[quote=@BBeast] [@Kho], I am aware that Heroes are by default immortal. But I am also aware that Reathos is opposed to that idea IC'ly (this is correct, right, [@Legion02]?). To appease Reathos, I had plotted an alternative to immortality for the Hero which Gerrik will become (to be enacted once Reathos brings the immortality issue to Teknall's attention). Gerrik will train up an apprentice. Once they are ready, Gerrik will pass the mantle of Heroism to the apprentice (call him A). Gerrik will eventually die a natural death, while A carries on as the Hero. A will then pick up an apprentice, B, and once they are both ready B will be given the status (and powers) of Hero. A will live out the rest of their natural life and die, while B carries on the legacy, picking up an apprentice. The cycle repeats. What do you think? Of course, only one individual can be the Hero at any one time. One advantage of this setup, aside from keeping Reathos happy, is that it prevents the Hero from stagnating, mentally and skill-wise, which is important since this Hero will be primarily an innovator. If we have just one individual who is 4000 years old, they'll get bogged down in the past, and be less willing to bring about change and innovation. The apprentice system ensures that fresh minds and ideas constantly flow. This is rather unconventional, of course. So I shall await your judgment as GM. [@Legion02] What do you think of it, too? [/quote] [quote=@Kho] It's original, rather brilliant, and I like it. [/quote] I may or may not use the same idea. [quote=@BBeast] [@Kangutso] If Vestec is training an army, it might be a good idea for the God of War to show his face. P.S. ninja'd. Have you tried walking the face of Galbar? Or visiting Zephyrion's palace in the sky? Maybe your War senses are tingling. [/quote] That will be covered, but only after I spend a bunch of might to make a holy site by ripping a spectacularlyswordshapedchunk out of the moon and drive it into a barren surface on Galbar. Also thinking about having him look for a god to speak with, might end up being Astarte since she's looking for entertainment and/or someone to play with(I think).
