Mandi's pretty good at that. *Nods*

But eh, I feel as though my lack of knowledge keeps me from doing things.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears, and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination.

So, would Greater Beings be similar to Titans? Chronos was a Titan, and the Titans were greater than the gods.

Or would a Titan be in between?

A brief check of the usual suspect online references suggests they're spelling variations of the same name.

I'm working on the final collab with Swith. We'll change over as soon as she posts it.

What will happen is:

We move to the new OOC. Please take time to READ the very last post of mine. It explains.
We move on to the new IC. PLEASE take the time to read the Prologue. If your character is going with the xenos (you'll understand once you read), you'll need to read Swith's post as well.

(Greater Beings created the Titans. And yes, Ournous and Uranus are the same.)

Also, speaking of the new threads, would Rachelle and Tolya require apps themselves?

Do you intend to play them as player characters? If so, I'd say so.

Rachelle, yes. Tolya, not really (He's still a little toddler)

Fair enough, and was Rylli's app accepted?

Ask Cer for all acceptances at the sound of the frozen banana.

Figured one of them would be the Roman version until I remembered, stupid me, that Caelus is the Romanized form of the Greek Uranus/Oranous.

The question is, if someone romances you, do you become a Latinophile?

This blew my mind.

Better question: If someone likes kissing necks, can they summon zombies to march in their undead army? (Necromancer)

ATTENTION PLAYERS
We are moving to the new thread

Image
PERSONIFICATION LIFE: EPIC

New OOC Link: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=353987.
New IC Link: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=354357

Please read over the new OOC prior to posting in the IC. The setting has changed.

To wrap up the old IC:
Night arrived and everyone retreated to their abodes (or to sleep at other Resident's abodes)
and all were in their own bodies, thus
we have no need to know what transpired between now and the start of the new IC. It is a
MAJOR TIME SKIP. Your first IC post should reflect the situation at hand.
We're going into battle.

Greetings people. Here's a recap of what happened before the change in venue.

The characters all came home and went to their apartments. I don't care what (or who) they did before returning to their apartments. It doesn't matter. They're back in their correct bodies. Itum and Trilb offered a wonderful meal to Velocidoctor and he went to his own place. The weapons discussion ended and Thriller and Brit returned to their places. Max came home as well.

If the characters were NOT in their apartments when the Building jumped, they're gone. No discussion.

They've been awoken from their sleep. It's pandemonium. Please take the time to read the prologue, as well as the following post. Base your posts off that.

Combat: the monsters aren't powerful but there are many of them. Hack, slash, shoot, explode, singe, whatever freely. Keep in PG 13, Swith and Prim and Warp. Players can go to town on this one, showcasing their combat abilities. Likewise, the healer group can make up NPCs to tend to. The villages are frightened, some of them are torn up, and all of them are confused and asking how the Building got there.

Make your first posts GOOD. don't drop in just a few lines in the heat of the moment. Craft something epic. If you want to be part of the xeno assault group, post your characters as running beside them as they hack their way through shit.
Players, do not post HERE. This thread will be locked.
