Revision as of 18:34, 31 August 2019 by Nephilim (talk | contribs) (Longs)

The Symphony Unending (Also known as The Wind-That-Sings, The Voice Incandescent and The Sound Over The Wall) is a Heart-Lantern Wild God Hour created by Nephilim. He is the literal spirit of language and song, and back in the times of the Old Glory, he spoke for it.

Description

The Symphony is sound. It is the music of mortals, and of gods. It is the language of the Divine given form. He is associated with birds, frogs, wind and the sea.

Appearance

The Symphony is, quite literally, sound. He is made entirely of sound. What each person hears in his presence is different, and unique to their personality. However, it is divinity made sound, and its incomprehensible nature will slowly drive most mortals mad upon hearing it. The deaf are immune.

It can also, rarely, take visual forms. The two most common are that of a young man with the tail of a tadpole and golden skin, eyes and hair, who is dressed like an orchestra conductor, and a golden lyrebird made of sparkling wind.

Principles

Music, Joy, Light, Perseverance. And, to an extent, Control.

Worship

Cult

The Symphony is often worshipped by musicians, songwriters, public speakers and all those who make use of its gifts.

  The Gilded Society The primary cult worshipping the Wind-That-Sings is this one. It's mostly composed of lone artists seeking a greater purpose.

Mark

  1. Temptation: Desire: I have heard the Song of the Wind. It has charmed me, in a way i cannot comprehend.
  2. Dedication: Desire: I have decided to become a part of the Symphony Unending.

  1. Ascension: Desire: I've begun to notice sounds i couldn't before. I hear the lyrics of bird-songs and frog-croaks. I know this to be the First Mark.
  2. Ascension: Desire: My voice has begun to change, and now, others can only stare and obey when i speak. I hunger for the music i haven't heard.
  3. Ascension: Desire: I find myself drawn to the melody of the ocean's waves. My skin becomes soft, slippery, scaled. The face in the mirror appears ever young and vigorous.
  4. Ascension: Desire: I serenade the Moon awaiting my ascension. Bridges of sound and string unite my legs, and my hair twists into the curious shapes of a bird's wings.
  5. The Charmed Sea: I've become a part of the Voice Incandescent's choir. The spectators lay mesmerized by the slow, graceful movements of my tail swaying to the rhythm. For the first time, i am complete.

  2. Ascension: Desire: My voice has begun to change, and now, others can only stare and obey when i speak. I hunger for the music i haven't heard.
  3. Ascension: Desire: I find myself drawn to the melody of the marsh. My skin becomes slimy and full of colourful patterns as my legs begin to stretch...
  4. Ascension: Desire: I serenade the Moon awaiting my ascension. Webbing of sound and string unites my toes and fingers, and I've found new fins behind my ears.
  5. The Leaping Marsh: I've become a part of the Voice Incandescent's choir. The spectators stare in curiosity at my toad-eyes and the markings on my body. For the first time, i am complete.

  3. Ascension: Desire: I find myself drawn to the melody of the clouds. My skin becomes rough and scaly as i notice little patches of feathers throughout...
  4. Ascension: Desire: I serenade the Moon awaiting my ascension. Wings of sound and string spread from my hips, and i hold the ritual instruments in my new talons.
  5. The Boundless Sky: I've become a part of the Voice Incandescent's choir. The spectators stare in awe at the splendour of my complete wingspan, and the variety of my cries. For the first time, i am complete.

Longs

The Longs under the Symphony Unending have many universal traits - Their voices can claim any mortal or Long who hears them, they are infinitely beautiful, and they move with unnatural grace. However, there are three variations, entirely cosmetic -

The Siren-Like Long have fish tails, patches of scales, many fins and sharply smiles, as well as hair that twists into bird-wings.

The Frog-Like Long have colourful skin patterns, vocal sacs, webbed frog legs/hands and tadpole tails, as well as ear-fins.

The Avian-Like Long have wings that sprout from their hips, bird talons, patches of feathers and avian tails. They are capable of flight.

The Wind-That-Sings' Longs as a collective are also often called, as a collective, simply as "The Choir"

Locations

The Mansus

The Concert Hall

A colourful, 18th-century theatre in the Frontier. A sweet song can always be heard from within, even from beyond the Wall.
