Title: Cyric
Post by: Porkolt on July 01, 2009, 04:33:35 PM
I'm looking for some people willing to play a faithful of Cyric.
 
Send me a PM with a race/sex/class (it's all I need for now) and playing times.
 
I have no timeframe set, but it should be obvious that a quick death is a big possibility.

Isn't Cyric like, the Prince of Lies..?

Should set this up more privately, imo. Just a tip.

Let's just say that I don't automatically assume that people are going to metagame stuff.

I would hope people do not metagame this.

I played a priest of cyric once, and he actually interacted with another priest of Cyric, without any of both knowing about it. Alright, hey are liars, and pass as priests of other deities or even wizards, but there should be some kind of code for one to recognize another, in case of their lies is actually a disguise as another deity's priest. So, I think it is fine to talk OOCly about this before having the concept decided, this would explain the 'secret signs'. I'd actually join you if I did not have a main concept running.

Alright, 2 Cyrists, posibly one more... 2 of them new, the other one recient.. hmm ah and one of them appears in the gameworld when the account "porklot" logs in hmm good..

Right on a more serious tone:

Use secret accounts for this, definitely.

I dislike Cyric, <.<. But he has had some awesome characters.

Hope you enjoy yourselves.

Cyric is one of the coolest FR deities. Unfortunately, much like bane, he was saturated with people of ill repute and poor taste ruining many cyrician concepts into "LOL DIE 4 CYRIC".

If it can be pull offed well, its borderline epic. Best of luck.

For some strange reason, I tend to think of the Joker from the Batman series when ever I think of a follower of Cyric. That might not be all too bad, since like the Joker, you can start some sort of organization the causes havoc, but in this case, in the name of Cyric.

What I find interesting about the Joker is that he does what he does not because of money, wealth, or power, but because of a more nihilist desire to see the world burn around him. Of cause, he promises great wealth for anyone who joins him, but it is clear wealth is not his reason for doing the things he does, but to simply gain influence and the aid from other criminals, so that they can fulfill his desires and abnormal goals.

Anyhow, I would really like to try a follower of Cyric, but I'm not too good with playing evil characters. :(

Cyric is the god of intrigues ... And he, personally, caused almost an apocalypse only by doing intrigues, the 'spell plague' (in our game time, that is still to happen, of course). He is not nearly powerful as any of the gods that have fallen because of him. Cunning, smart and... INSANE! Definitely Joker like ... But with one difference. He is mostly successful. So, cyricist followers could be anything insane-like, for admiring him, or for fearing him ... But cyricist clerics, IMO, should be the cunniest sociopaths and psycopaths of men.
