Well from my analysis we have the following roster (in the order of CS's):

"Mystic"
"Trickster"
"Grandmaster"
"Brawler"
"Artisan"
"Manipulator"
"Wizard"
"Exile"
"Death"
"Amazon"
"Shifter"
"Don"
"Knight"

we could use a "Conqueror"


Thats it. Thats perfect. I'll do a conqueror on the demons side who was hellbent (pun intended) on conquest, but is now starting to doubt his cause.

The character would be able to go either way, good or evil, depending on the IC...

Why not progress?

Like a machine overlord who wishes to progress technology beyond the current era. The spirit 1of the scientist and engineer seeking to shun magic in favor of logic and design. They would be contemporary in our sense with technology, which would be like magic to the mortals and gods of yore.

“you have built a tower in the desert and within stored all the knowledge of the world... This is my tower." The technomancer holds up a 1Tb hard drive.

I was wondering about this, myself. What is your opinion/preference?

...So, I don't really do many Advanced RP's, but this has caught my interest. Do you fellows have room for one more person? I feel I am perfectly capable of living up to advanced standards.

If so, do you have need of a God/Goddess that just likes going around and just destroying things for fun? Chaos is fun, yo.

Although, I feel she might better fall under a 'corrupter of souls', though maybe not entirely in the evil or bad sense.

Anyways, I can be flexible when making her. I see that less humans = more power for our gods, which is cool, but what about someone that corrupts humans and turns them into some horrible abominations?

EDIT: I see we already have someone that could be a bit similar, so let me make a clarification about her abilities.

She doesn't really tempt people. She simply turns people into her pets in some manner. Usually just by being around her/a place inhabited by her creatures. Ever played dark souls? Think of her as a bit like the Abyss/Manus, I would imagine.

As far as pre-existing relationships go, Therelon and Zhystkrexas have both been operating out of Koyatia for a long time. There's probably some history going on there.

Personally, I can't imagine Therelon likes Zhystkrexas very much.

Probably not. Few demigods would like him. Although Zhystkrexas leaves Therelon well enough alone for now. The bird can keep his tower, and hoard his information, knowledge and wisdom, all sorts of spellcraft that he wants. It is far more convenient that way such that Zhystkrexas doesn't need to compile it himself when someone else can do it for him. After all, if that is Therelon's desire, then Zhystkrexas shall let him pursue it.

See, Zhystkrexas represents all the "sins" in his anecdotes.

He is Prideful for he believes it is his right to rule as the one and only Demigod.
He is Greedy for he continues to take even with what he already has.
He is Lustful for he enjoys wooing mortals into his game.
He is Envious for he seeks to take the holdings of the other kin.
He is Gluttonous for he freely feasts upon all he encounters.
He is Wrathful for he twists the nature of the desires granted.
He is Apathetic for he patiently waits for all to succumb to him.

Well, my main concern is that if he's running around making TVs and AK-47s, the world would know about them and wouldn't still be stuck in pre-industrial stasis. Plus, you need an entire industrial base to make tech stuff; you can't make a computer without a technologically advanced civilization to mine the ore and put it together.

But... If we can morph mortals into freaking dragons, we should also be able to morph them into, say, a cyborg with a gattling gun for an arm and an advanced AI advisor on board. So all the character's tech would have to be physically part of him. He would also have to go full Brotherhood of Steel, hoarding all technology and killing anyone who tries to copy his stuff, to explain why we don't have spaceships and computers by now.

There's technically 2 Characters similar to that line of thought.

There's Azoth who I believe turns his followers into abominations. There is also that pallid one who sucks the colour of his kids. Zhystkrexas doesn't have to do anything but merely bring out the inner demons inside of you and you shall turn into the worst possible version of yourself by your own doing.

How about an evil sexy temptress that seduses people and...devours their souls or something?

From what I read, Azoth is simply a master of Illusion and can control lesser animals, and Pallid is simply some form of...color sucking abomination.

Like the beasts from bloodborne, or those things in Oolacile from Dark Souls 1. That's what my character would essentially do.

My character would literally turn a human into some form of abomination, twisting its soul and very essence into something...else entirely.

Aye, she'd do that. Sorta. That 'devouring their soul' would be the above kinda.

We already have that <_< expect he's male. Although I suppose you could see him as female. But his allure transcends sexuality.

Zhystkrexas has the whole seducing and devouring and evil bit going for him.

Azothi, the Lost Tribe. Little is known about the original Azothi culture, save that they were nomads and raiders who worshiped their God-King Azoth and a cruel pantheon of demons and dark gods, practicing horrendous forms of human sacrifice. Over millennia, their proximity to dark magic and alien energies twisted them into degenerate mutants and beastmen who continue to this day to haunt the dark corners of the world and plague the Etruscian Republic. The fall of the Azothi into half-feral monsters took place well before the imprisonment of the demons, and Azoth their god spent many years alternatively instigating invasions of civilized lands by his mutant beastmen and working to weaken those civilizations from within.

that can be his tribe all he wants it to be. Her tribe would be entirely different.

But those aren't his powers stated in his CS.

If Vahir is uncomfortable of course, I can definitely make something else. I have no strong opinions one way or another, though I do think her powers/tribe I have in mind would be fairly different from everyone else.

Not really. Eyra was very thorough in wiping out holdouts of the other Children. Even if there was another island, it'd have been conquered a century ago. And even if it wasn't, the culture would have morphed into something unrecognizable after all that time. None of the original tribes are still around; many of their traditions continue on, but generally in a warped fashion, or in secret. A thousand years is a long time after all.

Well, your idea seems different enough (consciously spawning horrors as opposed to mutating by side effect) for it not to get confusing. In this case, I'd say that it's fine if the other people don't mind.

If thats the case then I suppose a watered down warrior culture that exists on the outskirts of the world nation, with only mere myths and fables of the great dragon that once harbored their people, be alright then? I was also thinking that due to him being a dragon, with how mosntrous the reputation of such beasts are, the censorship district rewrote kilgarrah as a rutheless demonic tyrant as to further tarnish his reputation to prevent his tales from inspiring those that may follow his example in future generations, and sort of spites against all the glory he and his tribe had spent an eternity building upon battles and honor? Just a thought as that side of the story is your department as well.
