Exactly!  Assimilate.   Sanguis Astroism is like the Borg.  You will become us or die.

Unless, of course, they encounter Species 8472.

After all it's a roleplaying game.

Yeah, they'll suffer a bit for a while but then bounce back and 8472 shall be crushed by their uneasy allies, the Moot.

Rather, we will become you, and that will make us strong enough to kill you.

Sure, we sacrifice our whole identity to do it... but we still get to kill you.

As long as the Zuma don't worship the Bloodstars, the realms of humanity will be safe...

Well,  the Zuma have allowed SA to preach in their lands and to build shrines...  so the Zuma joining SA is not outside the realm of possibility!

The Zuma are as likely to be assimilated into SA as the Lurians are to stop their in-fighting. Longshot, to say the least :(

And yet what other religion has been granted permission to build shrines in Zuma territory?

And what religion has gone ahead and done it without permission, and had zero repercussions?

If you have built shrines in Zuma territory, now that the SA is running around the area the Zuma can actually LOCATE them. How long is that zero repercussions going to last if they inform the Zuma? If you are just referring to preaching cross over from preaching in adjoining regions, really is that something to crow about? If the Zuma declared war on you for preaching in your own regions the GM would simply have to go through yet another round of bitching.

It does seem odd to me that you would boast about this after being the number one critic of the Zuma a while back. If you're so very tired of them, maybe it's best not to do things like this that you *know* could provoke them? Much less boast about it on the forum where the Zuma GM can see if he bothers to look...

What would it matter. The GM is hardly going to use Forum knowledge to act in game, and besides which Vellos has already pointed out IG that his religion has a significant following among the Zuma. I think he got his RP Zuma Monks killed for that. Lesson to take away, the Masters don't like anything that distracts the Zuma from the duties.

That depends. The information might be there IG for the NPC characters to see, but the GM hasn't noticed or bothered to look.
