10:58.09 | ImpyDroid | Wormy_: Just curious: what will happen to Wormy III after the GXS? |
10:58.27 | ImpyDroid | As in, Wormy lust II's son |
10:58.30 | ImpyDroid | *Wormulus |
10:58.35 | Wormy_ | Lunarai? |
10:58.45 | Wormy_ | He is the Emprah |
10:59.14 | Wormy_ | While Wormulus became the Great/Eternal Leader |
10:59.18 | ImpyDroid | No, I mean Wormy's biological son |
10:59.34 | ImpyDroid | I swear we used him once |
11:00.03 | Wormy_ | I vaguely remember talking about the possibility, but definately doesn't exist in canon form |
11:00.15 | ImpyDroid | You said he has the potential to become near godlike due to the elemental power in the Wormulus family slowly growing |
11:00.17 | ImpyDroid | Ah right |
11:00.29 | Wormy_ | As do his sons, Lunarai etc. |
11:00.51 | Wormy_ | They are his sons in a sense, but are clones as well |
11:00.57 | ImpyDroid | Wormy_: By Eternal Leader you mean like Kim Il Sung? |
11:01.11 | Wormy_ | Ands Lunarai is a clone of Eclipsos, who is a close on the Emperor |
11:01.17 | Wormy_ | yes |
11:01.30 | Wormy_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3ADa_Reckoning#Protectors_of_the_Milky_Way |

14:28.35 | ImpyDroid | WHAT IS THIS |
14:28.45 | ImpyDroid | WHAT THE FUCK WAS THIS |
14:29.05 | Hachiman | Oh God |
14:30.27 | ImpyDroid | Not sure if horrible or hilarious |
14:32.32 | ImpyDroid | Actually |
14:32.50 | ImpyDroid | Considering these guys are essentially the Empire's secret agents |
14:33.14 | ImpyDroid | And they wear black |
14:33.16 | ImpyDroid | Could one call them "Black helicopters" |
14:33.47 | Hachiman | I have seen worse things done with the Force |
14:35.07 | ImpyDroid | In Legends? Yeah |
14:35.58 | Hachiman | Also |
14:36.28 | Hachiman | Apparently God of War IV will have a Norse mythological setting instead of Greek yet Kratos is still set to be the protagonist |
14:37.32 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: https://art.penny-arcade.com/photos/814155141_3dnYd/0/2100x20000/814155141_3dnYd-2100x20000.jpg |
14:37.39 | AdmiralPanda | well, God of War needed something bigger than a shark to jump |
14:37.49 | Hachiman | hur |
14:37.57 | ImpyDroid | I presume it will be set in the Middle Ages then |
14:38.18 | AdmiralPanda | the funny thing is, number one was an excellent example of greek tragedy |
14:38.21 | AdmiralPanda | the other two are trash |
14:38.25 | ImpyDroid | Now I have the mental image of Kratos literally walking the earth to find gods to kill |
14:38.30 | ImpyDroid | Kratos Dawkins |
14:38.35 | Hachiman | But I liked God of War II ;-; |
14:40.24 | Hachiman | At least they redesigned Kratos to fit in with the Nordic setting; they gave him a beard, hide clothes, a pair of axes instead of blades, and a fucking beard |
14:40.30 | Hachiman | Oh wait I mentioned beard twice |
14:40.36 | Wormy_ | ImpyDroid: Saw that, it did irritate me |
14:40.42 | ImpyDroid | Kradorf |
14:40.50 | AdmiralPanda | mechanically speaking the game is fine, but thematically it's crap in comparison to 1 |
14:40.51 | ImpyDroid | He needs a beard |
14:41.04 | Hachiman | http://images.eurogamer.net/2015/articles/1/8/2/2/2/9/0/145984172119.png |
14:41.18 | ImpyDroid | Still looks mostly like Kratos |
14:42.25 | Hachiman | Perhaps it is just some new continuity |

14:43.05 | Hachiman | That or Kratos ended up in Scandinavia after he "died" at the end of GoW III |
14:43.06 | Hachiman | Hai |
14:43.18 | ImpyDroid | So he died and got reincarnated or something by a new pantheon |
14:43.27 | ImpyDroid | Hi motherfucker |
14:44.16 | Hachiman | Well, what happened was he essentially freed Greece from the control of the Greek pantheon by merit of killing all of the Greek gods and then he kinda disappeared |
