Ever Dream Deity Roleplay(Always Open)

[Tonguez]

At his side the silent Alyssa gasps as Albedo disintegrates, her eyes blaze with grey light and her face turns pale. After a moment her breathing returns to normal and with a melancholy look upon her face she says "It is done. My brother has undergone transposition.
There are others who need my aid" she asks Traume to give he leave and he agrees, allowing her to disappear relocating herself in the Prime


Jemal chuckles as Albedo disintegrates "Back.. you mean that he has died and shall return.. Like Failure, Like the Unded.. Rebirth.."
He grins and glances to Traume "Father, I believe I know how we can handle our problem with power being used by Souless creatures." and then turns back to SHara "We may need YOUR help for this, Lady of Life. As for the matter of a Council, I think it is a truly magnificent idea. We as Gods should exist to guide these mortals so we can all better understand ourselves and the universe."

"Now what do the rest of you say to this Council?"

You have a solution to the Soulless in the Worlds of Life? " Traume considers "learnt from the rebirth of Alyssa brother? Jemal you know that I do not approve of your undead, it binds the spirits to their flesh and denies them their final rest. I see Rebirth as no different, but it is beyond my hands, although perhaps not beyond your ability to intercede.

I too endorse this council and as its first act I call upon the Council to give to Jemal the power to intercede in the matter of Rebirth - provided " and he underscored that condition with the weight of millenia " - provided that he brings solution to the dilemma of the Soulless"

Meanwhile a Watcher of the Fourth Company takes leave of the Nightwing and enters in to Tocho's new realm manifesting as a comet which blazes across that realms sky..."

I agree the introduction of the alignment planes was not well thought out (but we can work that by linking them to the Forges - ie Othar multiplied the number of forges and each generates an energy feild which warps the zone around it (creating a small dimensional pocket).

As to timetravel I've got no problem with it as long as Othar (and the rest of us) accept that time travel creates Paradox and that Paradox can be manipulaed by the other gods. So for instance we can assume that it was huge degrees of Paradox hat allowed Othar to travel back in the first place (of course the paradox created by his time travel resulted in him being late). It may also mean that Othar is not as powerful 'now' as he will be at 'the end of time' and because of that loss of power further 'long range' time travel is not possible without help from the other gods.

Also if things change as a a result of time travel sending things back to stop events ocuring then more paradox is generated for the gods to use to create even stranger results than first expected - we could get into a paradox war (or some good storytelling)

OOC: You make good points, and the army thing didn't work because I missed that crucial post of yours as I was hurrying to catch up with what was going on, I'm still not totally caught up. Albedo may not have interacted much with the mortals, but he was making a massive impact on the world, killing the angels and causing huge storms. They noticed. They didn't like that Albedo and his army of assasins were depriving them of the influence that brought about Steel, boom powder, etc. Life is hard enough on a world populated by magic users and titans like Albedo, factor in the empires rising and falling, the competetive influence of Tocho (a constant struggle for survival isn't fun), and you can understand how people might get upset when somebody deprives them of the means to develop better ways to defend themselves. Denying inspiration, which includes art, music, weapons, architecture, etc, may be the one thing that could unite such a large force of rival peoples against something. And as to Alexandra, she's a hero figure in her own right, and I described her appearance as breath-taking (or words to that effect) and I described what happened in Albedo's mind when he saw and heard her.

IC: "Settling our disputes in council does seem a... vast improvement... over the status-quo. I will send an avatar to the council whenever it assembles. And I will support this appointment to my... ally... Jemal."

 

[periculum]

OOC: Tocho's plane isnt supposed to be anything, it's neither representing a force of nature like most other planes do, but rather Tocho's own personall representation of heaven, a place he can call home since it seems inevitable that we are about to banish ourselves, to one degree or another, from the prime material plane.
I can only think of two planes you left out Jemal. Shara's plane of light and positive energy, and I'm pretty sure Algennis had a plane, but he hasnt posted in forever. I guess he got lost in his own maze.
I could accept the elemental planes as demi-forge-planes, small in stature and linked to one another, they could be great places of creation but too small to support vibrant ecosystems. Since their linked, they could just form various "rooms" in Xavax's magical workshop.
A god of time is an excellent concept, however i agree traveling backwards would require an incredible amount of exhertion, as he would have to fight against the course of the stream (time only flows in one direction). Thus, right now after such a long trip from the end of the universe, he's going to need time to rest, and trips to the past will be limited. I also like the idea that fighting against the current of time (going backwards) would create ripples in the stream (paradoxes) that could be used by other deities. However, manipulating the flow of the river that is time wouldnt require any more effort on his part than tocho creating a new species of bird or jemal raising hundreds of fallen soldiers from a field of battle. Thus he can speed up and slow down time (in general or restricted to a certain location/creature) at will. That in itself is an immensly powerful ability.

