Voting for S. Stasis is tempting but I'm not comfortable with it for various reasons. Traveling home with the people we can save plus leaving the adults with their freedom seems least bad to me.

I'm ambivalent between scrolls and necklace. The only real reason I'd want to keep the scrolls is to return them to Amok later anyway. CI

Question for Ishamal: Do you have a "well" that is filled with "water"? If not, how are you so intimate with the workings of mine?

I'm not really seeing the advantage of wings that we can never use without four months travel south. I kind of wonder about Amok's motive for sticking them on Enkidel. Who's to say that even is our 'natural' form in the first place? Body shape is fairly alterable at a certain power level (with attendant changes in mindset). Question for Diogenes: Can Enkidel perceive any difference in the way he thinks about the world or other people since he received the wings compared to before? Question for Ishamal: Can you (or whoever) safely remove my wings?

TacoNight posted:It was hinted that they were natural when our body tried to regenerate them after Tanaach. Ish seems to now accept that they are indeed part of us and not some addition. It was also hinted that Enkidel was subconsciously trying to grow wings during his regeneration because that's what he wanted/thought he was. I'm not buying this thing that Amok just gave us what us natural to us. He rewired our body so we'd look like him specifically. His conception of what a nephilim is includes wings and getting worshipped as a god. I'm pretty sure with the right power and circumstance (leaving our body in retcon #1) we could take any shape we wanted to. Different shapes affect our mind differently. Take notice of the "lesser beings" language. This has been used twice now. Our wings of course. And the Laurels, which we created/chose/whatever after we were altered against our will by Amok. After thinking about it tonight I've really turned around on Amok. The guy violated our both our mind and body without asking. Just because he let some info slip that didn't matter to him and just so happened to alter our body in a way that lined up with the desires of some posters we give him a pass? He did everything some folks constantly accuse Ishamal and the Melachim of doing but blatantly and without asking or apologizing. rex monday fucked around with this message at 05:18 on Aug 14, 2016 |

I think we should make it a point to say that we never would have believed it was possible to do it if he hadn't done it first. Give him as much credit as we can without sounding like a dick.

Don't forget one big difference between the geology of Ur and our world. In Ur, most gems come out of the gullets of monsters and giant birds poo poo gold. Not sure how this fits in with an astrophysics based view of the fusion of elements for form heavy metals.

Also, think long term. Enkidel is going to be king of Zepath. If there is a real deal temple in Kavodel, do we think the magistrate that replaces us will be able to defend it? Of the options available I choose 16 rex monday fucked around with this message at 16:36 on Nov 19, 2016 |

TheCog posted:"NO" enkidle screamed, to the people who had saved his rear end and saved him from being outright eliminated by other powers. "MY FEELINGS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHATEVER YOUR AGENDA IS" he wailed, like a child deprived of his favorite toy, to the forces that had saved his home city from utter annihilation, and saved him from his own stupidity when he tried to transplant his soul to a dog. "YOUR INSTRUCTIONS ARE STUPID, BECAUSE THEY DON'T ACCOUNT FOR MY WORSHIP FUELED FEELINGS" he continued to rail uselessly, after being given clear guidance by his mentor that had spent the majority of his time training him for the past 50 years, and without which he would have no ability to manage his stupendous strength and who had promised to fight for him if other powers came to get him, and who had kept him from creating dozens of hunger demons. "I'M SO MAD YOU DON'T TRUST ME" he continued, having directly meddled in the affairs of kings and broken oaths over and over. "WHEN ITS BEEN WHAT, 30 YEARS?!?!" he said, to the immortal beings who measure actions in centuries "I WON'T BREAK THE WORLD drat IT" he said, when he has, in fact in the past come perilously close to doing so. "I DESERVE THIS CAUSE I'M THE BEST!" he said, to the beings trying to judge his ability at making responsible decisions with limited information and his ability to listen to authority. "gently caress YOU gently caress YOU gently caress YOU." he shouted to the heavens, making an impressive case for trusting him with the secrets of the universe and the very nature of the melachim. A

Stand on our head and consult our sense of where we are being observed from.

TheCog posted:Random crazy theory time. I think something like this is pretty close. The Orm was her consort. Like if we had married Snarls. A combination of lover and whatever we did to make Snarls the way he is. I think the feeling we get that he's not smart is just because he's a snake with different kind of mind. I think the Ladysnake that made him was a Nephilim like Enkidel. When the Melachim were sleeping with women and making babies, I don't think they limited it to humans. They might have made mortal-divine hybrids with lots of stuff, especially if they cared for that particular kind of creature deeply. (Five bucks says Azzazel has a goat Nephilim out there somewhere.) So then Orm is her immensely powerful [whatever Snarls is] but "they took her away." Where? I'm guessing Mt. Har. My guess is she went hunger demon, or close to it, or otherwise broke the rules and agreed to leave and be sealed away up the mountain. I think you're dead on about the Orm mindcontrolling the rest of the snake civlization to FIND HER AND BRING HER HOME, causing "snake monsters" out int he wilderness to be a thing.

Just answering every question and backstory reference, no matter how vague or nonsensical, and try to see if we can build a story backwards from there. You should look into Microscope.

John Lee posted:I had a bad dream last night where, to keep the summary short, I was playing a board game based on the thread, and we all had characters but the character of Enkidel was supposed to be a collaborative endeavor, but everyone just kept defaulting to "Eh, whatever you say, John, it's cool," and I was incredibly stressed about being the only guy in charge of Our Friend Enkidel. This is also how I feel. I follow this thread every day. Hell, it's 90% of the reason I check the forums these days. But I don't feel comfortable voting almost ever.
