Kill and blacklist anyone who disagrees! HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH! It is not for lack of trying that Canonism is “fake” with no magical or “lore” backing. Canonism is one of the only truly player run and created religions on the server, and staff ******* hates it. All attempts at giving canonism magic systems or any form of mystical elements have been denied, despite Canonism being older than any artificial admagic system and using lore which ACTUALLY OCCURED on the server. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIROS 2708 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Once again I have to defend Canonism... honestly guys, the Holy Scrolls are released now, so everyone should know better than to accuse it of being Catholic copypasta. Canonism developed naturally over the course of RL years of roleplay. The various saints are real characters with interesting life stories and the theology is more Jewish/Muslim than it is Christian. Set aside your OOC biases: it’s probably the most successful, longest-lasting attempt at an entirely player-run institution—it is by numbers the most popular religion on the map and it has 0 sources of magical power and no staff endorsement. It is so appealing because it’s the cumulative work of dozens of people who were interested enough to write their own takes on it, and to advocate for their particular theology in-character, rather than making up a new religion whole-cloth and getting it approved by the LT. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canonism was literally a copy pasta of the bible back in Asulon, the development you mention happened through “years” of people RP’ing as crusaders. Ie, the order of St.Amyas (edit: St.Lucien too) and the white lotus which used it as an excuse to go kill elves. The very foundation for Canonism is an RL religion and the bible at that, this is confirmed by Mogroka and everyone who was there back in Asulon and Aegis will say so (edit: Assuming they’re not being dishonest or their memory hasn’t been corrupted through the years). If I take a Harry Potter book and spend years turning it into a fanfic it is still a Harry Potter book, the only difference is that that book is now a horribly written fanfic. You’re welcome to debate me on this but you won’t change my mind. Edited July 6, 2020 by drfate786 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, so when something starts out being rp’ed differently nearly 8 years ago, it is therefore never allowed to develop naturally and change. I especially like the logic that if something started out as a fanfiction of something, no matter how much new information and different worldbuilding occurs, it is still a fanfiction. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReveredOwl 5297 Share Posted July 6, 2020 I don’t get! If you don’t like canonism don’t rp it, if you want it gone do something about it in rp rather than ooc threads. Why does it matter how it was founded or how people roleplayed it, it is roleplay! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
