You also know me well enough to know everything has a reason for being as it is. They aren't just assholes for no reason at all and that I remember telling you. :P

Be that as it may, ask yourself, what have we've done to really deserve their full love and adulteration? This would be the second time mortals would be allowed the gift of the gods after fixing the mortals mistakes. They may want to take a more backseat role just to see how the mortals act this time, under different circumstances. A test, if you will. What you perceive them as being "assholes" could also just very well be their own cynical belief thay mortals will once again fail their expectations. Demanding and aloof they may be, if we can rise to their challenges, they will think differently than before. With any luck, they may even see us in a positive light. But how can they show faith in us, if we do not give faith in them?

If they're taking a backseat role why are they constantly fucking with everything? I mean we just talked about this before, they don't care about humanity or anyone, they see all this as something for their own personal amusement. They're not even portrayed as particularly wise, just a pack of children with too much power. at least, that's the vibe I've got. They are not worthy of worship if they are no better than us.

They don't give a fuck anymore. It's all a game to them. You have to prove that the races of Tiien are worth actually being guided and cared for. They're worthy. Right now, the Gods just go 'We tried. Now they're just pawns to amuse ourselves with'

Having a reason doesn't mean it's a good reason...
Fallenreaper said
And like Alaira's reasons are always good for being rude, brash and over the top? >_>
Rtron said
Alright.

Yeah. she doesn't have much in the way of good reasons, but she isn't a god. She can afford to be irresponsible.
Fallenreaper said
You've obvious have never read Greek Myths if you believe that because they are powerful that they need to be responsible. Besides, if they were then magic would only be given to those they believed worthy of it...how many of our PCs do you honestly think fit that bill? I know Alaira and Grey doesn't because they have flaws like the rest of the PCs.

The Greek gods...they.....the Greek gods.......they are just.....crazy.....so much drama...... It's all she slept with him, so she cursed her. He slept with her and she gave birth to a giant cyclops. That same he slept with another her and she gave birth to a giant sea monster. He tore off some guys dick and threw it into the ocean then out popped a god. The main three have daddy issues and are constantly at each others throats. Every other day one of them slept with a mortal and that mortal gave birth to a demi-god and was either promptly killed by other mortals or cursed for all eternity by the gods wife. It's like taking the most drama filled high school, giving the high schoolers godly powers, immortality, an endless sex drive and endless amounts of alcohol. Then you get something similar to the Greek gods.

And yet out of every Greek god, everyone always wants to shit on Hades. Aside from kidnapping Persephone, I honestly cannot think of a SINGLE bad thing Hades ever did in Greek Mythology, even Orpheus' Ordeal wasn't his bad; he fucking warned him not to look at his wife until they left, if he wanted to be a dick, he could have not said anything at all. Same with Persephone, she ate the fucking food in the Underworld, and got stuck there. Hades even LETS HER GO DO WHATEVER SHE FUCKIN' WANTS FOR LIKE, 9 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. Meanwhile, Posiedon was flooding the world and leaving only a few people alive, Athena turned a priestess into Medusa because she had the AUDACITY to be raped by Poseidon in her temple, and Zeus stuck his fat, thick, greased lightning in everything with a hole. I can;t think of shit Apollo did, aside from indirectly killing Icarus.
