Excellent, a chance to break from the past in the form of betraying our ideals. I look forward to the inevitable plot point where our supposed father returns from death and swears revenge. Voting A because that guy was a jerk anyway.

Can we get the OP updated with this album if this is going to be the preferred way of voting? Right now, it has Diogines posted:Welcome to Paradise Lost: Clash of the Heavens, a Chose Your Own Adventure style game. The format of the game is simple.

HiHo ChiRho posted:For me we were training to be a priest of Asherah for a reason. We were given the chance to run away from that for a reason. I want to know who or what our father is. There is more to the religions here than just fish god/leviathan and El being a Yahweh analogue. Following Tudiyah into the city appears to be the best way to fulfill that goal for now. I have to agree. Besides, Asherah is just a lovely god to choose; it's a god of punishment and no reward, and it's pretty clearly not as strong as El. Besides, we've got an actual friend now

There's no reason we can't have fun quote:OPTION B Yes! But, you will be a bit more... careful to avoid getting lost. You will stay close to the camp and force Danal to not run off if he tries to.

Diogenes, if we do not take the flint and iron, do we know other ways to start a fire? Rubbing sticks together + tinder, etc? If we don't, I'd strongly recommend taking the flint. Alternately, the stone knife. We can make our own bow and arrows if necessary, but sharp edges and fire is a big deal. Also, how stony is the geography here? Is it possible for us to find slate or other similar rock?

Diogines posted:You are aware of what a fire drill is, they used them in Athar, but you have never personally started a fire with one. You could try to guess along at it. You are not confident you know how. Aw heck. Take the flint I suppose. we can always make a crude wooden spear by sharpening a branch on a rock, then hardening the tip in a fire.

So, I just realized that we're assuming that this is a test or a trap because of our own, ooc experiences with mythology. The morality here might be different. Diogenes, are there any stories that we've heard about Melachim or Demons acting in this way? Are there Melachim who pretend to be the helpless in need of help, or demons? In what way does the outcome usually go?

Azzazel wants Snarls because of our sentiment towards him, right? Well, what do we have that's sentimental for us? Memories. We can offer a memory to him, one that's important, but not too important. Say, the memory of collecting snails for our "father" or one of going fishing with our uncle.

Angela Christine posted:Drink our own piss. Snarls' piss too, if we can get it. Our own piss will will go dark and concentrated pretty quickly, but since Snarls has infinite water at his disposal his piss should be pretty clear all the way through. Snarls is a smart dog, we should be able to explain to him that we want him to piss in our mouth. Carry this secret to our grave. I was waiting until the "drink our own pee" strategy appeared but drinking Snarls' pee is a wrinkle I didn't expect

Is this water the water that snarls senses? Is there another source nearby? Voting that we NOT eat or drink anything given for snarls; I expect it to dry up the moment we try.

Vavrek posted:I like this. I want us to have an offering which impresses everyone. Since different groups are impressed by different things (effort, monetary value, etc.), this sets our challenge a bit higher. That's actually a good point. I get the feeling that we only get one choice really, but that might not be the case. Diogenes, would it be frowned upon to make more than one offering for sacrifice? Or would that be seen as ostentatious?

Diogines posted:According to your religious education, the only thing you could "do" to obtain divine aid is to be a true believer, suitably virtuous and ask for help. Making a sacrifice might help to draw attention, however. Throw a pearl onto the alter and scream "Ninja Vanish!" If you are pure of heart, El will transform it into a smoke bomb so that you can disappear
