Gods Of Primal Man RP Thread

[Spider_Kaiju]

"I thank you for the hospitality emperor. You are correct in that I am not of this time, through means I don't fully comprehend I was brought to this time and place." Tatakai responds

@Paul Frank

"You have no need to worry for any invasion from us. Unless, of course, you abuse your people."

@Overlord Finding yourself stronger after the battle with Orcus, after sending your invitation to dance to the neighboring towns, you only get a small number of volunteers, due to the fact that you had attacked not too long before the fight with Orcus. However, your people are obedient, and you find yourself the patron of the arts. Your people begin spending time making music, but something alarming is happening, not enough work is being done.

@Faruel1998 You discover what appears to be many Celtic peoples in the British Isles. At least, something about them seems Celtic, although they aren't exactly that. Seeing as you are new in the world, and the islands, the god Cernunnos decides to give you a visitation as you explore the area. He is in the forest as you fly in the air, and he grows to the size of an ancient tree and bids for you to come down.

 

[Paul_Frank]

"I have no intention to abuse my people, leaders that abuse their people can't expect to prosper or have loyalty after all." Tatakai says as he rises to leave

"I thank you for your hospitality but now that my business here is done I need to return to my people farewell." He says and heads back to his people

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@Overlord Constructing roads and connecting infrastructure is a success. Your skeleton guards manage to protect from raids and keep the order for safe traveling. However, you have something of a mixed reputation. You are seen as an oddly dangerous god. Since most gods are cruel and wicked, you still manage to pull off most of your conversions since the worshipers believe you may defend them with your strength.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

After working out the trading routes with Neptune, I head back to the surface and head home to my city. On the way there, I create roads that connect our cities together.

Once I arrive back at my city, I tell the king about the city to the coast that we are now trading partners with. Once, I finish explaining it to him, I head over to the Combat Academy. I find the Martial Arts Master and the Magic Master talking to each other in the main hall. Once they see me, they bow.

"Welcome back."

I nod.

"What's the progress?"

They rise after bowing.

"We have finished the fusion of the techniques into the ultimate style of combat. We have also taught this technique to the other Quarters."

I smile.

"Excellent."

I imbue the Masters with the ability to see potential in others.

"Use this power I have granted upon you to see the most apt for teaching among the Quarters. Then have them become the teachers while the two of you watch over them. If you see any civilians with a strong aptitude for this style, take them under your personal wing and make them your apprentice. That will be all for now."

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@The Divine Phoenix, you are unable to make your law manifest into reality. A powerful presence in the giant city is blocking your power. Edit- Previous actions: Your attempting to force the giants into a cycle of life and destruction only partially works. They resist your efforts, but some cling to life enough to become ghosts, only to go back to your cycle during the day. At night, they are disembodied spirits.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

I sent emmisaries to govern the newly aquired towns, priests to convert the people to my cult and skeleton guards to protect from raids.

Meanwhile, i sent skeleton ninjas to spy on the neighboring territories, to see if there's any god i would have to deal with,

Also, i start the contruction of roads in-between my towns, to boost trading.

@Overlord, you discover that all of your ninjas find themselves annihilated by the local gods of the regional area.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@Totadileplayz

The Oni King listens to you, attempting to understand what you're saying.

 

[The_Divine_Phoenix]

Enoch decides to return to his city, flying away from the giants city and then teleporting away.

Enoch's people would continue expanding, somewhat more aggressively now, they would attempt to convert anyone in the surrounding radius of the city to followers of Enoch. The city would expand as much as it can, and smaller townships would begin to be established on islands and other areas further away. Work on primitive guns would also begin at the behest of Enoch. The fighters would have finished learning their style, magic and physicality combined into a fighting style named "Golden Law" in Enoch's honor.

Enoch decides to make a new proclamation to aid in the expansion of his lands. The proclamation goes as follows "My followers voices shall be heard and convince all those who have not yet accepted Enoch's light" This would affect every one of his people, allowing them to easily convince others to join, to a supernatural degree of manipulation.

