Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

Thu-mmmok frowned, as Yiggzavath responded angrily, the Filthmonger had quite the temper, but it was admirable that he worked so hard, at least, in Thu-mmmok's eyes. Still, it was clear he wasn't in the mood for conversation, so Thu-mmmok withdrew the tendril of sand, just in time for Erisbili's outburst, followed by the god of death's tauntings, the two had never been on great terms, but there was no reason to bring up that dungeon again, and if that weren't enough, Kalla had arrived, the friendly air about her, and the way she glanced at him as if he were some sort of worry made the wonderful taste of ambrosia in his mouth turn sour. Thu-mmmok looked at his cup, then at the gods, and began to drink, slowly, but without pauses.

"Keep the drinks coming, if you wouldn't mind." The desert god requested to the angel nearest to him, the angel frowned, and then sighed, shuffling off to fulfill Thu-mmmok's request. He only had to get through this one meeting, then he'd be back in his deserts, creating, expanding, and with those who appreciated him. That is what he kept telling himself, as a sort of mantra. Why couldn't Kilgarrah hurry up? Surely Kalla was going to bring up Thu-mmmok's plans to expand his deserts, if Kilgarrah could simply get to the point, that might be avoided. Oh how he hoped it would be avoided.

It made no sense to keep fretting, Thu-mmmok decided, He was about to seek out conversation, before remembering his neutrality towards most gods, Yiggzavath clearly was not in the mood to talk, and Del Sombra was currently engaged in thought. No need to bother either of them, instead the desert god simply waited, staring at his empty cup, as if leering at it hard enough would cause it to produce ambrosia.

My family has the best Thanksgiving dinners. Always ends in a gladiatorial game show scenario. Winner takes home all the leftover mashed potatoes and stuffing.

@SepticGentleman

I love stuffing.

Yeah that's my entire comment, I hope you weren't expecting anything witty.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

Looks like Kalla showed up.

Thu-mmmok's gonna need more ambrosia to get through the meeting. In fact, I just realized this is basically a thanksgiving with an extended family, that is almost guaranteed to end in a fight.

We wanted big damn heroes. We got em.

@Tangletail

As a frequenter of Tvtropes (and a fan of firefly), I appreciate that reference.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

So for heroes, we've got a dragonblood-infused human fuck, a slaver turned ocean warrior, a sick-spreading mob boss lady, a shitbig lizard who wields the one and immutable Truth, a shadow-woman, Mother Nature's absolute destroyer of litterers, a garden variety vampire, the sergal lord regent of tree houses, aaaaand a camel.

Yeah, I can see that bunch going on a dungeon dive.

@SepticGentleman

Can't tell if its an amazing rough tough rowdy bunch, or a horrible amalgamation that will destroy everything.

My guess is a bit from both piles.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

@SepticGentleman I just wanted to say that because I was dropped out of a RP because I wasn't online for two days. ( I didn't rp on it... )

@Ashevelendar

Well that seems unnecessarily strict.

Were a bunch of softy goobers here, so no need to worry about that.

On a totally different note, I now consider Thu-mmmok to be Yiggzavath's "bro" that he doesn't actually want to talk to.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

Thu-mmmok noticed the gods and goddesses slowly trickling in, it'd only be a matter of time before she showed up, and she would almost definitely make it her duty to state loudly, and convincingly, that an endless desert was a horrid idea. Thu-mmmok needed a drink, ambrosia, not too much, he didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of the other gods, just a small glass, enough to steady his nerves. He waved to an angel, the angel quickly walked over to his side. "A glass of ambrosia, a small one though, I don't want to get too festive, yet." Thu-mmmok said with a charming smile, that betrayed the anxiety welling up within.

Thu-mmmok's eyes scanned the room, as he waited for his drink to be served, Dormammus seemed to be both hostile and friendly to the mad god at the same time, and of course the mad god showing up was far from expected. What caught the desert god's eye in particular though, was the building frustration coming from Yiggzavath, he could at least attempt to lighten his mood, couldn't he? Thu-mmmok's shoulder began to create sand, that wove itself over to the Filthmonger's location, and began to spoke, as if it had a mouth. "Yiggzavath, you seem more frustrated than usual, the waiting pains me too, but this horrid meeting will not last too much longer, perhaps we could discuss collaborations afterwards?" Thu-mmmok said in a calm tone, he knew that any cheerful excitement would have an incredible negative effect on Yiggzavath, and mentioning a collaboration would hopefully get his mind off of waiting. Yiggzavath did love to create.

The sand stayed by the Filthmonger, in case he went to reply, as Thu-mmmok waited for his drink, he smiled slightly at seeing Del Sombra, and Nahash's friendly nature, he was glad at least some could be cheerful today, and he was found of Del Sombra, she was one of the few who appreciated his deserts after all. At last, the glass arrived, Thu-mmmok knew he had to pace himself, but it was so very tantalizing, just a sip, at first. He thought to himself, as he took a small sip. The drink was as powerful as he remembered, and such an excellent taste. While he enjoyed the drink, he attempted to let his mind wander, perhaps that trial he placed had been won by now, perhaps he would have a champion to return to.

In the great deserts of K'num, there was a single creature, walking through the desert, followed by, as if they were guarding the creature, two large scorpions. This great creature was to lead the deserts all around the world to salvation, a great champion picked by the wisest Djinn in the lands, Al Sabbath. This creature was so great, it only went by one name: Louis, a fearsome camel, and the only creature to pass Al Sabbath's tests, set up by the desert god before the gods vanished, surely this camel was more than an average one. The camel stopped, and began to eat a small patch of grass, before making one of those weird camel noises, and walking in a totally different direction from before. Clearly, this creature was a genius.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

To the lovecraftian fans...

Ak'abs are a lovecraftian creature, described by a narrator "A creature who I can not recall, and must not."



likely some sort of demonic vampire moth thing that our favorite filth mongerer came up with with collab of the mad man.

@Tangletail

Oh man oh man, I sure do love me some Lovecraft. In fact i'm currently attempting to make some sort of horrible desert monster that isn't a giant sand worm, because I don't want to keep bugging Yiggzavath for collabs..hahaha HAHAHA AAAAHAHAH.

Kill me.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

I wonder if any heroes will Join the crew of Francis Drake to Pillage, rob, and burn Travel the high seas and spit at fate!

@dragonmancer

Camel pirate? sign me up.

The fact that I have accepted the joke character sheet as my legitimate hero is kind of sad.

Age of Rebuilding: Return of the Gods

<Snipped quote by Klomster>

Pft :P At least his hero isn't mostly mortal :P.

The camel is the most mortal of em all followed by Reeva.

But to be fair... in Sombra's defense, if a single woman can go through an island full of puzzles and monsters, and deal with a f*cking annoying lepricon (irish halfling) without loosing her damned mind, and THEN kill the Island's Master - a wizard riding a Wyvern -...

...you might not need god powers. You're basically a level 20+ DnD hero.

@Tangletail

She's probably min-maxed.
