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

WOW!!

As I understand the new rules, imbuing a new Prophet rquires permanent sacrifice of DRP ... So, the deities that lost Prophet's, if they are 1 DRP gods, must wait until they have 2DRPs and Turn without a Prophet. Correct?

well if this is anything like P2, then I would wager it is about time for my first prophet to die. Let's see - I went through four prophets last game......hmmmmm.....
Yep, its about time.
LOL!!!!!!

I like that new Calais Av. What's it from? It's striking me as vaguely familiar.

Well, who was contesting cities?

Although perhaps the god of War was hungry and heard that Dragons taste like chicken!!

[Yes, o-gon-cho, I know it's old But forgive me, I couldn't resist! *bows with a florish*]

So, is anyone gonna take a Dead Pool on this...?

yeah!! We can do a 'poll' to see if we get it right!! would be cool!

Deva, you look just like the Harrow when you bow like that. --- Yeah, Calais, you were my first thought too. But you gotta admit, with cho's followers declaring a crusade against the God of War, you might be off the hook. This time. But don't get too comfy!

...damn...I didn't even ask for cryptic hints this time, and I regret hearing them...

*hoping, praying that Xar's wording does not imply Zendra, as Zendra is being contested for land, not worship at this time*

Why thank you!! *bows again!*

I tried to post a Dead Pool ... but the number of our Prophet's overwhelm the phpBB's capability!

well here's my guess on dead prophets....i'lll just remind you all that i believe xar processes ALPHABETICALLY.

The possibility occured to me, but I think he's denied that in the past. Still, I'm worried. I actually was stupid enough to specify my prophet would go unarmed during his action this turn...

Well, if it is you, you can gain some consolation that your Prophet took another down with his bare fists.

Xar didn't say the prophets killed each other. Nor did he say whether their deaths were related to the gods contesting for the same city (though it seems likely that there's some connection).

Yeah, not good to be them, at the moment. I'm just glad he said "blood," and not "sap." And yeah, let's hear it for alphabetical order!

Ha! True. Could always PM our guesses to you. I'll give five HP for anyone who gets a prophet right.

True. I was trying to avoid mentioning that, just to give you a little ray of sunshine.

Ok. any who want! I'll post the running bets each day until the Turn's in! hmmmmm .... should you give ME the 5 HP to hold for the winner?

Nah - you know I'm good fer it, gov.

Oh...good point.
He said "blood," not "ichor" nor "sap."
*whew*

hehehe...

Quite a difference between Zephyr and Bhakti, if alphabetical processing is done...

Honestly, I don't think bloodbath was meant to be literal. Sap or Ichor bath just has no ring to it. That said, I reckon it was mostly blood.

Ice Titans haven't got blood, so I'm safe then! Whew! (yes, I know I'm not getting off that easy, I'm really worried about this!)
