Sorry for the delay folks, I was running a VoIP game with some guildmates, and we just finished up a few minutes ago. As I was DMing, I couldn't really bounce back and forth here to post.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=233968.msg11506429#msg11506429">Quote from: Bloodied Porcelain on 01-08-2015, 19:56:00</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Is there a character sheet ready to go for us to use?

The Scion is actually the child of another deity, they renounce claim, and the adoption goes through.<br/><br/>The other is pure magic. I seem to recall one or two mythological stories where a semi-divine being sprung fully formed nito existance, and possibly another one who was born after being attached to their (male) parents leg for a while (I'm a bit fuzzier on that one though).<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=233968.msg11506562#msg11506562">Quote from: AndyZ on 01-08-2015, 21:07:24</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">In the RPG, virgins goddesses generally adopt.  A biological divine parent can renounce all claim to a child, and someone else can then step in and call dibs.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Yep.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=233968.msg11506629#msg11506629">Quote from: Bloodied Porcelain on 01-08-2015, 21:33:13</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I'm debating an author who writes under a male pseudonym.

Most of the info seems taken directly from the core rule book. <br/><br/>http://scion-dayone.wikidot.com/start<br/><br/>I am just ignoring the system-based stuff and looking at the lore and basic info.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Scion is a system game, yes, but this more a matter of the established background, which admittedly I am monkeying around with some, given the game proper is set in the modern world.<br/><br/>Going into any established setting, you do need to take a bit of time to figure out how things stand, and those who have a familiarity with the setting are at something of an advantage. That doesn't mean you can't learn what you need to enjoy playing in it.<br/><br/>Scion is one of my favourite settings, and I'm quite happy to help anyone who needs it, so they can bring their character properly to life within the setting.
