Clockwork Cult

[wooden pike]

I'm curious about whether folks are interested in a Ratvar/Clockwork Cult, potentially with brass ships.

[potent saffron]

Honestly personally don't care for the ascetic looks like some old mspaint homestuck content. Elsewise indifferent.

[wooden pike]

ratvar himself looks wack, sure

i really like the aesthetics of the brass structures and tiles. i was thinking it might be cool to have a ship themed after a Clockwork Cult

[dusk mulch]

Ratvar has no power in the colossus sector, the monolith made sure of that

[zenith aurora]

Actually the idea of ratvar beefing with the monolith and having his ass whooped is honestly really interesting

And you could explain the presence of his cult being there via the dead body of their God taking residence in the Colossus because that's where they got their ass whooped

[dusk mulch]

Ratvar is timmy when it comes to Big Monolith

[zenith aurora]

Actually having multiple gods trying to team up on the monolith and losing would be sick as hell

With it also explaining the odd amount of Eldritch magic and faith magic being present within the Colossus

[dusk mulch]

Only thing that might be able to compete would be the Nar cult

[zenith aurora]

Sorry I forgot Eldridge magic is pretty much on a different tier my bad

[dusk mulch]

Than again Monolith might just dropkick that god aswell

[dusk mulch]

Chad ancient monolith from a bygone era vs chud new gods

Even the heretic gods need to team up to even stand a chance again the Monolith

[zenith aurora]

It would also give probable reasoning as to why the various cults would be generally hospitable to each other
As they are in the same boat meaning you could genuinely have players that are antagonistic
While also not being completely murder hobos

[zenith aurora]

They're main goal being bring back their gods

[dusk mulch]

Monolith is considered the Protagonist in this sector

[dusk mulch]

Ot all makes sense now in the lore

The Monolith went to town on the local galaxy’s gods and now all the cults are scrambling to bring them back

[zenith aurora]

Also with all of the cults being incredibly close to their gods in proximity
You could also give them a reasonable buff from their station counterparts considering there's going to be less PCS

[zenith aurora]

Player characters playing them

[dusk mulch]

The vein between bluespace and normal space is extremely weak in the colossus sector due to the Monolith’s presence

We just cooked up less generic lore than the lore team and their chatGPT

[zenith aurora]

It's only not generic because we actually have a actual presence within our lore it's pretty barebones in my opinion

[zenith aurora]

Presence as in actually having effects on the setting in modern time

[tribal smelt]

True god is Nar-Sie anyway.

[dusk mulch]

The Monolith has something to say about that

[wooden pike]

where can i find the monolith lore?
