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

[lif]

Good lord people, my country has gone full bananas and is starting to trip on itself. Might have my post consistency hurt because of it, the last two were already rushed

Also, new page thing, I just love doing these :3
Use it well Lif, cause this is the last time Ilunabar is helping a non-dying hero

My Hider

Also, @Kho
I will ask again, is it okay to describe the evolution of a species across the eons before spending might to turn the species into intelligent humanoids? I kinda want to start working it now instead of making it sudden when I get the might to create them.

@Double Capybara

For a hot second I thought you drew an anime girl in the corner. The internet has ruined me.

Btw, if you want you could ask me to draw an illustration or two - I need practice in between art assignments, which is why I'm already drawing a specialized banner for each Lif post. This next one is probably going to be of Lif and Allure facing off, actually. @Lugubrious

@Double Capybara

Even though I'm going to do exactly what you're trying to avoid (mainly because of time constraints, don't have the luxury of developing beautiful, detailed stuff over several posts T-T) I will say that yes, you are permitted to do that.

AND EXPLAIN THAT! Explain it, explain it all!
Hmm, I'm guessing your issue isn't with Donald. (speaking of which, @Hael@Cyclone@Lugubrious[@AllYouUSdwellers] wth?! get rid of him already, you've had your fun, everyone's wet their pants)

Not to mention that what's going on technically isn't against Reathos's beliefs. They're causing along of death, but they're not doing anything like preventing souls from passing, using necromancy, or messing with True Names and stuff.

@Dawnscroll

...did you read my WiP Chronos sheet or something? What do you know of True Names? *suspicious glare*

Eh, this one has no special meaning, its just an example of the content with entries on flowers, maps, timelines, plane and etcetera.

@poog the pig
I just do them because I have fun with it, they are not essential to my posts, but I have fun using good old fireworks to make the stuff. Due to that I will have to decline your drawing offer

You want the opinion of me, a 'US dweller'?

Donald Trump is honestly my favorite contender for the Republican nomination. My first choice would have been Rand Paul, but of course he was too reasonable to attain any significant following among the Conservative base and dropped out early on in the primaries. Kasich similarly hasn't gained enough momentum to earn my serious consideration.

And what can you UK dwellers have on us? I'm still waiting for you lot to vote the BNP into power

[Frettzo]

@Cyclone, I love how the US has like 5 different candidates at any given time xD

@Kho

Keriss, Daughter of Trickery

Name:
Keriss

Alias:
That of Pain, One of Malice

Gender: Female

Domain (Portfolio):
Chance (Suffering)

Domain (Portfolio) Description:
Keriss has minor control over "luck" just as her father does and will use it to get out of... Less than pleasant situations. As far as suffering goes, she knows the exact amount it takes for something to experience just enough pain to the point in which they will go unconscious from shock, utilizing pressure points and her own willpower to make sure someone experiences as much pain as possible. Her abilities are near useless against gods unless she can overpower their will on her own.

Alignment:
Lawful Evil

Personality:
Keriss is a very sadistic female who only wishes pain upon the enemies of her father, the Trickster, He of the Shadowed Mind. She takes great pride in being the daughter of her father and feels that she owes him a life debt purely for being brought to life by him. On her free time, she enjoys causing pain against others and simply wishes to have a fun time with others. However, she is somewhat reckless and will charge into danger head first, not caring much about her own personal safety. Keriss has always been quick to anger and has always responded with action rather than reason. However, she is loyal to only her father and those who her father says for her to be loyal to.

Appearance:

One of Malice

Keriss takes on the form of a 6 foot tall humanoid-draconic being with large leather wings. She has two curled horns on the side of her head. Keriss bares sharp teeth along with green scales and yellow eyes. Despite her not-so-feminine looks, she still is a female. Commonly, she is seen wearing heavy armor.

Musical Theme:
A Warrior's Call

Description:
Keriss is the overzealous demi-god who wishes to smite others and gain glory in the name of her father. She cares not for what she faces, she will face a challenge head on. It is also to be noted again on how sadistic she is.

Concealment Level:
1

Detection Level:
1

Mardox wanted me to be a demi-god for him, I agreed and we planned.

@Cyclone

Trump isn't a conservative. He's only recently adopted a few conservative ideas in order to take advantage of people's anger, which has been his shtick from the beginning. Aside from being the epitome of rude and ostentatious, he's even gone so far as to say 'everything's negotiable' in regards to his position. No conservative with a grain of common sense thinks that he's a good option, but a lot of people would rather have an asshat president than a criminal or a socialist. If the US had to sacrifice pride, freedom, or the rule of law, pride ought to be first to go.

His goal isn't to represent conservative ideals: it's the aggrandization of Donald Trump. But there are worse choices out there.

My favorite for a long time was Ben Carson, but unfortunately he couldn't get enough momentum.

Anyway, where do non-US people get off making assumptions about American politics? We let you mind your own business, don't we?

