IIRC, Nephy was actively trying to wake the beast in P1, and I wouldn't be surprised if he has been studying it since. He almost certainly knows more about it than anyone. It may well be his pet once it's awake. Or he may be immune to it. And I may have just given Xar a couple ideas, but I doubt he hasn't already considered these things.

There, there, young Tar. *pats head* You must let Steve go. Don't make the poor creature choose between two Loves. Remember Solomon's wisdom.

Indeed. We cut Steve in half.

The Dragon Goddess who caused this turmoil has been unusually silent. No comment, no apology, has anyone been contacted by her?

She is still on the list, and a DRP stronger it appears, so I assume she is not dead. Since I am aware of the nature of her attempt, I wonder if she is trapped or damaged...

Why, I go to sleep for a few hours, and a page and a half of comments await me when I come back... how flattering
I'm glad you all enjoyed the stories - that's why it took so long to get the turn out
As for the various questions:
Murrin - the war on Olaern does not concern you directly, but if you speak with Adomorn and/or Argothoth you will learn that an army of Argothoth's undead are battling a smaller army of Adomorn's followers.
Bhakti, Asta - the fact that Nephirthos is not in the list is intentional

But you'll have to wait for the only person who knows exactly why and how. Still, if you look carefully, you might get a hint or two about the scope of his power...
Asta - Mox is still your vassal.

The scope of his power isn't in question.

I mean, sheesh! He just threw like 50 DRP's at us!! I'm curious about whether or not he is one of us. It would be helpful to know if efforts that would work against each other will work against him. Will cloaks hide his vision? Will shields block his power? That kind of thing.

Well, the highest rank is 20, and I don't think I'd be surprised if Xar had made Nephirthos a rank 20 god...

I don't doubt it either. However, my concern is for the nature of his strength. Is it the same as the Power all of us use?
-There is no possibility of cutting each other off from our source of Power - our followers. If he is one of us, then we cannot cut him off from his source of Power.
-The Star of Yekith blocked divine sight, but that does not mean it blocked the sight of demons from other dimensions. Can we expect such expenditures of DRP's to block his sight?

The logical question would be - WHERE are his followers, if he has any? Until you know that, you can't know whether his power is the same as yours, or if he draws power from somewhere else.

Again, it's impossible to say, especially since none of you have interacted with him yet.

It's been like that for 2 days already. Since somebody called it to your attention, I would suspect that somebody of engineering the change...
