I've been pronouncing it softly. And I've been pronouncing Achozaal's 'ch' hard.

Blame English loaning from Latin loaning from Ancient Greek. Something was bound to go wrong along the way.

@Kho This is why all good roleplays are written exclusively in Esperanto.

(to be fair I switched to a hard acho too eventually so it's all super moot)

Ah well.

So, does this mean Teknall made space robots who are perpetually expanding? o.o bit scary - what happens if they meet resistance?

:o I thought it came from ch like in chitin, the thing bug armors are made from in Skyrim. As a result, a picture of a blue bug always came to mind when I thought of Chiral Phi. Always.

another lil note on grotling rave clusterfuckposting: Grot's soul doesn't actually watch over the Grotcararsa or any other tribe, that's just their story. It was actually stolen by Lifprasil and slumbers in his possession.

...which raises the question of whether we may have accidentally created the next Vakarlon/Serandor dynamic.

ed: the Prime Vosh's soul reincarnated into an aardvark named Snorple and is currently in the employment of Dabbles. I'm declaring this canon by executive GM action.

As a chemist, I can confidently say that 'chiral' is pronounced with a hard 'ch'.

Ah well.

So, does this mean Teknall made space robots who are perpetually expanding? o.o bit scary - what happens if they meet resistance?


Yes. Yes it does. You will find out about resistance in later posts.

How old do demigod live to? I didn't see it, but I will look again.


Demigods are immortal (although they can be killed).

Do I have to start as a kid?


You start at whatever apparent age you like, if apparent age is a meaningful concept for the form you have chosen. Most demigods have come into existence as adults.

Who is willing to be a parent... wow that is a strange question to ask. Well anyway who wants to be the parent of a demigod of fear?


I will point out, just for your information, that when gods give birth to demigods, it is very rarely in a manner a biological creature might call giving birth, and biologically similar conception is even rarer. The common thread is that the parent(s) mix their divine essences together (somehow) and a demigod pops into being (somehow).

I was thinking of my domain being fear, and my portfolio the unknown. As in fear of the new, different, unknown. Is that too broad?


That sounds like a reasonable choice. As Termite suggested, could you flesh it out? What can you do with it? For a rather abstract Portfolio, it would be a good idea to think up of some examples.

Since I'm feeling generous, I'll compile a summary of the demigods with regards to these questions for some examples.



As you can see, the Divinusian pantheon is a diverse bunch.

Belvast isn't exactly inactive, I've just not gotten round to progressing his storyline since Irish left ^^' I DO have plans for him though. He has a new brother* and things are going to be heating up.

*Zerabil isn't a demigod, I swear - for various reasons I don't actually have, he's a hero

Edit: Termite, can you tell us more about the Jvanic Heartlands (or, if you have done so elsewhere, link please?). How does one go about visiting/going on pilgrimage to them?

A step by step guide:

  • Locate Jvan.
  • Open collab.
  • Walk inside.
  • ???????
  • Profit!


It's basically a reminder that Jvan is huge, hollow, easily located (and will be even more so after an upcoming post), and completely undefended, so anyone (mortal or otherwise) who wants to explore her can do so. She's shaped like a moon-sized metal sponge, so it's literally just a matter of finding the Grey Plateau and strolling into it.

The Heartlands can be thought of as stable clouds of environment that float in a circulatory system of empty void permeating much of Jvan. You'll see specific examples when Lambda and her boyfriend go on a date in one and a certain other god messes around with several of them.

All have life and some have civilisations, but none have souls, and often Heartland life is so foreign as to be unrecognisable as life at all. Heartland life and materials leak out around Jvan but don't tend to last long unless made to do so.

Would there be any connection between Grotling Soul Weapons and the Ik'Grarg'Ki of the Treeminds? Though Grotling Soul Weapons are clearly far more powerful, I always imagined the Treeminds as having a spiritual bond with their Ik'Grarg'Ki. But in my mind I placed it under Belruarcian rather than Astartian magic. Now that I think on it though, the intrinsically emotional nature of the bond and the process of carving the Ik'Grarg'Ki lends more credence to it being Astartian in nature. But, beyond the 1 Might spent on creating the Treeminds, I never spent anything on teaching them that particular magic. So they either tapped into Astartian magic on their own (which explains why, beyond the bond itself, there isn't much to Ik'Grag'Kis), or its purely psychological.
I found the similarities fascinating and think there is potential there for Treeminds to learn from Grotlings. Somehow.
That is, if they haven't already developed their Ik'Grag'Kis in some different manner. Will need to work out what's happened to them since whenever.

Edit: Page 27. The name's Khlimber. Kho Khlimber. Now - to the head!
