[3.x/PF] GitP Regulars as Deities... again.

[IZ42]

I'm True Neutral now?

My necromantic energies are saddened. I jest, I jest. I approve heartily, though I'm slightly surprised the Creation domain wasn't on the list (although it's mostly identical to Artifice iirc).

Aaahhh... The problem is, I was using the official Pathfinder Domains List. I thought creation was a domain, but I wasn't sure, so I went with PF only. I will update your domains to include this.

Ah, I'm used to just running from the 3.5 Spell Compendium (and recognized Artifice from Eberron/Deities and Demigods).

[IZ42]

You're all alone, now. They will hear your screams, but they will not come.

Then I will fight you with all my power!

Yes, yes, it's SAO, but it's the only appropriate GIF I could find.

[NeoPhoenix0]

Why would i stop the music?

Edit: actually can i play backup?

[Blackhawk748]

Nope-topus isn't fast enough! Must. Reach. Escape. Velocity!!!!

[NeoPhoenix0]

Edited for less jarring gif

[Snowbluff]

Then I will fight you with all my power!

I know you like SAO, but you're bringing an unconscious nerd to a fight!

Edit: actually can i play backup?

No, I'm fine. Thank you for the offer.

[IZ42]

I know you like SAO, but you're bringing an unconscious nerd to a fight!

Very Well, this should do.

I like the concept and the combat, not necessarily the execution. I've explained this before.

[eggynack]

This has gone in an odd direction.

[IZ42]

This has gone in an odd direction.

What do you mean?

It's not a thread with Snowbluff in it if it doesn't get horribly derailed at some point.

[NeoPhoenix0]

we even have a thread to lower the derailment a bit. we have of course derailed the derailment thread.

[Xuldarinar]

I came to see myself in deity form, but it has turned this way. Perhaps we can get it back more on task?

Not that the derailment isn't fun and all.


For something more on subject, I figure I would be a demigod of sorts or at most a lesser deity. I can argue any of the following domains being among my things:

Spoiler

Show

Chaos: I figure myself more than likely CN, least within one step thereof.
(Demon): Demons interest me, as do kyton but I do not see myself as LE. If this, perhaps a demon lord?
(Entropy): I wouldn't wish to rule, but to destroy all things. Also the home-brews of the Elder Evil Epigone and Ur-priest alternative class reinforce this, though more to the end of an opposition against the gods. Im not typically malevolent, I can even be quite nice and even empathetic. Think of it as a mercy, perhaps.
(Whimsy): My homebrew and even some of my posts are very given to my whims, in a way this has made things suffer.

Darkness: I love working with shadow-themed things, and there are too many to practically list examples of. Of official domains, this one is where it is at, though I do recall Peacenlove does have a Shadow Magic domain in Complete Shadow Magic.

Madness: I do not consider myself fully sane, and I do have quite the interest in insanity mechanics and things that would come out of the Dark Tapestry (or the Far-realm if we are talking 3.5).

Psionics: There is a psionics domain, though not on the SRD. Atleast given my work on subpsionics, this makes sense.

Void: See below
(Dark Tapestry): In addition to my interest in such things, I pride myself on the Alloprax.

I more than welcome, as previously stated, someone to run with things. One could use these suggestions to work with or ignore them entirely. In any case I would love to see how I'm perceived, even if isn't favorably. Im sure others would like the same for themselves too, hence the postings by them granting such permission.

[Snowbluff]

Very Well, this should do.

Hahaha! He's more junk than man!

It's not a thread with Snowbluff in it if it doesn't get horribly derailed at some point.

I'm running a game with Elric in it. Eggy is talking about a poem that describes a math proof that he wrote.

just pointing out that your thread for discussing anime so we wouldn't derail the last thread so bad is of course being derailed. not that it had tracks to begin with.

[eggynack]

Eggy is talking about a poem that describes a math proof that he wrote.

That I am, though to be more accurate, the poem itself is a proof, which is awesome. Whole new wave of what math is, and those who cannot poem will be left behind. Man, I am just actually super enthusiastic about that thing.

That gnomish duck calculus has a long way to catch up.

Speaking of which, Ignacio should reply to Nalin. They have feels to hash out and Luka gets to play Dr. Phil.

[IZ42]

Hahaha! He's more junk than man!

Actually, that's false. You're thinking of Alphonse.

[Snowbluff]

Actually, that's false. You're thinking of Alphonse.

You need to watch Rozen Maiden about junk and Star Wars about being more machine than man before you hurt Al's feelings.

[tadkins]

I didn't get a race in the other thread, here's hoping I could get a deity instead? :D

Edit: Feel free to use this thread as an inspiration.

[Reprimand]

I hereby give my premission, lets see if I get my name used this time : P

[sideswipe]

"when that train gets off the track, pick it up, pick it up, PICK IT UP UP UP!"

[ZamielVanWeber]

Alright, here's the Greater Deity version or Red Fel. Vermeil is Latin for the color Red.

Spoiler: Red, the Fallen

Show

There once was a great Sorceror who went by the name Vermeil, a crusader for all that was Good and Pure. As he quested, he saw that as mighty as he would ever become, as much as he fought and risked his life againt the unspeakable horrors of the infinite multiverse and beyond, there was always more Evil to be found.

Eventually, he changed. Obviously, Good was not the true order of things if his countless victories only led to countless more of the entities popping up.

Always charismatic and intelligent in the extreme, Vermeil turned to the realm of Evil, taking the name Red. he fought for its causes (though always on his own terms), proseltized its ethos, and still enjoyed life just as thoroughly as he did before his change of view. When eventually he lay at death's door, his power refused to fade. In the Hall of the Gods, he convinced the forces of Evil to chose him to lead them. They still have no idea how he did it.

