[IC] Becoming a God

[KatherinWinter]

Through out the world a cry has gone out. The God and Goddess that have watched over all creatures are gone. Prophets all over the word began telling the story of how ordinary humans can take the place of the missing God and Goddess. A quest and a trail has been set. All those who are interest are welcome to join. The quest will begin with a festival in the middle of the plains of Oklahoma.

oh sorry

[KatherinWinter]

Roxy rolled her eyes at the sight of the festival. She would avoid the whole thing if she could be the Goddess of Shadows had been whispering to her for years. Until a couple of years ago when the whispers suddenly stopped. Now she know why the Goddess had stopped talking to her. When she heard there was a quest to replace the missing Gods and Goddesses Roxy knew that she would have to replace the Goddess that had watched over her for so long. Unfortunately in order to join the quest she had to deal with people. She hated dealing with people. With a sigh she made her way to look where to sign up.

emit walked into the plains of Olkahoma and saw a person behind a counter emit walked over to him and said 'hey bro gimmie a contract to sign cuz i'm the god of rap dawg' the person behind the counter signed and handed him a contract emit looked at it for a bit then signed it and then the guy behind the counter said 'ugh please hurry up the lines getting long' emit signed at this and said 'yeah sure dawg see ya later' and walked out of the line and waited and also saw someone looking for a place to sign up [roxy] emit walked over to her and pointed at the counter and said 'yo the place where ya sign is over there dawg'

The festival certainly was impressive. Being from a small town, Florence had never really seen anything more than a street fair. Before, he had always thought the midwest as a barren place where people sometimes farmed. Seeing something like this, though, gave him a new perspective. Maybe they were onto something, at the very least, it seemed like a more peaceful life.

He still didn't know if he even belonged here. After all, he had never seen himself fit to be a god. However, someone had to fill in for the god of Fortune, and he couldn't trust his life to just anyone. Maybe being a god wouldn't be so bad, either - He could, for once, decide what to do without financial restrictions. It wasn't surprising to see the amount of people at the festival, and it made him a little nervous. What would the competition even be? He could fight, but he wasn't the brightest. A lot of people here would surely be more qualified. But he couldn't think like that, or there would be no way he would make this trip worthwhile. Florence, pushing the negative thoughts out, went to go sign up.

Roxy rolled her eyes. She didnt need the help of someone who barely spoke English. "I am not a dog. I am very aware of where the sign up booth is." She might not be the smartest person around but she could read. They had place the booth at the entrance and labeled it clearly. She hesitated because she wasnt sure she should be doing this. But she knew that someone had to replace the Goddess of shadows. And after everything the goddess had done for her Roxy wanted that person to be her. She took an application and began filling it out.

'fine then i was just being nice dawg' and then emit replied 'if i can't call ya dawg,then what will i calll ya den dawg'

"Here is a weird suggestion." Roxy told him. "You might try asking my name. I mean that is what people want to be called. I am thinking that would be more true of higher beings like Gods and Goddesses."

[nerminator]

yeah sure but ya never bothered to tell me your name dawg' Emit said to the girl 'what do ya suppose i call ya dem dawg'

Roxy smirked and shook her head. While it was true that she hadnt told him her name that wasnt a reason to to call her a dog. "You can call me Roxy."

[nerminator]

'yeah well nice to meet ya' emit said to roxy then heard a trumpet and emit looked to the right a whole group of people were gathering,emit ran over there and said 'well i guess the contest be startin now bye roxy-dawg'

[KatherinWinter]

Though the fair grounds the PA system crackle. "All contestants please come to the main area. We will be going over the rules and requirements now."

[sheeplon]

Florence made his way to to the main part of the fair after filling out everything necessary. The paperwork part confused him a bit, considering it seemed a bit trivial to fill out a form to become a god, but he decided not to question it/ Now, with the contestants separated from the main crowd, he had a better view of what he was up against. While there were plenty of people that looked like they belonged here, many of the contestants looked like they were on their last straw, here as a final act of desperation. Thinking about himself, Florence wondered where he fit into the spectrum to onlookers. He wasn't even quite sure where he would place himself, to be honest. Sure, he could hold his own, but living in poverty put him here for need more than anything. Everyone around him was talking but he ignored them, absorbed in his own thoughts.

[KatherinWinter]

Roxy silently made her way to the main area where the others were gathered. She stayed to the back of the crowd. She didnt want people in her personal space. She also wanted a chance to observe the others that were joining this quest. There was no telling what this quest would entail. She needed to evaluate everyone's strengths and weaknesses. She wondered what they would have to do to prove themselves worthy of ascension.

Emit walked into the group and listened as a man went over the rules

apparently we were going to tame a animal,well this is gonna be easy

[KatherinWinter]

"The quest that will begin today will challenge all of you. You will be tested mentally, physically, and spiritually. You will make allies and rivalries." The prophets decreed over the PA system. "You are not allow kill each other and we would strongly to suggest that you do not injure each other. You never know when you might need each other. This quest will not be easy. Many of you will fail but a few of you will access to greatness. You will have to create the God or Goddess you wished to be come. Your first challenge is to capture and tame an animal companion." The prophets announced. "For some this will be easy for others it will be difficult. You must all travel together. You can help or hamper each other as much as you want. Please line up to recieve your funding."

[nerminator]

Emit stood in line as he received his 'funding' which wasn't really anything except for 50 dollars
the group was walking and trying to find a place to 'capture and tame' a animal companion [dear god this crap is as easy] emit looked around and saw that nobody was really doing anything but noticed a group forming so he decided to join in

[sheeplon]

As Florence lined up to receive his funding, he thought about what animal he would try and go after. Of course, it wasn't like he was going to be able to choose any animal, but it was nice to have an idea. But he had no idea of what animals were found in Oklahoma, and hoped there was something he could get that information from.

[xiledx]

Carlo had just barely gotten to the line up in time. He wondered what kind of animal he should try to get. Preferably something that wouldn't be too hard to tame.

[KatherinWinter]

Roxy smiled when one of the officials handed her a credit card. She had never had one before. She wonder about the amount. It looked one of those unlimited one's she had seen advertised. Just as she was about to ask the prophets announced "These cards have no limit. We want to make sure you are all on level playing fields. You will use these cards and not your own funds. Remember to stay together."
