I wonder if that's a subtle hint that you would like to get 1000 HP in return for your generosity :P
No, it's a subtle hint to keep people voting for me... doh!
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Simjen and Nor Yekith were tied in the Best Gravin Threndor Character Watchy poll. Creator suggested they battle it out. Both have made appearances in said nomination thread.

I've made a first draft for a RPG FAQ, on the basis of a comment made by a RPGer who found the Threndor intimidating. Join me, and make it better!

Well, I'm working on the turns... and we already had a fascinating event, with two deities competing for a city's worship. It was a bloodbath!

I'm... semi-confident that won't be me. Then again, I have the worst luck sometimes. Look forward to seeing these results, then, to find out.

Nice post Lore, but you scared me for a minute when I almost thought you were bringing Nor back into the game!

Well, the Interdict is gone ... and there is Nyitha ... a remnant of his Malice to be sure. But I bet even Nor Yekith couldn't tame that area!! :biggrin:

I'm very confident that won't be me (for the bloodbath involvement...well, not that kind of a bloodbath, anyway). I think it's easy money to guess which two god's followers had an altercation.

Not being overly familiar with P2, I must confess, I still found that Nor Yekith post almost sad. Very nicely done.

Well, the blood of Prophets has been spilt... we're not even at the end of the third turn, and two Prophets bite the dust already.

Becoming a Prophet may make you more powerful, but it seems that it also drastically shortens your life expectancy...

Damn! I would be surprised - and extraordinarily sad - if Azver was among the fallen. But then, my father's first Prophet died while minding his own business, so one never knows. I have a guess, of sorts, but I would not dare voice it! 8O :lol:

So, how far through the turns have you gotten, if all this has happened already? Could there be even more big stuff to come?

The scary thing is that I've only processed a handful of deities so far... so the largest part of the turn is still to be done 8O
