could you describe what this conduit does, i presume its like electricity or something?
Yes, it's the device I referred to in my character sheet under "traits." Basically it is a battery/generator type thing-- it stores a large amount of energy. The humans wouldn't know exactly what it does or how to use until they've experimented for a while-- what Mek wants to teach them is to harness his energy so that they can advance their technology.

Shibu saw what was about to come. The creature he created would be hunted down. He had to put an end of their scheming. He then saw potential. When night came, and the people became drowsy, he entered their minds. He showed them what was to come, if their foolishness would continue. He showed them the might of the powerful werewolf. It's haunting roar, it's salivating mouth, it's razor sharp claws. Hopefully this would be enough to make them back off.
You do realize Werewolf's can blend in with the local populace. So you could hide amongst the towns people,or make him bite everyone, and have the village of werewolfs. (Just some suggestions though, its your god, and i wouldnt want to inpose on your creativity. (Wow, if that comes of as snarky, i'm sorry, don't mean it like that, and now look at me, i'm going on))

-edit, or are you talking abotu your shadow wolves? in such case forget the above.
the villager turn back from destroying the forest. they are scared of the wolf dreams.

Shadows creep up around the boy as Hices approaches the child, not in the form of something terrifying, but in the form of an adult male. A cold grin on his face. "What happened child? How did you survive this?" Hices could sense that this boy could be used. It was only a matter of pulling the right strings. "Come now," he continued Tell me what happened, perhaps there is a way I can help."
"Hello!" he said looking up, wiping tears from his grubby face. "The bandits...Wee..we.we..my family were traveling to unhel, theres food there...and..we.wee.wee we were travelign down this path when these bandits attacked. i managed to escape, but they killed my family."
Yes, but I think people would be able to strike back if he tried to make everyone werewolves. And he can't control his werewolf-ness. He can't transform or keep himself form transforming when he wishes.

The townspeople were stricken with fear. But Shibu still needed a stronger legion of monsters. He then realized that he could remove their fear, one by one. In the village he noticed a warrior, whom had but one fear. The werewolf. Shibu took his power over fear, and attempted to remove the warrior's fear. If all went well, the warrior would walk alone, lost in his unique bravery, and lose his life to the poison of the wolf.

Brunt after watching them buillt the shrine to him.

"Thugga, Remember what I said... Make sure you keep mining, keeping cutting the trees and keep farming... Trading is one of the key points of your city.

Also create weapons and more protective armour for you soilders and hunters. Expand keep expanding but don't be greedy take one tribe at a time... It doesn't always have to be violent offer them a peaceful solution if they don't accept then this is a offence to your god and unless said otherwise I trust you to wage war."

Brunt showly faded from his human form to that of his normal form whispering in the mind of Thugga, "remember what I told you, If you need my help of advice pray to shrine and I be there at once."

Brunt faded into his energy form where he scouted the world.

The Hierophant heard the message and was quiet again before he said "The Music, is that what you go by? Well while I may not own this lands or these people, but they had no God of their own, and I had waited so long for another chance that I will not let pass by!" He was interupted shortly by the sounds of yelling voices as the hunters had returned telling him stories of monsters and demonic wolves in the woods.
Hearing how the boy had interpreted her message The Muse made a silly face and turned to blushing child, shaking her head from side to side and making funny noises. She conceded that at least he had got the basic idea right even if it did come out as a little more hostile than she intended. Serves me right for calling a child... At least they are often better listeners than their elders. The being thought, ruffling the boy's her affectionately before listening to what The Heirophant had to say. When he (if it was a he, it was always hard to tell with gods) asked if she went by 'The Music' she waved her hand in the air as if to say 'Sort of' and then let him continue. This god was already so protective of these humans, she wondered why and so influenced the child to speak once more: She understands but wonders how you got here and why. Was the general message she wanted to get across.

The Heirophant turned to face the being before him, ignoring the panicking hunters for now, spoke bluntly "You wish to know what brought me here? A calamity that is what." He said with rage creeping into his usually calm voice.
"I was part of a ruling triumvirate of Gods presiding over an old world. Things were good for a long time until a dark day when a being known as Khemilio set his sight on our veritable paradise. He acts by doing whatever can be done to weaken a God or any other being with power, then at their most vulnerable, he destroys them and takes their essence, their being, as his own. He defeated us by inspiring an uprising in a host of celestial beings and and a war erupted. He was their to take the fallen and growing more powerful all the time until he started destoying us on his own. I ran while the others fought and my world died screaming. For countless eons I floated in the void, and I had to exist with the fact that I ran while they died until I came here upon this new world. So now I am here to begin anew and I refuse to fail again." This emotional speech seemed to drain The Heirophant and the usual glow emitting from him faded into nothingness.

Nothing like exposition from a wall of text!

Hooray for walls of text!
The Muse listened intently to what The Heirophant had to say, hearing all the pain and hardship the ordeal had obvious brought to him. Scratching the back of her neck she frowned sympathetically, saddened that another universe had been so completely obliterated and made a mournful note, sounding like it came from a stringed instrument rather than vocal chords. Khemilio, the void and his evil deeds reminded her of The Hush and shivered, a hint of fear in her useless eyes and shifting uncomfortably with more string0like sounds, this time more fearful and tense than mournful. The Sound heard of the monsters apparently around them and even the monsters themselves, distracted for a minute as she listened to the new music until she remembered what she was doing. The being called one of her song birds to her, allowing it to land on her finger and influencing it to go to The Heirophant and sing for him.