14:44.53 | Hachiman | Honestly hoping it is just some sorta reboot |
14:45.02 | OluapPlayer | RUDE |
14:45.33 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: He does not look so Scandinavian so I presume he is still Spartam |
14:45.36 | ImpyDroid | *Spartan |
14:46.02 | Hachiman | What makes you think he does not look Scandinavian hur |
14:46.23 | ImpyDroid | Tan, dark, naked |
14:46.48 | Hachiman | That's probably because it's only conceptual right now |
14:47.00 | ImpyDroid | True |
14:47.12 | Hachiman | If it was final, I imagine Kratos would be white as a ghost considering his skin is ashes |
14:48.08 | Hachiman | It is a bit strange envisioning a Spartan among Vikings though |
14:48.25 | Hachiman | Even if they were both martial warrior cultures |
14:50.02 | ImpyDroid | Hm |
14:50.07 | Wormy_ | Reminds me of Klingon legend. The Klingons killed their gods. |
14:50.22 | ImpyDroid | Spartans were more organised so perhaps he could make Vikings into a proper army or something |

17:08.24 | OluapPlayer | Right |
17:10.16 | Xho | No other character of mine would have any relation to the dessert |
17:12.51 | OluapPlayer | Just need a reason to explain why Septimus is there, unless he just decided to follow Earath/Nd around |
17:13.26 | Xho | Well for Septimus the idea of an insane ancient dictator ruling over the Sea of Sand brings him PTSD moments |
17:14.08 | OluapPlayer | The team is united by the Dynasty hiring them to investigate that, so they're essentially mercenaries |
17:14.22 | Xho | In that case he doesn't like slavers |

17:22.23 | OluapPlayer | They're abnormal hur |
17:22.38 | Hachiman | Well one of the reasons why Khyannarith is planning to do what he is doing is because more and more Idkin are appearing in the Sea of Sand |
17:25.18 | Xho | Kaaxhesh - well that's good |
17:25.41 | Xho | As far as I remember the Order and the Exosubstratal are at a certain level of (mis)understanding |
17:26.11 | Xho | I'm not sure what kind of magic actually rules the Order of the Black Sun |

20:17.31 | DrodoEmpire | olol |
20:20.45 | ImpyDroid | DrodoEmpire: What weapon/soldier type is the counter to mounted archers? |
20:20.58 | DrodoEmpire | Hm, good question |
20:21.06 | DrodoEmpire | Other light cavalry, really |
20:21.13 | DrodoEmpire | Or any terrain other than open fields |
20:21.45 | DrodoEmpire | Otherwise mounted archers will be able to at least harass indefinitely |
20:22.46 | Wormy_ | Couldn't this work? http://www.primaryhomeworkhelp.co.uk/romans/images/soldiers/tort2.jpg |
20:22.58 | ImpyDroid | Thinking of how these guys http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/3/3e/Tertamian.png/revision/latest?cb=20151019165741 could have developed |
20:23.06 | ImpyDroid | They are basically horse people |
20:23.06 | DrodoEmpire | No, the Romans tried that with the Parthians Wormy |
20:23.24 | DrodoEmpire | They got seven kinds of shit kicked out of them |
20:23.27 | ImpyDroid | Didn't Parthians have chariots and not mounted archers tho |
20:23.34 | DrodoEmpire | No they used horse archer |
20:23.36 | DrodoEmpire | *s |
20:23.43 | DrodoEmpire | By Roman times chariots were generally out of use |
20:24.06 | DrodoEmpire | Only people like the Celts or maybe the Chinese used them, otherwise they weren't all that common |
20:24.49 | DrodoEmpire | Basically horse archers are greatly overrated: They're excellent in areas where the land is flat and generally featureless |
20:25.40 | DrodoEmpire | Otherwise they aren't all that good, and'll generally be outdone or at least no better than any other sort of unit in say the forests of germany or the hilly lands of Italy |