His Bringers of Law were overseeing the creation of new townships, as well as some of them overseeing the expansion of Enoch's lands.

 

[Paul_Frank]

Tatakai and his men return to the city and notes that nothing important has happened in the time he was gone.

"Now that we have prepared for a while it's time to head out and acquire more resources."

In order to expand and gain new technology we need more land. That Emperor's kingdom is off-limits as of now.

Using his domain to locate people while empowering his men he begins traveling west, to conquer any possible cities nearby.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

((Who have I missed?))

 

[Totadileplayz]

"Killing only ends the life of the other, it doesn't get them to see your point of view, it doesn't make them see how you want to see them. No, I suspect you're something else, and simply put up a guise of honor. Not a good one mind you, but you kill those that offer you suggestions when they offer them. So, I'll be brief. There are three main points. Killing those that disagree with you is inherently unstable, it makes you viewed as a tyrant by others, for very good reason, cause your own followers to work for you out of fear, and not respect, and as a result make gods more easily manipulate your own followers to kill you, and take your own land. Second, Messengers should never be killed due to the actions of those that sent thim, this shows disrespect to the other gods, and makes them be motivated to go to war with you, and your people. Needless to say you're awful as a team mate, ally, and a leader as a result. Finally, There is simply a more effective way of going about things, you might need to tailor your approach to the specific god in question, but ultimately it's better to have allies then enemies. You don't even need to go against your own scruples if you don't want to, simply stand your ground, and be more considerate in your words and actions, and you'll have more power. Killing you gives me nothing, but an ally makes all the difference. But honestly, You need to recognize who you are right now, You're not honorable, you couldn't be further away from it, since you don't even protect your own not really. You put your own pantheon in danger just by living in it, as you're too reckless and thoughtless, at best your a thug and a tyrant. Listen to them or don't, but never say you have honor again, unless you're willing to live by them. " Nur replied with a sort of disdain in his voice.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

The Oni King steps to his feet and bows. "I see now the error of my ways. I cannot in good faith stay with my own people so long as I am disgraced."

 

[Totadileplayz]

The Oni King steps to his feet and bows. "I see now the error of my ways. I cannot in good faith stay with my own people so long as I am disgraced."

"Fudge it, Oni King is your name only the Oni King or do you have a more personal name? If you seek to alter your ways, I do know about honor, and I could teach you, and guide you to be what you uttered yourself to be. Every man that shows true honor is different just like every man is different, but ultimately each person that seeks it must know similar things before they can practice it. "

"I am Shuten Doji". . . The Oni King responded. "I will endeavor to serve you."

 

[Totadileplayz]

"No you won't. The one thing I want from you, and all that join my pantheon. Are for them to think for themselves. We are all people. Gods more specifically, but we all should have desires and wants. And we should pursue them if we have them. I am not a man that sees himself as superior to other gods. Speaking of which. I think your own pantheon should speak up give their own thoughts on the matter." Nur says calling them over.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

Turn 2:

Suddenly, the gods all fall into a deep sleep. Living in their dreams, they find themselves in a confined but very pleasant place in their territory. Avalon and the Realms of Myth are cut off from the world. Over time, the gods are still respected and worshiped, due to the fact that their priests can channel their domains and carry out their will on Earth.

(Those reaching out for diplomatic ties can consider themselves fortunate, their kingdoms are allied with their neighbors.) Over the two millenia that pass, the gods finally awaken. When they do, the world is an entirely different place. The world is placed into the technology of the Medieval Time period, with some places being very advanced in gun powder.

As you awaken, you discover that all of your civilizations are highly prosperous compared to how they were in their beginning.

 

[PsychoWarper]

"Interesting" Nakiri says as he uses magic to hide himself and wander around his city checking out how it has changed.

 

[The_Divine_Phoenix]

Enoch awakes and finds himself sitting upon his throne.

