Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

Heartworm has more in common with Majus and Minus than with most avatars. Once a placeholder consciousness to keep that part of Jvan busy when she wasn't using it, now out of control and surpassing its intended abilities.

Chiral Phi is a piece of Jvan's personality that slowly gained awareness until it was given the chance to escape. Jvan will try and get some use out of that accidental creation later.

Or, more likely, that accident will find a way to get some use out of her.

Done

With school. Finals are state-run and my exams and content have been done for a month, but today was the last day. That's a whole finished chapter of life.

More importantly, shit, guys, do you know how easy it is to teach a city pigeon how to sit on your one hand while eating out of the other? Pigeons and birdseed are the best way to entertain yourself in the city y'all have no idea

Ilunabar: The first deity to set up an artsy Patreon.

Jvan doesn't count because her fanfics have been free of charge (as far as we know).

@Muttonhawk

She has a shady Bitcoin address to which you can send money untraceably. In return, she'll write you a saucy story featuring any gods you like in any situation you please.

If you ever wonder what Fate does with the cash in their Might Pot, well. Now you know.

My 64 might Diva is going to be a baker, it's decided.

@Double Capybara

Petition to alter the avatar rules so that it caps at 16 instead of doubling indefinitely forever

Otherwise poor Capy is going to starve when winter comes, still desperately hoarding Might for another waifu

So what does that mean exactly. Everything made of arksynth needs a lot of might points dropped to affect with Curses and the like?

@Rtron

i have no idea!

Vakarlon's will was for Biotech Gunk 3000^TM to be used and directed by mortal hands. While arksynth does come in 'raw' varieties that can be specialised into anything, such as Cosmic Knights, the finished (cooked?) product is for mortal use and experimentation.

Knights are fused with their suit forever, so they're very much being used and adapted by a mortal mind. Trying to force control of the Knight body means that the arksynth it's made of would no longer be under the control of the mortal mind within, and so goes against the will of Vakarlon.

If the mortal chooses to go over to Logos, though, nothing's stopping them or their biomagical cyborg body.

Beyond this it's a little harder to extrapolate, other than that arksynth, as a concept, resists change- It's designed to change constantly and in many ways, but the ways in which it does so, through mortal experimentation, is set. (Side note that it's the same with Sculptors- They undergo tremendous physical change and erratic mental change in a countless variety of ways, but the way they change, through inspiration, creativity, and then slow metamorphosis, is very consistent).

Blessing a whip made out of arksynth to become a fiery whip made out of arksynth is 100% ok. Blessing arksynth to be easier or harder for mortals to experiment with, or cursing it to no longer respond to mortal will, on the other hand, is probably impossible. Other curses (and maybe blessings!) are kind of a grey area, but they tend to go against mortal wishes, so it might not fly.

This was a rant. I should go to bed.

ed- tl;dr just ask yourself if Vakarlon would approve of this change given that he now exists to serve mortals.

A side note that the origin of the stuff does tend to make it more effective against deities/avatars/demigods than normal materials, but given the choice between this and a Might sword, go for the Might. It'll be far more effective and won't mysteriously stop working for karmic reasons. damn it trickster gods

Do you have a fruit bowl in your house

Well, you own a toilet, right?

@catchamber

You are now breathing manually. You can feel your tongue inside of your mouth.

So whats next on the IC agenda?

@LokiLeo789

Why not work on Tobia, or Diana? Those two both have a wealth of interesting stories ahead of them. Diana still needs to meet Tauga, after all.

@Lauder Speaking of, Keriss may want to meet Tauga as well. She's currently in charge of making sure Xerxes doesn't tear itself into smithereens while Amartia does an Amartia thing, which, in a surprising turn of events, probably makes her the best agent of Order anywhere nearby.

Also, she's been tasked with investigating arksynth, which is an important clue for Keriss if she wants to sleuth out what happened to Vakarlon.

ALSO

she kinda really really needs someone to teach her how to fight if she wants to go up against Lakshmi.

ed- and also, she can fly. If the investigation doesn't take her away from administration for more than a few days she should be good.

Me: *reads posts*

Tauga: *rolls up sleeves, sighing*

MORE PEOPLE DYING AND THINGS GETTING SET ON FIRE FOR THE POOR KID TO CLEAN UP

GOSH

I SUPPOSE I can always strip the freewill away from a few Cosmic Knights and dump them on Xerxes side.

@Dawnscroll

Blame this on me and my utter inability to explain or write creation sheets for anything, but this would be fairly difficult, given that Knights are made of minced-up (but still living) Vakarlon. Arksynth is designed for mortal use and experimentation- Once completed, an arksynth construct is surprisingly difficult to force changes into via divine intervention, because what you're tinkering with is effectively another god that chose to become a mortal tool.

I'll get that sheet up with the kinks ironed out in due time.

Do you have a fruit bowl in your house

Like are they a thing really

Who has fruit bowls

If he was to burn One Might for the Coronation of Elysium, what sort of effect might that have?

@Dawnscroll

Depends, have you seen how expensive royal gowns can get?