20:26.00 | ImpyDroid | So shields and the like would not be as good against them |
20:26.01 | DrodoEmpire | Impy: Anyway they look cool firstly |
20:26.13 | DrodoEmpire | Impy: Well shields are always something you carry into battle |
20:26.16 | DrodoEmpire | You don't *not* |
20:26.43 | DrodoEmpire | Heavy infantry, cavalry, or heavy anything isn't good against horse archers in open terrain |
20:26.50 | DrodoEmpire | Its a different story in rougher terrain |
20:27.37 | Wormy_ | According this this, the Parthians used heavy cavalry with archers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testudo_formation#Tactical_analysis |
20:27.56 | *** join/#sporewiki Charles_Murray (ad2e666a@gateway/web/freenode/ip.173.46.102.106) |
20:28.02 | DrodoEmpire | Hi Charles |
20:28.11 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_ Yeah that's basically why it failed against the Parthians |
20:28.34 | DrodoEmpire | If I'm not mistaken a lot of the fighting happened around Syria and Mesopotamia, which has a lot of flatlands perfect for cavalry maneuverse |
20:28.36 | Charles_Murray | Hey |
20:28.36 | DrodoEmpire | *s |
20:29.08 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway Impy it makes a lot of sense if they used a primarily cavalry force |
20:29.10 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
20:29.16 | Wormy_ | hi |
20:29.20 | ImpyDroid | Cavalry as in simply running hur |
20:29.24 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
20:29.38 | DrodoEmpire | Though depending on terrain it might be smarter to have a higher proportion of heavier cavalry |
20:29.50 | ImpyDroid | Right makes sense |
20:30.00 | ImpyDroid | anyway ded |
20:30.06 | DrodoEmpire | Glad to help! |
20:30.17 | DrodoEmpire | A mostly or 100% horse archer army *sounds* attractive, though the victories they made historically have a wider context to keep in mind |
20:39.48 | Xho | I had an idea for the Fantasyverse which I might actually put into practice |
20:39.50 | Wormy_pages | Most of my pages are a horrible mess |
20:40.06 | Xho | Basically it's a faction that's somewhere between the Dark Brotherhood and the Faceless Men |
20:47.52 | DrodoEmpire | Huh |
20:51.22 | Wormy_pages | ImpyDroid: Documented the crusades into DCP history http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Delpha_Coalition_of_Planets/History/Development#Empire_era_3 |
20:59.11 | Wormy_pages | Xho: Is the Kicath Dissention still canon? |
20:59.18 | Xho | As an event yes |
20:59.39 | Xho | I'd write on it but I find writing about the Fictionverse dreadfully difficult |
21:02.50 | Wormy_pages | I see, I wondered whether it is still open to other fiction involved. Not to do any fiction, just to add the DCP's involvement in the their list of major engagements. |
21:03.47 | Technobliterator | Charles_Murray, any update on Reckoning? :o |
21:09.44 | Xho | Well I'm considering closing it back again or completely doing away with the page entirely |
21:09.51 | Xho | I don't really want to write it at all |
21:13.46 | Wormy_pages | I'll delete it from the DCP's Development page |

22:01.34 | The_Randomness | Hello |
22:11.04 | Xho | OluapPlayer: >halfcaste Clothovera - DEMS FIGHTIN WORDS |
22:11.19 | OluapPlayer | Clotho - how dare u im not human |
22:15.17 | Xho | "Whoa. Ya think there's some sorta conspiracy going on? That there are people in the school wanting to kill off non-elves or something?" Annamasakkan - I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH IT STOP POINTING YOUR FINGERS AT ME |
22:16.13 | Xho | I'm surprised that dark magic is a taught art |
