thanks for putting so much work in :)

Thanks, it's been a real task. It's half done though. The Felkans aren't out yet though. I am rolling for the rounds. WE also have a nice little surprise coming up at the end I think you will all enjoy.

Pretty awesome if I do say so myself :p

In reply to Ao (msg # 37):

You do realize "Kappa" means "river sprite" in Japanese, right?

Its also a greek letter.

I know what Kappa is in japan and Greece. I may have chosen this word on purpose.

I'm loving these posts; they're incredible! And such fun to read. I really appreciate all the work you've put into this RP - it's been great so far and your additions to the posts and the time passing between the Aeon's make things so much more interesting.

I may also be guilty of lifting names for my creations from other languages.

Lol wahedeen is a loose arabic translation for the first people

I am trying to weave what you guys provided me with into a single story. We are nearing the end of it though. Time for a surprise!

Also, take notes of things you want to affect. Anyone decent at maps? This is getting tough to keep track of in my brain. Of course, this would be a tough map to make with the two layered world thing...

Well I love the story but as for maps....you can probably count me out. I am god awful at art.

Ao and I are working on something on the map side.  Experimenting with a technique to see if it will give us what we want/need.

Woot, I will have my last two bits up tonight and The Second Age will open Thursday.

Alright, Aeon 2 is go. Be careful to not contradict now. There is a lot of potential for change, but try not to ignore things already existing. Also, you got nice little narrative plot hooks that you can latch onto if you wish.

Another little blurb to let the gods know what is going on on the world. Your all acting so the mortals do recognize your actions, but most of you are filtered through a thousands years or more of noncontact.

Just for note Oathkeeper was referring to people who took...well the name is self explanatory lol, the oath being the bartimaean orders oath. I may have tried to sound too flowery. Any misspellings...well I wrote it at work on my smart phone O.o

Eris is such an interesting addition! Love the post in the Void - it's about time we had our Olympus.

Loving Age two quite a bit guys, keep up the good work. Wonder what I will do with all this during the next inbetween?

Just an aside to the players, please make sure you are careful on the number of Acts you are using...... Or not using

Glad you like Eris though!  Ao and I are having a blast coming up with extra little details for you all to work with.

I laighed so hard at birds with antlers! Love the creation of the flute as well. Hmmm, how to work with that. You guys do such odd things! Odd and wonderful!

This is without a doubt the most interesting god game I've been in :) and I know I have one act saved...I dont know how to proceed without breaching my characters well...character lol

Sometimes, you have to act a bit out of character to get to your goals. How much does Bartimaeus' own ambition drive him? Simple questions: what is your goal, what is preventing this, and how can you motivate someone to solve the blockage?

The most important questions: Are you focusing too narrowly, what else can you focus on, why?

Peeps be stomping around the world right now doing big stuff, but I think I have shown that subtle ACTs reap just as much reward with, often, less disaster. The Interbreeding thing was very interesting after all. Look at Eris' ACTs. There is a whole underworld now, just noone make Drow or Illithids. That's boring. LOL.

What an arms race...

Its going to be one hell of a brawl when this powder keg finally goes off

YES! More zombies!

Lol not zombies they were brought back to life not undead :p

Slow day. Revenants really throw you guys off or the Lighthouse?

Updates made. Votes for age?

Here comes a bit of wrath...

Actually, the ramifications of the curse of fortunes was quite interesting and elegant, if I do say so myself.

I'm kinda confused, what rule did I violate? I can't find anything in the rules about having too much of an effect incurring the wrath of Ao.

 I felt the ACT was too undefined in scope and dangerous in effect. As for a rule, the ACT had the potential of directly interacting with the ACTs of other gods. Say Ba'El or The new reaper kills a Felkan? What if a Sylph managed to kill a Felkan? I am talking in circles, but the idea is that it has too much of a potential of interacting with another god is all. So, minor wrath.

Sorry for posting in two bits; I was writing on an airport bus for a flight I ended up missing anyways -.- plus side, finally have a weekend to just relax!!!

Woot!  My favorite sort of weekends

Don't forget I will hand out Do ain ACTs tonight and ypu can post those as I figure out what happens Inbetween.

Amraphel and Tur'Eum have several ACTs left at least. Others might have one. Unsure. Will check the table.

EDIT: Felka, Ivalice, Savra, and Wris all have one action as well.

EDIT: EDIT: Tamiko, Felka, Bartimaeus, Ivalice, Savra, and eris have all earned Domain ACTs. Remember to make sure Domain ACTs affect the domain in question.
This message was last edited by the GM at 02:52, Sat 09 Aug 2014.

Amraphel, take a domain ACT.

Why thank you.

In reply to Ao (msg # 70):

Im going on a cruise from today until the 16th, so I won't be able to post starting at 4pm today.

Thanks for the heads up!  It is pretty good timing in-game as well, with the end of the Age and Ao working on writing up the "in-between."  We will be sure to put you into STASIS so you avoid Paradox

The Age ends, you have until midnight to use any ACTs left. No new ACTs will generate today. Fair warning, these ACTs should have been used yesterday, so I might get creative, though not quite wrathy. Age Two will receive its closing paragraph at midnight tonight.

Tur'Eum will go into STASIS, since I expect the next Age to open before the 16th. IT should not take me 7 days to write up this Inbetween Age.

I missed my plane which means I have to explain why to any number of scary individuals do I get mercy? Lol

Btw a note as to why I play; I have never seen a god game where I actually rooted for characters, where subtle is just as potent, where I am truly excited to find out what happens next. This, is an AWESOME game, and I would like to thank you for the effort you use :)

Thanks, I try. It's a lot of fun for me as well. Besides, I take what you provide and shape it is all. You guys have done some pretty interesting things with your ACTs. Also, act as you will, I was being more severe than I intended. Just get any remaining ACTs in under the deadline if you have them.

Phew, sorry for the delay - writing now! Felka's player and I are across the country on vacation and things have been more hectic than expected.

Wow, everyone is having an exciting summer!

Yup, a tree! That was the way we agreed she would leave.

