The New Gods: Kings of the Multiverse

@Stylobilly Seig in my opinion would at best have a neutral relationship with the Machine God as yes he runs and orderly empire but his methods are distasteful and unnecessary in the eyes of one such as Orren. No benefit would be attained for Orren.

@DostHou Thanks that helps.

[Dead Cruiser]

@DostHou I'm glad you did actually because I totally overlooked @Dezuel's character.

Which will need some work before I can accept it. PM me and we'll work it out.

[Dark Cloud]

@Yukitamas Now, I can see Orren and Tachton as allies as they have similar aims.

A Myth

Having recently returned from the first of his mysterious sojourns into the realms of the gods, Able sat alone on a beach, contemplating the meaning of Divinity. Wishing(as gods do) to exert his will on the world, he stretched out his hand, and called for something long forgotten to reveal itself to him. In its turn, the sea roiled before him and spat upon the sand a length of old, bleached wood. It was a mast to a ship, long lost to the sea, but preserved through the Song that Able could wield at his will. It still held the old iron fittings for the sail and the ropes that it once held.

Able considered the unusual gift, and decided to exert his will again, though this time he chose to do so through another. With his great might, he lifted the mast onto his shoulder, and carried it with him. In this strange manner, he traveled from town to town, until he found an artisan whose work satisfied him. Able dropped the mast on the artisan's doorstep, and bade him craft great weapons from it. The artisan inspected the mast, and the iron fittings, and set to work.

From the wood, he made a haft to a spear, as well as a hammer. Also, he made a two bows, one an ordinary long bow, and the other a strange curved thing that he made upon Able's description. The iron, imbued with the bones of great animals, was reforged into a spear head, a hammer head, and a short sword. Lastly, what wood remained was rendered into planks, and formed into twelve round shields.

Able, unknown to the artisan, composed a great ballad for each of the weapons, and a single such song for the shields as a whole. In this way, he imbued them with power, and by spreading the songs he wrote, he also helped to preserve them all.

The hammer stayed with the artisan, who used it to create still more wonders. The sword was given to Elga, the Jarl with whom Able fought to kill the invading god Seig. The bows were given to a pair of brothers who Able met in his travels(a story for another time), and Able kept the spear himself. The shields were scattered around Heimark, where their legends grow to this day.

As a whole, the weapons are called the Unterax.

However amongst his enemies would be:

- Monica/@Sakaki Chizuru: She is an unnecessary wrench in Orren's grand plan as she seems likely to try to associate with the heavenly host of the Angels, she isn't beneficial to him.
- Sau/@rezay: Orren regards the lizard highly yet at the same time he also trust's the behemoth the least of all the New God's as both their aims are similar yet too different in the way they go about attaining such goals.
- ANYM/@ZAVAZggg: Possibly his greatest enemy of all the New Gods, ANYM seeks to rule that which he (in the Machine Gods opinion) doesn't deserve to rule. Therefore if he ever crosses Orren or blocks him from his goals, he will stop at nothing to destroy ANYM like he would erase a blip in a faulty computer system.

@Stylobilly What is the myth about?

[Sakaki Chizuru]

@Dark CloudI think you tagged the wrong person for Monica. . .

[Dark Cloud]

@Sakaki Chizuru Fixed

[Dark Cloud]

I'm just bored, anyone have any imput on their possible relations to Orren or anyone else?

That's a lot of red

[DostHou]

Ertholt is solidly lawful neutral and doesn't really care about others so long as it doesn't interfere too much with his abstract goals.

That said, any other character that works towards reshaping the current state of heaven into something that coincides with what he believes is an orderly universe, he'd support them to a degree.

So characters like Tachton so far, and depending on what they mean in their path, Arasti.

Everyone else would have neutral relations with degrees of closeness from his point of view.

@DostHouYes, I ran into that issue. I interpreted his aspect as meaning he was potentially close to the idea of becoming one with god, and with himself being a vessel for god (think I got that right). So for certain other Aspects, I can imagine some conflict. Like Orren (Progress), who rejects any idea of that sort

@rezay

I love how much red I have.

[rezay]

@DostHouYes, I ran into that issue. I interpreted his aspect as meaning he was potentially close to the idea of becoming one with god, and with himself being a vessel for god (think I got that right). So for certain aspects where there isn't such a strong conception of god, like Orren (Progress), there can be conflict

NOW THAT'S A LOT OF DAMAGE

[Chris488]

Monica walking around asking people why they are all so violent and attempting to assert dominance...

Her Aspect activates.

"Great, now I'm violent and attempting to assert dominance..."

---------------------------------------------------------------

She just wants to end the fighting, when she isn't involuntarily participating in aforementioned fighting.

[Dark Cloud]

@Chris488 But how would she go about doing that? And what's her angle?