@Cyclone, I love how the US has like 5 different candidates at any given time xD

@Frettzo

Not true in the long run. When the election process begins, there's a huge amount of different possible candidates, all representing the different factions and subsets of those factions, the point being to have a great width of ideologies represented. Over time the pool dwindles until there's only one for each faction, and then the real election is held. Right now we're in the middle of the process.

@Cyclone

I met Trump, once, when he did a meet and greet business seminar in NY several years back. My family was one of the first in line, and I was in High School at the time. He actually seemed rather impressed that all of my siblings, myself included, wanted to play an active part in my parents business. He took one look at me "You're the one the kids pick on, aintcha?"

At the time, I was actually being bullied horribly by my fellow classmates for a variety of different reasons, and I guessed it showed through my demeanor.

"That's cause you aren't hungry enough. They see you have something going on, but you ain't hungry enough. They want to keep you down. They have nothing. You want that to change, you need to to want it so bad you're starving. You go back, hold your head high, and punch them in the goddamn throat in anything you do in life. Because I know when someone can be hungry."

I was 15/16ish. I'm 23, going on 24, with my own business separate from my parents, a college degree under my belt, and a happy loving family to stand behind me. The people who bullied me in school are either dead, in jail, became teenage parents, or wound up with dead-end menial jobs. So to any of you, I will say this:

My vote for President of the United States of America is going to go to the man who pulled me to the side and made me hunger for success with a three minute conversation.

All I've seen is 4 million people protesting. That's about it though.

Don't worry bb

I'm here for you



But seriously I hope you'll turn out alright.

[Muttonhawk]

@Muttonhawk et al., about fire. Flints only produce sparks when struck against iron or a related substance. They do this because the hard flint shaves off tiny, tiny flecks of iron, and that iron (hot from being rubbed against the flint, and with an enormous surface area to volume ratio) oxidises violently in the air, making sparks. Flint-on-flint won't do it. You'll need the right kinds of rock.

If you really think fire is a good idea very soon, I can have it be invented and proliferated in my next post. Teknall is probably a few years behind everyone else at this point (he can catch up in my next post), so it works retroactively.

@BBeast

If you could give them fire, it would save some hassle. I had assumed they would have worked it out for themselves anyway, but if techs are strictly given by gods, they're kind of in the dark. The thing is, Toun doesn't really care about the hain as much as I do as a player, so they kind of have to rely on the charity of other gods to advance in technology ;_;

Also, yeah, US politics...Dudes, get rid of your electoral college, for god's sake. We have the internet nowadays, it shouldn't have to be that hard.

That's pretty cool. I've been asking some people I know if any of them have actually met Trump and gotten an idea of what he's like in person. I stand by what I said about him being rude and so forth, but don't let that convince you that I can't see the good parts of a person as well as the bad. Thank you for sharing, particularly in an internet environment that's so frothingly anti-Trump.

@Lugubrious

Of course he isn't a real conservative; he funded Hillary Clinton's last bid and openly said in the past that he favored the Democratic Party.

You have to realize that the only true 'conservatives' these days are the lunatics in the Tea Party that are so extremist by comparison to anybody else that they have no chance of winning the independent and/or moderate voters (read: the vast majority of America). What 'true conservative' did we even have to choose from? Jeb Bush's only reason to be taken seriously was that his father was a mediocre president and his brother was a contender for our worst president, so the celebrity status trickled down. Ben Carson had no political experience as well as those strange theories about the pyramids being built by Jospeph to store grain and other assorted bullshit.

These days the conservative establishment is simply the opposition party: aside from that failed attempt at the Keystone Pipeline, what positive change have the Republicans been able to get out for us in the past 10 years? The past 20? See, all they do is fight as hard as they can to reject anything that the Democrats try to push forward.

Contrast that to the Democratic party, which I liken to some abominable union of socialists (or outright Communists in some cases), male-hating feminists, Muslim fundamentalists, stoners who just want marijuana legalized, pro-immigration people who want us to invite in hordes of foreigners, and corporate interest groups that want crap like the TPP that will screw us all over.

I'm very liberal on most topics related to economics yet socially conservative, so I really loathe how only two parties manage to retain such a chokehold on the entire country. The total polarization means that I'm inevitably going to hate both candidates in every election; it's just a matter of which one I find less distasteful.

...and that's my two cents. No more political rants from me on the Internet for another year or two

@Kho

By 'politics' I'm talking about the election process, and by 'we' I mean individual people like me and Cyclone. For instance, we don't make who's trying to be Britain's Prime Minister our business, because we don't rightly understand the political situation in Britian and it's be hasty and stupid to make assumptions based on whatever people say the most.

Way to blow everything out of proportion of what's actually being discussed. For your information, I'm well aware of the country's involvement in others'. Wasn't what I was talking about, though. As the GM, aren't you supposed to be the least contentious person here, and attempt to stymie political jabs and arguments rather than incite them? I don't know what your need to assert yourself over Americans is, but it's not nice.