That post was a whopper. Lots of strange things happening. Two more posts before the third age. Any bets on whether Mooru will still be in power?

Anyway, next post is tomorrow. Have to plan it out.

THAT was a lot of work. Alright everyone, go and play in the new Age! This game has been absolutely awesome. The story we are writing together is awesome as hell! I am going to be working on a little bit of fun for the next age of mortals for everyone!

Try to have fun with this world... don't forget the Third Planet and Shinsekai as well.

Looks great!

Small edit to the i itial post of aeon three.

Love whats been done. Dude to work I'll probably post tomorrow

Kinda quiet!

People are saving up ACTs or plotting. Tur'eum is in STASIS. A couple players are travelling and might be slow responding.

First Aeon 3 edits up.

Where is everyone :(

Either busy or saving ACTs up, I hope. They are all checking in except Tur'eum of course.

Several players are risking paradox. Please either post or PM me about STASIS.

All players who are at risk of paradox are hereby warned that I will be putting them in STASIS at the end of the day tomorrow.  You will loose all saved actions. If this continues without any notice from you for two more days, I will be forced to take drastic action. Now, if you can't post for whatever reason, let me know and you can be pit in regular STASIS. Otherwise, Paradox STASIS will occur, which is going to be filled with wrath. Another alternate is to post. Hexk, if you are just having troubles figuring a post out, let me know. This type of game depends on regular posting. This Aeon has gotten off to a slow and lackluster start....
This message was last edited by the GM at 03:56, Sat 16 Aug 2014.

Okay, lasy day to post without major ramifications. Ivalice and Bartimaeus are fine, Tur'eum should be back today from his declared break. Eris is cool. The other three are pissing Ao off. I really don't mind if you all are busy, but please let me know what is going on with your schedule so I can plan for this age.

In reply to Ao (msg # 94):

Yep, I'm here! :]

Eager to see what the forgefather has in mind!

New updates up as well as the ramifications of PARADOX invoked by certain gods. Tur'eum is back as of yesterday and is building ACTs again. Enjoy the boon those who gained them!

Also, the ITEM OF POWER STASIS is revoked once those gods post again. Now, if they remain dormant for much longer, how would people feel about me advertising for a few new gods?

I think it could add for a fun twist...it is afterall the age of new gods essentially.

Mm, well, only as long as the active four son't also fall to PARADOX. Keep on posting guys.

Just did hehe. My only fear is new people coming in and mucking up the waters with a plethora of new races and such...Also, I am curious as to how exactly our orb acts work.

Ord ACTs function just like a domain ACT. It has to match the domain of the Orb is all, then you can use it like a normal ARTIFACT of its type.

No worries, it would not be a blanket advert, and new gods would have to answer questions to get in based on the world. I would be very careful.

Interesting ACTs, updates posted.

In reply to Ao (msg # 102):

Do I have two acts or three saved up?

In reply to Tur'eum (msg # 103):

You have three.

Also, three spots in the game are in peril. If it gets to ten days without them posting, which is in three days' time, then I will be removing the players and seeking new ones, either to take over characters of bring in new gods. Inwould encourage them to raise fro. The mortals as gods insteads, but we'll see.

What did people think of, in the next age, the first generation of gods all retired and we all moved into new gods raised from mortal stock? Makes for an interesting idea! Yes?

Maybe have us play as "Avatars" of sorts?  We don't have to necessarily lose our characters/personalities/etc, just they are remade by the Ao into a new form.

Idk the idea of elder gods versus younger gods is entertaining lol

Updates posted and I sort of like the old verse new as well. Hmm...mlooking more and more likely.

New God RTJ up and edits to the god edits in the RTJ thread.

Tur'eum is unedited for now because he is newly active in age three. Old Gods, if they are ambitious, can submit a New God RTJ if they like.

I think its got a lot of potential for both continuity, and a new form of god game...we already have one here, a story driven god game. To add in new and old gods in tandem rather than a form of reset; to much fun to be missed :P

A couple of RTJs in and i am psyched by the potential of it. Hmm, this game has been an awfully awesome success. I am glad you all love the story element I weave into it.

/welcome to our newest God/Goddess. A gemini style combo god of... who knows!

Welcome Jaory, a god of dreams.

Hello everyone! Glad to join the group and look forward to what is to come! I'm going to go to sleep now.

Welcome aboard!

Hello, we are Roxarees-Kalianna :)

I will update tonight. Late.

Welcome aboard everyone new! And good...I was getting worried there for a second lol.

I have to hand it to the new ones too, that was a lot of reading you had to do ;-)

That was a lot but it paid off and I will enjoy this!

Updates done.

Too tired, updates tomorrow; great posts though. Someone bold Tur'eum's ACTs.

Time for sleepy tome...

Done

Updates. Interesting stuff happening. Loved Soul Gems and bartimaeus' University Arcanum acts. Sal'Tur makes me happy as it is opening the rest of the unvierse to my Machiavellian plots!

Jaory, please be careful.

As Rule #1 says, you have ONE SENTENCE per day with which you may ACT. If you wish to write more than one sentence, please make your actual ACT stand out in some way (underlined, emboldened, differently colored or something of that nature).

I am very, very leery of compound sentences, complex sentences, and domino effects. I chose to interpret the Djinn ACT in a way that did not provoke WRATH, but CREATING the Djinn and the ASSIGNING them could have been seen as two ACTs easily. Be careful, please.

I was very careful on how I worded that sentence and knew it may be pushing it but I figured it would be very borderline!

In reply to Jaory (msg # 125):

I'll keep that in mind.

Love it, Eris. I was just writing up a similar Act for tomorrow :)

Need SOME sort of way to connect worlds :-)

Feel free to do with it as you wish if I've already stolen your idea

You already solved the terraforming problem... you did NOT want to see Eris's solution to that.... the Ao was going to be pretty amused...

Interesting. Worlds were sort of connected by the Winds, no one ever really developed that fully though.

In reply to Ao (msg # 129):

Getting to it. Only one Act a day ;)

I hope I have redeemed myself with these ACTs I have for you for today! Maybe I will turn the tides of this incoming war!

