Servants of Oversoul [Turn 8: Quiet]
« on: November 28, 2013, 03:49:57 pm »


Six sparks awaken under the gaze of the Oversoul. Six gods born with awareness of their power, but not knowledge of its use.

Through experimentation, they must learn. Though the Oversoul's nature and aims are unknown and unknowable, its whims may be made clear from time to time. Those that fail can expect oblivion; for the Oversoul, even the power of a god is a candle that may be snuffed out or lit at will.

To sign up, you need a name and color... and both are optional. Color must be Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, or Purple, but is purely cosmetic, and in the event that several successful applicants choose the same color, one will get to keep it and the others will have to select or be assigned a new one.

I'll be taking six randomly selected applicants at first, with a waitlist. The Oversoul's patience might or might not be influenced by the size of the waitlist, and thus availability of new blood to replace the current rabble with.

Name: Eido Aeterno
Color: Blue
Description: He is the "father" of the Medium Overseers, and the controller of the Mediums and their Guardians. He is the one behind the mess that Zechariah created, and the one that Zechariah and Artemis both hate and seek to destroy. In his universe, he has control over everything that exists in Zechariah's universe, which causes Zechariah to resort to special glitches and tricks to defeat him.

This is his story, before the battle between Zechariah Dimikaelo and Eido Aeterno.

Man, what are you even doing? It's like you're trying to make a gary stu in every game you go in.

A gary stu is a male version of a mary sue, which is a fanfiction term for a character usually, but not always, an author stand in, who (tries to, in the case of RP's) takes over the plot and focuses all attention on themselves (Usually with an overly complicated backstory, impossible skill set and generally being 'ultra supah speshul') to the detriment of any other aspect of the story.

For instance, your entire backstory is just shoehorned in here with no thought to what Irony put in. Who the fuck is Zechariah? There's no Zechariah in the main post. There's no overseers. It's an empty void. There's nothing here. You don't have a backstory. In fact, half of that is apparently a Forwardstory?? How does that even make any sense at all?

Well, to explain it, I was stringing together multiple characters from multiple RTDs to create one big story. I'm not putting my character above everyone else's, and I'm sorry if it seems that way.

If you want I can stop. I just wanted to see what it would be like to have the characters interweave, and Zechariah doesn't come in until, well, billions of years later. He's just mentioned because he becomes an important part of Eido's character later on. In fact, most of the forwardstory I input is from either other RTD's that happen later in the timeline or in separate universes.

Again, I can stop if you want. Sorry to have bothered you with that.
