[OOC] Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

[Skyrte]

Where was that guy who wanted to make a demigod of blacksmithing? Once I get my Hain Hero trained I should get his demigod made, given the explosion of sentient races lately. If you're out there, could you show me your character sheet? Appearance, personality, abilities, goals. It will help me figure out how to go about making your demigod. And we'll need to collab for the creation, probably.

Speaking of the explosion of sentient races, I need to hurry up and get my Hero trained, or else I'm going to get left behind. But I'm already getting left behind, as I've got IRL stuff to do and there are many posts.

@BBeast

ayyo right here
I actually haven't made the sheet yet, I've been distracted, but I will definitely start it tonight and finish it tomorrow night now that it's more appropriate to have him in.

Oh crap, feels like my idea of making Nymphs out of Allure + Meimu/Notte is at risk. Good thing Ilunabar still has a free point in case he needs to be saved

@Double Capybara

He'll live, there's no need to worry... ง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)ง

Here's an excellent question... are the avatars extension to our gods or do they have their own personality? And what about if we just wanted sort of puppet shades or avatars?

@Dawnscroll

They can have separate personalities.

[Lugubrious]

Hmm.

@Kho, khookies for Allure due to the recent collab between Allure and Notte, please.

[Dawnscroll]

So say we wanted to make a shit ton of low level puppet esque avatars: made in our image, could probably tussle with a average soldier/recruit, but obviously torn to shreds by higher power foes. Maybe let our gods flit their consciousness to one unit and have normal avatar powers to that one. Otherwise have very basic processing power. On death, they vanish into smoke...

[Double Capybara]

Uhm, on Ilunabar's case the avatars have personality because she is a writer. In truth they are just her playing dolls.
Don't know how convincing other gods would be at that, but not up to me really.

There is the fact that Ilunabar won't be picking up heroes so the avatars are my way of creating alt stories (though I will start to describe more random stuffo)

Also, Avatar prices go up insanely, 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048....
And they don't go down when your avatar goes to dust...

@Dawnscroll

So basically like the Collectors from ME.

Low level guys to shoot up, and one of them goes SUPER SAIYAN whenver the God possesses them to make them a full fleshed avatar.

I would think it'd be okay, provided that you understand that while they're unpossessed they could probably get possessed by other Gods. If Vestec made a bunch of mini slaves that are basically shells, some other God could go and possess/take them from him.

@Dawnscroll

See what Capybara said. But also, why would you create Avatars for that? Just create a race of mindless minions controlled directly by Logos.

[Dawnscroll]

@Rtron No idea what Collectors are, but you clearly got the concept.

If they're possessed by the other gods, what occurs then, considering they're not actually a species and part of the Gods own magic?

@Dawnscroll

YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED MASS EFFECT. Heretic. :p

Anyways, I imagine bad things happen. Explosions and pain for someone.

Unless the other god overpowers that small bit of magic (as all of the automatons are a bit of said god's magic. If I understand correctly.), then they get this weak...easily killed...really usesless by itself thing.

[Kho]

Something that may have been lost in translation: gods do not expend effort, or 'flit between', avatars and their actual body. They can do thing simultaneously with 100% focus.

[Dawnscroll]

Who gets it the weak body? The god attempting to posses a puppet that's not theirs?

Basically, the puppets would serve as an easy way of... coercing local populations to obey.

@Kho

Dawnscroll is talking about rather than spending 1 might on one avatar, he spends one might on a host of very weak avatars, where one of them can be given more attention by the God to make it a regular avatar.

I think that's right at least.

[Dawnscroll]

@Rtron Spot on. More than happy to pay more than 1 Might for such a setup.

[Antarctic Termite]

@BBeast Ah shit whoops, looks like I wasn't paying attention. Once I have a laptop I'll go edit that so that it makes Stone Chipper's true identity more secretive, if that suits you?

[Cyclone]

@Antarctic Termite

In the latest collab, I took the liberty of assuming that Maize continued to follow Slough and party. Hope that goes fine with you. Do you intend to respond to this part of my recent post, or can I just assume that Maize went with Ventus and that Jvan didn't see fit to talk after they landed by the river mouth?

If you want to respond then no rush; I'm just wondering whether Ventus can go home yet or if there's still a need for him to stay down on Galbar.

[Hael]

With all the talk about Demigods lately, I've decided not to bring back Undasis. When/if second characters are allowed, I'll be making a brand new one starting as a Demi

Good. Gooooooooooooooood.

Zephyrion can then be the asshole to flood the world, bringing us full circle and establishing that we now have a flying, inescapable Kraken this time around!