On a camping trip for my college orientation, can't post till Saturday

Updates.

Ror-Kal: keep a closer eye on your ACT count. You might have gone over but for my magnimity.

In reply to Ao (msg # 133):

Apologies, trying to judge when it ticks over but timezones are not my friend this week!

When in doubt, ask me or the Co, we are traxking ACTs.

Updates and expect a vote in the coming week.

I'm hoping to finish off the six-ACT arc whose first scene I posted just now, before we close the Age (and, truth be told, hoping for about a dozen more ACTs as I'm really enjoying the game!)

Heheh im enjoying myself but I feel the next age will be the time to shine with all the new additions and such

Updates and votes up.

For the players, not their characters, know the next inbetween you get to do things, too. I decided to let you guys' gods be born into the world while they slumber and a fraction of their conscious is active as a hero. You'll see how I work this in as it happens. Gotta save some surprises. The method you choose your mortal mother and your characters' births will be your first actions in the inbetween.

Sound neat?

Super neat :)

Sounds good to me! My choice should make things even more interesting I think!

Kk, new Mortal rules are up. Please read them and comment if you so desire. Updates will be up later tongiht.

Please, everyone, respond to the post in Echoes with your gods' decisions. Non votes will be understood as no votes. Not choosing a mortal female will be understood as uninterest in participating in the experiment.

Things got weird. Updates come tomorrow.

Oh I am curious to see this.

No, no: they are an interesting group of posts, I just got trPped inNetflix yesterday. My apologies.

They are indeed interesting posts! Update should be fun to read!

Kk, still pondering Jaory's last ACT, but all others are updated! Have fun with that. Like I had never heard of the four divine guardians of Kyoto! Loved the Ord ACT Ivalice! Hope you like what I did with it. Shaun is effectively a demigod as long as the Orb is fuzed to his soul.

I don't know whether to be troubled by that or excited! If you need some help or extra input for the last ACT let me know! The orb ACT was pretty exciting to read! :)

Nah, I figured it out. Dice always help make funny decisions.

If you thought that action was interesting you will love my final two ACT's. They are sure to revolutionize the tide of the war against Mooru. For good or bad not sure yet. ;)

Alright, I have begun work on a project to flesh out and gather together information for ease of reference. I am currently working on races and would be happy to have people who wish throw together vlurbs for races as theynwish. I might edit them, but it would save me time and trouble. Just let me know you are working on it so I don't overlap too much. Each entry should consist of Appearance/History, Customs/Culture, Personality, Associations/Alliances both woth other mortals and deities.

I already did one for Bartimaeans as an example.

Bartimaeans This race is one of the so-called "wahedeen" races descended from the first 10 sentient veings ever created. Those 10 are still rememebered amongst the Bartimaeans and their names are still amongst the most common of Bartimaean chosen names. These Wahedeen still revere the original creator of their race and the creator of order, reason, and law. They form a distinct subrace of Wahedeen due to this. They manifest the features he created them with proudly: tall and muscular with triangular torsos and powerful arms and legs they possess grey eyes and either red, from the color of blood to the color of fire, or blonde hair.
   All the Wahedeen races are extremely long-lived, averaging 500 years, and mature slowly. They achieve their name day around the age of 50 and are considered elderly around 300 and ancient at 450. When vorn, they are given a child's name which will remain a pet name for them, usually, throughout their life. Upon reaching 50, each child stands a vigil and then chooses to take the Oath or not. 80% of them do. Those who do not are not looked down upon at al and are always allowed to take the Oath later in life. The zoath is, afterall, open to all people always. Those who do not take the Oath generally join small farming communities and tend toward large, peaceful families. Those who take the Oath have a far more open path ahead of them. Most find a trade or profession, but roughly 50% of all Bartimaeans join the Order of Bartimaeus and take vows in one of the many knightly orders. This makes them one of the largest militaries in the world outside of thr Citadel or Mooru's lands.
   Bartimaeans prize order and law above all. Each strives to find hisnplace in thenworld and occupy it with skill and dedication. they do prize ambition but without social climbing. Bartimaean ambition comes in perfecting their chosen role in life. It makes them donsumate warriors, monks, sorcerers, and whatever else they choose to be. That said, they compartmentalize well, too. At work they are professional; at home they are warm and affectionate people.
   Bartimaeans are close to their cousins amongst the Alexandrans, Sileasians, and Windborne. They believe their ancient cousins, the Felkans, to be extinct for now. The acerage Bartimaean reveres Bartimaeus, obviously, but many of them once revered Felka, Tamiko, and even Tur'eum. Recently, they have added the Lovers as a favored second deity and are known to use Erisian curses frequently.

Once that world book is fully established, the state of the Creation is almost one that is fully formed enough to run an RP through

Truth. That was my thought as well. Heck, I always thoughtnit half thenpoint of running a godgame, yeah?

That would be fairly shiny. Is the intention to share this with the wider RPOL community?

I was actually considering suggesting that...this has thicker lore than many regular roleplays let alone god games

This game does have a lot of lore and I would like to see a little resource around to help ensure that things can be easily found! As for blurbs what do you mean? Like writing what you did there or like impressions of the races from the standpoint of the gods. For Example going with the Bartimeans:

Jaory: He has nothing against the Bartimeans and wishes them the best. He likes how orderly and powerful they are.

I personally think that would be fun if that was what you meant.

No, there are around twenty plus entries and it is going to take me forever if I don't get some help. I am looking formpeople to write entries like the one for the Bartimaeans.

That makes sense! Just was clarifying! I'm willing to write a few as needed! :)

Same here

Well and god, just ask for the entry and write something following the pattern established. Please make sure to research the race before writing. I am especially lookong for someone to work on elves, the various Phellian races, D'warfs, and would love someone to do either the Silesians or Forge Children, who are very open as races for development.

Hmmm..... By various Phellian races you are talking about the Phellian, Morphian, Kappa, and Bakemono right? I would take that I suppose along with D'warfs.

Fine by me. One entry each for the Phellian races.

I'm happy to pick up the elves

Elves taken then.

