Contact your most loyal, insane follower through the realm of dreams, and guide him through insane imagery that only a follower of Organis would understand. Instruct him to "gather followers for a grand future undertaking; the altar of Organis, infused with the powers of Transformation and Mutation. Perhaps even a village of our own, where we may keep to our own business in relative peace."

This will show we are not planning any immediate betrayal, and that we are going to mind our business. For now, lets play nice while defending our interests.

Soon... It will be time to reach out to the invaders. Not personally, but through our blessed follower and the Sons of Organis. I do believe that if we contact them and convince them we can aid them, we can turn the tables on Vahun, as I call him. For now, though, let us bolster our numbers and fortify our people so that we don't begin losing our few followers to 'unfortunate accidents' and such.


EDIT: The point of this is because we are DEFINITELY being watched. We need to begin implementing methods of communication that can't be 'tapped'.
Agreed. We should also Give those mollusk, sea critters sentience, give them a cool name, and convert them. The 2500 cost will be offset by the belief we will be raking in (sea critters are known to have dozens of children at a time). And when the time comes for us to break off from the pantheon, our naval power will be unmatched making it that much easier.

Noitar - Night
Noitar Baelik -  {Literally: Dance of Darkest Night} A nine-day ceremonial festival of great import across many lands. The ceremony surrounds the year's longest night, the final day in which the year is reborn. The actual Noitar Baelik festival consists of three parts, each spanning three days. The first three days are comprised of a great feast, symbolizing the preparation for a new Wintering, and the enjoyment of life while it still lasts, however weakened and wary. The three mid-days are split into certain ceremonies: the first day is a day of dedication to Hadrean god of War, physical and mental preparation for war. The second day is the actual Noitar Baelik, the Night of Battles, in which a massive battle is staged that symbolizes the War of the Ascended, the First Wintering, and the eternal struggle for change in this world. The third day is a day of reverence for the souls of the fallen, where Rhazzel is asked to guide the fallen. The final three days are the most moving of all... One the final three days, nine sacred bonfires are lit, three per day, while all the people feast in serene simplicity, on red wine and simple grain products (bread/cake/etc), to symbolize the simplicity and quiet vitality of a day, year, life reborn. As the bonfires are lit on each day, the festivities progressively grow to their apex on the third day of the third festival, the final ninth day, where the first new year's blessed unions, bloodpacts, and oaths are made, as thus being done on the first day of the true new year they bring fortune to their bearers. {Etc}

And, as Alekh tricked them into doing, the gods greatly stripped mortal creatures of their strength, who until that point were more-or-less demi-gods.)

Is it possible to change traits?


Also, how much belief (approximately) would it take to create creatures similar to the Pokémon, "Ditto"?

If our followers believe we are something for long enough, we will change traits. Example: All our worshipers, as well as non-worshipers, believe we hate chickens. After a time we will hate chickens.

Aye, good eye you've got there :)

So its between the personifications (what my words are called) of Ul'mare "The Seaborn", Bhae'rii "From Under/Below", and Escali, "To Rise Above

Escali is a connector but Ul'mare and Bhae'rii are civilization names, though Bhae'rii also functions as the actual word under/below.

Mutation and transformation is THE EXACT SAME THING. All mutation is just transformation at a cellular/structural level. :)

Dreams, on the other hand... Well, like insanity, dreams can be wild and free or bloody and hate-filled. Dreams is a fine realm, as even gods will dream... And as the god of dreams, we will peer into the mind of gods and men alike, we shall see their deepest fears and darkest desires, and we will know them for who they really are.

Hint hint. ;)

We are Organis, god of mutations, transformations, madness, dreams, reality manipulation, and infinite belief-holding.

But on a serious note, it would be good to have a run away backup plan. Instead of an awesome beard dimension, we can go for a lame space bubble. Any other ideas? Might also be good to plant a "bug" to spy on other gods, especially Valahun. Gotta be extremely careful if we do this though, since that jerkwad could easily figure it out and feed us false information. Valahun will smell our presence within any random spy bugs we send. Would be best to hide it in something that already has our aura. Could hide it in an artifact, but that's already suspicious. Could hide it in some form of decoration, but then we'd need to explain our aura. Could always skip on that.

As a show of friendship and faith, offer to create beautiful symmetrical/intricate designs on tapestries to decorate the gods chambers and palace, ones imbued with magic that will never burn, fade or tear, a sign of Organis' presence in the pantheon and also a show that we wish to permanently become one with all. Expend a tiny bit of energy to be able to peer through the central region of the tapestry, as the insane spirals will naturally make it difficult to focus on the center. (I'll give design ideas, here's an old, incomplete example of my symmetry symbol-work: http://maximilian-aurea.deviantart.com/art/Chaotic-Origins-134661047 Please click the image to zoom in, its too big for the initial display. The original was actually a huge optical illusion, that one is too but its difficult to see at that size.)

I agree with the magical spying tapestries but also make it so that they're impossible to wear/tear/destroy/burn so that there's an explainable aura. Also make the sentient clam things and I vote for Escali.

Ha, I found a thing. Anyway, I doubt that Valahun will trust us to make tapestry. We could maybe bless one of our followers with super surrealism art powers and "lend his talent to the walls" while he's not painting our own religious paintings for recruitment. Could even make it someone else's idea. Then again, Valahun still probably won't trust us. Ever.

I go with Escali for typing's sake.

After we do our other actions we should also see what we can dig up about the other pantheon members. Are they gods, spirits, or personifications? What are they aligned to? What are their names? How big is their following? And how are politics between the pantheon?
If we know these things we could corrupt the very gods themselves. After all, the followers affect the followed ;D. Also don't forget, this planet and these gods are only few of thousands. Untold universes await our twisted mind after we conquer this one.

How much belief would it take to make a portal into the void twice the size of a whale?
