@TalijaKey
I'm going to address your points as best I can understand them, because reading that post hurts my eyes.

1. All of humanity's greatest ideas and creations have been in order to give nature the finger. No claws, venom, or dermal plates? FUCK YOU, WE'RE MAKING TOOLS. Nature wants us to live in trees? FUCK YOU, HUNTING PARTIES AND MUD HUTS. Nature wants to limit our population as hunter-gatherers? HAHA, NOPE, AGRICULTURE LOSERS. Nature wants to keep us confined to a single landmass with large bodies of water? GUESS WHAT FUCKERS, WE MADE BOATS. Nature wants to limit where we can grow crops? MEET IRRIGATION, FUCKTARDS.

Each and every great invention that allowed civilization to be what it is today has been a punch in the throat of nature. Humanity's struggle has not been to "follow nature's ideas and laws." It's been to break them as flagrantly and frequently as possible.

2. Nature is not the manifestation of ideas. What you're thinking of is some kind of collective unconscious dreamworld dealy. Nature is nature, the things that aren't man-made.

3. If "SHE COULDN'T DECIDE" is an acceptable reason for such a nonsensical domain, then I shall be god of Survival, Conflict, Ingenuity, Divinity, and The Third Tuesday of Every Month. Svetovid is the god of war and clairvoyance, which shares a word with "strategy" in the Slavic tongues. Veles is the god of "magic" in the sense that "magic" is "any knowledge peasants don't understand." Such as trade and the care of livestock.


*waves hand*

Not in the mood to debate.

@Vahir Dear gm, shall I change my character? Yes or no?

I personally like the idea of a rival secret God constantly trying to fuck us over


It'll make things really interesting when we see our creations get super corrupted and not even knowing why.

Also I don't think clanjos needs a firing squad, he raised some valid points and his character is cool.

Does that mean you're cool with my character?


Sure, we needed a griefer on board. Post away in the character tab.

@Vahir Dear gm, shall I change my character? Yes or no?


I'm fine with your character as-is. My reasoning is, you clearly see those aspects as being related, parts of a bigger whole, regardless if other people disagree. Your god's view on those aspects are the same as yours; so it doesn't matter whether or not you're actually right, because your god personifies your opinion on it. Gods are manifestations of an idea, an ideology.

Ugh... That seemed a hell of a lot less confusing in my head.

We don't take kindly to chemistry jokes around here, no sir!

Honestly, my problem is that Talija is obviously aping the other gods.

The Arguing God is the god of Darwinian Evolution? HA! I'll be the god of plants and animals!
There's a god of structures and inanimate objects? HA! I'll be the god of ideas and creativity!
There's a god of wind and storms? HA! I'll be the god of rain!

I wouldn't be surprised if the sheet gets edited to include darkness or betrayal or something.

Talija posted since Oscar did; and he hasn't edited his post since.

I understand where you're coming from, feeling like he's intruding on your turf. But it seems like he's a positive, optimistic, everything-is-wonderful nature, while you're a cynical, violent, Darwinian nature. Two views of the same coin, that aren't mutually exclusive.

I've seen pedantic arguments tear apart RPs before by causing spiraling player feuds, and I'm getting bad vibes for where this is heading. So what I guess I want to know is: Do you care enough about this to risk that?

I by no means feel intruded upon. The sky is a very different domain from rain, so kindly, exclude me from your rant.
