I'm thinking I might go for the nature seal. It might actualy be approriate for Daganev. (and its something I might be able to win)

Ok, I'm now going to try for Knowledge and Beauty also.

If you're looking for Lacostian's spirit, you needn't look far.

I might try for it. I haven't decided.

After myself, my next choices would be Kaervas and Ialie.

I'd so try for this, but I lack the time to commit to such a high-up role. Still debating... but if I do try, I'd go for the Knowledge Seal.

Soooo... any followers of the Tzek?

contrary to popular opinion, Arix has no wish to become a god. This will disappoint some, but will be of great relief to most of the general population. Also, I support Ialie for godhood

I'm planning on making a run at it. As far as I can determine I'm the only Magnagoran so far!

oh no

Hell, I'll give it a shot (out of spite). Selthar's getting really boring to play anyway (I want money, I want explosions, would you like me to mock you until your fragile ego stops being funny?) and I might as well give it a shot before fading away into another five months of doing nothing but keeping my shop stocked.

On the off chance I get a Seal, I'll try for it. ICly I can't do anything else. Ely as a Goddess wouldn't be nearly so devoted to Serenwilde as she is as a mortal, though, most likely. I have a feeling she'd value other things more, like "Wisdom" and "Balance", which might result in still favoring Serenwilde, but also might not. And yes, I do intend to try for the Seals, but... I just don't think there's much of a chance of my getting any of them.

If I did participate, I'd go for the Life Seal since Marina always preached about life's teachings. Also the Knowledge Seal, since her book she left with Gwynevere, The Reverant Philosophy, details the pathway to ascending beyond mortal norms and limitations, as well as adhereing to the virtues of meditation, compassion, healing, and balance.

Better decide if I'm gonna have a funeral for you or not Girl.

Not like I've not been mistaken before. (Although that 13 spheres become 12 was kinda mean).

I'm planning to try, but looking at the people already attempting to my chances seem slim

I'm torn between Ialie and Richter. Not that I'm around much. I'd normally just back Ialie, but Richter would be great to see too.

So, if any of you contestants are chosen, what kind of Gods/Goddesses will you play? Any aspects/symbols/possible Patronages in mind?

And the rest of you who aren't competing, what kind of Divine would you like to see?

I thought it would be neat to have sort of a vagabond Goddess of travelers, dealing with fortune/gambling, cunning and exploration. Not quite sure where that's coming from.

Shorlen would completely shed his physical form, merging his dreambody with his essence as Vestara did long ago, becoming Shoralien, the Spiritwalker. His first act would be to reach forth through the Dreaming to the Spirit Realm which lies beyond (according to the Hartstone), seeking the ancestral spirits of the Serenwilde.

Shorlen despises the Elder Gods, considering them as children who had everything given to them from the beginning, yet wrap themselves in arrogance thinking they are better than their "little cousins." He sees them as mortals with god complexes more than anything. As an Ascended God, Shorlen's arrogance in this regard would remain, and he would consider himself better than and aloof from the "Children who yet claim to be Elders."

Shoralien would, for his order, seek those who held true to their goals and ideals, and those who stood tall for what they believed in even if they were standing alone. He would approves of action over words, and despise those who only make excuses to cover for their complacency. He would expect his order members to fan the spark of Divinity within themselves, improving themselves and learning to handle their problems, trials, and crises, not necessarily by themselves, but at the same time, without relying on others to do it for them. He would approve most of those willing to act daringly when the situation calls for it.

Shorlen approves of the ideals of the Light, but hates Celest. He approves of the citizens of Magnagora, but hates the Taint. He loves the Serenwilde, but loathes the current complacency (and snuggliness) of her commune members. And he feels guilty towards Glomdoring for the many injustices that the Serenwilde has committed towards them (but as a mortal, feels he must respond whenever Glomdoring attacks the Serenwilde, perpetuating those injustices).

Keep talking.. wisdom .. balance... You might just get Accailia to get up there and fight for you!

Wish others would share their plans too, as I said on the other thread.

I'm going to try. I'd want to get the seal of Nature or Chaos. Depending on which I get would determine the goddess I would become, but if Nature (the one I want and I think I have the best shot at winning) I'd be a pro-life/nature and soldier hybrid. This is not "trees are pretty" but "anything untouched by mortal hands is beautiful." (Includes Celestia, all the races, Fae, Water Plane, valleys, Spirits etc.) combined with a "Soldiers rock" bit... kinda weird *shrug* I'll probably focus on one of them...
If I do (and I doubt I will) win the seal of Chaos, I'd be a life-loving free spirit thing.. I'd have to think a lot more on this one

Either way, it will come down to soldiering and nature being the premise and the defense of what you think to be natural the most important aspect of our existance

Pfft, her over your own father?



I didn't know anyone was interested in what we'd do if we became ascended.

I think I'd want to get personal business out of the way. Offload my rift and stockroom to my friends and family (a considerable fortune), I'd want to finish Deepnight and establish it either as an aether bubble or a nexus world (I know I'd have to find or create a nexus, but heck, I'd be a god), and then I'd probably hand the leadership over to someone capable. Even after a year or two of building the place, it was supposed to be for the players, and if the character would turn his eyes to more divine things, I'd let someone else run the place (but I'd try to patron it!).

After tying up the loose ends, ooc-ly I would start up some RP events, I've always loved doing that as a character, and the "more powa" thing would be fantas-ly, tic for it. IC, I'd have to battle and defeat the spirit that's inhabiting Richter, and then go onto seek the answers of the universe and be ready to save the Basin when needed. As for what kind of ideals I have, go read Roark's principles, or just click here.

If I win a Seal, I won't just give up in the staff of ascension part. I would try my best to win. So I guess, put my name in.

Selthar would retain his physical appearance and affection for the Serenwilde and aggressively uphold his own personal ideals of knowledge, preparation, and self-motivation, praising those who work to better themselves and being harsh to those who fail to put effort into the simplest of tasks. He would make himself available to all who need advice on activities or critiques on finished work and generally help the people of the Basin to help themselves.

Oh, he would also retain his sarcastic, caustic demeanor and become even more maddeningly superior. He would also delight in using his abilities to cause explosions of varying types (and would try to get a Hajamin's-lance-like custom zap to appear like an explosion) but would quickly get bored of that once he comes to grips with his Real Ultimate Power.

As a event-running player behind an RP God, I'd work hard to bring dynamic, player-driven events to Lusternia, as I am quite willing to do the little bit of extra work required to ensure it's done properly. I'd also be perfectly happy to listen to criticisms and respond to them fairly.
