RE: So. . . you know that thing I do occasionally? Round 3? - Askier - 08-11-2014
Currently at work but thought to post some brainstorm on idea.
The cult will be serving a distorted version of Nald'thal. Â The cultist assume Nald and Thal are two halves of the same god and tattoo half their face with black ink. Half the cult is dedicated to the commerce half of Nald'thal and opperate in the business of death, selling out their "Crows" as assassins for hire for coin and to increase the wealth of Nald'thal's soul bank in the underworld while also excelling at commerce in real goods like wool.
The other part of the cult is aimed at ending life on the planet and making the underworld, Nald'thal's domain, the only place souls reside, for this would make Nald'thal a monopoly on the soul market. (Hooray commerce and cults!)Â
The idea of event is the "The Voice" of Nald'thal is trying to collect the needed parts of a spell to resurect what he believes to be the mortal coil of Nald'thal, a dead dragon, so that Nald'thal may use the dragon to kill and fill the underworld with souls.Â
Cults...why can't they ever have nice goals.Â
That's my idea right now. Figured cult would be easy to attract living people for its monitary focus and its "Crows" are actually corpses with dead souls infused back into them that don't rot due to magic.
If anyone makes a "Crow", just make Crow the last name and have something  related to a doorway or building as the first name.
Example "Atrium Crow"
Or if you want to rp a living member...just show up. They take all true believers once they pass the entrance ritual. Which requires the applicant murder someone. Yay cults!
So that's all I have atm. Let me know what you think.
Oh,if you join cult, half the face of the character who is a member has to be tattooed black to show devotion to the two parts of nald'thal.

Now I'm caught between wanting to make an alt for a crow (maybe a leader) and going "crow" hunting with Franz.

Can I be a Crow? I promise I don't want to just beat everyone up again.

Mention of Nald'thal makes me think that my Davoren would be interested in all of this, as he looks into whatever he can of said deity considering his backstory. The concept of corpses infused with souls of the dead also hits VERY close to home, so I'll consider some manner of participation in this event considering the themes that have been mentioned. >^.^<

Had a couple pm's about this so thought to post here.
People asked me about details of making a crow. Honestly, I hadn't gotten to in depth with yet but  figured a Crow wouldn't remember exactly whom they were while alive, just have personality traits and snips of memories. They have to obey the one whom returned them to the corpse and subdued colors of skin and hair was recommended to me in one pm and I think that's a good idea. So far, tons of interest in this one. I'll try to get more ready as soon as able.

How the heck did I miss your second post in this thread.
RE: So. . . you know that thing I do occasionally? Round 3? - Coatleque - 08-12-2014
Well... I volunteered us both. But Roen has better qualifications to be a sacrifice.
(as far as I know)
Also, the title of this thread keeps making me think of this...
