1) The hundred day hunt with Odalya 2) Screw the Elves! 3) We worshiped our living god Urox, because he's too much of a boss to get killed. 4)No preference, so Australi is fine.

Show the ring advice from the last screen in the other game - I want to see what our trickster and magic lady say about us getting wrecked Also I'm going to vote that we Worship Ernalda and take thralls this time around. An Ernalda clan is the only type we haven't seen yet, and I was disappointed it wasn't picked last time.

1. When Odayla did the Hundred-Day Hunt 2. Chinkis Mor, the Stupid Elf 3. Ernalda the Mother Goddess 4. (The Amazing Chan and the) Chan Clan In order to wipe out the elves, we need to think like an elf. We can count on the sneaky bastards never meeting us in a straight-up fight; therefore we must excel in hunting and tracking. Odayla, god of hunters, will lend us the skills to find our foes as they skulk in the woods. Ernalda, the earth goddess, will give us the plant magic to fight them on their own turf. Later on, a shrine to Vinga wouldn't hurt either. Not all Orlanthi will understand the necessity of elvish extermination. Some clans might even be friendly with them! They, of course, will be the first to die.

There's one more! Though it was bugged all to hell in earlier releases. The Uroxi can band together and destroy your clan if you are too chaotic. Well, there's a scene in the game data for it anyway.

Gridlocked posted:So lore questions: He showed up one day worshipping gods nobody had ever heard of(Orlanthi culture is xenophobic as all gently caress, so this is Bad), conquered our homeland & killed the old ruler. Then he declared it the Holy Country, saying it was holy because he ruled it(which is also Bad, because his weird poo poo isn't holy like our good old fashioned Orlanthi gods are). He persecuted anyone who didn't embrace his rule, which includes all the people who fled to Dragon Pass. Also he hijacks other people's bodies to stay alive forever and makes them fight in a tournament for the 'honor' of being his new vessel.

1) When Roitina, lady of dance, first did the Clan-making Dance. 2) Chinkis Mor, the Elf Warlord. 3) None: we retained worship of our Living Deity: Urox, the Storm Bull. 4) Australi Also, make sure to sacrifice to Vinga if you're sending out lots of exploration parties, she's called the Adventuress for a reason.

Gridlocked posted:So lore questions: a) Belintar the God-King (Pharaoh hasn't been used for a few decades now, but the game is old, so what can you do ) is hardly evil. Our guys just don't like him. After the catastrophic events of the previous age (one of which is shown in our clan-making screen when the dragons up and ate the biggest army the world has ever mustered) one day he just swam up on the shores of the Shadowlands (a feat, considering at that point nobody could sail on the seas) and declared the place to be the Holy Country, because he was destined to rule it. The Only Old One, the darkness demi-god that ruled the place objected, the two fought and the God-King won. The people of Heortland, which was one of the lands ruled by the Only Old One objected to this, because Orlanthi are fuckin' contrarians. He killed their High King, then brought him back to life, and a lot of people agreed to follow him, but a lot others stomped their feet and said "nope, doesn't count!". To avoid kinstrife they left Heortland and walked into Dragon Pass, which had been uninhabited for a few decades at that point. Meanwhile, in the Holy Country, the God-King brought unity, prosperity and peace between the various peoples he ruled. But gently caress that, right? b) Stormbull is not a beastman, simple as that. He is not a beast, he is not a man - he is a god. He is a divine being, the Desert Wind that scours the flesh off your bones and fills your lungs with sand. He is violence and hatred and anger. The only the Orlanthi tolerate him is that he is the only god to excel at finding the forces of the Predark (also called Chaos). True, the minotaurs claim their divine ancestry comes from when Stormbull wanted to impress a goddess and so turned his front hooves into hands so he can throw a huge boulder into space, but being descendants of one of the biggest shitheads in the world is hardly a fact to make you like them. Storm bull had just as much of a hand of actually bringing Chaos into the world as all of the other gods, so he's just a massive prick. c) Why not? The Dragon Pass area has been populated by the Vingkotling (and then Heortling) culture since before the Great Darkness of the Godtime. There have been moments, like after the Dragonkill War, when there were no humans around, yes, but beyond that the Orlanthi have been the dominant culture of this region literally since before Time began. So no why wouldn't the ducks have the same culture? They worship the same gods too, after all. The two are related.

Orlanthi are the best fantasy not!Vikings, ducks are the best fantasy non-LOTR race (much like Krogan are the best sci-fi race). My first experience with KoDP was on 4chan, and it was hoot.

Gyre posted:Wait, that was an option? I thought Time only worked because all the gods made the agreement with the spider lady who wove Time together? It's not an option, AtomikKrab is just wrong. Cragspider is a demi-goddess, but she's not a full deity. She is, however, powerful enough that she chose to remain a demi-god and not ascend, since doing so would bind her into the Compromise and make her unable to directly act within the world, just like all of the other gods. So she holds herself back in order to help her followers and enact her plans. There is no god that can exist within Time. The Red Goddess was one for a bit, which broke the Compromise and all of the old gods showed up and fought with her. She won, yes, but what she won was that she was accepted by them as a goddess...which meant she also removed herself from the mortal world by creating the Red Moon. quote:Orlanthi are the best fantasy not!Vikings Which is fair assessment, since they are not vikings in the least. Well, they kind of look like ones in KoDP, but this is case of Your Glorantha Will Vary.
