Mage Prophet
so
how do you think a normal Sunday (or whatever) would be like in an IVAN gods' temple?
I mean we know Nefas, of course
lots of drugs and sex
but I wonder about the others...
chaostrom says:
Atavus - charity
Mellis - sales
Valpurus - licking Petrus' boots
Izzy says:
rofl
so at atavus' church services you come in and exchange gifts?
or the priest gives out money or something?
mellis would probably yeah be the same thing but with currency involved
chaostrom says:
no no no
the activities are done by the worshippers
not by the church
it's IVAN
Izzy says:
right so the people come in and exchange gifts
oh
wait
so all that shit i'm saccing at Atavus altars is going to people in Atavian temples?
lay worshippers?
chaostrom says:
possibly
Izzy says:
rofl
cruentus would likely be some kind of blood cult
chaostrom says:
you see, despite what their alignment says, atavus and mellis are secretly friends
atavus gives a lot of the shit to mellis, who gives it to his followers to sell
Izzy says:
well of course. mellis is the god of politics, he's probably really suave and slick and everybody grudgingly likes him
chaostrom says:
atavus keeps the shiny stuff, gets rid of the junk, mellis gets free items to sell, ergo, money
win-win
Izzy says:
ha
chaostrom says:
silva - hippy sessions? tree planting? wolf feeding?
Izzy says:
I imagine Legifer would be somewhere between a Tibettan monestary and a Catholic church
chaostrom says:
lmao
lamp crafting
dungeon lighting
hell, they probably have a monopoly on lights
Izzy says:
lots of sitting quietly and meditating on the intracicies of lamps while everyone chants in a dead language about how great Legifer is and the ways they should live their lives
chaostrom says:
XD
Izzy says:
simultaniously reinforcing the proper social order
chaostrom says:
and once in a while, they'll do a favour to other churches and burn heretics with holy fire
Izzy says:
the priests are Better Than You
haha yeah
I bet sophos's temple is just a library
chaostrom says:
hmm
dunno
Izzy says:
not particularly structured, like everything's in it's place but they don't have real services, you just come in and learn
/ make things
chaostrom says:
I'm thinking it'll look more like stargate or something
warp portals to god knows where
Izzy says:
wah
oh
rofl
no
that'd be infuscor
chaostrom says:
nah
Izzy says:
or mortifer
i mean yeah sophos teleports i suppose
chaostrom says:
infuscor has the necromancer's hideout/mad scientist's lab
Izzy says:
but i see sophos as a god of responsible use of magic
I dunno I imagine it being another cult. Well actually
chaostrom says:
they're all cults
Izzy says:
"cult" has an ordered sound to it, which doesn't work
since they're chaotic
chaostrom says:
mortifer doesn't have a church
an established building?
useless!
i Am tHe DeStRoYeR oF wOrLdS
he'd just wreck anything they tried to build
'cus that's him, y'know
Izzy says:
Mortifer's followers probably just find a crater or some ruins and wreck it some more, then hold some service there where they consume eachother's life forces
before going off and burning down a town or something
chaostrom says:
lmao
that sounds about right
cleptia...
"repossession"
Izzy says:
Silva's followers probably smoke weed and talk about trees
regular hippies
I saw cleptia as being like, an assassin's guild
your worship is to accept a contract to end anothers' life
and your sacrifice is a blade stained with your mark's blood
chaostrom says:
lol
Izzy says:
scabies... just doesn't sould like a fun person to worship
chaostrom says:
lepers
Izzy says:
right, not somewhere i want to be visiting
chaostrom says:
lmfao
Izzy says:
the corprusarium
don't forget famine too
chaostrom says:
"come in and trade in your sickness for another one!"
"better deals if you have a particularly debilitating illness"
if you're devout enough you can just transfer your illness to someone you hate
Izzy says:
but you can't eat anything
or at least, can't eat much
chaostrom says:
sure you can
Izzy says:
...famine?
chaostrom says:
just gotta make sure to vomit on the altar
Izzy says:
so be a bulimiac
rofl
that's dumb
does that actually grant you favor? sounds like something that would
with nefas or scabies
chaostrom says:
with scabies, yes
Izzy says:
"oh shit i'm hella drunk BLUUUUUUH:"
chaostrom says:
the only one that'll accept vomit on the altar
Izzy says:
that's dumb
chaostrom says:
everyone else deflects it back at your head
and it may kill
Izzy says:
I actually had a leg dissolve from standing in puke
didn't come off but it took a bunch of damage
chaostrom says:
lmao
Izzy says:
giant spider bites suck
chaostrom says:
better than snake bite
Izzy says:
poison is actually really nasty OH
no worse. regular spiders are weaker than snakes but there are also giant spiders, and it seems to me those are worse
I was gonna test how effective stabbing someone with a weapon coated in poison-jar poison would be
chaostrom says:
I wonder if spider blood is just a renamed poison, or is actually different
Izzy says:
oh shit, i have a save game. nevermind, i'll do it later
chaostrom says:
oh shit
who was that
DULCIS
Izzy says:
love & art?
chaostrom says:
they'll have a concert once a week
Izzy says:
heh
probably sit around finger painting the rest of the time
chaostrom says:
lmao
Izzy says:
i imagine like a roman bath full of half-naked women
chaostrom says:
XD
Izzy says:
all just lounging around
not like, erotic, but like you would see in an oldass painting