Last day to generate ACTs. I will be taking the weekend to organize and prep the next Age of Mortals, so you have the weekend to use any ACT saved up. Jaory, Bartimaeus, and Eris have earned Domain ACT so far.

Not trying to squeeze in an extra ACT, just for clarity: would the creation of the Lovers Bones have counted? Should I have declared it?

Could I tack the Domain ACT onto my last post or should I make it it's own post? For clarity sake.

Hey guys, new god on the block! I'll be joining you for the age of mortals, so RP-wise I don't exist yet, but I thought I'd say hello. Looking forward to getting some divine scheming done soon!

In reply to Avaria (msg # 168):

Welcome :)

Welcome to the game Avaria! :)

Hello everyone! Also new to the game and will join you all as well! Happy to RP with you all! :)

The lovers' Bones did count.

Post Domain ACTs as you would a normal ACT.

/welcome Ashling next! We might get one more but that is it. Start thinking and prepping for your first post IC as a Mortal. I will close the Age with a post as I always do and open a new Age of Mortals thread with an intro post moving the world along a bit and working in each of your births. Of course, the Mortal you play will be long lived unless they DIE! LOL

Welcome Ashling! :)

Can I post the ACT today or wait until tomorrow?

Thanks for clarifying... obviously nowhere near the five needed, but there was some stuff I wanted to set up for the next Age so...

You have the weekend to finish posting. I will put up the final post of Age Three Monday. After that, the thread is closed.

Okeydokey! I'll think it out and post tomorrow!

Hi Ashling! As fellow new gods, we should work together to destroy the feeble incumbents and usher in a glorious new era become valuable members of this great divine society.

Avaria and Ashling are the newest of the new, but don't forget Jaory and the Lovers are new Gods as well, though of a different generation.

Updates up.

Welcome Ashling!

Ao, love what you did with the Burrowers :)

Thanks for the welcomes! I'm open to an alliance between the two of us Avaria! I can tell we will have fun already!

Welcome everyone :)

Eris welcomes you to her playground family!

Did you just create an exhaust vent, Eris? Shiny :)

Someone else needs to create an X-wing :-), what's a massive death star without the overlooked exhaust vent?  Its a GODLY exhaust vent mind you :-)
This message was last edited by the player at 14:07, Sun 07 Sept 2014.

....exhaust vent is what everyone noticed....does no one catch on to the TARDIS reference?!??!?!

Which for the record I approve of both lol

It plays the Dr. Who music too!  Unfortunately, only us gods can hear it

Omg...will the tardis bring down the deathstar in a world where mooru is somewhat similar to sauron?!??! *mind blowing nerdgasm*

And the Collector with his sonic screw driver, I mean, his ability to open and close doors?

Lol that makes Anaxines a murderous Jack Harkness and the Avatar...bad dog? Personally the keymaster was a matrix reference, so Roraxees is...Neo.

It was definitely a matrix reference when I first did it.  I never got around to making the Seraph et al.

 The corridor was based on an idea I read in a book, I think a magician called Pug moved around in a similar place.

Then the Siren's Crossroads was obligatory at that point

Aye, I liked the Feist reference :)

Yes!  That was it.  Wow, its been so many years....

It was where I had half-inched the concept from too ;)

A reminder that your first post in the age of heroes is the growing up post. Make sure to reference your race's bios, if they have one, in the world dev thread.

Wow, ten actions and a hundred years! That's pretty massive, are we supposed to use all of that in one post?

In reply to Avaria (msg # 196):

I think that is the case. The ACTIONS are all supposed to be in one post and that will affect the next post of the inbetween. I'm still considering my ACTIONS to be honest. So much is possible and I gave myself a challenge.

So all ten at once to grow up...im a bit overwhelmed lol

I know! Considering these ACTIONS cover 100 years and that is just growing up! XD

Hmm, well, we have a mix of Wahedeen, elves, D'warfs, and more. I figured it would take at least that long for everyone to mature. I considered 75 years instead. Oh, it takes a wahedeen fifty to be xonsidered an adult by the bye. Xonsider these ten to be character creation. You will get less in future jumps but these need to purchase innate TALENTS and SKILLS and maybe even INFORMATION.

Yeah, I suppose it makes sense if most of the time is spent walking around sucking on a pacifier. One thing, though, great Ao: it seems likely that actions will build on one another. Say the actions go as follows:

ACTION 1: character learns sorcery
ACTION 2: character sprouts wings for no reason
ACTION 3: character uses wings to fly to the Juggernaut and tweak Mooru's nose
ACTION 4: etc.

If action 2 fails (because it doesn't make any sense), and actions 3-10 rely on action 2's success for them to make any sense (because the character needs to be able to fly), do actions 3-10 fail likewise? Because that's 90% of a lot of writing falling apart over one misstep. Should we just try to avoid this by having actions be fairly independent of each other?

For now my ACTIONS are separated a bit with a three ACTION arc at the end. Spy, capture, interrogate.

65 if they are Alexandrans lol. I didnt think about talent purchasing and such I gotcha.

Poor wahedeen parents...rebellious adolescent period for over a DECADE

I'm sure if there was something in your Actions that caused the other ones to fail the Ao would do one of two things (from what I know of him/her):

1.  The Ao would do his very best to reconcile the further Actions in the spirit of the intent

2.  The Ao would contact you by PM to give you a chance to reconcile the later actions

This Ao isn't "out to get you" as some are in other god games (though I am sure you can already tell this one is quite different!).  You won't be penalized inadvertently (if anything, you might give ME more work :-p ;-) ).  This Ao is a pretty fair one.

Ahh, so nice. Yes, if you attmept to tile ACTIONS, I will do my best to honor the intent of the set or clarify it with you. Future sets won't be quite as bulky.

Sounds good. It was mostly a theoretical question, anyway, since in practice any such problems can be easily averted by not making your ACTIONs too ridiculous! Ao's wrath has been very rare these past three ages, so it's unlikely that we'll have many issues.

Typing up a nice rise to power right now.

Good posts guys, keep it up. I am looking forward to working with them for the next bit of this age.

How long is the time span between the end of the third age and the beginning of the age of heroes ?

