Re: New OOC Thread

I think you found some wayward members of our world trotting about the globe. I'll be posting tonight by the way.

Re: New OOC Thread



I want to talk about Thizuth, but once again, I don't want to step on your toes. So, let's discuss.

--Thizuth is a deity? Yes/no?

--If so, do you already have an idea of what, exactly? If so, of what? If not, that's fine.

Re: New OOC Thread

Don't worry about it, this is more your world than mine. I haven't thought too much about Thizuth, I just figure he is the satan of this world. Maybe god of death, control, pestilance?

Book:

Okay how about:

Thizuth: deity of change and unexpected surprises (chaotic neutral with violent tendencies)
--Disruption, rebellion, opposition, violence
--Opposition includes the other deities, therefore:
----Opposition to Numen: destruction, endings
----Opposition to Braara: famine, pestilence, lack, want
----Opposition to Noric: being lost, blindness, things that are buried, stillness

So, not exactly totally evil, but violent and disruptive.

I figure that there are lots of folktales of Thizuth as a child being mischievous, but Thizuth grew up to be worse.

Also figure that Thizuth is not just male nor female, but can change forms at will

I don't think any of the deities were born from a mother... I think they just came into being when huge natural phenomena happened.
--Numen: when the universe first began
--Braara: when plants first started growing
--Noric: the first time the sun completely set
--Thizuth: when the first earthquake happened (or the first time people witnessed a big volcanic eruption?)


Thoughts?

Re: New OOC Thread

Perhaps specifically rebellion against ''good''? Otherwise, everything sounds good to me.

Mm, well, see, but I don't really want it to be evil as such...

I mean, I'm talking about a violently selfish oppositional being... that's pretty not-good...

Ah, I see. Kinda like Loki, a pain in the butt though not inherently evil.

Worse than Loki, but not Satan.

I may be able to post tomorrow...

Re: New OOC Thread

Cool! I've been a sucker for lizard and/or dinosaur mounts for a long time so this is neat. I was thinking the Suspend spell can only be used once a day under normal circumstances, but what if the imbalance brought on by Thizuth was allowing people to use it multiple times a day?

Re: New OOC Thread


Looking at other RPGs, I found this:

"At creation, each culture will have one primary value describing how they think people should act, and one social value describing how they think society should work."

VIRTUE
Compassion
Consistency
Courage
Cunning
Friendliness
Generosity
Humor
Integrity
Loyalty
Perseverance
Politesse
Pragmatism
Purity
Truthfulness

VALUE
Community
Ecology
Education
Equality
Freedom
Hierarchy
Justice
Law
Predictability
Propriety
Refinement
Stability
Tradition
Vision


I really like this... I wanna do it here.

I'm gonna suggest:     People should act:           Our society should strive for:
Ossau people:             Generosity                      Community
Yano:                     Perseverance                    Tradition
Ixen:                     Pragmatism                      Education
Sabral:                   Purity                          Ecology
Abramites:                Friendliness                    Freedom


What are your thoughts?

Cool cool cool. I'm'a put it in the Historical Record.

Since you like my choices, allow me to elaborate a little:


I'm gonna suggest:     People should act:           Our society should strive for:
Ossau people:             Generosity                      Community
Yano:                     Perseverance                    Tradition
Ixen:                     Pragmatism                      Education
Sabral:                   Purity                          Ecology
Abramites:                Friendliness                    Freedom



Ossau people:
--When times are hard, we should share amongst each other. People should be generous.
--Our community should take care of its members.

Yano:
--The desert is very hard. The most admirable people are those who never give up.
--Our culture values its traditions. If we forget our past, what are we?

Ixen:
--We are a new people, made from magic, out of beasts. Admirable people are those who can best see-- and accept-- the world for what it is.
--Our culture is what we know. Knowledge and understanding cannot be taken from us-- they empower us.

Sabral:
--The most admirable individual is the wise individual whose soul is pure, connected to the higher spiritual realities.
--Our culture is one that should respect and protect the natural world-- for are we not all a part of it?

Abramites:
--The most admirable person is one who brightens everyone else's day!
--Our culture is only something we can have when we're free to express ourselves. No one shall ever take our freedom, or we are nothing.



...Thoughts? On these new thoughts?

(Either way, it's your turn!)

Re: New OOC Thread

The Ossau being generous makes, at the same time I could see them being suspicious of strangers as they don't encounter them often. What do you think?

Oh, sure, STRANGERS. But in THEIR OWN community, they're expected to be generous with EACH OTHER. Well, they don't even expect that, exactly, but they respect it if someone actually does it.

They're a pretty sheltered little bunch. Ossau people age 30 and up still don't know quite what to make of the Ixen and Sabral people walkin' around... (young people just think they're kinda neat.)

On the other hand, of course, they will likely have made The Walker in their own image...