22:16.23 | Xho | I guess it's only theory more than practice |
22:16.34 | Hachiman | Well, the Aithrena are dark elves |
22:16.40 | Hachiman | They are innately tied to dark magic |
22:16.47 | Hachiman | And are a major Sovereignty race |
22:16.54 | Xho | Well reanimating a corpse in a lesson might be a little taboo |
22:17.09 | Hachiman | Animals is acceptable at least |
22:17.12 | Hachiman | *are even |
22:17.21 | Xho | That makes me wonder whether necromancy is actually sanctioned |
22:18.41 | Hachiman | Probably although not outside of class |
22:19.16 | Hachiman | Well |
22:19.27 | Hachiman | Eh it's iffy territory because Aithrena have a different stance towards it |
22:19.44 | Xho | Do you think the Collegium has any ties to the College of Ferridro or would you think the Sovereingty thinks of it as a hellhole for unnatural practices |
22:19.56 | Hachiman | What does Ferridro practice? |
22:20.01 | Xho | Dark magic |
22:20.04 | Xho | Just dark magic |
22:20.06 | OluapPlayer | If it's made by u it's automatically a hellhole |
22:20.08 | OluapPlayer | hee hee |
22:20.09 | Hachiman | They probably have ties then |
22:20.19 | Hachiman | I mean Purity's Apogee kinda borders Talmyr somewhat |
22:20.47 | Hachiman | It's in that border between the Western Forests, Polar Regions, and Talmyr |
22:20.50 | Hachiman | Kinda |
22:20.51 | Xho | They do encompass all areas of dark magic, so from the old-fashioned Dalmiric necromancy to Shadowrealmer hocus pocus |
22:20.57 | Xho | "that cold area" |
22:21.07 | OluapPlayer | Fucking add your fiction to the map JESUS CHRIST |
22:21.30 | Xho | "jesus christ" u meen longinus kek |
22:21.32 | Hachiman | do it 4 me pls i cant use ur shitty new wiki functions |
22:21.49 | OluapPlayer | dunt test my patience kiddo |
22:21.57 | Xho | Incidentally, Longinus was the Roman centurion who pierced the right side of Christ |
22:22.10 | OluapPlayer | You never tried to use it |
22:22.28 | Xho | Now I remember why Longinus is named Longinus, dur |
22:22.34 | Xho | stupid xho |
22:23.50 | Xho | But yeah the College of Feirridro engages in active practice and necromancy on sentient corpses is sanctioned |
22:24.17 | Hachiman | The Collegium probably likes to send dark magic students there |
22:24.29 | Hachiman | Because there is only so much they can teach within the Sovereignty's boundaries |
22:24.43 | Xho | Clotho goes to the College of Feirridro Taihadrae - WELCOME TO THE ICE FIELDS MOTHERFUCKER |
22:24.57 | OluapPlayer | Clotho - nah |
22:25.05 | Xho | Taihadrae - :c |
22:25.59 | Xho | The Soul Market is where the College gets their supplies |
22:26.22 | Xho | Generally quite shifty and the Dalmiric Kingdom had tried to shut it down for thousands of years |
22:26.51 | OluapPlayer | And what's stopping them? |
22:26.56 | Xho | Until they realised that Deathdealers were regulating the trade route and then backed off |
22:27.00 | OluapPlayer | Other than their current state of being demon food |
22:27.41 | OluapPlayer | use ur fukin military |
22:27.50 | Xho | Dalmiric soldiers and scout parties would go missing or be found mummified in frozen temperatures without their heads |
22:28.37 | Xho | There's kind of a reason why the Lightless Plains were feared by the Shiarchon as well |
22:29.02 | Xho | Generally because if you venture into the Lightless Plains and the Deathdealers don't like you, you'll end up being a necromancer's next experiment |
22:29.15 | Xho | Or in the Shiarchon's case, dead |
22:29.52 | Xho | Does make me wonder how the College pays the Deathdealers |
22:30.08 | Xho | Deathdealers don't barter in coin so it's a weird trade off |