He decides to fly around his territories, see how the cycle has progressed and how his civilization has grown.

 

[Overlord775]

I had just creared 30k more skeletons with weapons and 3 more Royal Hassans, while blessing all 8 with the dominion over of War and Armies, with the intention to prepare an invasion, but then i fell asleep.

After the two thousands years of being in that nice, but rather claustrophobic place, i finally wake up.

What the fu*k was that ? How ? WHY ?!

I think very confused, but i immitiadly collect myself and call my Royals Hassans to me.

"I am finally back from my long slumber, tell me what happened during my absence."

Is my request to them.

 

[Paul_Frank]

Tatakai's eyes open, finding himself on an intricately made throne

That's new, a long time has passed I wager, I should check on things.

"How have things progressed so far?" He asks one of his people

"Since you have slumbered we have conquered a fair amount of the territory in the west. You have been called the Emperor of the West by some." The follower responds

The follower continues giving a report, detailing how they have advanced with the manufacturing of gunpowder and iron tools, even managing to produce cannons and primitive firearms.

"Very good, has the military training been going well?"

"Yes sire, as you can see, the capital's defenses have been upgraded as well. The people in your territory are also helping our manufacturing."

Tatakai nods and heads off to check on all his people before returning to the capital.

[Kiryu2012]

Giving a stretch as he woke up, Discord spread his wings and took to the air. Soaring above his territory, the draconequus surveyed his surroundings as he flew through the sky.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@NostalgiaTrip

@The Smashor

A brilliant flash of light struck across the sky. . . This Human being was one of the last survivors of the Apocalypse of Man. Snatched up from alien mind flayers by a strange flash of light, he finds himself with the other protagonists. "You are the children of Men." "Children of Men, witness the corruption of the Unclean." Suddenly, in front of all of you, you all see a window open over the planet Earth. Massive tentacled eye creatures rip and tear entire cities apart, Humans are hunted for sport and amusement by mind flayers, and eventually, when the strange abominations are done with the world, they leave it as a lifeless husk, with the inhabitants, dead, transformed into ugly monstrosities, or WORSE. It is you that must have your loved ones, your friends and your neighbors. I have give you immortality, and the powers of a god!" "Go now. To the distant past. Go now to lead the people of your ancestry!" "I ____" Suddenly the massive eye is cut off from his or her speech. And a giant shadow of darkness somehow blacker than mid night covers the whole group." For a tiny moment you are all covered in a sense of hopelessness and despair from the darkness, until another brilliant flash of light sends you careening into a small crater outside what will be your capital city. You don't understand immediately what has happened, but you seem to have been downloaded with knowledge about your powers and abilities. You were there with the others, as they were sent down to the Earth in the distant past, however, something was different about you. Due to the fact that the Eye of the Universe was cut off mid-sentence as he she or it was protecting you, you did not awaken until millenia later.

 

[NostalgiaTrip]

I wake up to find a cluster of people around my form. My body... is like that of stone. It restricts me... but with a flare of my power it is renewed. I draw in the heat that emanates from the sun to rejuvinate my weak form.

"Praised be you!" The cleric before me bows to the ground, "We have waited years for you... and now you are here."

I say nothing as I stare at him, attempting to understand what is going on. Was I not told that I would end up in pre-history? Then why does it look like I am in the Middle Ages? That is something that I would have to look in.

"Who are you." I ask, my voice tired and weak, though none of it shows on my form, "I find that my knowledge is lacking."

The cleric bows once more, "I am he who has been tasked with watching over you, for the day that you would awaken."

"Just you?" I find my anger rising, "I would expect there to be more for when I awoke."

A frown comes across the face of the man, "The people... they believe you to be just a myth."

Well ain't that a kick in the gut. "Then let us teach them the folly of their thinking."

