This is a place to send your prayers to the Fourth god. He may not always respond, or he may respond in ways you don’t expect, but he is always listening.

Speak, he hears you.

OOC note:  As of April 2020, threads with the gods will be capped at three NPC replies! Please keep this in mind when writing god prayers to make sure you get everything you need out of the thread.It’s also possible to handwave prayers by titling your comment HANDWAVED PRAYER. Handwaved prayers lack our usual flourish, but you can expect a faster response!

As of February 2024, god prayers will be handwaved only. Please only submit a prayer if you have a question for either god which needs answering in order to progress your character's arc within Ryslig. If this is something you need to tier up within the god boon system, or just to set up a player plot in general, please don't hesitate to submit a prayer about it! You may shorten it down to an OOC summary of what your character is asking. This will allow any of our helper mods to reply much faster, without having to dig into the specifics of either god's personality/writing quirks. Should this limitation be lifted again in the future, this note will be removed.

[Thanks to Javert, Atem's figured out how to get humans to do what he wants.

It takes some fine-tuned finagling of his tier-2 powers -- he's got to make them hallucinate very specific things -- but it's possible. They have to think it's their own idea, to do what he wants...

It would be hellish, if they ever woke up, and realized their lives for the last few weeks have been lies.

But they lost their games to him...they're greedy, violent, uncontrolled. People like that didn't disappear just because Bavan's afraid of monsters now. He'd have killed them and fed them to his boyfriend and his lion if they weren't being used for this.

The one in Haftesal (violent, dishonest, allowing others in her life to take the fall for her crimes) is already smashing canisters, convinced what she has in her hand is a slipper, and what she's smacking is a spider. An eye that, until a few minutes ago, let Atem see what was happening is daubed on the stone wall in drying water: it's already stopped functioning, it's almost impossible to tell it was there...but someone who's real quick, and knows what to look for, might spot it and know who's behind this.

With any luck, that's drawn Elias's attention elsewhere.

It's a second human who wanders into the arcade, his eyes unseeing, his ears unhearing. He (spoiled rich, immoderate, entitled, selfish) thinks he's in one of the burlesque clubs downtown, being led by the hand by someone giggling and impressed by his car, his watch, when actually what he has is a dead body carried piggyback, and Atem's sigil on a piece of paper in his breast pocket, newer than the water one. He makes his way into the arcade, to where Atem knows the canisters are, and once he finds them --

-- Atem switches.

He made sure this guy hit him hard enough to leave a mark, earlier this evening. The man finds himself handcuffed to a chair, in an empty basement full of dust-cover hidden devices for hurt and harm and death and, for some reason, a mini-fridge -- and Atem finds himself deep in enemy territory, inside of the arcade, in front of the canisters full of stolen Fog.

Time to get to work.
