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

[lif]

@poog the pig He PMed me and I told him that he should submit a CS, have yet to hear back from him, so I don't know what help is needed.

@Kho

Strange. I'll look into it. Sorry about that!

Edit: I was just misreading messages. So sorry.

[Kho]

I've decided not to join this Rp after all. It's just a bit to much for me, and I feel it'd just be a few weeks of not fitting in well, and then leaving. So, decided to cut out the few weeks of not fitting in well, and go straight to the leaving. if anyone wants the concept I drew up, then they can have it. It seemed to have sparked some interest.

@KabenSaal

It's your decision, you know yourself. I would personally love for you to join, we're all very approachable and will answer all questions you have - even if that means literally telling you everything that has happened in the IC thus far (though you can just read the very helpful 'summaries' at the top/bottom of each post for that).
If you've made up your mind, then that's fine. Thank you for being honest.

All that talk of politics, and not one mention of the best presidential candidate.
Vermin Supreme.

[Kho]

@The Irish Tree Wow. Why hasn't this guy won?!!?!?

[lif]

I feel like making a hero of just sheer noise for the sole purpose of this reference.

@Dawnscroll

I'm liking it! Peeps should just add lil posts like this for background lore and the like every once and a while as well.

[Scarifar]

Hmm... what to do now...

[lif]

So, I had an idea for a metal, or an ore unique to Galbar, or Arcon, that remains an impenetrable solid when idle, but when magically charged it becomes something similar to cloth, with the color and texture of say, gold? I just thought it was a cool idea for a magus' armor, or a door of sorts.

This could be something you could make if you're looking for something to do @Scarifar

That might be interesting. I'll see what I can come up with.

@Scarifar

Keep in mind that whatever it is you make won't be an element, as iron or copper or gold or carbon or oxygen are.
Teknall wrote in a few special elements to the Codex of Creation (namely Adamantine (dark coloured metal, a little denser than steel, stronger than any other metallic element in most if not all metrics), Mithral (silver-like metal, with the strength of steel yet density of aluminium. Some magical affinity), and Orichalcum (gold-copper-silver coloured metal. Physically mundane, but has notable magical affinity)). A look at the periodic table tells me that, if I insert an extra group in the transition metals (the safest place to start placing new elements), I can fit 3 elements. So no room for as-yet unnamed additions. And the Periodic Table isn't exactly something that can be rewritten after creation.

That said, you can still make it as some magic-infused compound or alloy or something, or even a pseudo-element (although then things would get weird. Like, Gap weird).

@BBeast

So these technicalities will take...how many might points to make go away, exactly?

@Muttonhawk

Depends. If you want to make a bona fide element, one which would show up on the periodic table, which is made from a single type of atom of neutrons, protons and electrons, that would require rewriting the Laws of Physics, while carefully avoiding messing up the existing elements, a task of nigh impossible difficulty. I'd bet even Logos would struggle with such a task.

If you are content with anything other than a pure atomic element, then there would be no trouble at all.

@BBeast

Nigh impossible? So you're saying it could be done?

More seriously, unless subatomic physics are going to be a fulcrum for this RP's storytelling, I do not see the issue with making an element and just saying "magic did it". There's no use in sweating the small stuff if a new material gets to be made.

Edit: I'll remind that this wasn't my idea, so it could go either way.

Keriss

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

I would just like to see everyone's new thoughts on this character ^^

Sounds really cool, but who's her dad? She sounds like she could beat Lifprasil around the block a few times.

Bonus: I want to fight it

[BBeast]

@Lauder She seems a very interesting character. A good idea.

@poog the pig

Her father is Mardox's character Vakarlon

I like the idea that there are things even gods need to be wary of, that even they are constrained by what they have put down in the Codex. This is why Zephyrion will soon feel the consequences of altering the Codex when he created his elementals.
And I think we could easily go about creating new materials be combining existing elements. I would definitely like to see what kinds of alloys can be produced from these three new elements.
