User name change from Nephirthos, or two separate accounts?

Looks like Nephirthos and The World Breaker are two different user acconts, Menolly. What's up with that?


Also: Please tell me Neph will still be his obsessive, paranoid old self. Otherwise Maeror won't get to have as much fun taunting him.

If Nephy and World Breaker are BOTH in the Pantheon ... they MUST both be listed!! (so we know how powerful they are.) Do my cousins agree? :biggrin:

Uh... *raises hand to get Xar's attention* Will my turn end any time soon??? I've been making plans for 23's moves for some days. Now I learn that the state of affairs in Shakari is not what I thought it was; that Herzwald is broken; that I've lost (how many?) more Forestals; that, instead of one of these creatures landing and being destroyed, four more landed, and they're running around Shakari?? I'll change my moves now, unless I should wait for more info. (Please fill in the appropriate tone of voice for this post.)

Actually, it's not just your turn... give it time and keep an eye on the game thread, all of you ;) YOUR turn is over though. The World Breaker is also somehow breaking the known rules, acting in between turns - as your passage shows, and others will show later. As for how or whether he can do this with impunity, if he has to follow some (unknown) rules, or if he's expending power doing this... I'll let you people judge ;)

I'll reiterate though - the actions that affect Bhakti are over until the end of the turn... :twisted:

I'll state it openly so that all may know - only the Allfather can act between the turns or allow other gods to do so, such as when I met with him to receive the boon to which we all agreed. If the World Breaker is doing this, I think it means he has stolen at least this ability. Considering what he stole from Kadna, I don't think this is beyond the realm of possibility.

If that is the case, what is our recourse? I believe one of us may have to enter the mists, not to confer with the Allfather directly, but to find a way to counter this.

Myself, I will be going into battle with Nephirthos directly this turn, committing the whole of my DRP to it. If anyone would aid me with DRP, please say so here or at least inform me via PM.

Yeah, but I didn't want to quote 'Xar' in the game thread, so thought it'd make more sense all in one place. I'll repost minus the quote.

So. CAN Nephirthos hear what's said in the Pantheon? Specifically our plans? That would suck.

For the sake of having stuff in the open rather than a flurry of PMs, no, Nephirthos can't hear what's said in the Pantheon thread - although he can intervene and then hear what is said in answer to his words.

As an additional piece of info: as I told Asta, because entering the Mists is a rather important move (and, given the info Simjen brought back about the AllFather and the end of the world, a god entering the Mists is something which might be of concern to others), a god who wishes to enter the Mists can do so on in one of two ways:

1) He can manifest just outside the Mists in "Turn 1" and then step into the Mists in "Turn 2" (which means that the gods learn about his action between Turn 1 and Turn 2, and can therefore act to prevent his entrance if they wish); or

2) He can manifest just outside the Mists and enter them, provided he explicitly and publicly warns everyone about this in the game thread before the deadline of the turn so that the other gods can change their actions, if needed.

As far as I can see, Asta chose option 2 and already posted his intentions in the game thread. Keep this in mind when planning your moves.

Asta has listened to Simjen and is currently not planning on entering the mists this Turn. I will let the Pantheon know if Asta changes his mind!!