Good question! That post at the end of the Third Aeon spanned fifty years only.

Welp, here goes Lupin the third.

Greetings all. ^.^ A little new here, but hoping to have a bit of fun.

Oh, its the Demigod that I'm practically responsible for. Hi ^.^

In reply to Ivalice (msg # 213):

Yup, worked out that way indeed

He can call you grandma!

Alrighty, we have a few posts, but nothing like what I need. The afe works different, I need all posts before I can move us forward guys, so get to it! I will set a deadling of this coming weekend. So, Friday at midnight I will move forward with only the heroes who have posted. I know this first post is a big hurdle, but they will never be this big again. I just wanted you to have enough ACTIONS to get your character established with some traits and such. Most subsequent periods will ve a decade of less and have far fewer ACTIONS involved once we hpget there.

Hey Kaiden, welcome to the world!

Man, you already have your own party of adventurers, that's pretty sweet! Avaria's got to buy herself some plucky NPC companions at some point.

EDIT: whoops, posted right over some fresh divine commandments. Ao, is it all right to not use all of the actions assigned? I had a bit of difficulty thinking of ten significant actions, so can people just do a post with say, 5-7 significant actions if that's all they need to establish their characters?
This message was last edited by the player at 17:08, Tue 09 Sept 2014.

Welcome Kaiden! Finally put up my ACTIONS and am satisfied with them!

Working on it, boss :)

In reply to Ashling (msg # 217):

Hey, I'm supposed to be the rich ex-merchant flying around in a sky ship with her goons! Clearly Avaria and Ashling are going to be either great rivals or best of friends.

You may always perform less ACTIONS but you can only save three.

Hahahaha! I just kinda liked the idea of D'warf trader that is a master crafter. XD

I think they may get along though and form a Party.

An excellent post from the Lovers showing how to use several ACTIONS at once. Loving the posts folks.

Working on it! The office temporarily melted the right side of my brain lol

I can understand that. xD

I guess. Been working to build up funds for an upcoming move. Still, been a relaxing month or two for me. Work first man. Your contribution has been welcomed and you got some time yet.

Well I appreciate that; I love this game and really appreciate you for making it so good. :) DONE! Hope it reads well.

And god yes. I love my job, dont get me wrong; I am a corporate freight broker and I like the competitive side. It feeds my narcissism. But it is such a far cry from what I was doing a year ago...I miss that lol.

Excellent use of the open threads in the lore! This game is open enough that you all can do similar things. Use the events that have happened and incorporate them! A tattooist and revenant, hah! Awesome. I a, pretty sure Roraxees and Eris are planning some awesomeness, too. Of course, all my players help me stay inspired.

As for cutthroat, not my bag man, but glad you like it. I'm an academic and love that world a lot myself.

Waiting for the Twins and we will move forward.

Mostly one of the twins is causing all the trouble (me ;-) ), I promise we are almost done.  We've sort got our backgrounds a little intertwined.  I've had poor internet access during the days (EST timezones for me), doing this from my phone now.  BUT, based on the last PMd with my twin, we are very close!

Almost done!  I think it just needs one more pass by my twin and we will have settled on something together

Will have something in a few hours folks. Sadly I have to head out to earn a crust!

While we're waiting for the next cycle to start, we might as well do some coordination and preparation. Ashling, want to have our god-aspirants cross paths for a bit of business and betrayal?

A little intrigue never hurt anyone... Badly.. ^.^

In reply to Kaiden (msg # 233):

Oh, don't worry, Avaria will be after you next! I don't suppose that adventuring party of yours has any valuable magic items, does it?

Psssh keep living it up and you could attract the attention of certain lawful individuals :p

Psssh, laws were in ented by gods. Ain't got nothing on me!

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 235):

Surely a nice fellow like Jibrail wouldn't hurt another (former) Order member! They could have fun, talk about the old days at the Monastery, I'm sure they'd get on like a house on fire.

Besides, Avaria has some ideas for profit-making ventures that are perfectly legal, too. Perhaps Jibrail would be interested in helping her liberate some Mooru-held land in order to turn it into a for-profit corporate fiefdom?

The irony is I had some similar plans for the next age lol

You had planned to start fiefdoms next age?  :-D

Neat, I will update tomorrow. Ypu think ten ACTIONS was a lot? Try handling a hundred... Grrr. Worth it, so much fodder to be woven together.

This round, I have decided to do two posts for the uodate, so wait for me tompost twice, please.

Now, to take a deep breath and dive in.

In reply to Ao (msg # 241):

Max character limit? ;)

This sounds pretty epic

In reply to Avaria (msg # 232):

I don't see why not! Depends on the degree of betrayal though. After all Ashling has loads of money and skill. Loved the result by the way!

Thanks, use the plots provided in the last post or start your own, i just provided some inspiration and possible paths for everyone. Have fun!

In reply to Eris (msg # 239):

Not quite fiefdoms; think slightly later in European history hehehe

Ya know, I am going to love seeing adventures in this world! This is just the precursor. When it is all said and done, i want to see games in this universe! We are making an awesomely rich and robust world with a vast history, great character, and some awesome evolutions!

Now, waiting for post being the most torturous part for me...

I will tomorrow most likely. I am done today just dead...lol. on a side note love the idea of keeping the universe going!

I have more ages in mind yet as well. At least two more ages of gods and maybe some more ages of heroes or kingdoms if this one pans out.

I'll post tomorrow as well! Right now I'm around a ton of crazy 6-8 graders. Can't hear myself think for goodness sake!

In reply to Avaria (msg # 234):

Items indeed are the tell-tale sign of doing a good job when it comes to adventurers! ^.^
I'm sure out paths cross for other item related reasons. ;3

Currently out in the middle of nowhere with 1 bar and an old phone. Gonna work on this when I can between hikes.

