You know you have a poor social life when...

... you do a major edit of your webpage on Saturday
night.
But, to redeem myself (kinda), I am going out to a casino, in Niagara Falls tonight for my sisters birthday. We will be arriving there sometime around midnight, so she can actually go in (it is her 19th birthday). So, I am doing something, it just happens to be with my family.
So, now that we have that covered, the update. I added a nice little history/primer/teaser for the new online campaign. I am still trying to think up a nifty name. I know I am close, I just need some time to let my current ideas sit and marinate in my mind. The PC Roles for the two cultures are up. I guess I will start accepting applications for these roles as soon as possible. They are NOT first-come, first-serve! You can have some time to think and ponder, there is no rush! To ensure that, if two people pick two of the same roles as their first pick, neither of them can be that role, and both of the second picks are then looked at. I doubt there will be much of that, as there are 30 roles to choose from.
I hope to start playing the campaign at the end of May or beginning of June. I will continue writing things for the campaign and putting them up here. So, just think about the roles, start making a mental list of roles you would like, and as the campaign unfolds more, you can make your choice.
In other more interesting historical news, I found this rather interesting button:
Today in History:
05/07 Germany surrenders after WWII, 1945
05/07 May Day in United Kingdom
05/07* Omer 40th day
05/07 Johannes Brahms born in Hamburg, 1833
05/07 Tchaikowsky born, 1840

A small change

Talking to Graeme and thinking about two of my gods I
decided to make a small alteration.
The two gods Taos and Talcinia have had their domains slightly altered to better fit their descriptions.
If anyone thinks the deity descriptions need expansion, or the domains need a little editing, just post on the message board.

And there were Gods

The Averian deities have been created and described.
I would like to point out that the current description is a rough draft and will probably be edited, expanded, or changed as time goes on, but it is a basis for the religion. I don't think much will change. You can put your suggestions on the message board to change a god or add a god, or whatever.
This has taken me a full week to do because... well... I'm lazy. I hate coming up with names for things, and the god list sat on my desk for a long time before I got any. Thanks Holly for giving me names to build with. The Eori deities, which are supposed to be more straight forward, are coming up next. I have two and a half names out of eight. I'd like to say they will be done within a few days... but who knows.
One interesting this I have been tossing around is the Eori gods, which are all interconnected, have access to two or three domains that are specific to them, and a pool of domains. So, for example, a cleric of the Moon goddess has access to Dream and Fate domains, where the Sun goddess has access to Community and Glory, but both have access to Fey, Mysticism, Oracle etc. domains.
I still have to think about it, but that the gist.
