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

@Cyclone Basically, following the Orifid revolution the Palowids were largely exterminated. Those who survived became concubines in the royal court at Darofid, and they're likely still there

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

@Kho In the next few turns, I am planning on creating shamanism. Since you (Kho) created animism, do you want to co-create it with me. I guess this could go to anyone, but Kho is the one that did the thing that set up shamanism. (And by shamanism, I mean full-on magic stuff with invoking nature spirits, though I guess spiritual stuff will also be there too)

@Leotamer

Seihdhara didn't really create animism, she just threw souls everywhere and it ended up creating an animist reality - animism as a faith doesn't exist, souls inhabiting all things (which is what animists believe) is what exists. Seihdhara did this accidentally, it wasn't a thought-through process. If you want to create shamanism or animism as a mortal practice or as a branch of magic, Kap Gam is your port of call.

@Kho When is Siehdhara going to clean her hair?

@Double Capybara

Oh, whenever the fancy strikes her. She might have even decided that she rather likes it now xP

Godspeed!

There's a lot I'd like to do this turn, but assignments demand my attention. Should be done with it all today and you can expect a flurry of posts on the morrow.

Godspeed!

<Snipped quote by Kho>

She is not from Divinus.

there is only one thing imbued to them all, a deep respect for ants, a repayment for kindness the goddess received in her original universe. Not even the ones altered by other gods can break that rule.

@Double Capybara

Now I am become death

Godspeed!

@Antarctic Termite have to be honest, I later regretted using the word 'impregnate'. Far too unsubtle. Shoulda been something more like... 'it was only natural that a such a worthy object created of the alloy of iron and carbon and other elements shaped in a vaguely acicular shape, should cause the deepest quintessence of its very existence which had in turn emerged from the crimson depths of her soul to be suffused with the very being of a furred essence rippling with power even in the spirit so as to give cause to the coming into the world of this nouvel enfant.'

edit: but alas alack 'tis all too late the deed is done and impregnate was the word

Godspeed!

@Lauder When have I ever shown the slightest interest in horses? I thought I had made pretty clear that my undying loyalty lies with redhaired-folk.
