The Council of Night

@Havoccultist
I can imagine how hard it is to provide a back story for someone like Nyarlathotep, so I’m accepting what you came up with, as well as the rest of the sheet. Please move them over to the characters tab. Also, since you mentioned the Necronomicon, its last known owner was Dracula.

@Martian

Cool. And I'll certainly keep that in mind, though Nyarlathotep has no real desire for it. It does more harm being passed from person to person anyway.

What Are You Listening To?

The Council of Night

@Martian
Here's the final, sorta, sheet. There isn't much since I'm on three hours of sleep, battling allergies, and currently blanking on a history for a being that is more a force of nature than anything else.

The Council of Night

An example of what I mean: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyarlathotep

Also, while it says Azathoth is his father, there's a lot of debate about whether or not the Outer God family tree Lovecraft created was serious or not. Just like there's a lot of debate over who's the actual ruler of creation, Azathoth or Yog, or if they co-rule, or if the former is just an aspect of the latter or the latter is just another part of the former's dream, etc.

Really it just comes down to what you like in your canon more.

@Havoccultist
Nyarlathotep is looking good, as I have no problems what you've written already. I'm curious to see how you'll handle their backstory as I'm not super familiar with a lot of Lovecraft.

@WhiteAngel25
Also liking what I'm seeing. I'm glad that you're making the Kitsune truly monstrous.

@Sailorsadie @Qia
I like the pictures you guys chose. Also looking forward to see your powers and backstory.

And for any random lurkers reading this, we are still accepting. There's a ton of types of monsters that haven't been picked yet so if you have the inkling of being a horror movie monster engaged in politics, this is probably the right RP for you.

@Martian

It won't be easy given how vague and ambiguous Lovecraft is. Hell, outside of two stories and a name drop here or there we know very little about Nyarlathotep's history, if it can even be said to have that given what it is.

The Council of Night

I, too, have a WIP.

I still need to come up with a backstory, but I'm posting what I've got thus far for now to see if there are any issues that need to be sorted out before I get too far into that.

The Council of Night

I'll get a sheet up eventually. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow or during the upcoming week depending on how I'm feeling.

Star Wars - Invasion [Multiverse Spaceship RP]

Might be interested in joining another iteration of this. I know the last one just kind of petered out, but it's worth giving it another try.

I just have no idea what kind of ship to run.

The Council of Night

@Havoccultist
I am iffy about having Satan himself as a member of the Council of Night. The power scaling is just way off. But if you wished to play a different demon, who could be an emissary for Satan, that might work better. Or you could stay with your first choice. You don't need to make up your mind this second as it will be a few days before I post the OOC thread.

@Martian

True, true. I'll give it some time to percolate.

The Council of Night

@Martian
While I'm still keen on playing Nyarlathotep, I have just realized that a figure such as Lucifer/Satan or Samael might have more of a reason to be on the council in the first place. That being human souls. Now I'm not sure what they'd do with them, maybe they eat them, maybe they use them as building material, or maybe they corrupt them to make more demons or just to spite whatever celestial powers that be, but nevertheless the devil would have a stronger motivation to make sure the council remains as it was before Dracula disappeared.

Plus he could have history with the old vampire given some interpretations of where Dracula got his powers from. Or, barring that, common ground in their hatred of God (who I imagine wouldn't be omnipotent in this and more just a powerful deity). I know there are issues with this power scaling wise and such, and we only get one character so I'd need to decide which idea to pursue more, but I just thought I'd mention it since Nyarlathotep's only real motivation is to start shit and cause chaos.
