Title: I'm alive!
Post by: Xeviat on March 19, 2006, 05:48:22 PM
I posted on the tavern but I can't tell if anyone replied because I can't load up all the old posts ...

So I'm here for the love! I'm so amazed that you all have become such a great community, in spite of my absense. I'm going to do my best to contribute again, so hopefully you'll all see me around here.

I'm still fine tuning my setting; I'm finishing up the mechanical stuff (which I'll be asking for help in the meta forum a lot in the next couple of weeks). Hopefully it will all be done soon so I can start building my webpage.

Fun fun fun.  It's good to see you here, Xeviat.  just a small request, could you edit the thread back at WoTC so that I'll actually be a member?  I've been making myself a celebrity here, but my name still isn't on the official list.  The setting is godswalk, and here's the link...

Again, it's good to see you.

Natural 20 ... what number were you? Heck, forget the numbers; give me a quick description of your setting and I'll edit the thread as soon as I get it from you.

Alright, I think Xev certainly needs a hero cult of his own.  And I'm formally declaring myself leader of this cult now before anybody else can jump on it and wrest it away from me.

Now we can have religious wars!

Yay!  Religious wars!  The cult of Ishmayl versus the cult of Xeviat!  Let the games begin!

anywho, my setting is godswalk, here's a description.

Egridar is a world where the gods who made the world and it's people became so distractd by their divine conflicts that they forgot to watch over that which they made.  Because the gods were failing in their duty, new deities have arisen in the world to care for the people.  Unfortunately, the two generations of gods are now at war.  The scary part is, they walk among us.

I was #49, as per request if you recall.

I am not divinity. I do not sanction my worship!

On a side note, I recently created a new religion for the "lower material world" in my campaign setting, which consists of three different material worlds. The divinity of the religion is a several millenia years old Vampire Lord who runs the largest wizard's guild on the continent/world. So many people followed his leadership (his guild is the center of a grand city, which he also rules) that they began to worship him, and he awoke as a deity (my setting is animistic, so anything given enough reverence can become a deity). He doesn't sanction his worship, but he doesn't fight it either. His domains are Evil, Death, Knowledge, Magic, and Law, so he's kind of like Vecna in ways. Currently have a player who will be running a Templar character following him in my evil campaign.

Fun stuff.

No, you aren't a divinity.  You receive divine honors as part of a Hellenic hero death-cult, though.  It's all quiet classical.  Tasteful, really.  There are wine libations and sacrifices of animals too.

Hey me too!! :drunk:

That is why our coconut drinks here on the Love Trireme only have paper umbrellas in them.
No actual alcohol.

I bring my own flask though...gotta be prepared for virgin drink shennanigans

Virgin drinks are the devil. I don't drink to get drunk, but oddly I like the taste of alcohol. Good alcohol, not that rubbing alcohol stuff some places try to sell.

Mmmmm...rubbing alcohol

No more drinking while we have a session, we got no where except for telling dead baby jokes.

I rarely drink while gaming actually, but that's because many people I've played with over the years have had no control over themselves, and I got used to being the alcohol cop.

Now that I play with a few minors, I don't really want them getting their hands on it, and then driving home...

It's the fates conspiring against me I tells ya.

There Crit, you're on the WotC thread. Happy?

By the way, how's that Ish vs. Xev war going? Someone better have died by now.

Either way, Ishmayle deserves quite a bit more credit than I; he built these boards and acted in my absense. I'm not abidcating what ever throne I was built, but still hasn't been presented to me, but I'm not about to take power from Ishmayle.

Not that any was offered to me ...

:sulks: I get the feeling I'm not as funny as I'd like to be ...

Darn it! At least it was a homophone error ...

My students are going to use this against me ... must erase all evidence.

I am sorry, Great Lord!  Terrestrial duties drew me away from the foundation of your cult, but I shall about it immediately!
