Ah, my first follower!

Fist sounds more like Eros than Agape.

Don't try to fence me in. Love is multi-faceted.

Here's what I'm thinking of for my dogma:

I am the self-fulfilling prophecy. Give love, and you WILL receive love. Let your every answer, your every action and reaction, your every desire, be rooted in love.

I'm not sure if I want it to be longer. Everything I've thought of to add seems to be merely an extension of that. After I show/explain a few scenarios to my followers, I think they'll come to see that. For example, it's not necessary to say Reward hate with love, since that's covered by "reaction." Short and sweet, eh? I'll give it some more thought.

Don't see why it has to be longer. Sounds good to me. (Although I liked Xar's suggestion for you too. Sounded like it could have been you writing it.) I better get on with mine...

This sounds quite interesting.
I can't decide if I'd like to be chaos and illusion (the fun antagonist )
or honor and courage.

I think perhaps in this experiment, unless there are objections, I would like to be Esmer....uhn, I mean chaos and illusion: A chance to branch out from the norm and try something different.

I think however that illusion and chaos were already taken... by the Sarge and Quee, respectively

Yes, indeed they are. My mistake.
I'll respond again after I've perused the list a bit more.

Personally, since it involves dieties, I would love to see it in The Close.

Tazzman, he has played before, but don't worry about that - so feel free to set aside your suspicion I did tell him the Watch had a friendly atmosphere, after all!

As for the information: I'd really rather wait until you all are done. However, I acknowledge that a deadline might be in order. Shall we say you have time until tomorrow, 9 pm GMT? People who can't make it for the deadline can always join us later.

im the nicest person you could ever wish to meet. but i am competitive. be warned!

deadline should be good.

Taz, RolePlayGames aren't competitive games... however i think if you want to be competitive, you will be competitive anyway!

im disregarding everything you say. could all be manipulative mind games that are designed to usurp my godly powers later in the game.
not as stupid as you thought am i ??!!!


sucker!**

I come in peace, undead is for all u want to embrace it... In peace...

No competitions, no emotions, only the peace of the restless dead.

We have no time to waste in useless competitions or manipulating weaker minds, we seek the pure knowledge and the only way to obtain it is to be patience and attuned with the endless time.

Sounds like the god worshipped in Terre d'Ange in Jackie Carey's Kushiel books. He wants everyone to love each other. For his central tenant, see my sig below.

I get it! God of Time - See you later.


duchess, are those good books?

I've heard good things about them, Fist, and the first one is on my to-read shelf, though I haven't read anything of it yet - but I've also heard that her dualogy, Banewreaker and Godslayer, while less well known, are better.


As for my god, I'm waiting for something to coalesce, there are bits and pieces of an idea floating about - I'll probably write it up tomorrow afternoon and post it. God of Healing; Lord of Tears....


(Malaz fans - yes, Dassem was on my mind when I thought of this)
