Why are we all Demigods? We're the first beings in existence. If that's not 'Elder' I don't know what is.

One character many Role-players

Athi! I've missed you!

I'm going AFK starting thursday until sunday night, but with 3 of us, I think we could start trying to revive this, yeah?

This should be really fun. I look forward to being a revolutionary.

I'm fine as it is. Belaro is just sitting in his boat, jamming to his groupies. I'm going to be Offline starting thursday.

Also:

So I get we started with 16 AP. I have spent all but 4. When the rollover happens, are the leftover points erased? Are we given 16 more AP?

ACT I, SCENE I

Belaro:

The flash of light was first white, and then mellowed into a sombre black. Yet there were lights in the darkness. After some time, a new color emerged- a reddish gold. The golden hue formed itself into beauty, long limbed, and youthful, with clear eyes and a long curled mane of golden red hair. Belaro smiled, and began to whistle.
As he whistled, a lyre appeared in his hands, and with preternatural skill that was beyond anything any other being would ever approach, played. The music was carefree and happy, a tune so inspiring that it shaped the universe around the fey God. A boat formed around the God, crafted of undying reeds. It drifted on the will of it's master, and could become as large and as small as it needed to be, taking any form at all. The boat could move between any world that existed, traveling on mysterious currents that none but the most attentive of Gods could see. Belaro stopped his music for a while, and watched out from his boat the other gods craft and forge and whisper worlds and beings into concept.
The Wandering Prince looked at this, and then looked back at the lyre in his hands. Should he leave his comfort and help toil to shape the planes?
Thinking on it, the god returned to playing his music, and started to sing in a clear voice. As he sang, the boat expanded in size and several beings came to sit in the bottom of the boat, naked and wondering. It was a small huddle of two legged and and two armed and one headed creatures, all with hair at the top of their heads. Belaro stopped singing, and looked down at the creatures.
"I call that piece, 'Humans'. Do you like it? I named it after you."
The humans nodded, awestruck at their God.
"Good. I will continue to sing for you. Listen and learn, so you can become what you are meant to become."

And so Belaro sang, and he sung of what it meant to live, and to be mortal, and to think. And the humans began to understand, and they started to talk earnestly amongst themselves, as they dwelt in the safety of the boat.

Player Name: SypherKhode822

Domains (Portfolios): Culture [Storytelling] Discovery [Traveling]

Alignment: Neutral Good. He's a fan of creating amazing stories, which typically involves tragedy, but in the end he wants people to flourish and return home to tell the stories.

Symbol(s): Migratory birds, a lit lantern, musical instruments, walking sticks, roads, crossroads, specific constellations used in navigation, a clear sky, a calm ocean, a distant peak, fools gold.


Appearance:
Belaro is a shapeshifter, and will appear in any physical form he likes. When he manifests as a sentient race, he prefers to be a young male of an athletic build. Many times he will appear with long red hair. He will typically have a musical instrument or walking stick with him. In all of his manifestations as a sentient race, he will be wearing fools gold jewelry. No matter what gender, species, or roll Belaro will manifest as, he will almost always be horribly attractive.


Personality

Belaro is a convivial god, quick to laughter and slow to anger. He loves acts of bravery, and rewards those who are daring. Belaro is the patron of artists, be they royal painters or illiterate nomadic storytellers around a campfire. He delights in creating beautiful things, from the details of a blooming meadow flower to the soaring peaks of mountain ranges. While he enjoys a secret for a some time, he prefers it when mysteries are ultimately uncovered. He loves travelers, and will often intercede to make sure that they arrive at their destination properly. This does not mean he is always benevolent. If his ire is risen, he will make someones life a living hell. Belaro will frequently take mortal lovers, and vainly prides himself on his sexual prowess.

Dogma:
Belaro is rarely a god worshiped by kings and queens dwelling contently behind sturdy walls. His followers are those who live with a certain edge of uncertainty, of chance. Wanderers will wear a necklace of fools gold to gain his protection. Innkeepers keep shrines in his honor in corners of the inn. The sacred contract between hosts and guests are kept in his name. Artists from all walks of life and all forms dedicate public displays of their art to him. Sailors wear earrings of pyrite, and sea captains have figurines of their loved ones made in fools gold, so they are kept in the mind of the god. When someone makes a great discovery, they are said to be 'Blessed by Belaro'. It is popular to curse in his name, because he's the most likely to laugh it off. Although if one angers Belaro, they will rarely dare leave eye shot of their home, lest they never find their way back to it for ten years. Nomadic birds are said to be auguries of Belaro's intention, and are frequently studied by holy people for insight into the god's mood.

Oh good, I was feeling bad about not having posted anything in the IC till now.

mmh, I'll my CS over here, posted, and then I'll poke around at the stuff we have. Then I'll do some shit. I swear.

Lords of Creation: Children of the Flash

I already have some ideas for creating flocks of migratory birds, plants and animals that would be used for making instruments, and just useful things in general. I mean, you gotta start with the normal before things get abnormal.

TBH,

I'm okay with starting now or tomorrow. The way this forum works, you gotta strike while the iron is hot, ya know? And once we kick it off, we can put in the OOC title Actively Recruiting, so we can rope in more rivals players to join us.
