VIDEO; I want to play a game
Who: the Iron Bull and YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: If you wanna find him in the gym on the Iskaulit, sure!
When: Late Monday night, because when you can't sleep, but it's just because you're thinking of home, you do shitposts in the middle of the night.
[ It's pretty clear from the sheen of sweat across the Bull's considerable shoulders, he's been working out even if it weren't obvious he was in the gym of the Iskaulit at the time. He takes a seat on a bench as the feed turns on and he smiles amicably at the fleet. ]
Hey! So, back home, me and the boys used to play a game when we were on the road. It's not easy to carry around a table around for cards just to have somebody get pissed and knock it over. [ He shakes his head. ] Anyway, here's how you play: you figure out the weirdest, most badass monster you and think of, right, and then you pit it against somebody else's, and you figure out who would win in a fight. Then, the loser has to come up with something that could beat the winner, or somebody else does. Whatever works. Sometimes there's fights.
[ He rolls his shoulders in a shrug. ]
That's the fun part, anyway. Okay, I'll go first: How about...a... [ He looks thoughtful. He's not going for the dragon first off. That's sort of like cheating. ] ...a wyvern, but with wings that let it fly in short bursts sort of like a chicken...and, uh...a gaze that can turn things to stone if its held too long.
[ This is a come at 'em thing! Feel free to post your own, threadjack with rebuttals, arguments, your own "games". Have fun! ]

A part of me is unconvinced Voyevoda ever existed, but I know she did. We have written and digital records now that talk about how intelligent and skilled she was. Men of all make and backgrounds fell to their knees before her.

You're not alone.

If I could help you out, I would.

[He chuckles, though. He's never told Psycho he used to be a spy. That's what made a spy good, after all.]
The god of spies?

I think...Anansi would fit. The clever spider. He was especially fond of word games.
Re: video
The elves have a god like that back home. Fen'harel.

Fen'harel. Fen...harel... [He mutters it a couple of more times under his breath.] Interesting combination of sounds. What kind of people are the elves to have a trickster god?
video
[He shrugs.]
I don't know. They're just people, like any other.

[He makes a thoughtful noise.] All the pride in the world still turns to dust after the flesh and bone give in. If more people had learned that in my life, I might have lived to see old age.