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@The Divine Phoenix Your nation is one of the most powerful nations in the world. With your Masurak friends, you are one of the premier regional powers of the West, meaning the Americas. You have around four million subjects and worshipers in your kingdom altogether, with your people fervently attempting to gain more worshipers all the time, it's hard to imagine that you were once a small little city state with only ten thousand inhabitants.

@Overlord With your nation around 600,000 soldiers strong, you are one of the most powerful kingdoms in Europe, and you control the whole of Italy. Your neighboring gods are understandably jealous, but some of them are now your enemies, only kept from directly fighting with your people due to the fact that many seemed to have suffered the same fate as slumbering for two thousand years along with you. You seem to have developed a nation with high cultural values, and a population of two and a half million inhabitants.

@Paul Frank Your lone city state has now grown to seven cities, not including all the towns and villages in your kingdom. Your kingdom is around the same size as your eastern neighbor, the Emperor's, with around four million inhabitants.

@Everyone All of your nation's have access to Late Middle Ages technology, and some of you @Paul Frank, @The Divine Phoenix in particular, but not only, have access to fire arms and cannon. The average country has at least two million inhabitants for a PC god's territory, which is still very large for a nation in these times.

 

[NostalgiaTrip]

The country that I find myself in is not one for the faint of heart. The people suffer and the land does not give freely. It is good that I should appear here.

My first act as god is to expedite the growth of agriculture and fertility. I've also reduced the heat level of the lands so that the crops could flourish.

"My lord... we must talk with you about the animals that attack us." The high-priest speaks from his humbled position below me. Yes... as I do not have a throne that I may sit upon, I now sit on the people until they can make me a throne fit for my glory.

"Worry not about such things. You live upon my lands... and as such you shall be protected from the wild animals that come through here."

The man gives a strained smile, "T-thank you my lord."

"Think nothing of it. Now tell the people to work faster. I have much to do and so little time to get it all done." I direct my attention to some of the learned men, "You... you must learn all that you can about the element of fire. I wish to bring this country to the very top. We will unite all the lands under my banner."

 

[The_Smashor]

"Geez, my head. That whatever-it-was hit me so hard I forgot what my freaking na-"

I suddenly turn and see myself in a church. I notice a massive number of pictures behind he, with one noteworthy human-shaped gap. I look towards the door, seeing a huge number of people, with an old guy seemingly dressed as what looked like a priest.

"He has awakened. Our god has awakened! Huzzah!"

"Little old me? A god? Surely you gestin'."

Everyone is completely scilent.

"Right, I'm in the past." I think. "How come I can remember the Kirby Anime but not my own name?"

I turn to my people. "I guess you don't get that reference. Anyways, if you beleive me to be a god, then I suppose that I am one! And-"

I'm interuppted by the growling of my own stomach.

"And I hunger!"

Suddenly, I hear a thunk on the ground. I look to the ground and see an apple, and an apple-shaped gap in the pictures. The old priest speaks once more.

"Our god is true! Look as he turns pictures into reality! He even did this to himself, you all saw it with your own eyes."

"By the way," I ask, "Do you guys do that human sacrifice thing?"

"Yes. We sacrifice one citizen daily to your great glor-"

"Alright, none of that! No sacrifices or any nonsense like that. I have a plan. We will unite all peoples under me, and we will prepare for the future!"

"Yeah, that sounds pretty good..." I think

"How do you intend on accomplishing this, my lord?"

"Uhhh, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it! What is the state of our military? We'll need to defend ourselves, after all."

A sword comes out of the wall from a picture and lands in my hand.

"We will unite this world in peace! Hopefully..."

Everyone cheers.

"I'm lucky they hyped me up so much..." I think

 

[Overlord775]

@Overlord With your nation around 600,000 soldiers strong, you are one of the most powerful kingdoms in Europe, and you control the whole of Italy. Your neighboring gods are understandably jealous, but some of them are now your enemies, only kept from directly fighting with your people due to the fact that many seemed to have suffered the same fate as slumbering for two thousand years along with you.

