    Hah Palando and Alatar the Ishtar or "Blue Wizards" from Tolkien. I approve of this Leo.

    This needs to be run as a dnd campaign on here, this would be an epic story told within the context of the citizens of Icarus or the surrounding lands.

    • @nightcatarts
      @nightcatarts 5 років тому +6

      I think this game should be marketed for exactly that sort of thing; building a world in which further stories can be told using different, more granular, RPG rulesets. The fact that the worldbuilding is collaborative at every stage would give the players (assuming this is the first step of a campaign with the same group) a stronger connection to their characters' world than might be possible if it's created purely by a GM, and it would take some of the workload off them too.

    Woah, that's deep. The civilization lives on the back of a cosmic manta. The inhabitants worship it and that is manifested in the form of tattoos on their own backs. "We live on the back of He (or She, if you prefer), and He lives on the backs of us." Full circle.

    • @MrLeoZombie
      @MrLeoZombie 5 років тому +1

      We are all connected in the great hoop that never ends. As for the fin cities, they wouldn't feel it because the manta is so big that that the wave is spread out over an incredibly vast distance.

    I like the play and the back and forth with each other about how to play. It's not like some of the other content where it is more of a talk-show. Much more of a game play feeling while watching this. Great job! Thanks for the inspiration! This is what I like to see and learn from to bring back to my channel's content when we do a more talk show based session on Legend of the Five Rings.

    Okay, I'm about 30 minutes in and this keeps bugging me. Astrology and Astrologers are those who look at the stars for fortune telling. They pay attention to astrological signs and try to use the formation of the planets to predict peoples futures or simply future events. This has very little to nothing to do with math.
    Astronomy and Astronomers are those who look to the stars and are able to see the distances, find out what space holds, and observe things such as star movements, black holes, and planets. They have interests in space travel, planetary habitation, and cosmic events. They deal in science and mathematics.
    Please, Ivan and Becca, learn the correct term!
