Temporal Muck About OOC

Okay, stick with me as I pitch this rather convoluted idea your way. It's a little half baked at the moment so feel free to chip in, or toss some chips in, chocolate ones, yes, delicious.

Anyway, what if the children of the Bhaalspawn all met? If every timeline, of every romantic decision (including ones in mods, or hell, just your own fan fiction) of every possible version of the Bhaalspawn, all found themselves jutted through the parallel dimensions? What if one version of the Bhaalspawn who attained their godhood decided they wanted to be the only god and so went through all the dimensions killing the version of themself there and took their power for their own. Enough to return to their home plane and kill all the other gods, and then decides that one realm under their control simply wasn't enough? *cue "I want more" clip from that one song in the Little Mermaid*. Well it's pretty safe to assume that the gods in the other dimensions would get super nervous about this and all come to the same conclusion. The only way to kill this threat is to send someone that shares its blood. Since all the alternate bhaalspawn are dead, that leaves the kids.

Whether or not the kids are chartered, dropped, or geassed into this service would be up to you. I already proposed one possible set of kids in my Quiz entry, but I may or may not be using them in this RP. That'll depend on if you guys want me to. I'm very flexible that way.

The dimension your spawn-child (title courtesy of the Reiterative Department of Redundancy) is from can follow close to canon or not at all depending on the decisions the bhaalspawn in that one made. The one that they'll be thrown into will be one that has no original spawn-child or romance to speak of. It will be utterly canon right up until the ending. Not sure if having the bhaalspawn be good and then corrupted to evil due to becoming the next Bhaal, or them just being a slimey bastard(or ess?) from the start would be more interesting to follow.

Anyway, let me know if people are intersted. Once a few characters options and a good opening for this is hashed out one of us can start the RP proper.


EDIT: It occured to me after posting that the Bhaalspawn antagonist doesn't even need to be evil. What if they're doing this for all the best reasons and has just gotten a little power mad along the way? Or not mad at all. What if this Bhaalspawn really is the best thing for the worlds? MORAL DILEMAS AHOY!

It actually sounds pretty interesting. Unfortunately - or perhaps fortunately - my Bhaalspawn doesn't have any kids.

It does sound fun but I don't think I have time. But your posting made me think of a Xzar/Bhaalspawn offspring....only, not born the normal way. She's a clone crafted from the copious amounts of genetic material left behind by the Bhaalspawn's bloody journey. (Possibly with Monty DNA mixed in there too.) Mum the Goddess was Not Pleased.

Mum the Goddess was Not Pleased.

Well it's not as though he can knock her up now can he? It's a good thing he collected her toenails and used bandages while she was still a mortal, eh? Sure it might have been more effective if he'd just harvested her eggs, but that's a mite difficult to do without her noticing. A kidney, sure, that just requires a tub full of ice and a keen dagger, but eggs, those things are hard to spot.

"Yeah, Mum was pissed when she found out I existed. So pissed that Dad's lab still gets ninety-five percent of the lightning strikes on Athkatla and he and Uncle Monty installed a dynamo on the roof. It's not easy being half-ish god but does anyone care? No. I stick up posters of the Order of the Radiant Heart all over my bedroom and my parental authority figures don't even notice. So bogus, man."

Or expand the field to other Bhaalspawn. Sarevok/Shar-Teel offspring: terrifying beyond all reason, or terrifying beyond all reason?

Don't see why not. Still got bhaal blood in it.
