  1. “Yes, but is he the same as he was? Or is he something else, another consciousness? Do you recognize him? Deification is not possible, young one. It ends only in the loss of one’s self - an equivalent to death, among immortals.”
  2. “Yours… and the ‘elf’. His is interesting, if not exactly relevant. I believe the shape” - she points to Trinn’s forehead - “is a crown.” She frowns. ”You do not know of what you speak. Godhood is not so simple as that. Gods cannot die, no matter what they say.”
  3. She showed him his brand - the brand of an eagle. “Strange bird,” she muttered. @Argenti “They wish to believe they are.”
  4. “Your mark is one of… a flame. Just a flame.” She shows him.
  5. “No, Adari is… well, it’s rather complicated, from what I can tell. I’ve been studying it. The baseline is that it is where - not the Render, though these people are intent on mixing them up - where Aelorin imprisoned Aeia.” “Quite…” ”Yes, I knew that. Do you wish to go next?”
  6. Actually, it’ll be half a year, since two of them are linked, (making there only 3 peeps) AND only two people need to die for the game to end.
  7. “No, they look… well, they evolved from Aeians, they aren’t aliens. But their closeness to the Adari has warped their bodies. They are tall, and have slightly blue skin. Other than that, it varies as much as any species.” @Spark of Hope “It’s… some sort of crown.” She looked distracted by it.
  8. “None at all. You?” The woman seemed to be studying the shape behind the mask. @Argenti ”We have blades. They may not be what you are used to, though. The dwarves prefer bludgeons, so you’ll be getting elven blades, taken in the war.” @TwinStorm “I have absolutely no idea. I’m hoping your brands might shed some light on that.”
  9. “Nope. I’m assuming you have combat training, then?” It was the form of a smiling mask. There was a shape behind it, but the shape was unclear.
  10. The Healer looked at her. “Now that’s an interesting brand.” She proffered the mirror, showing a smiling mask. “That’s what I’m guessing at. Who were your family?” “Well… I would tell you you’re about to be free, but… no. I still have use for yall.”
  11. It’s a slightly shifted symbol of the Dawn Empire.
  12. “Beats me!” She narrowed her eyes at Trinn’s brand, but said nothing. “Quite Perceptive! But no, if it’s anyone’s perception, it’s the Chaos.” “Cybernetics? Quite interesting. Come over here.” In the mirror, he saw a brand of [insert brand immabout to pull from character sheet] “Oh cheer up!”
  13. CRAP I MISSED THIS oop ”Your arrogance is astounding.” The smoke - and the fireball - disappeared. Aeon blinked forwards, not yet attacking, but testing his defenses again.
  14. Hhmm… I agree, but I also disagree. They aren’t going to follow the same technological path as we are - just look at Roshar. On the cusp of discovering electricity (Navani noting that “she needed to look into it”), yet already having flying machines. I think that there are large areas of functional overlap, and not everything in that overlap will be developed as electrical things, just as not everything in that overlap will be invested things.
  15. Actually, the reason China had that famine was because they simply pulled all their farmers away from farming and into industry. And the reason Japan was resource hungry was because they were an island. Lotsa silver there, but they weren’t like the British, who had rich coal and iron deposits all over. The thing is, yes, shifting a large portion of the work force is bad, but they weren’t actually technologically backwards. They had subways before the Malwish even appeared, so they already had people doing this. And the Malwish took great pains to give them their own technology, their own power systems, that they didn’t have to actually progress as far to get where they are.
  16. “Most definitely. You are out of the reach of most magics, it seems.” “The brands are actually different for each of you. They’ve been shifting while you slept, but they’ve stabilized now.” They arrived in a small room, and she extracted a mirror from some desk or another. “All right! Who’s first?”
  17. Well, he had a brand on his head, so he was taken by a guard. “That is the question! Yes it is. I was wondering if you could tell me what your Brands mean. Come with me.” She turned, and the guards pushed the group, now complete, after her. @I need to copy and paste the ping @CoderDrag0n8 @Argenti @Spark of Hope @Kaladin Stormcursed @TwinStorm @Just A Silvereye
