Playing God. (Only taking one)
« on: March 26, 2014, 08:35:12 pm »

Through out history gods have played large rolls in history. But what if you were at helm? Playing god and making decisions your way? Well, its just as easy as doing just that. First though, you must create your religion.

Name:
Holy Book:
Values:
What happens in the after life (if there is one)?:

(Please refrain from using a real religion.)

Name: Funebris
Holy Book: Of Funebris
Values: Loyalty, Death, Order, Neutrality
The Afterlife: Those who loyally serve Funebris are rewarded via eternal undeath. Their spirits are used as angels to do their Dark Mistress' bidding eternally. The bodies are used as soldiers during any crusades the goddess deems necessary.

[[I'm assuming here that there are other gods]]

(Yes, but they won't come into play just yet. Also, the name was meant to be the name of the religion, not the actual god, so whats the name of the religion?)

Now that your religion is set, how will you reveal yourself to your hopefully soon-to-be loyal subjects? The best way would be share your word unto a holy messiah. There are several good candidates to choose from. One is the ruler of a kingdom just starting on it's feet, another is a military commander, praised for his knowledge and strength, the last one is a tribal chieftain, beloved by his people for being kind and generous to all. Who will you choose?

Hm... If possible the Dark Mistress would prefer to seek out a candidate a little more feared but...

Tribal Chieftan because who wants to start off powerful?

The tribal chief it is! How will you tell the chief to spread you religion? What will you have him focus on when telling his tribe of your wisdom?

So does that mean now that someone is in, no one else can be?

The chieftain gather his tribe of almost 60 people and starts to tell him about you and your faith. Most go along with it, and join with him, but some don't quite believe yet.

Followers: 54

Just after converting, someone started to pray for your aid. The local farmer said his cows were dying mysteriously, and the number of stillborn calves increased. He asked you to please help keep her herd alive and growing. What will you do?

Investigate for diseases, if there is a disease, remove it, let the guy know you did it, reanimate the dead cows under our will and have them move away from the village, no need to let pestilence get a foothold here.

If not a disease, figure out what the problem is and fix it, do the same thing with the dead cows.

Not yet. We're just starting out. We want the first followers to be fanatically loyal. Fear does not inspire loyalty.

Also, give one of the undead cows to the chieftain as a symbol of power. Spread the other cows to the enemies of the tribe.