Oh MYSELF, they really went down to get shit done while i was away.

"Congratulations my Royal Hassan, your achivements are imppressive, you truly have done well."

I congratulate them.

"Anyway, now that all gods are back from the nap, we're gonna have a lot more work to do, so i expect the same high level of compency for the future."

I incite them.

After, i sent them to do whatever they want, partying or whatever, in the meanwhile, i send messangers to the neighboring gods that don't hate my ribs, who should be able to get results since my realm has becomed a high cultural nation for some reason, probably bone meal helping the growth.

The idea behind this move is to try gain some allies, so i don0t have to face against multiple gods alone.

 

[DragonEmperor23]

I open my eyes.

Ah, such a beautiful sight.

My city has grown several times larger, and I can sense temples made in worship of my glory in several other cities that have been built.

As I fly through my city, I notice that the Combat Academy has gotten larger and I see several groups of children training in their grounds.

This is simply delightful. But I can not be complacent. Not when my people have been working so hard. I should create more trading routes and spread Justice

I head inland at high speeds to find another god or city to talk to.

 

[The_Divine_Phoenix]

"Impressive, my society has grown quite a bit." Enoch states to himself.

"I believe now is the time to conquer those insolent giants." Enoch states to himself, he begins gathering his army, as generations have passed, their grasp of magic too, has grown to a far greater level. The armies would be lead by Bringers of Law. He begins sending them forth to engage the giants, armed with the latest in weaponry and magic.

The builders and inventors are ordered to continue developing, specifically looking towards the development of steam power and eventually electricity.

Trade continues with those who would trade with Enoch's people, as does expansion of course, spreading his people's dominion of the ocean further, sending ships to explore new areas and perhaps contact new civilizations on other sides of the world.

Enoch decides that he will also enact a proclamation, both for the future and the aid of his society. The proclamation goes as follows: "Enoch is the only god of this land, before him other gods shall become weak.", its purpose is to weaken any god that attempts to invade any territory consider Enoch's own, protecting both his people and himself.

 

[Paul_Frank]

Tatakai notes the advancement in technology

"Guns, cannons, better metalworking. Very good progress." He says to himself

Well now that we have taken a good portion of the West and the neighbors have a good portion of the East I guess I'll expand south next.

Tatakai sends a large force, armed with their most advanced equipment to expand to territory in the south, using his domains to increase their effectiveness in conflict and with arms.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

((Don't worry I will post later today.))

 

[The_Smashor]

[I put something here and then I accidentally closed the tab and for some reason the "Do you want to close" thing didn't come up. I'm furious.]

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

@PsychoWarper

A vast army of Tekean soldiers and knights have been spotted just outside your border lands. They seem to be headed by the Dark Childe. The invaders are not only Human and magicians, but also dragons.

 

[PsychoWarper]

"Tsk... of course those fools would come back" Nakiri says with anger as the army begins to feel his wrath as Tornados and Earthquakes befall them.

 

[Spider_Kaiju]

The Earthquakes and tornadoes are intercepted by an albino goddess riding a great white lion. As she rides she has her wand at the ready.

 

[PsychoWarper]

[How exactly does one intercept an earthquake?]

 

[NostalgiaTrip]

[If I may intercept here PsychoWarper. An Earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the earth, which releases seismic waves. So one way is to create an equal force in waves to counteract the shaking... though that would take a lot of power.]

 

[PsychoWarper]

[Well wouldnt releasing that amount of energy mess up the army itself? Since youd be releasing the energy in the middle of the army]

 

[NostalgiaTrip]

[Well wouldnt releasing that amount of energy mess up the army itself? Since youd be releasing the energy in the middle of the army]

[Not if the goal is to simply stop the shaking. Mind you, though, if the god who started the earthquakes were to suddenly stop his own seismic waves... well then you would be at risk of doing more damage in your attempt to stop something that was suddenly no longer there. Hope that makes sense]