22:30.53 | OluapPlayer | Good way to scare students away |
22:31.06 | Xho | It's a niche environment |
22:31.20 | Xho | You don't go to Talmyr and learn about dark magic if you give a fuck about the sanctity of the living |
22:32.12 | Xho | But the College is an external territory of the Lightless Plains so it's not within Deathdealer turf |
22:32.35 | Xho | And Deathdealers are generally invisible anyway |
22:32.36 | OluapPlayer | Considering what happened during Eschaton I doubt Clotho would want to visit Talmyr again |
22:32.47 | Xho | Taihadrae - but the ice fields |
22:33.26 | Xho | Suppose not, Talmyr will still be a war zone after Eschaton anyway |
22:33.50 | OluapPlayer | None of my chars have a reason to not see the place in a bad light except Norrigan who doesn't care either way |
22:34.34 | Xho | I wouldn't say it's a place for the good of heart, or Talmyr in general |
22:35.01 | Xho | The place has been swamped in dark magic for 99% of recorded history |
22:35.11 | OluapPlayer | Norrigan would jump into the void if the voice in his head ordered him to |
22:35.21 | Xho | Caligaduro - i am the voice in your head do it |
22:35.36 | OluapPlayer | Norrigan - ur not as pretty as isiris |
22:35.43 | Xho | Caligaduro - isiris is dum |
22:36.02 | OluapPlayer | Norrigan - [DEUS VULT INTENSIFIES] |
22:36.16 | Xho | That being said the College of Feirridro was the home to Ahdramilús who is historically not a very nice individual |
22:36.37 | Technobliterator | where did Deus Vult come from |
22:36.39 | Technobliterator | ?_? |
22:36.50 | Xho | The necromancers pillaged the fortress, stole its secrets and then transformed it into the College because it was big enough |
22:36.55 | OluapPlayer | The Crusades |
22:37.25 | OluapPlayer | Also go work on Reckoning ffs |
22:37.55 | Technobliterator | I am :o |
22:38.14 | Technobliterator | rping with Tybusen to do the next section |
22:38.39 | Xho | And that was...2,070-ish years ago in the Fantasy Universe |
22:40.17 | OluapPlayer | Also if the Aithrena revere Mortium then they probably shouldn't practice actual necromancy |
22:40.20 | Charles_Bot | Technobliterator: "God wills it" |
22:40.32 | Technobliterator | ah |
22:40.35 | OluapPlayer | Since necromancy is a pretty heavy sin in Mortium's eyes |
22:40.37 | Charles_Bot | Comes from a legend surrounding the announcement of the First Crusade |
22:40.44 | Hachiman | Well, the Aithrena practice "reanimation" rather than "necromancy" |
22:41.02 | OluapPlayer | If they make bone golems, that's okay |
22:41.15 | Xho | I'd imagine reanimation is more of a corpse manipulation rather than stealing a soul from Death to bring a corpse back to life |
22:41.19 | OluapPlayer | But Mortium hates the undead or using the souls of the dead to power up anything] |
22:41.20 | Hachiman | They animate skeletons and whatnot but they do not actually bring the souls back and enslave them |
22:41.41 | Technobliterator | also, Hachi may notice a certain reference in this section later on |
22:41.55 | Hachiman | Oh? |
22:42.27 | Technobliterator | you'll probably spot it |
22:43.23 | Xho | Hachiman: So when would you think Septimus would become part of the Collgeium |
22:43.40 | OluapPlayer | never NA |
22:43.54 | Xho | I would think that Septimus would try and obscure his identity as an Orichalcum Elf and call himself some "unusual mix of an Erylian and Hikamera Elf" or something |
22:43.57 | *** join/#sporewiki Liquid_Ink (79d0cd9d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.121.208.205.157) |
22:46.04 | OluapPlayer | That might not work well, he's nearly twice the size of either of those races |
