[OOC] The Heavens Aflame - A Civil War Amongst the Deities

[Hellis]

I updated my character sheet. It ought to be entirely done. Tell me if there is anything illfitting or wonky about it Suess and I'll fix it :3

[MelonHead]

Morios’ likely opinions of other characters (feel free to add input or correct me if you think I’m wrong.)

Nanaeios: Serious job, serious person, no indication of appreciation for the ‘finer’ things in life, so Morios would likely find her uninteresting or someone to be avoided due to serious mood-swings. However, there is also some potential there for the opposite, so depending on how she feels about Morios would be a serious influence on his opinion of her.

Mikazliqui: With their mutual appreciation of partying these two could make unlikely friends.

Eskellon: Possible overlap/friendship over treatment of guests (Although Morios prefers party guests.) however, general old and stuffy behaviour would probably make them incompatible.

Morios: Morios is a big fan of Morios, devilishly handsome funny and with a keen knowledge of how to have a good damn time.

Metanoia: Morios sees Metanoia the way he sees most of the gods, too broody and stand-offish which tends to come off as annoying and anti-social.

Vael & Nys: Morios at least sees some potential in these two, even if they’re just as stand-offish as everyone else they lack the general cold-ness most of the gods seem to exhibit. They seem to have some idea of what life is really about, which appeals to Morios.

Dareos: Seems to appreciate a good time more than most, even if there is a slight overstep into his territory of debauchery the focus on money would make Morios and Dareos more than a little compatible. Plus, he could be Morios’ son for all he knows.

Nihris: Cold and serious and so very very dull. Much the same as the other death god.

Lathunis: Not quite as cold and stand-offish as the majority of the other gods, although so convicted and devoted to duty Morios is sure he can pull her out of her shell.

Lefredias: Hard to say with this one, relatively impartial feelings.

Dihira: Unlikely to approve of Morios, but he would be civil at least.

Sounds swell. :) What kind of friendship?

Pleasant acquaintance?

[MelonHead]

You know, you guys really should have read some of the others psychological profiles, you're almost all the same, haha.

Mikazliqui: Cold and boring, too aggressive, avoided.

Morios could have been quite fond of Vova Eztli. After all, the culmination of the plot to kill his father was essentially a decades-long orgy, followed by a drunken slaughter-party.

Noice, friends it is if your character appreciates parties.

He's toned the partying down a good deal since he was "Father of the Night Clan" but I feel like the two could be ambivalent, bordering on the friendly. Mikazliqui knows that Moiros has his place, and Moiros believes that Mikazliqui is still a reveller at heart.

[MelonHead]

I think there's a lot of links between my character's sphere of influence and Vampirism as well, with the addiction to blood, madness and debauchery.

Aka my character would be far less judgmental of your vampire children then most people.

[Dead Cruiser]

He could have had a hand in placing the curse to begin with. The "literal bloodthirst" being his idea. Maybe after Vova sired a shitload of vampires, Moiros changed his mind about the kid, and helped him in assassinating his father to make up for cursing him. And so the two have an understanding.

Incidentally, I still wouldn't mind some kind of Sun God to be Mikazliqui's mortal enemy.

My character isn't the dramatic cursing type, he's also not very old, if your character's father was incredibly evil though he could have cursed your character with blood-thirst as a way of spiting my character for suggesting he go easier on him or something similar.

As for a sun-god, you have (HeySeuss?) character who's a fire god or something, might be the closest you can get.

[Dead Cruiser]

Well, Vova's father wasn't responsible for the curse. The curse was actually a means of getting him back for siring Vova in the first place.

Though I could fluff it that the debauchery god of the previous pantheon contributed the bloodthirst, and Moiros is twisted enough to see it as something entertaining.

[HeySeuss]

Added Sileon the Dancer of Destruction, Aroesus' former right hand man and youngest brother, a primal being of fire that, thankfully, slumbers most of the time. On the other hand, well, read the sheet. You'll see why a lot of people probably have beef. The Pantheon needed a hammer to help keep the unruly in line and this helps shore up the Pantheon's power at the same time.

HeySeuss what do I need to fix in order to be accepted? Though, I was also thinking about remaking my character.

[Dead Cruiser]

I'd personally recommend posting a character sheet using the actual character sheet format in the character sheet thread.

[Crazy Guy]

Also, could we get a general timeline of the universe this roleplay occurs in, so that we can possibly organize our characters' histories and place them where they belong chronologically?

[The Fair Lady]

I know Nihris and her brothers and sisters ruled before the current pantheon. :)

[HeySeuss]

We can shake out Pantheon history before we start, but the way I have it written was that Ventu was the first deity and Vael and Nys, Aroesus, Svanus and Sileon are children of his. He was overthrown when he decided to cull humanity because they'd become too upstart and Aroesus and Svanus, at least, weren't willing to let their creations be destroyed out of sold old god's sense of being a high and mighty dick. (Svanus is dead; Noxious' character is his daughter and Svanus and Aroesus didn't see eye to eye at the end anyway)

There's room for others, and perhaps in the wake of Ventu's death, a number of beings tried to rule in the chaos; it's possible, for example, that Aroesus didn't take the mantle of rulership immediately.

Edit: Between the rule of Ventu and Aroesus' triumph, I have it now written that there were other deities and pantheons that took over before Aroesus finally did. So now we explain how the other pantheons existed and so forth.

Further Edit: I'll handle the rest of stuff today after I get home from work. 6am start time. ;)

Last edit: Here's what I have for Pantheon history and we can wiggle it around (I'm willing to modify) to work with.

Ventu was a primal deity of fire, creation and destruction, but also the absolute ruler of the world. He was content to rule the cosmic forces without doing too much with them, being a simple being of simple tastes. He sired, upon the stars, other beings, including Aroesus and Svanus, who were of a more creative, cultivating bent. They created and Ventu destroyed before the creations could get out of hand and his children become empowered. His final child was Sileon, who was like Ventu in so many respects that Ventu favored this youngest over all. And yet, Sileon stood in awe of the things he didn't entirely understand, and learned from watching his elder siblings as they moved through the world and created things, including fickle humanity and spawned their own progeny.

The time came again when Ventu was inclined to destroy the works of his children and the other things that came to being in the world, and that was when Aroesus and Svanus (and others) rebelled against them. And it was Sileon, left free, trusted, who Ventu thought understood the best, who freed them from their imprisonment in Sharzunates, who decided that he could not bear to see the works of his siblings, whom he loved, destroyed.

Aroesus and his host organized, a thing unknown to Ventu, who ruled in singular absolutism, and revolted against the king of the gods. After the death of Ventu, there were other mighty beings that tried to take Ventu's place in turn and Aroesus' Pantheon fought them under his leadership. The other siblings found roles in the court of Krona that befit their talents; but Sileon inherited the raw strength and primal of his sire, and became a force of destruction akin to his father, though he voluntarily put himself into slumber in a mountain so that the creation might thrive, electing to hold himself aloof until needed. From time to time, Aroesus would call upon Sileon to assist in maintaining the order of Krona, to bring other deities and beings into the order, and for this, he would be awakened and unleashed upon enemies. Even if they were powerful, they were brought low by the combined cooperative might of the sons of Ventu.

Apologies, HeySeuss, I am a rookie and made a rookie mistake by accidently putting one of my posts in the IC section. It was supposed to be here. Please delete it.