So Jibrail is heading to Septis to wreak some havoc on the local gangs; any chance the madame merchants would be interested ina business deal of sorts; intelligence on the local lay of the land in exchange for a cut of the liberated goods :p

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 252):

Kaiden was also looking into liberating Septis of its gangs in hopes of choking Mooru's income.
The fact that a certain triage of world class thieves are also there is naught but a bonus. ;3
Using dreaded dnd terms, Kaiden is more chaotic than lawful, if Koichi and Lupin would like to work together to take down any gangs that work for Mooru in some way.
Of course the meeting wouldn't go as simple. It's not in the good adventurers blood to talk civilly to thieves! XD
In return, Kaiden wouldn't come after their holdings while he was in Septis, as his main goal was beginning to focus on Mooru. ;3
Jabrail is also a prime ally, as we both are after the same goal. If nothing else, an adventuring party would prove a useful distraction from any forces defending specific targets.
Kaiden sees courage and dedication in you both, and is definitely willing to help should a good goal be seen.

Well, I put up the Tacern Thread if you want the characters to hash it out IC. Taverne is like Echoes but the the characters need valid reasons to be able to chat, so label where you are chatting for instances.

Alright! I'm willing to help with the Septis Gangs. I'll post in the tavern!

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 252):

There's that good business sense that Avaria is so proud of, selling out her stake in the Septis criminal environment one post before the Order comes and starts kicking down doors!

Hell, sounds like there's even more money to be made, to the tavern!

In reply to Kaiden (msg # 253):

Wait what, we're just thieves, why would we care that much to defeat a thieves guild ?

Your decision, you control lupin III as much as i do!

In reply to Kaiden (msg # 253):

Hehehe the Septis gangs are interesting for a lot of reasons, money to be made and a thorn in Mooru's side. Jibrail is just plain neutral; he does not care who, or how, only why. He has his objectives and everything else is just a detail standing between him and the endgame. Money is as nice to him as anything as it is useful; it could be just as easily be priests rather than thieves and merchants, but his reaction would be the same :P

The party chat is really interesting! If I could jump in I would but alas I am far away and rather useless to the current scheme of things. Keep it up though! :)

Hey, Ra's looking for allies, and everyone of note is converging on Septis, clearly that is the place to go! This place is full of greedy and heroic types, if there are any good economic or moral reasons to help Ra, I'm sure they're just the ones to talk to.

Well it just doesn't make sense right now unless Ashling swung by her home and Ra was there among other Phellians. So Ashling what say you to coming and retrieving me in a turn or two.

If I could run into Ra I'll make sure to keep retrieval in mind! ;)

The chatter has been neat, but lets ACTION soon folks.

I'm finally back to civilization! Sorry about disappearing. I should've expected signal to vanish.
Catching up in the readings, and I'll be posting this evening if all goes according to plan.

In reply to Ao (msg # 264):

Aye, aye, captain, we'll try to wrap it up to get some actions out.

Sorry for the delay and sorry if my post was dark...I got inspiration lol

Alright! I'm done now! That rounds up our Party.

Ph? Waiting for Avaria to post actually.

Sorry, Euro-time, I'll write something up on the quick.

Nicely done. Win-Win for you i take it? lol

In reply to Kaiden (msg # 271):

Rule number one: honour your contracts
Rule number two: never let an opportunity pass you by

Sorry, Ashling, Avaria just can't help herself!

Don't worry about it! You just sprouted me a plan!

In reply to Ashling (msg # 273):

Cool! I hope it's not going to adversely affect poor, innocent Avaria, who absolutely had nothing to do with any hypothetical robbery that might hypothetically have happened aboard any hypothetical ship.

Anyway, it's good to know, because I've seen people take stuff like this very personally in god games, but it's really just a bit of good-natured "no honour among thieves" shenanigans!

I was amused. That is all.

Wait, we need Tur'eum's post!

Hear ye Hear ye, The Ballad of the Howling Storm. ^.^
If you have a better name, by all means. xD Just wanted something with Wolf and Storm in it. lol
Working on my next 2 ACTs.

For those interested, the idea and tune came from a poem i had heard one day at an SCA event around a bonfire with Bards singing it.
Twas really good.
Saddened me to find out there are no recordings of this poem in a singsong format. >.< And my singing voice is not that great.

I approve of it! Nice poetic edge :)

Avaria, as you said, no hard feelings :P

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 278):

For sure, for sure. It's not like Avaria even cares about Septis, and she's already sent people out with the maps, so Crovus can go just go and croak.

I am hurt, though: going back on a promise? She helped take down the Wyrg! Ransacking the Trade Wind was a completely separate transaction :P

ROFL, Jibrail is very literal. Respect the ambition and such, but; a binding contract is a contract. He is sort of like a lawyer who can point out all the pieces of the contract...then murder if that doesnt work :P

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 278):

Thank you. ^.^ Twas beginning to wonder if it was badly written. lol

In reply to Bartimaeus (msg # 280):

Hey, the contract never included a "don't rob my stuff" clause! It was "help take down the Wyrg, and you'll get 20%." She helped take down the Wyrg, and presumably got paid! The fact that she also (allegedly) robbed the client has nothing to do with the contract.

Pretty sure he speaks of line 32 Under "Allied Parties" Quote "Hindering the alliance, referred to as the PARTY from here on ought, before the 10 year term will be subject to reprisal according to the rest of the PARTY's care."
^.^

In reply to Kaiden (msg # 283):

Hey, I never signed that! What is this kangaroo court?

Its actually a wallaby court; notated under subsection 6-1 paragraph 32.

God damn it, I always forget to check for the fine print only visible under ultraviolet! You don't want a job in the Avaria Group plc Department for Legal Shenanigans, do you?

Waiting on a couple of posts from folks.

I'd like to make it clear, we specialise in theft, not robbery.

What do you see as the difference?

Theft needs no violence or threats to "liberate" a person of their valuables while robbery tends to be just taking them with brute force.

It's actually interesting that we have so few "lawful" characters. Pretty much everyone seems to be a thief or an assassin or a rogue or at least a vigilante. The world is rather unfortunate to be in our hands!

In reply to Avaria (msg # 291):

Or just not in the pub with all you vagabonds ;)

In reply to Roraxees-Kalianna (msg # 292):

Hey, I cashed out and quit that two-bit watering hole ages ago! You're in Septis too, right? Got anything valuable? Let's form a party!

