/[Muse-musings] ponders I wonder how good an offering to the new firepupygod a depowered shard will be.
KIПG DΛD
Dia happens to have one very safely hidden because he doesn't want any of the monarchs to have it.
KIПG DΛD
But firepuppy is a very strong symbol of what he has felt all along...that there is another path that doesn't involve letting the void take everything or dooming everything to no rebirth ever if they stop
danael
Firepuppy> /eats it--vomits
KIПG DΛD
the Void. This is a kind of rebirth that doesn't require either of those things and was brought about shardbearers themselves.
KIПG DΛD
Oh gods, puppy no! don't eat it!
KIПG DΛD
makes him a nice sparkly collar with it
hellpet
What's to stop a monarch/god from just eating a tiny, new god and take the shard for themselves?
KIПG DΛD
yeah, that is part of my worry. would it make him stronger or will it make him more of a target?
KIПG DΛD
because we don't want to make him more of a target than he already is!
KIПG DΛD
honestly, I am kind of afraid to do anything regarding the new god because of all the death hints the mods are dropping. Losing fire once was discouraging enough, but putting effort into it again just to lost
KIПG DΛD
it again? Yeah... rubs head
KIПG DΛD
This is one of the times I wish my character had more experience with magic instead of just being a fighter. Magic research is not something he can really help with.
KIПG DΛD
He's best at trying to keep people from killing each other and maybe doing some info gathering, but he's not really that good at that either. secrets, what are keeping secrets? LOL!
KIПG DΛD
for beings made of magic, unless they are a caster or could be a caster, servants can't do a whole lot tied to magic research.
KIПG DΛD
the new god could really do one of two things for Dia. Refocus him and be proof that his direction and goals are the right ones or basically discourage him completely and finally make him start giving up
KIПG DΛD
and I REALLY don't want it to be the latter
KIПG DΛD
but if he dies quickly...that is what is it going to be
KIПG DΛD
though, at least Dia does have a good support network here so he is less likely to keep breaking. He might just have a period where he feels really down and then manages to pull himself out of it again.
KIПG DΛD
He does tend to do that...emotional guy is emotional
danael
Lancer stares at the puppy fire god
KIПG DΛD
He tends to do a lot of stuff with waaaay too much emotion
danael
Sighs and walks away, feeling deflated
KIПG DΛD
snicker
danael
Cu would be on the fence for real.
danael
While it's definitely a god, it's still... Unnervingly tiny and fragile.
danael
He'd be like, "OK, hide out for awhile and wait for your worshipers to get you up to snuff."
danael
All anyone hears is, "Bark bark. Arf. Bark bark"
KIПG DΛD
yes, Dia's need to protect would go into massive overdrive. hell, he might try to find a way to offer his shard to the little guy if it would help make him stronger faster...
Spooky Thoughts
I thiiiiink depowered shards have nothing special about them? Like they're just shiny rocks and the monarchs dont even particularly care about them (thinking)
KIПG DΛD
then why do they want us to gather shards from people when we kill them? or do they not depower like when people drop? I have always been fuzzy about that
danael
they only depower if the person is dropped, yeah
KIПG DΛD
and never bothered to ask because HA Dia killing someone for their shard is not likely to ever happen.
Spooky Thoughts
They dont depower if you KILL the person, only if someone drops
KIПG DΛD
Ah, that would make more sense then.
danael
what i wonder is if after a third death, does someone's shard depower when they become the shuck's slave
KIПG DΛD
someone ask John....I mean...
danael
well the shuck ate john's shard
KIПG DΛD
He will just cry on Gil's shoulder and get tears all over his armor. Sorry King-sama
danael
which makes me wonder if the white hart and shuck are just shard-bearer that stole JUST THAT MANY shards
danael
shard-bearers^
KIПG DΛD
yeah, that is true. John got to bypass three deaths and went straight to 'serve the shuck'
danael
god lucky him
KIПG DΛD
I dunno how lucky it was. I mean, he did cut his own arm off as an offering...
danael
couldn't he have regrown it
KIПG DΛD
I believe he could yes. I don't know a lot about his canon, but it still hurt like heck!
KIПG DΛD
Sorry your knight is so embarrassly emotional...
KIПG DΛD
yeah, we kind of figured that out. :-) I should probably think of something else unless I actually want to have him offer his shard this soon. LOL
priestesses
Mer's going to leave him crispy jerky and puppy toys
KIПG DΛD
LOL! They could! Maybe he can get something protective made for firepuppygod. Normal spells might not help against other gods, but against more human opponents...
KIПG DΛD
I am half tempted to have him leave his fire ring since it is of no use to him now, but what would a puppy do with a ring besides eat it? LOL