IC: With a frustrated roar Tocho slams a nearby pillar, obliterating the mighty structure in a cloud of dust a debree. "This talk of divine counsil is pointless. Can you not see that we are IN divine counsil. So can we stop bringing the meeting to order and start making use of it. If anyone was against the idea of counsil, they wouldnt be here. Now I support Traumes proposal at endorsing Jemals power over rebirth."

Meanwhile Tocho vents his frustration by wrestling with a half dozen Mountain giants upon his newly formed plane.

 

[Jemal]

Jemal chuckles at Tocho's statement.
"A Well spoken point. I believe Albedo and Moss are the only ones who have not supported the 'formalization', if you will, of a permanent divine council. As for the soulles problem, I believe we should introduce a system for the souls to return to life.. not as Undead, but as NEW beings. "
*Insert long description of Ressurection/Reincarnation/Karma, etc here*


OOC: And I'll seed the point on Time, I like both your ideas.

I'm gonna be offline now for a while, might be a day might be a week.. will post again asap though.

OOC: You people are messing with my colmology only prime, astral, magic, and shadow are "planes" the others just determine the characteristics of planes made inside of them.

ie: Tocho's plane is in the Good section and far from the material plane because it is major(far from prime) and posative dominate(in the good section).
The overlaps are just examples any number of Planar sections, for lack of a better word, overlap somewhere other than the material plane

And this, It may also mean that Othar is not as powerful 'now' as he will be at 'the end of time' and because of that loss of power further 'long range' time travel is not possible without help from the other gods. is true i can make minor jumps w/out help but only a few minutes or so. The farther the game progresses the farther i can shift.

IC: "I to support the reincarnation, if it worked before it should work again"

 

[periculum]

OOC: I disaprove of the elemental planes, and I disaprove more strongly against quartering off the entire multiverse as part of those elemental planes. My realm is most certainly not in any "good section". It may be suffused with positive energy but that only serves to prolong the epic struggles that go on there on a daily basis. It's like a cleric casting heal on a couple of gladiators fighting to the death. does such an act suddenly make the colloseum an inherently "good" thing? The point was to prolong the conflict going on, requiring more effort to triumph over your foe.
Your proposal is far to restrictive to my liking. say perhaps we wanted a good plane, then an evil plane, then another good plane, lined up next to each other in that order. Does your good section have a gap in it, or perhaps there are now two good sections? if a reason can not be determined, and if it does not therefore restrict such from happening, then things get even worse, in that your system would be pointless, having no impact on the multiverse. Plus it still has a very generic flavor to it.

Not to sound too critical, I'm just voicing my oppinion. I still love the concept of your deity, just not your cosmology. The one we had going on before you introduced the elemental variations was working just fine.

 

[periculum]

IC: "I have no problem with reincarnation, so long as the soul gets a choice in the matter. Not all souls wish to continue the struggle, some would prefere the eternal rest and peace present in Traumes realm, and I would prefere that such weaklings and quiters remain deceased."

Meanwhile, having finished wrestling the giants to their hearts content, Tocho once again focuses entirely upon the meeting at hand.

 

[Albedo]

U-DO speaks up, "You can all do what you wish, but I shall not be part of this divine council you speak of. My matters are my own. Speaking of which, there is something I must attend to. I bid yuo all farewell."


OOC: Jochannan, I basically consider this matter closed. I just wanted you to explain a bit more on why things happened, not just that they happened. I am satisfied now.

 

[magic_gathering2001]

OOC: I could add Posative and negative planar sections as well to fit your plane. I would also put Ysgard in the "good section" because it is positive dominate. THe Elemental "Planes" are also sections as well. Sorry I didn't make this clearer and if anyone has a better cosmology i could easily have messed up and made it that way by accident. Also I don't do the Absolute concepts of good and evil. The plane is helpfull to those who are on it and is therefore good IMO but i decided that since obviously not everyone agrees with me i am willing to add posative and negative sections as well or to change it entirely