We never made it to Septis, we were accosted by a universe-is-his-oyster-demigod
This message was last edited by the player at 18:37, Mon 22 Sept 2014.

In reply to Eris (msg # 294):

Demigods, they're just the worst! You should try to visit later, Septis is a pretty nice place if you don't mind the constant gang wars and murder.

Haha.. mmaayybbee.... the majority of you seem to have it well in hand :-)  There is a whole creation out there to land in!

I am not a vagabond! *looks up vagabond*
Oh.. a wanderer huh?
I guess i am a vagabond...

Just waiting for Tur'eum, now. Very interesting material to work with this time.

I cried havok and released the hogs of war...or whatever relevant farm animal.

Jaory's venomous squirrels of war?  Not exactly a farm animal, but still a critter that actually made Act status :-)

Such cuteness made into something so... deadly. >.>  Some might say it would be the perfect murder. xD

Alrighty, updates tomorrow. Look forward to it!

The Suspense.... It kills... xD

It is a good experiment so far! Neh?

I'm enjoying this so far! It is quite fun to play as a hero and save the world from evil.

Aye, definitely a good experiment. ^.^

What was decided on the time stamp for character creation? Thinking it was 50+10+10?
Ripe old age of 70, with 15 years for the next set? ^.^

That is the age. Yes. Up to you to decide how to work with that fact. Several players are of long lived races, but not everyone. You could also chalk long livedness up to the divine spark, an anomaly of sorts.

Wahedeen crossbreed oathkeeper with Revenant rites...the original Revenant lived well over a thousand years so age is no concern :p

Damn, worth a try! Trade wars can be nasty. Ivalice, does Koichi's mercenary band take work? Avaria might be in trouble soon, she could use some backup.

I don't know, I guess ? Koichi's too busy running a thieves guild.

Oh yeah. Well, hopefully Mooru will keep the vengeful busy!

Waiting on a few posts. Will be advancing tomorrow regardless. I am a bit miffed at these long intervals and thought this would be a bit faster turnaround each ACTION. I am going to think about trying this another way soon.

In reply to Ao (msg # 312):

Sorry, boss. Timezones not working in our favour

Quests don't require you devote time to them, you can direct your networks with ACTIONs as well. Remember to be creative, even if you are limited to mortal power now.

Also, Mooru's Forces will get one ACTION per day like you guys. Beware their ACTIONs!
This message was last edited by the GM at 07:07, Wed 01 Oct 2014.

Updates done.

Great!

If I die, please make it glorious :-)

I'll take one of those as well.
A Glorious Death for all!

Details will always save you!. I don't make certain decisions. Tell me how, describe your methods, and you will be more siccessful!

Updates done and I am likinng this pace better!

Heheh I concur it makes it easier for ys to.   I posted right after updates -.-

The question was asked and, yes, we are back to the old one ACTION per day system. So, don't wait for my posts, Mooru is currently saving his actions, post each fay or so as you wish. The same saving ACTIONs rule applies as ACTs, as is posted in the rules.

Does the universtity arcanum still even exist ?

Yes it does. It is closely allied with and geographically near the Monastery.

Wait, did you mean the Arcanum?
This message was last edited by the GM at 06:35, Fri 03 Oct 2014.

I dont actually know the current function of the Arcanum; one of its purposes was to be a magic college (ONE OF THE PURPOSES) but with the war raging I dpnt know what jts standard function is.

The arcanum is still auniversity, but it is also a fortress and the base of operations for the Risen and Brothers of Shadow.

Updates out but not done. Later to gith for the other two, am very busy. Work night.

If the Ao or I ever miss one of your Actions and you do not believe the Table is up to date with how many Actions/Acts you currently have left, please kindly let us know.  It will never be on purpose, there are a LOT of moving pieces in this unusual god game :-)

Heheh super unusual but awesome. I wish I could draw so we could see some of the stuff...I should probably contrubute something to our encyclopedia of the world.

I had a map of the 2nd Aeon or so version of this world worked out using spriting techniques, but I was actually kinda horrible.  The Ao never uploaded it to the game map.

If someone gave me a rough sketch of what they think things should look like, I could do it again.
This message was last edited by a game editor at 19:10, Sat 04 Oct 2014.

Ah, I forget a few small things in this massive game, sorry. If anyone wants to see it, ask Jr. And he can get you a copy. I am not sure I will move it to the game maps yet.

I officially request a copy of said map. ^.^

Let's hope this ambush works and seeing Adorapha's actions thus far it would be an effective strategy! Along with Avaria's help of course. Post #700

Nothing can stand against the power of greed and crustaceans!

Indeed! I'm willing to go to any means to get rid of Adorapha and think this will succeed somehow.

Uodates done!, keep up the great work.

Table of Actions/Acts updated



Okay.... it's not pretty though!  PM an email it can be sent too, or a link provided too.

Apologies, been sick. Will try and post tonight

Ao has blessed you all with uodates, but I will be takign ACTION again soon. You are warned.

In reply to Mooru (msg # 338):

I hear that all the cool evil tyrants are trying to conquer Shinsekai at the moment, and that they certainly wouldn't be caught dead in the Shrouded Isles! I definitely recommend taking ACTION far away from Avaria's money allies.

Updates, done. Koichi, there will be an awesome crime story coming soon via my awesome and vrilliant co sometiem to orrow but I gave you a placeholder for now. If you want to run thoughts about style and such past him, go ahead. He loves input.

Ivalice/Koichi , Ao and I are working on that write up for you now (i.e. it will release in less than 12 hours).  Please PM us if there are any particular details you would like to see show up in the Response (scenic details, abilities of Koichi you would like highlighted, etc.

You can look back at the Alexia/Ez'ekial and Kaiden/Nina fights to see how we try to incorporate these small things into the Results.

High five, Ashling! Teaming up with Mooru for economic reasons, you are a ruthless capitalist at heart!

It's actually an alliance with Alexia the Malificent. She still could care less for the brutal warlord Mooru.

