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

[LokiLeo789]

@LokiLeo789 Actually demons are now under Vestec I think... Which is a bit of a problem no? Recent events considered and all that.

@Double Capybara

@Double Capybara@LokiLeo789 Actually, demons were always under Vestec, considering they were created inside his Realm of Madness when he dropped Mammon in it :/

@Vec

Dang Vestec, always thinking of stuff before I do and hording them. Hate Chaotic beings. Well, nothing hurts in actually asking him, right. Or I could use Astarte again, they still have a deal pending.

Edit: I could also invest I Morality as a Portfolio and make my own. Maybe plain Evil would be better. Sounds more like an all encompassing Portfolio though.

Alrighto. I think my questions have been answered, thanks minna-san.

One thing I notice in these new forms of Magic is that they are usually derivative from other primal energies.

Amartia's Alchemy seems to be just Logos's power in a stone. And the Shamanism I have been building up is basically just humans dreams mixing with animal dreams.

Though once I get into song magic (by turn 56 at this rate) I will need to go for the ritualistic and occultic forces, as there is no base in Dreams alone that justify the creation of such thing.

Elementalist magic (not to be confused with elementals) and Destruction magic is Astartian in nature right?

@Double Capybara

The proper term will be; 'Manifest'. Rolls off the tongue better. Khoshep will be remained sickle blade.

Look at you all, having fun there with your demons and your magic mambo jumbo.

Without me. T_T

@Scarifar

What! Hey, I have an idea. What if Nicel gave Sin a few angels to work with, out of the kindness of her heart? I think we can all agree thats a good idea. Got a collab ready and everything. Maybe 1000 angels would be sufficient.

So general question, what happens when Magic is Sciencified?

Imagine a staff that shoots lighting. Now imagine a gun that shoots electricity arcs.

Imagine a fireball. Now imagine a rocket launcher that launches incendiary rockets.

In the case of Astartian Magic, you could just look at genetic engineering, exo-skeleton suits or plain old cybernetics

Are we looking at an eventual obsolete-ification(???) of magic here? Because if so, that would be an awesome challenge for Astarte.

@Frettzo

Could always turn to alchemy. It also depends on the culture of the people. What if they hold magic in high regard? What if the pros of the Magic outway the Pros of weapons? While we shouldn't look to FMA for inspiration and such, look at how Alchemy far outway the uses of firearms and even mortars. Even tanks were no match for Alchemy. If Astarte plays here cards right, makes the right friends, innovate magic, then it will never grow obsolete.

[Vec]

@Frettzo Hey, look at modern religion. It accepts science and stuff as something that can deal with the small and trivial things, like rocket launchers and railguns. However, when you deal with the big stuff, the creation of a universe anr/or multiverse, then what?

mmmmmaaaaagic C;

[Antarctic Termite]

Khoshep will be remained sickle blade.

@LokiLeo789

Did you mean khopesh? The khopesh is the Egyptian sword design you mentioned Xerxians using glass versions of.

A Khoshep, on the other hand, is when Kho becomes a shepherd and has trouble with troughs.

@Frettzo

I think we'd be looking at it from a very Earth-y perspective to consider science and magic like this. Far-future technology on Galbar wouldn't compete with magic. Instead they'd integrate.

Imagine a rocket launcher inscribed with elemental fire runes launching incendiary rockets that erupt into flaming demons on hit.

Imagine a Tesla gun in the hands of a lightning mage who can control its electricity so perfectly that he can hack computers from 500 metres away with a thunderbolt.

Imagine- Biotech space marines who augment their incredible physical and mental capabilities with the power to distort fate to their will so that nothing is impossible to them.

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

Currently it only has "Belfadingalong", "Lazarus Yo", and "Veshit" in the dropdown bars, and selecting them only prints "cat fuck" to the console. Progress!

Imagine Zephyrion becoming addicted to Instagram and Ommok trying to keep a friendly Snapchat streak going on with Slag even after their little fallout...

on another note, this is the first time I've ever seen my friend list filled with onlines

Lifprasil's ArkSynth Cosmic Knights look to do that. All of that.

At once.

Alefprian academics, magic, biological technology, is all gonna come on really strong compared to what we're seeing right now.

Sigh... Now I have to actually write things for my creations.

I'll wait and see if this project actually falls through. Actually I won't, how do I access it?

And Sin will either become the god of Evil or Paradoxes. We all got dreams.

He'll be dead, more likely than not.

Imagine Ilunabar controlling the whole media, from newschannel to the fibeswood movie industry.

Imagine Ilunabar creating a sick ass counterculture that takes over the universities and becomes just culture

Imagine a bunch of arconian wing people denouncing these two points as some sort of collectivist interdimensionalist intrigue without even knowing that all their dank bebe the orc memes and eccentric conservative personalities chippering on social media are also all under Ilunabar.

All this, of course, leading to Ilunabar's great, universe shattering objective: Making waifus real.
