The silence isn't just for the gods not interacting with the human world, its for us not being able to post in IC. When will the silence end!?

@dragonmancer
Still :/ we can dance around the missing gods at least, and just get the IC moving?

It's been half a month since the OOC went up.

Well, it seem liked that lot had other things to do than to try and follow Leon to the police station. So be it… fools will always be fools it seems… and while the other trainers enjoyed a nice night out by the oasis. Leon enjoyed a nice night camping out in the police station as a guest. Quite literally a guest. Instead of setting him up in a cell, they had set up a cot in one of the empty offices.

The solice even gave him a chance to call his family in the morning.

“Hey mom,” Leon hummed as the other end was finally picked up. He lifted one of his books, and began to read over something pretty dry. Electronic circuits and computer loic. Grand and boring it was as it was all just concept. But hey… interesting doesn’t get you into a university, you do interesting in the university.

“Leon! You’re alright!?”

“Well everythings attached, and my partner got really roughed up. But yes… so far everything is somewhere along that definition. I guess a bit of mental scaring here and there after witnessing a dead body and a man on fire.”

“A dead body? And you’re saying that calmly?”
“….” Leon really didn’t have much of a response.
“Yeah, an officer’s child alright. Let me guess, you’re just not thinking about it?”

“S-something like that…” Leon hissed… really wishing he could forget about that.

“Right. Anyways, you said partner right? I’m assuming that you mean a pokemon?”

“Y-yeah! A treecko.”

There was a silence for a moment… and then a roar of laughter.

“Am… I missing something?”

“No no! It’s just it’s just like you! The quiet loner.”

“I’m not a loner.”

“Pft please! How many other friends have you made?”

“… point taken.”

Agreed. I loved what it promised. But the final product did not have anything to keep me invested. I still play starbound and Minecraft because even if they use colleting and consuming, it does not get in the way, but it's implemented well. Unlike the ba-FUCKING-jillian meters that need to be recharged. Plus there's BUILDING. Something the game sorely lacked.

Personally, I would have been livid in a matter of an hour. Actually, I was when I played it on my friends PC. O was as bored with it as I was with "Shadow of Mordor"
@SepticGentleman

I'm so glad I quickly thought against buying the game when the interviews got real suspicious.

The silence ends when you finally get to the center of the universe in no man's sky.
Something tells me we won't see an IC post till next month >.o
A good example of why many gods like Kilgarrah do not start populating planets willy nilly with their creations.

Enter Kilgarrah.

"A planet of a dragons, a realm where my creatures can roam free!"

Dragons die out due to cannibilization of having no other food source, or water since kilgarrah can only contribute heat to the planet.

"Shit."

@HueMan

His domain could be similar to how Sombra's works then. Her domains work by association. Secrets bring in Conspiracy, with Conspiracy comes violence and crime. She seems like an evil god, even with her innate delight of sadism (as much as she tries to hide it), but she's not. She's needed for proper civilization.

He could be the God of Abstraction. Abstraction is what makes sentient creatures more unique than feral beasts. They are able to conceptualize tools with abstract thought, and under stand emotions like love. Abstraction also helps us understand math, which is primarily symbols and figures, as well as science as it needs to be broken down before an effective law comes. But like Alice and Wonderland mentioned, everyone is a little mad.

Madness will be part of his domain, though it'll probably be a lesser field similar to Sombra's Crime and Violence. But like her still, he is needed for civilization to work. One is a motive to drive towards it, the other is the ability to draft a contract to create such.

Alright before I start heavy-lifting with the CS, I'd like to see if this is ok. How would you all feel about a God of Infinity and Impossibility joining you?

The God would be sort of considered an "outsider" even among other Gods and be rarely worshiped by mortals. As a matter of fact he isn't even that well known. He would go by the title of "The Outsider, The Stranger, Lord of Oblivion". His domains and powers would include things regarding impossibility and infinity (duh) such as the infinite space, a bottomless pit, the largest or the smallest number in existence, etc.
His primary attribute would be madness and fear; madness to represent the insurmountably ridiculous and impossible existence (such as an infinitely large number), fear since any mortal's most primal emotion to the unknown starts with fear. If a man falls into the ocean and sees an infinite black pit of dark waters beneath him, and he feels fear, this God would be the one who's responsible for such and be "with" him.
On the other hand, he is unknowingly somewhat worshiped by intellectuals such as scientists since the exploration of the unknown sheds light on the real nature of what seems impossible. However, he enjoys presenting an infinite number of challenges to be solved to those who dare challenge him in this manner. And eventually, this produces mortals who are mad on seeking out the true nature of this God - also known as knowledge beyond the possible (mad scientists/wizards anyone?).


Fear is already taken. And I think infinite space will be a rough domain to manage concidering we are gods of a single planet, with other planets awaiting gods.

Though the Outsider bit would put him on a good standing with Del Sombra.

Her name roughly translates and implies "Of Unknown Origin" and she's the Goddess of the Unknown and Secrets.

I do like Madness though. I'm kinda curious to see where this one goes. Will he have the personality of Sheogorath? Discord from my little pony? Or will he be a perfectly sane and down to earth guy that hates his job.

*Waits for the afore mentioned IC post this weekend :3*

<Snipped quote by Lexicon>

Nahargu'ul will come back to find that pollution has begun spreading out amongst the waters due to the mainland's mechanical advances (and maybe sewage runoffs, if they have sewers). He'll be rightly pissed about that.

Meanwhile, Yig's just like, "Shit, I barely gotta do anything, these fuckers are making themselves sick."
