cmorgan Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Resource space. Most of the brainstorming is in private, but just for fun (and if folks want to see some entertaining swearing make it in, help yourself): Bane's Bones Bane's Broken Bones Bhaal's Blood Bhaal's Burning Blood Bhaal's Skull Shar's Shadow Shar's Blackened Bodice Torm's Mailed Fist Torm's Swordhand Torm's Mighty Strike Torm's Blood Torm's Temper Mystra's Deep Gaze Mystra's Magical Mantle Waukeen's Avarice Kelemvor's Scythe Chauntea's Bounty Cyric's Poisonous Temper Cyric's Twisted Tongue Grumbar's Clay Fist Istishia's Flowing Robes Istishia's Ivory Globes Kelemvor's Dry Breath Kossuth's Burning Bones Lathander's Golden Poop Lathander's Shining Buttocks Mystra's Pale Cheeks Shar's Dark Tresses Silvanus' Wild Hair Silvanus' Armpits Sune's Breath Sune's Curves Sune's Golden Breasts Sune's Lengthy Legs Talos's Hideous Strength Tempus' Shield Tyr's Eyes and Arms Lolth's Cruel Fingernails Mask's Sinister Shadow Mask's Merciless Gaze Mask's Dark Heart Mask's Cruel Blade Beshaba's Bodacious Breasts Gond's Tools Gond's Gracious Gizmos Helm's Arms Ilmater's Blood Cryin' God's Tears Mielikki's Bow-arm Mielikki's Quick Temper Selûne's Bright Eyes Selûne's Silvery Tresses Tymora's Fortune Tymora's Fickle Coin Tymora's Bright Beauty Tymora's Tempesuous Tresses Tymora's Swift Toungue Umberlee's Fickle Breath Colder than Auril's Tits Azuth's Mighty Intellect Deneir's inscruitable Eyes Eldath's Flowing Hair Eldath's Elevated Eyebrows Lliira's Anklebones Loviatar's Insidious Tortures Malar's Sharp Teeth Milil's Golden Voice Shaundakul's Mighty Breath Talona's Pestilence Tiamat's Grasping Hands Torm's Unyeilding Fury Waukeen's Silver Tonggue Targus's Great Axe Targus's Terrible Temper Gargauth's Stern Brow Windstrom's Keen Eyes Assuran's Retribution Jergal's Mouldy Wrappings Bast's Beautiful Breasts Bast's Babbling Toungue Bast's Arching Brows Kara-Turan pantheon, for Yoshimo, from Wikipedia... Most people in the far eastern lands of Kara-Tur follow one of the two philosophical religions called "The Path of Enlightenment" and "The Way". In the island kingdom of Kozakura the worship of a large number of spirits collectively called "The Eight Million Gods" is predominant. The people of Shou Lung believe in the Celestial Empire headed by the * Celestial Emperor * Kwan Ying: Goddess of compassion, mercy, joy * Chan Cheng: God of war, the martial arts, combat, bravery * Ch'en Hsiang: God of poetry, music, literature * Chih Shih: God of history, lore, tradition * Ai Ch'hing: Goddess of love, marriage * Fa Kuan: God of justice * Hsing Yong: God of fortune, prosperity * Shi Chia: God of artificers, the arts Link to comment
the bigg Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Silvanus' Armpits are sorely missing from the list. Link to comment
cmorgan Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 Added... amusement factor alone makes it necessary Link to comment
the bigg Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Oh, you didn't get the in-joke. If you're bored and wish to see some flames, ask Sim and/or Domi about that. Link to comment
berelinde Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I've been using this list I found googling Forgotten Realms Idioms, but I'm stealing some of yours for variety. That list has things like Auril's kiss and Bane's blood and Gond's gears. Link to comment
cmorgan Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 I just found this: http://www.gallwey.com/fk/help.php?keyword...WATERDEEP+DEITY and this: http://www.gallwey.com/fk/help.php?keyword...TERDEEP+GENERAL which help out a bit, too - is there more cool stuff you recommend? (@the bigg - I'll ask someday ) EDIT: (@the bigg - never mind - found it. It was copied away in my old files, under "tender spots to avoid discussing". I should have titled it "reminders that good people who contribute great code and ideas to the community are also human". Or, "the past should not be resurrected". Perhaps I should put a reminder somewhere on Aran that if you are expecting BioWare standard, don't (though that should be obvious - BioWare characters do not swear, do not have RE-type content, and are designed for young teens rather than grown adults. And the SA is definitely in. I like it.) Link to comment
berelinde Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I'll send the link later, but that was the list. It's frustrating, trying to find good oaths. Didn't really need them until I started writing fanfic. Link to comment
BigRob Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'm sure I've seen "Helm's Beard" used in the game itself at one point, though perhaps that was a mod adding that. I've come up with a few myself (as well as a few in here), so I might as well share the small fruits of my brain. Azuth's Word Bhaal's Tears Lovitar's Lips Tempus' Teeth Chauntea's Rosy Cheeks, Umberlee's Teats Liira's Laugh Link to comment
cmorgan Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Cool! Consider them duly stolen and assimilated... (but you get readme credit for helping, of course ) Link to comment
