The Amber Age: Pantheon Edition (Collaborative)

[X] Reach Out (1 DE)

Faith death spirit sounds more appealing than fear.

Also faith genius loci just makes more sense to me than fear.
 
To kill, cause fear and go Fear Spirit?

Grab lots of DE quick and set ourselves up right away. Fear Spirits can rapidly snowball if played right.

Isn't it unsustainable? Gods who rule by fear have typically been supplanted by ones that promise good things historically. The rare exceptions might be Mesopotamia and.... Ancient Greece?

"ALL THINGS THAT ARE, ARE OURS. BUT WE MUST CARE. FOR IF WE DO NOT CARE, WE DO NOT EXIST. IF WE DO NOT EXIST, THEN THERE IS NOTHING BUT BLIND OBLIVION. AND EVEN OBLIVION MUST END SOMEDAY. LORD, WILL YOU GRANT ME JUST A LITTLE TIME? FOR THE PROPER BALANCE OF THINGS. TO RETURN WHAT WAS GIVEN. FOR THE SAKE OF PRISONERS AND THE FLIGHT OF BIRDS.

LORD, WHAT CAN THE HARVEST HOPE FOR, IF NOT FOR THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?"
― Terry Pratchett, Reaper Man

That bolded section is definitely going to be my guiding philosophy for this quest, and I certainly hope others will want to play the kind friend at the end of the road as well.

Wise words from the glorious madman who forged a sword from a meteorite when he was knighted.

Discworld's Death is an example we all must strive for.

Well, might not be able to start out with making cool animal monsters, but I would at least prefer to not be a super asshole spirit.
 
*See's SV once again going the white knight route.
People voted for evil death mountain last turn and not to follow though with it. :rolleyes:
If you would like a story about a fear god, I can recommend you an excellent tale of a crazy motherfucker with too many domains.

Personally I find some questers desire to only ever play villains and to look down upon those who want to play heroes to be annoying. There is nothing in the previous vote that is inherently evil, unless you view death itself as evil.

And even if you do view death as evil, like me, we that doesn't necessarily mean we have to be evil... as a death god, we COULD try to save people from the cruel fate of oblivion. Maybe reincarnation with memories intact, or just 'graduating' to a different, possibly better, form. Maybe an ageless volcanic ash entity (I wanted to say golem, but that conjures the image of something bulky and stupid, whereas they would retain their intelligence and have the agility of a morphing being of ash).
