Mythology Reborn: Discussion Thread

Yeah, there needs to be moonlight, or the moon at least needs to be up :). Maybe when the series progresses she can use it during the day too.

Also I have a question, can the hosts see their god? I mean, can they know whether their spirit is smiling or frowning, ect.? Or can they only hear their voice?

I didn't catch that when I signed you up. That actually sounds kind of limiting. How about this; your powers still work during the day, but only at half-strength. (Personally, I think that makes sense, because the moon is technically still there, (or at least in orbit,) 24/7; we just can't see it until night time. Of course, this would be up to you.

I'd imagine they would have a pretty good mental image of their God in their heads, so yeah, sure.

Actually the moon, at least if it's full or near full, can be seen during the day. It depends on atmospheric conditions.

If Hellfire and or the GM really wants to complicate thing you can adjust for phase too with "normal" being half-moon and it growing weaker or stronger as it waxes or wanes. But that might be getting too complicated.

@Hellfire: The impression I get is that you can make material form out of moonlight kind of like Green Lantern only without the ring and silvery instead of green? Do I have that right?

Hmm, that's pretty much it. That's actually a really good comparison :). And you guys are right. She is really weak compared to the others.

I am sooooooooo sorry for disappearing out of nowhere. I was playing at a concert in Alberta, Georgia last week and I completely forgot to tell you guys about it.

My bad...

How behind am I?

Don't worry about it. There' actually an easy way to get caught up. Setsuko and several others are meeting on a rooftop, deciding whether or not to raid a giant tower that appeared out of nowhere. Just have your character notice them, climb on the rooftop to meet them, ask the other characters to fill you in, and go from there.

Hey guys,

Junior year is coming up for me, and between IB, a crappy boss, college applications, and a new addition my family, I won’t be on the internet for days, or maybe even weeks. I don’t want to mess up this forum with my disappearances, so I’m sorry to say I’m going to have to quit. Think whatever you want of me, I know I deserve it...

Farewell, Hellfire

There;s also a big, weird forest that's also appeared out of nowhere.

Could you art least do a farewell post in game? But completely understandable, real life must take precedence.

Aaaand we have our first PC supervillain. Betcha all thought it was gonna be me didn't you?

To be fair, it was your God that was morally dubious; your host actually seems like a fairly Nice Guy. Now Jade, on the other hand...

I wonder if the Hail Hydra meme gives Lotan more power.

I'm basically trying to play Loki as a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds Anti-Villain while George is, I suppose, a Pragmatic Hero Anti-Hero although that's less clear to me, maybe he's more the Unscrupulous Hero type, haven't completely decided. Put them together and you get Ambiguously Evil.

Yeah, that's a lot of tropes ain't it?

If you want George to be an Anti-hero of any sort, then you'll to be less subtle about it. He still seems like a Nice Guy to me. (Although I'm not saying you should start punting puppies either. That is, unless you really want to...)

He's kind of writing himself at this point.

Ten bucks says Loki goes all Leroy Jenkins on the infiltration job and gets everyone in trouble. XD

I get the sinking feeling that New Olympus is going to be spending a lot of tax money on rebuilding in the future.

That would be more Thor's style. Loki's more like the party rogue.

You mean that when he dies, the building resets and a new character takes his place?

Everyone who wants Jack and Mack to be resurrected raise your hand!

I'm raising my hand so f@#king hard right now.

I'm surprised that they turned out to be regular cops.

Please; I'm not going to turn every single NPC into a God. No reason to.

That said, I just thought of a way to bring back Jack and Mack besides being Jade's braindead servants, so you can expect to see them pop up again soon enough.

Hey it's your own fault for making them so odd and interesting.

On another subject I know our gods can talk to each other but can they do so across a distance? Because if so it would be like having divine walkie-talkies.

Sure, but only if you're aware of the God you're trying to talk to first. If you weren't aware, all you'd get is divine air.

...is that a fart joke?
