"So then, scribe; what do you say to that?"

................

...........really?

First, you were planning a black-and-white scenario with no third options from the very beginning? Either all humans essentially die, to The Magic Goes Away? Uh...lack of moral complexity, much?

Second, you basically make it so we are basically forced to kill off one of our two characters (either the god/goddess or the human)? Why would I sign up for an RP that forced me to do that at all? If I kill off any character(s), it's because I want to.

As for what I say to that, I'm going to ask one simple question: Is Wyona/Minerva an Unreliable Expositor? Because if she isn't...then you managed to achieve the record of killing my interest in this RP in a single post. So...congratulations?

[up]What? No, I didn't mean that at all. These two options are the only ones that Minerva knows of, meaning that in a way, she is an Unreliable Expositor. There are other options available. However, those are up for you the players to discover as you go throughout the RP. Honestly, I was half-expecting your character to say that they wouldn't stand for this, and that they'd find a third option themselves.

I was planning something like that, but I didn't want to build that up only for it turn out as pointless hope.

Oh, and for the record, the reason Nidaba took direct possession is that she hasn't caught on to the fact that she could communicate telepathically with other gods yet. tongue

[up]Trust me, it's not hopeless. You can find a third option if you want to; same with the other players. The RP's also fairly open-ended, so there's likely multiple solutions you and the others can find. But they're not going to just be handed to you.

Until some of these "other options" are discovered, when the two initial ones are revealed, can we choose— have our characters do so— which option to support?

[up]Go nuts, but you don't really have to settle on anything if you don't want to. And your characters are free to come up with additional options on their own if you so choose, though you probably won't be able to come up with much else right now.

@thismaboomstick: Sorry, but you might have to change your post. It wasn't you that the tentacle pulled over the bridge; it was the old man that I introduced earlier. However, if you want to be pulled under the bridge, I'm sure I can arrange something.

Ah, sorry, misread that. I'll change it.

Since I am still on the other side, would it be alright if Scylla did pull me down? Also, could I give Scylla octopus diseases? Thanks.

[up]Yes about being pulled down. Also yes about the octopus diseases, but only if you can give exact names for these diseases and are sure of what they're supposed to do, because according to your Character Sheet, you can't just make diseases up just yet.

Good luck with the diseases because Scylla is woman/dog/octopus.

@Players still on 'Streets of New Olympus': Do you still want to talk amongst yourselves, or do you want me to just move things along? Just let me know.

Just an FYI: Sorry about not posting for a whole day, but my day was basically shot. Come morning though, I'll get right to putting up another big update; you'll just have to wait a bit longer, is all.

I'm going to hold off on my next post until some other people post. No sense in making this just me-you-me-you.
