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

[Vec]

P.S. Been researching a bit about core collapse supernovae, for reasons. Some of the figures are terrifying.
<Snipped quote by Wikipedia>
Something the mass of the Sun collapsing at a speed of 23% of the speed of light.
Gamma rays so powerful they literally destroy atomic nuclei- a literal disintegration ray.
Additionally, the majority of energy transfer, the mindbogglingly massive amounts of energy, are transported in a not-insignificant part by neutrinos, which are normally comparable to a butterfly's wing-flap against a mountain when it comes to interactions with matter.

Supernova are scary-big.

Been going through Jvan's old posts for reference purposes and wow

It's hard to tell where change in my writing style ends and character development begins, but she's changed quite a bit. Obviously she's spent like five months in plot stasis, but she used to have a lot more extravagant monologues and prettily worded thoughts.

We'll see if any of that comes back when she's well again (if that ever has a chance to happen).

It's a bit late for me to address this, but I completely disregarded the languages of Galbar so far. I don't really know if it was alright for Helvana to to speak with humans in the first post or at least for them to understand her. So, do I need to worry about this or do gods and demigods speak some sort of universal language?

@Slime

Gods and demigods possess a universal language, although not all mortals necessarily understand it. However, gods and probably demigods too seem to have the power to speak the languages of the people they come across.

Oh, good. I was worried I had done something hard to fix.

Lifprasil: Oh cool we have our own god language.

*Teaches it to Alefpria.*

I dunno if I ever said it in the OOC, but Alefprians do speak 'divinity', mostly because Lifprasil didn't have much to work with when he was given the Insidie.

poog the pig

I think a fairly large number of living species still speak it, really.

[Kho]

@Scarifar I'm pretty certain Alefprians are the only ones.

@Kho

Are they? Hmm, maybe I'm misunderstanding something then.

[BBeast]

@Scarifar@Kho I'll pull up a couple of relevant posts:

Back in page 8, Ilunabar sowed the seeds of language diversification. Sculptors were notably immune, maintaining the god-tongue and acting as universal translators. Angels, Pronobii and to an extent Lifprasilians, with their small localised populations and close connection with their gods, were also largely exempt, although language diversification could still occur if conditions changed.

Here Termite explores some of the mortal languages. If I remember correctly, Termite's head canon is that the Angels speak Yiddish or some variant thereof, although in light of my previous statement the angels probably all still have a language close to the god-tongue.

The Lifprasilians of Alefpria, the Angels, the Sculptors, and the Quara Korala would all speak the god-tongue or some language fairly close to it.

I was under the impression that elementals spoke the god language too.

@Muttonhawk

Oh, yeah, them too.

[Cyclone]

@Muttonhawk

They speak bastardized dialects of it, with each major element having its own variant. Part of shamanism is learning how to understand what the elementals are saying, so Vetruvian shamans can also speak the divine language.

[BBeast]

Some other individuals can also speak the divine language, depending how attuned they are to divinity, although they tend to be the exception rather than the rule. Bard Fiberslayer, a hain chieftain, is one of them.

[Antarctic Termite]

The Pronobii spoke and wrote (in addition to their 'normal' tongue) a holy language derived from the glyphs in which a soul's true name is written, as I recall. That's making a comeback after Osveril gets born.

[Vec]

IM DONE.

All this talk of languages and I'm just like... playing EU4. God I have not been in the mood of writing lately ;-;

@Lauder

Well got in one. We don't talk kindly to those who aren't in a good writing mood.

Considering the distance Hel and Co traveled I guess the local language is different to that of Lloyd and Gwyn... Need to think on how to work on that.