Also no offense to you personally Tur'eum but you made an enemy out of Ashling by starting a campaign against her and she has a vandetta for you. To her you are as brutal and uncaring as Mooru. All you had to do was accept her petition and you would be clear of danger.

Yes she holds grudges and Avaria is the bottom of her list now. You want to form a PARTY with me and Ra, Avaria? Just like old times.

Sounds good! If Ashling changes her mind and agrees to co-operate in keeping prices high on the Shrouded Isles, Avaria will gladly help snag the Cities of Brass.

Let's set up a tense meeting in the party thread. To avoid unfortunate misunderstandings, I suggest making the first stipulation "no backstabbing until the party is dissolved"!

It's a whopper with lots of plot elements and stuff. I might use them but they are open to you all as well. This is still a God Game and you can, as long as you weave a story with the mortals, try to weave things as you like of course. Go check out Ivalice's last post for the new update: dungeons, treachery, and treasures, oh myyy!

Also, massive thanks to my Co, who has written several of these awesome vignettes for me. They are cool!

Action table up to date.

Updates!

In reply to Ao (msg # 347):

Huzzah! There's some fun stuff going on, and I'm looking forward to seeing how the various conflicts are going to be resolved.

By the way, since we were discussing the Ashling/Tur'eum standoff, when is Jibrail going to get involved, Bart? He can't be happy that all the resources of the Cities of Brass are being wasted on infighting, let's see this situation escalated!

Updates done, will leave Ashling's last post alone.

Seriously, you flooded the Undergroud guys, think about that...

In reply to Ao (msg # 349):

Oops

  Good thing the gods are awol, I'm sure this would be a new Eris curse.

That being said, good thing Nyx and Addy skipped "town" (world) when we did!  Cataclysmic storms and extinction don't sound pleasant

You expect a assassin to think of anything but killing? I suppose I did a lot of that didn't I.... At least the Isles have a nice buffer, though the levels are lower. I blame Amraphel for giving the Phellians an idea like that. ;)

Digging underground tunnels I mean
This message was last edited by the player at 20:03, Sun 12 Oct 2014.

Honestly, I don't know where you got that stupid "flood the underworld" idea!

And damn it, I thought I had a pass to Shinsekai! Though to be fair, I guess that might not extend to letting Avaria settle down and set up a factory. Hey Jaory, if I write an action where Avaria asks permission to supply the Shrouded Isles war from Shinsekai, can I write that it's with Ra's support, or would he not support that?

Oh wow. And i 'just' got the map too... lol

My Actions are finished now and I'm happy to report Hordis and Alordis will be independent and a beacon of Freedom from fanatics.

Ra would indeed support a steady supply for the war from Shinsekai. He would do what it takes to bring down Adorapha who is still alive.

lol, Jibrail is a bit preoccupied but dont think he has not noticed. Just be afraid...if you havent noticed his sparkling demeanor and winning personality arent exactly what they used to be :P Least he didnt contribute to an ecological disaster...just saying :P

Oh psh, he's still a charmer, he was even nice enough to send military advisors to help out Avaria on the Isles! And come on, there's no ecological disaster, Erewhonian climate change is a hoax, and definitely has nothing to do with the actions of Avaria Investment Group plc or any of its subsidiaries.

In the meantime, Avaria is just going Krupp all over this place, Mooru will be defeated by science and greed!

Action table up to date.

A few updates but not all, working on something for Jibrail's lovely post.

Why thank you. Iv been in a creative slump finally found inspiration :)

A few updates, including a whopper for Jibrail more tomorrow evening.

Oh my goodness...that was epic :3

Aye, more of those please :)

We try :-)

I got an inspired idea and decided to roll with it. Hopefully this helps solidify my network and underground commitments while remaining in the light and enabling others to fight the the good fight.

If Veronica Mars lived in this world, she would work for Ashling's Information Broker network.  I know it.

To be clear, Jibrail, your ohysical prowess has all but been sapped. It is near constantly drained to feed the seal. Think of it as Raistlin syndrome. He has magical might, more than befor,e but he can barely swing a sword anymore. Just a nite as I read your last post. Also, updates!

Gotcha! Well he doesnt know its permanent either (yet) so I feel its slightly rectified

Well, it is the price he pays to feed the seal. So, in a way it is not permanent. In fact, its permanency is subject to time in a couple of ways.

Dun, dun, dun.

Way to be ominous, lol

Updates!

So... New job. Issues. Haven't been able to read much.
Nuf said.
Just finished Jibrail's Sealing. Awesome read. ^.^

Happens to us all :-)

Oh, it is ONNnnn! Straight-up war between the god-sparks!

This is going to be great. Mooru is cackling with glee, the wars will go on forever, and Avaria gets to sell weapons until the last stick in the world has been sharpened.

Oofdah! What to do, what to do?

Oh, snap. I figured he was striking out to get me. Perfect time to get back in business with Avaria.

My condolences to the both of you for a fear this was perhaps a big mistake. I will bring the Daunus in soon to aid in the war effort.

A couple of uodates but I want to see a few responses to Ez'ekial's action before I decide how to resolve it.

Humbug to a war within. xD Darn you religious fanatics!
You'll have the help of the Wolfborn as they value freedom a lot.

Interesting batch of updates!

I'll say! Offensive is stalled, reinforcements have been cut off, now it's time for whatever you would call Operation Uranus in this universe, and then straight on to Berlin Septis!

Sorry for my absence work has been killer posting tonight lol

Updates this evening, sorry for delay!

Apologies for absence too, will try and post today

It's all good! By the way, I like that fighting style name, Ashling. "Is it a style where you go berzerk?" "No, it's a style where you go MORE ZERK!"

It's fine you all. Personally I've been waiting for an update to continue but I'll post something now as the 3 ACTs have pooled. I agree with Avaria as well, MORE ZERK! XD

I suppose I'm placing a cliche out in the open right now with D'warfs and Berzerkers but these are faunus so I feel better about it. It's actually a martial art using pure hot rage. Quite entertaining actually. You'll probably see many bodies with people de-gutted and there contents spilled out when they join the fight. I'm probably paying a lot on these faunus but, oh well.
