Scions: Rules and Discussion
Moderator: [Syl]
It'll do for a start. Fist, Caam, Murrin... you know you wanna drop some short story action on us. Keep the torch going.
'Cause here's what I know. We'll all be more interested in continuing to play if there's more churn. And especially, Syl will be more interested in processing turns if there's more interesting stuff going on.
And while we don't always want to give stuff away in our own turns by making public posts about it... the more secrets there are, the less we'll keep things going. So let's all find SOMETHING to write about, as often as possible. (And I say this as much to myself as anybody else. I know how I am.)

Deadline is tomorrow. I have two submissions.
"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.”

Well, I mean, it IS after deadline. It's pretty much a given that I don't miss deadlines. I only remember once, in Purgatory, and the game ended that turn. I'm not gonna be responsible for another game ending!

I imagine that Culo is like Time from the Piers Anthony books, so he starts at what we will believe is the end of the game, and moves backwards in time. So Fist plays and plays and plays, and eventually he gets to the beginning of the game and wins.
And what he wins is the chance to finally die and stop being the God of Time.
