It's not BIG ENOUGH to count. It's just another boring god war.

And Thaneos will STILL execute them, if they're followers of you.
Probably extends to me, as I indirectly helped you with teachings of agriculture. If it does, then dammit, another place locked out of Corvus' influence.

"I was employed as a Field Agent two years ago at the NSA, sir. And I first encountered....them two years ago.
I was on a routine watch of a high-priority target, tailing him as per protocol, through an abandoned road he was driving down. Suddenly, a green flash just blinds me and rips the car apart, presumably killing him. It mercifully missed my car by inches, although the force was enough to knock me unconscious.
I suppose they were trying to brainwash me, or finish the job, because the next thing I saw was....some tall, inhuman thing come at me with a large helmet like object. I shot it dead, or....presumably dead in the heat of the moment. Can't tell with these things, can you, sir?
I unloaded the rest of my clip into it and escaped on foot. The target was never seen again and his file was closed. I recall he was called Albert Schliefe. German expat, reported to be working on secret rocket tech with Commie sleeper agents. I suppose that's why they went after him. Probably trying to keep humans out of space."

Apparently expressing concerns that my people might not be good enough for long term worship objectively was IC as well, although my terminology might have aided that.

Well, this OOC thread is at more risk of a Titanomachy than the actual thread!

Nonsense. The mask salesman is worse.
Back on topic....wait, apart from deconstructing my plans, what were we even talking about?

« on: February 27, 2013, 05:38:21 pm »Are that old men even exist? As far as I can see, the only religion that gives power to Corvus is the cult of Az-Sho... Meanwhile old men died of old age
You can see why I need worshippers. His cult is so small as to not even factor in apart from being a pantheon worshipping entity. I admit preaching was a bit stupid, but even so, at the time, I wasn't necessarily thinking about tech stuff, more on GET WORSHIPPER NOW.

Still, risk of insanity falling there. Even Corvus isn't going to let that go unpunished.

Also, he'd end up killing them. That would probably piss Corvus off enough to at least drive them insane by overloading their minds by mass copying his knowledge (which is everything that has ever existed) into theirs, which isn't prepared to handle it except if they're the Overgod, which by definition, can, a Crowblessed, or Corvus himself. Oh, and walk off regretting it,what with pacifism and all.

« on: February 27, 2013, 05:18:06 pm »Hmmm, if someone were to torture a Crowblessed; they would gain knowledge to anything you know, or thought. That can end up pretty well.
Assuming you don't kill him first. Old man and all that.
And assuming you can tell which Crowblessed has the open mind Corvus blessed two or three of them with.

The pool of knowledge Corvus holds in his mind.
If you think I built one, then stop reading my plans dammit.
Also, said gods can get away with it due to being much more powerful or at least slightly more powerful than Corvus. Corvus hasn't had time or power to build on, so creating a race who can access his pool of knowledge aka his mental pool is probably not the best idea right now.

Not even a race. Literally, 20 or so male individuals with only two or three of them possessing the open mind to utilise Corvus' pool of knowledge.

« on: February 27, 2013, 05:01:28 pm »You know, there are like, three continents occupied. There's Eversummer, the North, and the Dwarven one. If you take into account that the ninth is uninhabitable and that Azthor landed on another, that still leaves four empty continents for you to take.
In that case, the first option might be viable, but we run into game balance. NOBODY is going to like super intelligent beings running around under the command of a single god who can make them do what he likes. Assuming they aren't nerfed by the GM to be weaker physically, rendering making a race moot because then I need to expend another act to create a symbiotically attached race that is stupid but strong, which carries implications and difficulties of its own.
