[QUOTE="James Heard, post: 3615753, member: 7280"] I'm interested. [b]Aalim Maalak[/b] (Ah-LEEM mah-LAHK) Aalim Maalak is older than legends, for most merely a footnote of old script hidden in curious corners of the multiverse as a myth. A founder of cities, a father of nations, Aalim Maalak once walked incarnate through the planes, replacing chaos with order and instructing all students of his mysteries in the deep meditations necessary to instruct the void to yield to creative forces of a focussed mind. In those teachings he taught countless beings the kernels of great peace and serenity, but he also taught as many more the whirlwind of passion that can be rode through meditating the void. He is a being of great order but also great destruction. While his very essence sings with order, it picks no favorites in the fashion of that order. Aalim Maalak might favor the mighty force of the lawful hosts of good while dismissing their condemnation of the acts of their foes as irrelevant. In another age, he might side with the mighty empire bringing their variety of order with the blade of sword to the untidy masses of the frontier, no matter how brutal their methods or how innocent their victims. He has waged war upon celestials and demons alike, a force of his own will rather than aligned with either unruly side in intemperate conflict. Despite his favor of neutrality though, his true focus has been and ever shall be the forges of creation and destruction that temper the universe into structure itself. He is the consummate scholar of the structure and nature of the infinite, and while well known for his temper and his infamous mood, his orderly demeanor has often slipped from dabbling with the nature of the void over the eons. [B] Personality:[/B] Aalim Maalak is often quiet from eons of imprisonment, but when he does choose to talk it is from the certainty of a being convinced of his own ability and self-importance. [B]Symbol:[/B] Aalim Maalak's symbol is often rendered into an iron helm, or even an iron coin or simple gray disk. Originally his symbol was the image of his constant silent companion - the immense, pitted iron golem called Melkaa. [CENTER]-----------------------[/CENTER] Ok. Trying to make some sense out of this character creation: [code] Ranks Domain 6 Magic (21) (Major) 10 Knowledge (30) (Greater) 4 Humanity (6) (Greater) 6 Crafts (12) (Lesser) 1 Constructs (1) (Minor)[/code] Basically I'm going for a deity whose main focus was the intricacies of the universe and who basically got influence over time by the sorts of things they were wanting from him.