Dogma
Evil does not mean savage, nor does it make one automatically a betrayer. One must put one's self forward, as this is the only way to become all that one can be. A single civil and urbane voice in discussion at the right time can do more for the cause than a million monsters.

Clergy and Temples
Red the Fallen is one of few truly Evil deities who is openly worshiped, in great part because he sees no need to destroy good (it'll all come to him eventually anyway). His clergy all wear red, the deeper the color the higher the rank. Novices wear a red so light it's almost pink, and his High Priest wears a red so deep it is visible through darkvision. All wear his symbol on a clasp, binding their robes together over their heart to show their dedication. None ever hide this symbol, even where it can get them killed.

Malevolus
The Whisperer, The High Lord of Evil,
Greater Deity
Symbol: A black circle, on which a red crescent is emblazoned points-upward, almost like a grin.
Home Plane: The Seven Hells (where he is welcome anywhere)
Alignment: Lawful Evil
Portfolio: Evil, Debate, Diplomacy, and powers which enhance the self.
Worshipers: Evil creatures who wish to live peacefully, those who put themselves forward above all, Diplomats
Cleric Alignments: LE, LN, NE
Domains: Evil, Law, Glory, Community
Favored Weapon: Quarterstaff

Pantheon: Evil
Relationships: Red has a surprisingly good relationship with nearly every other major Power, save only those who would lessen his efforts by intentional or unintentional interference. He is said to be excellent in a debate and persuasive, no matter what the topic at hand.

Yes, that's right. Evil and Glory domains on the same guy.

EDIT: Holy CRAP swordsage'd. I was right, though.

This makes such a fantastic foil to the God of the White Legion (homebrew CG deity of love and redemption) that I would like permission to officially include him in my own games' pantheon.

Permission happily granted. Just credit me if it gets posted anywhere public.

[Elricaltovilla]

You have all done well. So much Red Fel and LoyalPaladin. I'm curious what the great playground can do for the legendary Keledrath.

Kind of makes me wish I actually had information on the character somewhere on this site. If only he weren't impossible to recreate in 3.5/PF without absurd homebrewing/houseruling/tristalting

Keledrath
Alignment: TN
Rank: Lesser Deity
Domains: War, Artifice, Glory, Strength, Protection
Symbol: A crossed sword and spear over a roundshield
Favored Weapon: It's complicated...
Legend: Keledrath was a legendary warrior from the beginning of the world who worked to master unusual fighting styles and explore new weapons and skills. He mastered weapon after weapon, learning each in turn until one day, there was nothing left. Most great masters face such a crisis and find themselves broken by their own perfection, but Keledrath persevered, having realized that mastery over each weapon individually was nothing compared to a mastery of all weapons as one. Keledrath returned to his studies, traveling from battlefield to battlefield to master his new styles and to find the connection between each and every weapon. When finally his end came, Keledrath was welcomed among the gods as a hero and a mortal of exceptional ability.

Beliefs and Tenets: The above legend contains much of the core beliefs of those who worship Keledrath. Chiefly, that mastery over a skill is never complete, and that innovation is just as important as understanding the established systems. Worshipers of Keledrath value hard work, skill, and creativity. Martial skill is very common among his followers, but they do not reserve themselves to only mastering martial skill.

Holidays: One of Keledrath's most important holidays is the week long Grand Tourney. Followers all over the world gather together to engage in friendly competition of all kinds. At the Grand Tourney, new skills are demonstrated, new inventions displayed and new foods tasted. Winners of the various competitions receive prizes and blessings from the church.

Godly Relationships: Keledrath finds common ground with other gods of martial skill, and any who support knowledge, innovation and craftsmanship.

Mortal Champions:
The Keledrath- Whispers exist that the mortal form of Keledrath still walks the earth, forever sealed in his armor and carrying his signature multiple weapons to test the mettle of his followers and to continue his desire to bring mastery of all weapons under a single style.

The Artificer- Gnome Artificer 20. A master inventor who has been a fan and worshipper of Keledrath supposedly since before he even ascended to godhood. The Artificer crafts new and interesting magical items for the church of Keledrath, which are then disseminated to the faithful.

The Gourmand- Orc Expert 20. The Gourmand holds the title of the greatest chef in the world. His skill in the kitchen borders on the deific already, and he credits his success to the church of Keledrath's valuing innovation so highly. The Gourmand is known to sometimes have a sour mood though, so months may go by without him cooking, until suddenly he bursts onto the scene again whipping up feast for heroes, kings and beggars alike.

[Krik]

Krik plucks a string on his tiny lute, giving permission to deity-fy him forever. The deaf man in the corner can't hear it and does nothing.

*cough*
I'm a black scaled kobold bard, if that clarifies anything.

[LoyalPaladin]

I'm curious what the great playground can do for the legendary Keledrath.

Keledrath! I was wondering when you'd show up!

Maybe i should make a tribute to Paladin-sensei. Don't worry it won't be Neutral Evil.

Oh dear...

Way to go Illyahr, now the cosmos is ran by a Paladin and a Legion Hive-Mind of Evil Amazingness. No room for the gods of Bards and Weasels, apparently.

We do have a moe god. So that's a thing. But fear not citizen, I'll protect you.

This has gone in an odd direction.

Welcome to the last 3 Snowbluff threads I've been in...

we even have a thread to lower the derailment a bit. we have of course derailed the derailment thread.

That thread went from on topic, to veering off the rails, to back on topic, and now we've lost it entirely to the abyss.

Then I will fight you with all my power!

I shall stand beside you!
