(no subject)

I would like to have a chat sometime in the near future about things like the other pantheons. There's been a lot of talk about JCM pantheon stuff, but if the other gods exist then wouldn't their places exist too? Do their creatures exist as well? Why or why not? How DOES divine power work, in the game? Right now I'm just using my personal theory, but the other pagan gods aren't as weak as Hermes is, so I would like to clear the mechanics up on that.

Is this cool with everyone?

If such a thing can be arranged, I'd love that.

...It may seem at first that this hardly has anything to do with either of my characters (except indirectly). However, I might remind that not only Uriel's kid, but also Uriel herself could very well become a part of the Asgardian pantheon. If Pestilence, the baby, and her brother(s!) are on the neutral zone, Uriel will not choose Heaven. (And Loki wasn't originally a god either...)

Hi, Hermes! ^_^

What I've been going with, especially since I play the American Gods version of Horus, is that the gods are sort of anthropomorphic personifications not unlike the Horsepeople, created by the collective conciousness of their worshipers. It's fairly in keeping with the canonical weakening of the old gods from that book, and doesn't conflict with the Judeo-Christian backdrop of the RP. Don't know where you're coming from with Hermes, just putting that out there.

I think a chat would be a good idea though. The trick is finding a time when we're all on!

Also, I think it would be fun to have Hermes and Horus meet sometime...we could has that out here if you like or my AIM is HawkHorus, I'm usually always on.

I love Hermes by the way. He's adorable and makes me wish I could pick up a Greek so he'd have a friend around.
