Atlantis brings back an unknown religion.

Modern Atlantis

With the rise of atlantis, a new (actually quote old) religion has spawned. There is more than one god, and god is not immortal. It is simply a monarchy. There is a supreme bloodline, born with divine power. One dies and retires after a certian age, and another is born. Nothing is immortal.


OOC: Idea in developing..i will add on later.

Truly facsinating... The scholars at The Arx would love to learn more about this Atlantean faith...

The first god, was the one who created the earth, the seas and the air. He blessed humans with the sentient ability, and created other animals to frolic freely on this planet. He was satisfied with this creation. After a while he realized that he would not live to see his creation grow. Therefor he spawned a son, splitting himself. He died soon after.
The second god gave humans the ability to make fire, and tools, as they had no fur to survive harsh, cold winters, and no claws or other natural tools to help them. With this creation they flourished, they expanded, and soon built civilizations and nations. The second god soon grew old, and followed the example that his father did, and split himself, much like his father, he died too.
The third one did not care much for the humans, so he left them alone. They didnt need his help. Already they were developing religions very different than the true one. He turned towards the seas, he created the whales, the fish, the sharks, and the islands. It was this time that Atlantis was brought forth, they are the only ones who practice this religion to this day.
The fourth god was an angry god, he was furious at the fact that no one worshipped him and his ancestors. By this time quite a few new religions have spawned. He created the disasters, the tidal waves, the earthquakes, the hurricanes, the volcanos and any other natural disaster you can think of. However in his carelessness, he wiped out the only place that did worship him, atlantis.
The fifth god thought himself immortal, was was quite violent. He often went down to earth and courted the women, However he also tended to get into many fights, because with his divine charm, he would steal wives from men. He was killed in a barfight by a man, with a silver dagger to the heart, the only way to kill a god. Because of this, murder, rape, and sodomy exists today.

Many other gods have come and gone, but it is these founding five that are most well remembered.

The philsophers of Drizzts Army would also like to study this religon if they are even allowed to go there.

Perhaps..We have yet to decide to open our island to the public yet...no one is allowed to exit or leave.

Understood, the phlisophers shall be patient for the final word from Alantis.

I am sure the Austians from the House of Philosphy would love to see this religion.

The scholars of Sonorus Capita would love to learn more about your religion so that we may spread understanding through our nation. When, and if, your nation ever becomes open, we would ove to come study ypur teachings.

Ah, my old cousin. We have grown differently in cultures, as when the earthquake struck my fugitives moved east near cyprus. Very intresting that you have kept the faith of the Ancient. Some few hundred years after our diaspara, we were met by an escaping group of Jews trying to leave the death grasp of Greece.

Since then we have intertwined with Judaism and exsist in that religion.

It still fills my heart with joy to know that our blood descendants still kept the tradition of the Elders.

OOC: Read my other thread for the answer...the one labeled "Should Atlantis go public"

The philisphoers hear the decision, so the Philisophers, Relis N'Don and Mehil V'lonh board a boat that sets shall to Alantis. They bring no modern equipment, only food, water, and their books, pens, and such.

(They are on a powerful sail boat, to respect the Alantians disgust of modern tech)
Modern Atlantis

We dont mind modern tech, just hate things that have to do with war, pollution, etc...
Drizzts Army
22-07-2004, 21:37
Well, our phlisophers also hate modern tech aswell like computers, cameras and all that. Basically they are almost like phlisophers in the Medevil times.
Modern Atlantis
22-07-2004, 22:43
As Drizzts philosophers unboard the boats, they are met with an somewhat empty reception. It seems to be quite empty. As the high council is the only one who has fully awoken. The citizens shall awaken soon. One of the high council members greet the team, and lead them towards the library, then walks off without saying another word.

Das Furer would like to send some of our schloers and historians to the isle of Atlantis if it is alright with your nation. We find your religion most facinating.

"You must have a pair of big brass ones under there, attempting to pass yourselves off as Atlantian, one of our trusted allies. They are a proud people and they take infringements on their culture seriously. I have met Atlantians... and you, sir, are no Atlantian."

Go to hell- thx.OOC: Please keep a clear line between OOC and IC speak. You just flamed both of us and we could get a warning put against you. I won't though.

What irritates me though is that every time a nation shows up that's similar to another they have to Ignore and play like they don't exist. Why don't you be one of the few to actually step up and RP that you weren't the first?

OOC:

Atlantian 1 flames Atlantian 2

Atlantian 2 flames back Atlantian 1

I smell a flame war here folks.

Place your bets!

By the way Modernized Atlantis, it's not a good idea to go off on people using curse words for something that they did in character. It's either going to get you invaded...or worse. *thinks of AMF*

OOC: There can be. I was just hoping that you would be able to RP with us without falling back on the overused multi-verse thing.

As far as I know, he's not even on Earth and is busy with other things, so you could take over Atlantis, but have his leaders pissed at your leaders... my general is just being his smartass self and telling your leaders this is not smart.

That post was made spur of the moment. Sorry guys. The bad stuff was deleated.

Now, Atlantis, you have a choice in front of you. Either, you can apoligize to me, or I can consiter that an IC threat, and have your nation blasted to kingdom come, and use the remains as a place to store my Jello. Your choice. I suggest you choose carfully.
