Junior Gods of Anara (OOC/Worldbuilding)

[Galnius]

I don't mean one upping Jord.

Rather then say what I think your saying I'll just say that you might find some unexpected support.

I somehow doubt it

It's rebellion yeah?

It's rebelliOUS

It's rebelliOUS

I have noted the distinction.

[Harbertia]

My suggestion is for the senior gods to get at Jord for disrupting the trials.

The senior gods don't have much to do right now so this opens the door for them to have a conflict that occupies them.

Well since Cuprum is doing what he usually does, that is fucking around by himself. I planned on having Jord come and visit the Junior Gods, where I plan to give them challenges that could lead to their ascension. However, Jord is in this for the long game and of course plans to give the occasional task that helps him remove the sea and get more land.

Yeah- Cuprum and I have been in touch-

He's under the impression that the RP lacks a plot and thus that he had nothing to do.

I hope he's seen otherwise. He keeps trying to get a plot started between my character and his. I'm up for it but that doesn't change how he's just doing his own thing.

At least you acknowledged the training- Cuprum acts like it's none existent.

Seems to think we need a great demonic threat to combat.

I've stated to him that the best plots come from the characters themselves not some alien foe forced upon them.

Such a role I feel Jord fits in nicely-

Jord has disrupted the plans of the senior gods and certainly seems to have no care for them. Making him a renegade in the pantheon, and at the moment- a threat.

Not really a threat, More like the grumpy old man that yells at everyone to stay off their property when they pass by.

He's destroying a human town he's tolerated- civilization and thus worshipers can't continue like this. He plans to become the one ruler of creation. He is a threat.

[Harbertia]

He is a usurper;

The other senior gods can not allow him to continue.

He plans to retake the land that was lost when the ocean came to be. Also, yes Jord could easily be our villain considering the Orc and Goblin armies he has created. Plus the Wyrms.

However, I thought it would be interesting for Jord to trick the junior gods into doing his bidding for a time. Then once they realize he had no desire to award them, we could have a scuffle.

A single small earthquake isn't going to illicit a real response from the other gods. From my take on the earthquake, it was just enough to shake people, not a truly destructive one that would destroy the village. If he sent a big one, they would possibly respond.

Naw, he is just another senior god helping the trials at this point. His plans after that can force a response

The trails already have a source who isn't going to take kindly to your interference. Also,

Your obviously not reading into his words.

1) The land had to concede in creation- it's part of the natural order. He is disrupting that order.

2) He is not the teacher, he is not helping- he is like the fire alarm at school- a disruption.

3) The senior gods should be alarmed if not for their followers at least for their dominion over the world.

HIS OOC WORDS. Until he actually acts on these plans in the IC, no senior gods will do anything most likely

I had planned on the earthquake being a magnitude of 5.5, causing some parts of a few buildings to collapse but overall not really causing mass destruction. But I'm fine with it being interpreted as a small one, guess that means he should send a stronger one.

From there, I'll have big ol' Jord come to the area, it will easy to tell when he's there.

Also Jord could argue that the gods have no right being on his domain, the land. Plus he did create humans, while not creating things such as their creativity (They were suppose to just be tools of war, but our water god messed that up) he did bring them into existence. This could lead to some interesting IC conflicts.

It will be interesting to see how that develops. I thought it was small purely because of the way Jord talked. It seemed like he was simply sending something to get rid of pesky flies rather than something that could actually do harm.

[Harbertia]

ICly he's disrupted the trials. AT the least Ina- who- should be upset.

As for my term small- let me just say that to me Pompeii is small.

The only thing I consider big is something affecting a whole continent.

Edit: Chernobyl was small. That' s just how my mind works.

Well I didn't think I was right, but you really didn't pick up on the magnitude.

Wyrm's Mouth

The Heart of Terra, Jörð's Temple

---

Jörð, God of Terrestrial Earth, Creatures of the Land, Wyrms, and Magma

---

A wave of magma crashed into the wall of the Temple, bits of magma would fly and land on the great God. Jörð was silent, the sound of magma and the many dwarves working echoed through the volcano. The God watched as a dwarf fell into the magma below. Jörð laid still, as he had not moved in almost a century. However, he awoke. He felt the presence of the Gods, on his land. He sense them, far away.

They are weak...small...children... Jörð's thoughts ran as he located the Gods. Jörð then began to rise, and slowly the gigantic beast would crawl out from the massive volcano. At the edge of the crater, Jörð felt out again. It had been some time since the Gods had awoken him.

"Why must these children face their trials on my land...." Jörð spoke aloud, magma dripping out of his mouth as spoke. Then Jörð began to lift his front left leg up, and then he slammed it into the ground. While nothing had happened in the area near him, he had created an earthquake in the area of the junior Gods. "Perhaps this will silent them, and they will leave my domain."

'Silent them' should have been a red flag to the severity if the rest didn't make it clear. His anger at the gods- despite being one- he sees himself as different from them. He seems them as lesser.

That is true, it wasn't suppose to really harm any of the Gods, cause you know they're gods. However, he cares little for lives as humans ("There's more where that came from") thus doesn't care about the damage done to them.

I like to think of humans like a cake. At first, Jord just made the humans, the basic area of the cake. Then other gods came in and added to the cake, the icing and stuffing.

While Jord could argue that he created humans, others could say that they perfected them.

I'll try to get another post up some time soon.

Also, if Jord wanted to do some massive change to the earth, it would take a very long time. Earthquakes are a quick solution to small problems. The land is never perfect, thus must always change.

EDIT: AHHHH, how'd I type Silent instead of silence. Shit.

I'm ashamed alright

Inasaria will use this to come up with earthquake resistant housing down the road, just saying

As for the other gods... Somehow I see Inasaria and Jord seeing eye to eye on that.

Well... Save her. She can't to be due to humans, so he place is with them (not the gods, which she will EVENTUALLY come to understand). Yes, I plan on her fucking up and eventually forfeiting (but still partaking).

[Harbertia]

@Shark Isle: Do what you will with the snakes. Snakes take a place by occupying it, and the plan is to gradually terrorize- not overwhelm so I doubt you'll get a lof ot fights. I need the people (most of the people) alive to build me a shrine.

[Harbertia]

@Paketo: Your character is amazingly well done ^_^

[Galnius]

Personal thought...

If the water God gave them their creativity, would that mean that Inasaria was created by him? That would be pretty interesting...Not born, but molded by the god of the ocean with no knowledge of it herself.

I wouldn't say the God of water gave them creativity. Basically Jord was making the humans and then our water god decided to mess with the creation process. What was suppose to a creature that Jord could use to take back the land, ended up creating another species that is made up mostly of water and requires it to survive.

If you want to roll with what you stated above, go ahead. I don't think Altegonnia is coming back, at least not for a while.