The Muse had things to do and so decided to send the boy home, he was most likely causing his parents worry but she had a gift for him. She made the sound of a wooden flute trilling beautifully, moving her fingers and positioning her hands as if there was one there to play. Suddenly the instrument materialized at her lips, she played a quick scale and then handed it to the smiling, amused child with a grin. She gave him inspiration to compose great music when he became older and shooed him back to town, watching him run and listening for danger that could keep him from returning.

Thugga nodded.

"Thanks. We'll keep that in mind. The village of Gorel has been taken over by bandits, it might be the best time to wash their blood from the earth."

And with that, he gathers his warriors, all 80 of them, and begins to march down the valley towards the village of Gorel at the far end.

Dommius said:
Hices was annoyed by the fact the child didn't know where the bandits went, but he didn't let it show. He looked down upon the settlement, it was larger then anticipated. He wouldn't be able to take it force. Not yet anyways. He would have to build himself a bigger army. The minions under his command waited for him back in the clearing. He had his plan for them but they could wait for now. He continued onwards towards Unhel, hoping to corrupt a few members of the smaller villages. If he could pull a few away and start a small cult more would eventually succumb. Silently he followed the child. He would corrupt these mortals soon enough.
As you walk down the cliff face, you see a most unusual sight. 80 or so armed men march out of Unhel, in a long column, and begin to head towards a fortified village at the end of the valley. [/i

Thanks. At this stage, it won't do much, as the technology level of these savages is very low, but it will make them progress at a faster pace.
The villagers take the Conduit, and unsure with that to do with it, place it in the shrine. The thinkers of the tribes that worship you are incouraged by your praise, and build a new weapon of war, a catipult, which they use to flatten several villages, and increase thier area of control

Yeah, just making sure you saw because I think it got lost in there somewhere, but before the Exposition-Fest with FancyfulFanta those pack of hunters have returned with a story to tell. If you are waiting for the other guys you updated feel free to disregard this post.

I think that wraps up our business on a brighter note




After recomposing himself The Hierophant turns his attention to The Muse one last time. "I apologize for that outbreak, but that event is the darkest time in my existence. The people here seem to enjoy your prescence so you are welcome back here whenever you please. Now it seems something has greatly disturbed my hunters" He says to her before leaving to see the lead hunter and to discuss what is wrong.

OCC; sorry. Didnt see it, (I need to stop updating when i'm uber tired)
The villagers ran back into town.

One steps forward, a big man with a bow and a spear.

"lord, when we were out there last night, laying to groundwork so that we could destroy these beasts in the forest, a wolf entered out dreams. We thought it a bad omen, and so return to the village"

Hices watched the men advance from his vantage point, allowing the child to run off even further ahead. He'd seen this before, armed men meant a war. War meant death. Once the child was far enough away Hices took the skies and raced for the village where the men were headed.

The Muse smiled broadly to The Heirophant and gave a silly, grandiose bow to the god before sprinting off into the woods. She had an idea having found all the strange, wondrous creatures even in only this little patch of the world and found a suitable area for her plans. The wolves in the forest near Heirophant's land posed a problem and so she ran further out but remained in the woods, finding a lively place to begin. It was nearby more of these creatures known as 'humans' which amused her, fond of their creativity but deciding that new life was needed. She could hear battle and blood and warfare on its way, it held a sort of dangerous, dark beauty that she admired despite how destructive it seemed and helped inspire her creations to be. The Sound began to sing, moving her hands like a conductor to let the forest follow her lead and attracted both animals and humans who wandered too far from Unhel to the place. The being did not yet have enough power to do what she wanted and so made them want to stay there, be happy and the animals and humans to be friendly until the end of the round until she was ready.

"Entered your dreams?" The Heirophant pondered over this, thinking it was the sign of yet another God on this world. "What was the manner of this dream? Was their any mention of names or places?"

How much does it cost to bless a weapon? also on that note, how much do S and E do I have left?

In the small village square, about 50 or so men gathered. They were dressed in leather, with swords and bows. About 6 were on horses, and they looked the leaders. with a horn blow 4 of the horse men and 30 of the non-mounted men filed out of the village.

about a mile down the road, the other side gathered in a line. Each side teasting the other, waiting for a mistake. they were evenly matched, one side held more men, the other the better positions.

So, as far as i understand this post, you're gathering any people who wander from unhel to you. Just clarifying.

i've mostly left S&E be for this round, as it tends to be inhibitive in the first rounds from the games i've played of this. thats not to say you can go crazy with your powers.
"Yes lord, entered our dreams. It was a wolf, a big one, teeth gashing, glowing eyes."

This information was disconcerting, as these wolves were becoming a growing problem. Finally He said"Hand me your bow hunter. Also, what is your name?"

So changing the bow into something like this
and some small light based powers isnt out of the question?

"Agor, then, when you are ready you will lead your group out again and you shall have this at your disposal. He said handling the crudely fashioned bow in his hands and channeling his power into it. The bow was absorbed by a brightly shining light and takes on it's new form "With this, you shall not need to fear any creature that hides in the shadows, as it will protect you and your people from the dangers ahead." He then hands the bow back to the hunter

Sorry about that but I edited in a quick OOC with a picture of the new bow's form in my last post. It took a while for me to hunt down a good picture, hope it's not too over the top this early in the game. Also This is me calling it a night

Pretty much... Uh, since you're saying you're not too fussed about S and E at this point am I able to to turn both the humans and animals I've gathered into Satyr-like creatures who like to party, play music and screw with humans now? If not I'm happy to wait...
