As dust swirls in the winds a voice is heard
Sleep, the children play. They prepare offerings for the Earth and the Sky. Flesh and bones, warm fires and much talking. Seeds have been planted. Seeds which they will nourish.
And with this the god-modding endeth
Slow creeping doom? Niiiice.
could someone please explain to me what god modding is and why it bothers people so much? I'm kind of new at this.

Controlling other people's threads, being untouchable, etc...
That's why I spoke for the earth and Sky and didn't try to pretend to be them. Thin line.

I was just playing in character, I dont think I changed anybodya thread, sept the tribble gates heh fun. KC by mistake gave me unlimited power for a while a few days back. So I let it go as everyone was getting upset and it is no fun if you can do anything. I did make this niffty staff. While it cant do everything it can do alot. I cant help if a Demon lord was the first to think of makeing items of power...blame orcus

So, I don't quite understand what's going on. Did a goddess possess Lynora-Jill or something?
No, lynora-Jill is the goddess. She just doesn't know it. When the Goddess of Dangerous Knowledge has ticked off too many people, she goes away for awhile leaving a sort of dummy personality behind. Which is lynora-Jill. The goddess knows everything lynora-Jill does, but lynora-Jill is totally unaware of anything the goddess does. The goddess is chaotic evil, lynora-Jill is neutral good. Basically I set up a sort of Jekyl and Hyde situation.

We have three yeahs...not exactly a quorum. Raik! I feel we should wait for more of the Brethren.
Is this call to war impetuous? True, the earth calls, but the Winds will blow, war or no war, victory or defeat. Is it not our call to keep the Place of the Winds and to dispense the wisdom of the Winds?
Aaaayyyyrup!

Jay Frogskin |

So do the Guardians of the Winds go to war? I have the Fleet assembled.
War?! What? I....must commune. With the wind. I'll be right back.
*Flies into cave and communes**Returns*
I do not know what this war is about. The Tribble Lord? Because I think KC's got some plan or something....

Aaaayyyyrup!
I have flown over the lands and found that the threat of war has diminished.
Perhaps the foolish have discovered that they cannot fight the Wind?

Share what you have learned with the Brethren, Jay Frogskin. Aaawrk!
Admiral Byrd, if this is true, behold the wisdom of waiting for the Winds to reveal all things! Sometimes they blow the embers into a great fire, sometimes they blow them out. Rawk! Blessed be their coming and their passing! Rawk!
Really, what is it about?

Alderyk, King of the Fallarin |

Treant comes to the Place of the Winds and warns us of invading demons and goddess. We usually stay out of wars, though we defend our shrine with wind and with the mirror reality trap. Treant says earth, trees, stones, etc are going to be under assault and therefore we should call the Winds to save the day. Old bird calls council. Hawks show up first, but not many votes. Old bird tries to stall for time. Jay shows up and we ask him what he thinks. Admiral begins to change his mind about the state of war. I think that catches you up.

Ah, thanks.
I vote that we renew the wards and illusions, but otherwise do nothing. We are not warriors. But...if it gets serious, or if anybody gets killed, or badly hurt....then we intervene.
Demon Lord of Tribbles |

eh I came and said Your sky and earth is boring. I mean I have my layer, and a few other places to o why in the name of the abyss do i want to even try and a conquest of this place?
Raid every now and then sure, cause chaos and confusion you bet, carry folks off the my realm every now and then yep...but live here Hairy balls of the gods NO!
The Trent wants the hot dryads for himself is all

Alderyk, King of the Fallarin |

Brother Jay, who used to be a gull but now is a raven--how many species can one bro cover! who has seen beyond the Winds of Life to the Winds of the Land-beyond-Death, votes that we take a patient, defensive decision. Are there any more to be heard from?
Walks over to the Horn of Divination and lifts up a corner of the Comforter of Silence. Demon, if you were capable of being a respectful supplicant and not a spreader of tribbles and magical items of questionable intent, you would not be stuck in there with the borg.

Demon Lord of Tribbles |

The borg are not here they left some time ago...left that little beepy thing though.
Dude I am demon its in the title, I am gonna do demon like things. I even brought gifts and food and folks to sacrifice what more can a cult want
I mean talk about rude you eat my food drink my booze and then act like I am not here
Talk about mean...that jobs open if ya want it

Alderyk, King of the Fallarin |

Rawk. Don't need to read on illusions. The Horn of Divination allows intercourse between the dimensional trap and the Brethren, if one of the Brethren so choose. There is an illusory reproduction of everything in the shrine in the trap, just to keep its occupants entertained. When they will to leave the shrine for elsewhere, they leave the trap. But they cannot enter the shrine once they have been identified as a threat. Invaders are automatically shunted there. Noises and images from the dimension trap may be muffled by the Comforter of Silence. Ain't it awesome? It almost like it was designed to maintain thread integrity. ;)

Demon Lord of Tribbles |

I would like to point out dimensional trap are not very useful when one must hope dimensional barriers just to get here
I mean the Illusion was a good ideal and even works with some folks But dimensional barriers around here...sigh thats not such a good ideal
And even gods can't keep someone with the gatecrasher PRC out. It like a DC50 to open a god sealed gate or passage...
That type of trap really just does not work round here.
Just advice

Alderyk, King of the Fallarin |

Heh-heh...oh DLOT...if only the Winds had granted me a full understanding of the power of their trap, whose description I sketch, only to raise your objections. Well, I can assure you, their power is beyond my understanding, and all we avians can attest that it has protected us without fail. Perhaps the Winds judge it best that I do not have the knowledge to fully describe to you how it works and what terms and concepts fit that description. Perhaps they judge that the Brethren only need partial knowledge of it, lest we give to much away to those who would seek ways to subvert it.
Rai-yak!
We give praise to the Winds that they provided for us in our need!
Aaarip!

Demon Lord of Tribbles |

Heh thought ya had noticed that. Anyhow wasn't god modding just saying the trap wasn't very good...I men lets take the borg, collective minds have hella good will saves...fort and reflex is crap, next time go for something like that. I mean really we play about hoppeing plans for fun does a trap that makes traps us in a demi-plan really work very well for any of us?.....Now some kind of holy ward or something now that's usable but come one really a pocket plan...shesh...Just saying

Whenever I bring out any weapon against you, or, say, attack you in ANY way, you always are conveniently immune to it or dodge it or something, and proceed to have, say, abunch o demon hordes beat me up. |:(

Demon Lord of Tribbles |

Nah I just run before it works and you stop :}. I did go a bit to fair with the spell thing though that's why i dropped it. The binding in the untitled thing was fun though even if it did go to far, I was just running with unlimited power which i figed I could do, But i carried it a bit to far and didn't let others in on the fun there....I blame it all on that damned spell BTW.
