Message: <blockquote data-quote="Joey2" data-source="post: 6771349" data-attributes="member: 6805846">Hey, all. I'm the guy playing this 'frosty' character in ig's game. Just (got permission to) read this thread and to address some points:See, frosty thinks he already is a god. The problem is too few beside him realize or acknowledge his deity, so he wants the lowdown on how to be a better god. The anger is more at the people not accepting the truth of his godhood than frustration at taking an impossible task.While there are some positives to starting out with the Silver Flame as the tradesman (the god being literally present, firebody kinship, a high priestess who readily takes frosty in and likes him), his 'devotion' is only by coincidence of a former party member having a connection in the Cathedral of Flamekeep. If her associate had instead been part of the council in Passage, Aundair, frosty might just well be under the tutelage of a priest of Onatar. In fact, after his caretaker/teacher and the current Keeper die, he will likely go on to study under any other gods, though he hasn't said as much to anyone. Our previous adventure ended with us killing the Lord of Blades as he was trying to push himself as a new god through war on all 'fleshbags'. While frosty wasn't completely against the idea and joined the fight against for more personal reasons, he did get the message: don't go around boasting your divinity, it makes the insecure mortals mad. Since he joined the Church (that is, hours after the war) his outbursts of "F-- you I'm a god" have trailed off, but all have heard him talk about himself as such. The first time he met the Keeper she thanked him for his service to the Church, he thanked her for aiding his further ascension.All of the time in the Church is hopefully leading up to a point where frosty can talk to the Flame itself in the inner Chamber to offer the apprenticeship, and that won't happen if he is still acting more like himself, as far as he can figure. And with a lifespan of 'yes' he can spend some decades serving in Flamekeep. So the outbursts stay dormant til he goes on quests. Any valuables get paid back to the Church (what does he care for money, the church pays whatever upkeep). Acolytic study under his teacher is taken seriously. But only by coincidence, and with no plans to stay for his immortal lifetime.</blockquote>