22:46.26 | Xho | Septimus - greetings class i am not normal |
22:46.43 | OluapPlayer | Szalvetha - finally someone interesting |
22:47.33 | Xho | Septimus - the hell is a derevar doing in a magic school is this some kind of sick joke |
22:47.36 | Hachiman | Dunno, really he could become a teacher anywhere between 35 NA and beyond if he wanted to |
22:48.39 | OluapPlayer | The Collegium has antimagic classes |
22:48.48 | Hachiman | Aye |
22:48.53 | OluapPlayer | Szalvetha is an anti-mage and an alchemist |
22:48.57 | Xho | Longinus - heliomancer.exe has stopped working |
22:51.11 | Xho | I'm getting this funny picture in my head that Septimus brings in Longinus to assist him in his lesson; Longinus goes completely rigid and starts sweating buckets in the presence of a classroom |
22:51.42 | OluapPlayer | Longinus - this displeases the piercings |
22:52.33 | Xho | Longinus - these people are small septimus are you telling me there's more creepy small people besides clothovera and hachi |
22:52.56 | OluapPlayer | Dwarves - bruh |
22:53.30 | Xho | Longinus - heliomancer.exe is not responding |
22:53.52 | Xho | That being said Longinus would actually be an excellent teacher |
22:54.03 | Xho | On the basis it was 5,000 years ago and they were all militant heliomancers |
22:54.40 | Hachiman | He could set up a new Order of Sol |
22:54.44 | OluapPlayer | Longinus - next lesson, kill everyone last one standing can go on lunch break |
22:54.45 | Hachiman | Or whatever they were called |
22:54.48 | Xho | That was his plan after Eschaton |
22:55.13 | Xho | He was going to re-establish an order to protect Koldenwelt because the Eschaton bunch are no longer together |
22:55.46 | Hachiman | Dwarven heliomancers = mini-Zeuses |
22:55.53 | Xho | Although mostly in a bid to re-populate Dar-Nahalant back into an eight-thousand strong fortress |
22:55.58 | Xho | citadel, city |
22:56.04 | OluapPlayer | Thunardormir - bitch i exist already |
22:56.31 | Xho | More than likely discussing that with Vixaatus of course |
22:56.35 | OluapPlayer | Longinus - i must populate this place with more than just vixaatus and his flying lizards |
22:56.57 | Xho | Longinus - i cannot fly and i must mildly express my disdain for it |
22:57.44 | OluapPlayer | If Longinus is uncomfortable with Vixaatus around, he could leave back to his mountain |
22:58.08 | Xho | I think Longinus is probably more comfortable with Vixaatus than the rest of the team |
22:58.50 | Xho | He and Septimus don't really see eye to eye |
22:59.06 | Xho | Not on a personal level anyway |
22:59.11 | OluapPlayer | Having a hundred Sand Drakes around the fortress is a good way to keep bad people out at least |
22:59.24 | Xho | Longinus - eet sun or eet sand ur choice |
23:00.51 | Xho | Taihadrae will go back to the College of Feirridro and shape it up, becoming the new Headmistress or whatever the highest rank is |
23:01.08 | OluapPlayer | Headmistress zambie |
23:01.11 | Xho | "Hi, you might remember me from 650 BNA" |
23:01.39 | Xho | Annamasakkan's my main enigma though since I have no clue what he'll do |
23:01.58 | OluapPlayer | he dais |
23:02.10 | OluapPlayer | Or goes fishing with Mhor |
23:02.15 | Hachiman | caligaduro shud get married and hav sum kids |
23:02.25 | Xho | Mhor - GODDAMMIT NAMA THAT'S NOT A FISH THAT'S A WHALE |
23:02.34 | OluapPlayer | Vargash - goo |
23:02.37 | Xho | I did have an idea concerning 'children' of Caligaduro |
23:02.54 | Hachiman | Isn't that what Vargash and Kaicai are hur |
23:03.04 | Xho | I mean demigods, not Simulacra |
23:03.50 | Xho | Like Caligaduro planting evil seeds within mortals and giving birth to demigods of earthly qualities |
