Ancient Egypt: The Age of Magic discussion

Any questions or requests, ask here.

What do you mean by request a deity?

If you want me to add a deity to the list, I've only written down a few of the several hundred out there!

Oh, I see! ^^ I'll tell you if I think of any.

Okay :)

May I request the deity Ahura Mazda? My character is a Zoroastrian and worships that god.

I'm sorry Ji_Mei :\ but I'm afraid the Ahura Mazada wasn't worshiped by anyone until 2,000 years later.

Crap! Oh, well. Nevermind. :P

Don't worry about it :)

I seriously facepalmed there. How could I forget the time period?!

Hahaha it's okay, it's only mentioned once in the beginning :) I can see why you'd forget.

Hmm... Then what is before Zoroastrianism? Do you remember?

I can't think of any, I looked online, and it says besides some scattered mythology, the earliest religion was Zoroastrian.

Then I guess for my travelling Arabian, he'll worship some vague deity or doesn't have one?

Either one, it's up to you on this point

Okeydokey. Well, I'll come back if I think of any real deity.

Okay ^_^

May I request Asman? I know it might state he is a Zoroastrian deity, but I researched it and it said that the god dates from before that.

Sure :) as long as it's a deity worshiped in the time period, it's fine!

great!

Nephthys?

Are you asking to for a deity or asking who the deity is?

asking :p sorry I didnt make it clearer. I know who she is though.

By the way, you might want to look up Nomes. The first Nome is in Egypt so you might want to make a folder for that.

Well, there's no need to ask. :) If you look under the Deities topic, Nephtys is there. And just to be clear, are you asking for the deity to be as a character or the deity of a character you're making?

deity of a character im making.

Ah, I see. ^^ Well, I can't wait to see what character you'll make.

All the Nomes were in Egypt, and welcome to the group! :)

Im probably going to do a hell of a lot of wrong things =)

o.o one sec lemme check the fandom...

Don't worry about it :) you'll get the hang of it and I'll help where I can.

And this isn't based off of the Red Pyramid series, but it certainly can be influenced from it. And it takes place in Ancient Egypt when the Nomes were only restricted to Egypt.

im just pointing it out so it doesnt look like im just doing things my way o-o by the way, fair warning, if the image doesnt work out its probably my computer and not the way i typed it cause my computer is a little wonky.

oooh...
i should have known *facepalm* the times are COMPLETELY different.

Don't worry about it ^_^ it's a fantastic series, and for any future chatting, please move to the Intros and Chatting thread so everyone can say hello!

ok =)
are they allowed to follow the path of the gods? Or no?

What is a Nome?

Yes they can :) if you want, read through the story line and completed characters for reference!

The Nomes were districts, kind of like states in the US

a Nome is basically a gathering place somewhere in the world for magicians

and thank you!

Ah, like the city-states in Greece?

No, like clubs...I think...GOOGLE IT O-O

They were districts like states governed by a novel who was loyal to the Pharaoh. In the Red Pyramid, they are factions of the magicians.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I see. Googled it and it did say it was like unto city-states, so both of us are right.

=D I LOVE GOOGLE!!!

It's a great site :) alright everyone, please move to the Intros and Chatting thread ^_^
