You know I just thought of something.

Greek and Norse mythology both have pantheons of gods that honestly live rather normal lives.
They have their own houses and semi-responsibilities. They get into petty fight over mortals that nobody honestly cares about, they're constantly dealing with frost giants messing with their shit.

Why has nobody made an RP of this? It's perfect. It's practically a sitcom of its own.

MEET THE GREEEEEKS!

I, for one, frequently have problems with frost giants.

[Kadzar]

It's not just Greek and Norse; all polytheistic religions have that. Really, all mythology is is the story of super-powerful beings fucking up the cosmos for petty bullshit reasons.

And I would be totally up for an RP of that.

You guys have problems with frost giants?

I haven't had problems since I figured out that they either count as 'wild animals' due to their ferocity, 'aquatic creatures' due to their ice anatomy, or 'robbers' because they're trying to take my crap, so I just cast the spell built to stop them and continued with my life.



On a more serious note, I always thought that polytheistic myths were cool because they were about hugely powerful dudes beating the stuffing out of each other in creative and painful ways or about them doing wacky, spur-of-the-moment stuff to save people/places/other gods, rather than (in the monotheistic style) some lonely guy who thinks that people who don't like them should get electrocuted or eaten by locusts.

Pretty sure we've already had at least one or two RPs/RTDs like that, it's just that they all fall into the same spiral of escalation because unlike fictional all-too-human deities, forumgoers prone to munchkinery aren't going to be stalwart defenders of the status quo. Or, y'know, not abusing power to the utmost.

It's my dad's birthday party! 

So much family, so much alcohol.

Yay fun. Yay 15-year-old drunk cousins.

[KingofstarrySkies]

wait what

underage drinking...

Niiiice.

[Tawa]

It's Europe.

Drinking ages are different. I think that Germany and France don't have them, although I may be wrong.

I decided on what happens when an unstoppable force hits an immovable object. Use Risk rules, defender wins. Easy.

I solved a problem today!

[Descan]

I figured an antimatter explosion resulted :v

[Worldmaster27]

That's only if a one or twenty is rolled.

[Tawa]

No, no, the universe has a +22 modifier, so it's only if a twenty or a negative 11 is rolled.

[BFEL]

I just got sigged. Like for reals sigged, not just put into the sigtext thread.
By LSP.


IMMA BE FAMOUS!

*bfel now knows how those white trash people feel when they get on COPS and are all happy about it