23:04.48 | Xho | Although the term demigod's slightly inaccurate as it would only amount to a being of Longinus-esque power |
23:04.57 | Xho | Not realm-shifting god magic |
23:05.23 | OluapPlayer | Caligaduro - talk to me when you doctor |
23:05.36 | Xho | Kaicaiusarin - night terrors dere diagnosed |
23:06.27 | Xho | One of these demigods was going to be a leader of a side in the post-Eschaton war in Talmyr |
23:06.35 | Xho | Or a demigoddess in this case |
23:07.36 | Xho | The concept was that the character was among the first Deiwos cultures on Koldenwelt and Caligaduro spawned her out of a mortal woman to steer mortals into an evil path |
23:08.11 | OluapPlayer | I have some rough ideas for fiction but I'm not doing them until my stories with Hachi are done |
23:08.25 | OluapPlayer | One was of a war with Xacutus as the big bad |
23:08.47 | Xho | Longinus - DAMN XACUTUS BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE GIANT HOLE IN YOUR CHEST |
23:09.06 | OluapPlayer | Xacutus - how dare u woman |
23:10.06 | Xho | The name of the demigoddess character was going to be 'Lilith' in relation to the Jewish demonness |
23:10.09 | OluapPlayer | Another is Alhazred accidentally creating shadow clones of the Dawn Wardens, but I don't think that would be worth a plot on itself |
23:10.39 | Xho | Shadow Longinus is actually netural coloured shade |
23:10.49 | OluapPlayer | Longinus isn't a Dawn Warden hur |
23:10.59 | Xho | Oh I didn't see the Dawn Warden part |
23:11.03 | Xho | Shadow Maras |
23:11.09 | Xho | Okay you're playing with crazy shit there |
23:11.18 | OluapPlayer | quit ur op shi hur |
23:11.49 | OluapPlayer | if I did it, it would include a Shadow Maras and a Shadow Kinmo since he was also a Warden |
23:11.59 | Xho | Alhazred - how did i fuck up this badly |
23:12.27 | OluapPlayer | Obviously they'd not be as powerful as the originals since he can't recreate their magic, and they're based on his memories |
23:12.39 | Xho | Evil Kinmo r u mad |
23:12.43 | Xho | r u actuly mad |
23:13.03 | OluapPlayer | Final boss would probably be a Shadow Vixaatus |
23:13.22 | Xho | Vixaatus - eet sand Shadow Vixaatus - NO U |
23:14.42 | OluapPlayer | This all really stems from me wandering how the Eschaton team would fare against Clotholaire, Melusina or Cindrithas |
23:14.46 | OluapPlayer | or Interivastius |
23:15.16 | Xho | To be honest I think the Dawn Wardens > Eschaton Team |
23:15.41 | Xho | Shadow Clones perhaps not |
23:15.58 | OluapPlayer | Considering all the Dawn Wardens had, probably yes |
23:17.06 | OluapPlayer | They had to be considering what they fought |
23:17.18 | Xho | Did we ever establish if Longinus was approached to join the Dawn Wardens or even him encountering them 6000 years ago |
23:17.29 | OluapPlayer | We didn't |
23:17.44 | OluapPlayer | Only thing you ever mentioned was that the Orichalcum Elves didn't like them |
23:17.58 | Xho | The Order of Sol didn't particularly |
23:18.26 | Xho | Mainly due to Aúr Akbar |
23:18.28 | OluapPlayer | Vixaatus - eet void denizens den |
23:18.49 | OluapPlayer | Dawn Wardens were not a religious order |
23:19.07 | Xho | Although Longinus was probably among the more lenient leaders of the Order of Sol |
23:20.21 | Xho | His predecessors probably would have had the inclination to try and remove them from existence but Longinus was named the leader of the Order of Sol 500 years before the Dawn Wardens all died |
23:21.27 | OluapPlayer | Keep in mind the Dawn Wardens existed for only around 80 years |
23:21.48 | Xho | Longinus - 80 years i last longer than that in bed just kidding i'm celibate |
