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

@KhoI mean, when you reach the deity level of power, there's no point in lying. Thus, an oath from such a being is that much more believable, since if they planned to break the oath, they needn't have made it in the first place. They could just bash your head in and be done with it.

@Vec

You say that, but what happens where two gods of more or less equal power swear by Amul? It's not like they could exactly force anything out of the other without potentially procuring serious damage, and so lying may be better.
And it's always better to enter deals with creatures, even if they're weaker than you, for the sake of keeping up a good public image - otherwise, the other gods might get annoyed and decide to give you what's for. The equivalent of CKII's tyranny or EUIV's aggressive expansion >.> so lying there may be good for the sake of getting what you want by more cunning means while preserving a good image

'Oh! Oh! That's how you're gonna play it huh? Can't take me out one-on-one so you're cheatin'? Come at me then! I can still take you down! 'tis but a flesh wound!'

In some Kho post somewhere

*Backs away very slowly*
I might or might not have totally, in a trashy, corny, undignified sort of way, completely copied elements of the wording of that sentence from a well-known, perhaps very famous, scene in a perhaps very famous movie by a perhaps very famous group; and I, furthermore, may or may not have been inspired by - some may callously say 'copied' - elements of the spirit of the scene in the wider context of that which this perhaps not exactly copied wording is situated within.

Here, away from the sight of our new overlords, read this heresy that they have expunged from the history books, and all the theological discourses and treatises we read today in our great Galbarian seminaries

You mention Amul'Sharar, I noticed that this concept of 'swearing by Amul'Sharar' has come up a few times. Ull'Yang got angry at Luna for suggesting it, and Heartworm first had Vestec swear by him and then swore to Vakarlon by him. (Perhaps there will be others as I continue studying reading these posts). I wonder if Amul would actually enforce these if someone were to attempt to break them.

But I'm not sure whether I have any authority regarding what Amul and Fate do anymore >.>

I just realised that Amartia might have actually destroyed the Cube during his escape... the wording is vague, but we'll see.

Also, pg16 of the summary is now complete!

@Rtron Ahh, makes sense. Can you link me to their creation post?

In desperation, they prayed to Toun, to Ilunabar, to Vulamera, to Teknall, to Belruarc, to Astarte and to Mammon for salvation. Several particularly desperate souls even dared to beseech Vestec for divine aid, for they knew that nothing short of that could save them.

Some BBeastian Post

I find it very interesting that they call on Belruarc also. How do the Rovaick know of and worship Belruarc? Does it have to do with Sularn's Vow?

I would like this post. But the smiley I need is something closer to...

PREGNANT VESTEC. You just TRUMPed everything Jvan could ever hope to freak out and disgust us with.

The sound of an inward breath preceded Toun's venom returning. Though, this time, it was soundly directed at the god of laughing chaos. "You. I have nothing to prove to you." He narrowed his eye. "Ebb, brother."

Some Mutton Post

I think this establishes strong foundations for the word 'ebb' to become a Divinus swear word. I see you Vec, I ebbing see you, you ebber. You better not ebb off now you're here. Where have you ebbing been, huh? [example of usage, purely. Not because I want to swear at Vec or anything...]

Astartian Urges
In Divinusian psychoanalysis, Astartian urges (or, less commonly, the Astartian urge) is a being's desire, which the mind may or may not keep in the unconscious via dynamic repression depending on the individual in question, to smother anything that is adorable.
