They remind me a little bit of the Children of Ma-O on Acqua as both share simerler goals, to cause as much trouble as they can. Go to Comment

The soul of the new Paragon's host will remain in that body until death. They will have no autonomy and be completely subject to the Paragon's will, but for the rest of their (probably brief) life they have the honor of sharing a body with the original Paragon. Go to Comment

Awesome, but I have one question:

What happens to the soul of the person who kills the Paragon? If their soul ends up being pushed out by the current Paragon's soul, there really is no motivation to killing the Paragon. Go to Comment

Wulfhere's comment on 2007-04-06 12:55 PM
This is a well-thought out cult, working in the background to bring chaos and death. I like the believable details and the interations with the continent's other religions.

It's hard to produce a credible cult of murderous and bloody-handed chaos-worshippers. Despite the many violent sects the world has seen, few were truly monstrous: With the exception of small groups of fools, led by madmen, even the most wicked of cults tends to justify their actions in terms of good and justice.

I really liked the major events and battles timeline. While some of it might be a bit difficult to absorb into a game, the sub is worth its weight just for the ability to have a bulleted history that is immensely useable. Go to Comment

Now, that was _some_ long piece! I admit to be overwhelmed by all the battles, places and people, but that is to be expected by a historical tractate. I also wonder how that classless society looked in the end, but that's nothing major.

All in all, solid work. Go to Comment

Wow. That was a long read and I've not gotten into any of the factions. I love that Vedast has made an appearance and would have to have seen a link back to him somewhere.

And all this time I thought Communists were supposed to be atheists. Go to Comment

I have yet to read the 4 religious orders, but the submission stands completely on its own without them. I like it. Go to Comment

Finally up! The last faction should be added in the next few days. I just wanted to make sure the main sub got up for the quest deadline. Go to Comment

I added the Zephyrous Icon to the Sectarian Wars freetext. St. Vedast himself will get his own sub in due time. Go to Comment

Dozus's comment on 2007-03-30 10:25 PM
In a way, the Paragon chooses its own successor; free will for the Paragon's assassin is somewhat doubtful. There is a hint of infernal intervention.

It's a bit like the Chinese Mandate of Heaven concept. If the Paragon's host becomes weak, another will arise and take its place. And the Paragon's soul, being effectively immortal until Vautu arises, takes precedence over other life. Go to Comment

Murometz's comment on 2007-04-06 10:52 AM


I am voting on this because Dozus is too kind with the co-authorship stuff.



This is PURELY Master Dozus' vision. I marvelled at this labyrinthine expose of religion, six months ago, when he first introduced me to this world, and I still marvel at it now!



Incredible scope and majesty!



The only thing I can truly say I did, was log approximately 14-16 hours of total time in chat with Dozus, discussing his unique vision. :)



so, I will vote, and if anyone has a problem with that, I can meet you in the schoolyard after class and pummel you!

Ah, a Magnus Opus indeed. As with Scras I'll need a bit of time to dig into this one.

Well done! Go to Comment

Wulfhere's comment on 2007-04-06 12:58 PM
This is impressive. A panoramic overview of a religious conflict that sweeps a continent, with politics and religious strife, madmen and murder, prophets and hypocrites.

I wish that I'd written it. Go to Comment

A pretty unique item, not overpowering, yet still of a decent impact on history. Good work. Go to Comment

Exactly what I feel with many Items around here - not exactly willing to employ them in a game world directly, but having a great story that just begs to be used even on its own, as a fairy tale, legend, or even tavern talk. Go to Comment