23:23.00 | Xho | If the Dawn Wardens lived 20,000 years earlier then they probably would have had to deal with Keleivel's Order of Sol which was of the Pax Gold Elf scheme |
23:23.15 | OluapPlayer | Vixaatus - eet meh |
23:24.01 | OluapPlayer | But yeah, the Wardens were founded by 6,000 BNA and were destroyed by 5,920 BNA |
23:25.17 | Xho | Keleivel - i lived before u wat u meh'ing about |
23:26.07 | OluapPlayer | Vixaatus - dum yellow people |
23:26.36 | Xho | Keleivel - i didn't die for dis |
23:27.11 | Xho | But yeah Keleivel was the Orichalcum Elf God Emperor |
23:27.26 | Xho | Think Emperor Longinus on steroids |
23:28.08 | Xho | Thinking about it, if the Order of Sol was still the government of the Orichalcum Elves, Longinus would have been Emperor and not Septimus |
23:28.56 | Xho | That was probably their ultimate mistake, removing the Order of Sol's power |
23:29.15 | Xho | The Orichalcum Elves may have still reigned into the modern day if it weren't for that |
23:29.26 | OluapPlayer | Kalarah - thanks m8 |
23:29.35 | Xho | Castus - the crown was a mistake |
23:29.38 | OluapPlayer | Actually I was going to ask |
23:29.59 | OluapPlayer | If Kalarah's actual name is Constantius, why does he get called Kalarah? |
23:30.13 | Xho | It's an Undertongue name that's carried on through the ages |
23:30.35 | Xho | The Shiarchon call him Imperator Constantius though Kalarah has a much more omnious definition to it |
23:30.54 | OluapPlayer | I see |
23:31.00 | Xho | "Scion of the Colossus" is what Imp said it meant |
23:31.13 | OluapPlayer | Kebra'Osos - boss kalarah aka constantine |
23:31.45 | Xho | Kalarah becomes an exorcist who's dying of lung cancer |
23:31.56 | Xho | Constantine would be his modern name though |
23:31.58 | OluapPlayer | Kalarah - accurate until recently |
23:32.09 | Xho | Like Longinus' modern name would be Tarquin |
23:32.33 | Xho | I bet Longinus goes day to day thinking "Why the fuck is everyone calling me by my grandfather's name" |
23:32.36 | OluapPlayer | Longinus - fire da death star beam |
23:33.26 | Xho | Tarquinius Silvanus, forever remembered by his grandfather's name of whom nothing is known about |
23:33.27 | OluapPlayer | He doesn't have to worry since no one calls him Tarquin hur |
23:33.49 | OluapPlayer | Everyone around him calls him Longinus |
23:33.52 | OluapPlayer | Except Septimus |
23:34.02 | Xho | Longinus - ur lucky because tarquin has no negative connotations in koldenwelt broke the fourth wall, aúr is great |
23:34.28 | OluapPlayer | Norrigan - ISIRIS WILLS IT |
23:34.43 | Xho | I imagine Longinus' modernised name would be something along the lines of Tarquin Goldspear or Tarquin Thunderbolt |
23:34.56 | Xho | Which to Longinus would sound utterly fucking stupid |
23:35.10 | OluapPlayer | Longinus - i went from heliomancer warrior to zap zap boy |
23:35.31 | Xho | Septimus - i went from emperor to bronze elf bitch |
23:35.38 | OluapPlayer | Kalarah - LOL |
23:35.48 | Xho | Septimus - shup u went from actuly wait |
23:36.15 | OluapPlayer | kalarah - i went frum invincible evil to invincible-er evil |
23:36.30 | Xho | You know the original idea for the post Fall of Talmyr story was that Kalarah was going to be captured rather than Arcturus |
23:36.49 | OluapPlayer | Capture Kalarah |
23:36.51 | Xho | Although I wagered that Kalarah could have broken himself free |
23:36.52 | OluapPlayer | hao u do dat |
23:37.03 | Xho | And that too |
23:37.15 | OluapPlayer | Speaking of which |
23:37.18 | OluapPlayer | maek Arcturus paeg |
23:37.23 | Xho | I will do that |
23:37.27 | Xho | later |
23:37.46 | OluapPlayer | hur |
