Bio

Back when dinosaurs ruled the Earth, I got started with writing online on the Spore forums. Man, those were the days. We're talking like 12 years ago 2010-ish!

I've been here on and off for almost as long, and have GM'd a bunch of different things to varying success.

Word of my splendor:

Well, played it twice, both times I died young. Yup.


There's a 'Go back' button in the top right. I always picked all the dumb decisions just to read the hilarious deaths, then went back and actually tried
I got two endings in Eternal. In one I was emperor, turned into a machine, and ruled until they colonized another planet. In the other I made Eternals that could breed and then they inherited the empire and killed off about everything else.

What ending did you get?
Been a while since I've seen activity. Should I advance turn?


Don't see why not, since those that miss it can just get a prep turn.

It'd be funny if the god who answered his prayer told him that in order to give him power, the memory of him would be deleted from the world. Everything that he did would be forgotten and only him and the ones who followed him to death would know who Ialu fought against in the last war. Spooky.


It'd be more funny if Ialu heard the prayer


If you noticed two or so posts back he comes home to find his little girlfriend's dead body and then remember that he killed her in one of his fits of rage...He was always rather volatile, but drinking Vestec's blood and carrying around the Blade of Chaos has made him something of a bipolar, sadistic tyrant at times. He has anger issues.

Though what would happen if a demigod had children anyways? Would they be hero level?

Demigods are immortal mind you. Aside from that, I don't really see how it would affect our characters much, although I too am trying to think up things that Ull would be doing in the meantime, and its proving quite difficult.


Immortal yes, but my point being that it's not as if a decade is nothing to them. A century would be a really long time considering how young most are. Considering how active Ialu has been thus far and how much he accomplished in only a third the time that this skip will cover, I feel that some huge things should have happened but I can't imagine what.

I'd say that you'd have it the best in this timeskip. Whereas I imagine this hundred years would be brutal for Ialu and his people, Ull would be able to just sit back and watch as the Uri worship of him slowly takes root and spreads.

Vestec: Hmmm. Look at how peaceful this dragon land is. *Starts a civil war with a bunch of Chaos Dragons* That's better.


What chaos dragons? Those dead ones from Garakai that Ialu killed a century ago?

Just kidding, of course. =P Aztoc is going to be in for a very pleasant turn of events, all things considered.

Well, I can see him conquering the rest of the Realms of Man, sure, there's no one there. But conquering the Cimex, who number in the tens of thousands and are crazy strong, and the Uri, with all their new buffs? Don't think it'll be that simple man, especially not with a human pop of 4500 (or whatever it'll be after this next battle)


Note that I said "or crumble", I'm not trying to just find an excuse to take over Arguilla. The thing is that Ialu obviously wouldn't just sit around this whole time but I have no clue what to do with a timeskip that long. Am I supposed to say that he found his inner tranquility and peace has reigned? That's he's spent an entire century plotting? That he's fought a war for this long? Those all sound unlikely and rather bland.

So what would he even do if we go ahead with a giant skip? I'm open to any suggestions you have. Keep in mind that 100 years actually IS a really long time for most characters, considering Ialu is the oldest demigod and I'd put his age at around 35 right now. Perhaps it's just a lack of creativity on my part but I see a timeskip of that long doing more harm than good to any storyline that we're trying to make.
@Kho

I have to wonder what Ialu would even be doing for all of a century. It seems really long and I imagine his little kingdom would have either crumbled or conquered everything, since he has enemies and all. You're aware that Sauranth made 7,000 new humans and put them in Orabahk, right?
@Cyclone Shouldn't mess with hell. The purity and order of death cannot be tainted by such...ugly chaos.


Well after getting the ending where I just become a vampire and do nothing, I decided not to help them. Didn't realize that meant turning into some hellfire lich-demon thing
