Now, now, Prophets make Scripture, that's how it works.
More specifically, Scripture is Written by Prophets who win - much like History. To be sure, Prophet Nauplius has not won yet. But neither has he lost, as demonstrated by the ever increasing reach of his Word. |

In the past, he has referenced actual Scripture.
Now he is claiming direct revelation from God. To my knowledge, none of what he has posted here has been affirmed by the Theology Council, and so it has no Scriptural validity. I've never heard of any Book of Bloodletting. It reeks of Sani Sabik influence and could be from the Apocrypha if he didn't just write it himself. It is heresy either way. |

N'maro Makari wrote:Purely out of curiosity, I would like to ask an expert:
Is Naupilus making up bits of scripture, or just horribly misinterpreting the existing one? First, a clarification. There is Scripture and then scripture. The former is approved texts, certified by the Theology Council. The latter is, well, any religious document. I know of some Federation polytheists that have their own set of scripture. The heretic's writing is not approved by the Theology Council. (No, I have not checked. I don't have to. Drinking blood is strictly forbidden.) Whether it's some Sani Sabik text, I do not know, as I do not read Sani Sabik texts.
Now, the Kingdom, where this heretic hails from, does not follow the Theology Council's edicts. They do, however, use much of the same Scripture as the Empire. Again, I do not read Kingdom texts, so I cannot delineate the difference. Whether this is a bit of Kingdom scripture, I do not know; though, I seriously doubt it. |

I'm serious though, I want the Sani Sabik to take him and test his mettle. I would be disappointed to see someone claiming to be a prophet get away without being thoroughly tested and tried. |

Ms. Savonarola,
The militias are regulated as part of CONCORD Assembly law under the terms of the CONCORD Emergency War Powers Act. They are unique in that they are not direct adjuncts of a national military, and operate solely to permit the conduct of conflict by capsuleers. The entry level into a militia either as an individual or as part of a corporate entity has been notoriously low, and as far as I'm aware there has been no requirements such as background checks in order to join a militia.
Such is the nature of capsuleers I suppose that hypothetically it's possible to have a heretic or blood raider in the 24IC; a gurista or provist in the Protectorate; an angel cartel or slaver in the TLF; or a serpentis and terrorist in the FDU. The militias are not permitted to conduct Quality Assurance as regards capsuleer assets to the same extent as a national Navy because CONCORD does not wish it to be so.

I'd say neither. Aggressive behaviour is more indicative of Exile use. Although some say that "Religion is the Booster of the masses." Which is utter rubbish, of course. Religion won't make your guns track quicker or soup-up your AAR.
While I'm here I'd like to add my congratulations to Praetorian Kernher for her victory over Pilot Nauplius in one-to-one frigate combat (best combat). It's good to see a strong woman actually taking action against her enemies, rather than all the hand-wringing and buck-passing that's been going on over the man. Frigateers, I salute you.

Why not?
Here is a little bit of (obviously a little bit silly) theology.
Throw a million ideas against a wall. The ones that stick obviously had god's influence backing them. Adopt those as your newest religious tenants.
Religions are ideas. Ideas are viruses. The successful ones propagate and influence. The unsuccessful ones die on the vine. |

The Book of Bloodletting, Chapter Three is True Scripture, lately revealed by God unto Nauplius, a Prophet of God. Those who have heard this Revelation and reject it abide under the wrath of God, for as the Scriptures say, "To know the true path, but yet, to never follow it. That is possibly the gravest sin." |

I admit to being inexperienced at social gatherings, much less hosting social gatherings; I have been a solo pilot for some time.
However, should God ask that I join with other Empyreans in the drinking of the blood GÇö the blood of those whom God has given over to destruction GÇö then I would obey the will of God.

Its gotta be something hallucinogenic at this point. When people start thinking they are prophets and writing scripture, more often than not they've been artificially sightseeing a bit too much. Let it rain across the sky. |

Why are you so mean Nauplius? And why must your entire motivational spectrum be completely dependant on a third party source? I'd understand if you were mean for the sake of it, but your entire justification is that someone else told you to.
Can't you just love God and his misanthropy in a peaceful and pious manner? Preferably inside the comfort of a secluded temple? |

Well there's the possibility of him using some other hallucinogenic, but I can't imagine a Tormentor pilot using Drop in preference to Exile. Drop would make his lasers turn a little quicker, but wouldn't help his two drones at all. Exile on the other hand wholly compliments his SAAR. Overall, he'd get more benefit from the Exile.
Do you use boosters, Pilot Nauplius? I mean, if you've gone as far as drinking blood, what harm is a performance enhancing psychotropic going to do, eh?
And that fight with Praetorian Kernher could've gone an entirely different way if you'd been able to squeeze another 10% out of your SAAR...

I was referring to recreational use, not the utility of boosters. This level of rambling points towards copious use outside of the pod. Let it rain across the sky. |

In a word, "yes." Tibby has the right of it - as is Tibby's Way. Everyone who tries gets a roll.
Tangentially, I understand you are no longer in the do goody business.
It is important to exercise all regions of the soul. Perhaps you might like to give Prophecy a try? While meeting everyone's levels of ethical and social preference presents challenges, I'm sure we can work out a programme to fit most any reasonable moral compass.
Granted, Delve may not be your thing (though I do hope the Sebiestor Harbinger of the Apocalypse is able to assist New Prophet Nauplius in finding a home away from home astride that lovely nebula). Perhaps the Center of Civilization is more to your liking? I am thinking that if the Antediluvians were able to prop open a great big wormhole, we should be able to prop open a little one - particularly a little one that appears otherwise stable.

I used Standard Drop Booster with some regularity back when I more commonly flew a Punisher.
I planned to resume use of some variant of Drop with the impending arrival of blue painted Punishers; perhaps I should consider Exile as well.
Thank you for your assistance in spreading the word of God with this advice, Pilot Denton; perhaps a holy and righteous God will show you some bit of mercy at the Judgement. Amen. Amarr Victor.

My meanness is nothing compared to that of a holy and righteous God, a God who as the Scriptures say burns with wrath and drowns sinners in their own blood. Yes, I am motivated by fear GÇö fear of Hell, that place to which God damns the Wicked, that place where God is glorified in the eternal torment of the sinners.
But there is hope (and let it not be said that my preaching is devoid of hope). For as God has made reprobate a people, the Minmatar Republic, he has also Chosen a people, the Amarr Empire. And in service to that Empire, bringing destruction upon the reprobates and drinking one part of their blood, leaving the other part as an offering to God, you might yourself find salvation. Amen. Amarr Victor.

My thanks for your blessing. You appear to be a competent and successful frigateer, PIlot Nauplius; Exile is a great compliment to any Amarr ship running active repair and will only bring you more success.
It would just so happen that Katanga Caravan has plenty of Synth and Standard Exile currently in stock. We have reasonable prices, delivery service and a stringent quality control programme to ensure our clients get a good product free of side-effects. And as a caravan of free-traders with no affiliation to any of the four major empires, you can feel reassured that you're not dealing with an enemy or covertly funding them.
I look forward to taking your order.

You do realize he murdered over a million helpless souls and then tried to get praised for it, right? Aside from him being a heretic, that alone is justification to execute him as many times as possible. Fide et honore. (OOC note: proper form of address is Lord Draconis.

It would seem that Naupilus is yet another fool prepared to sacrifice his soul in return for appearing to be edgy.
And yet he's about as edgy as a deflated sphere.
I guess his soul must have been a bit crap to start with. Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori. |
