Mysterious stranger with no avatar, maybe you should put an image of toe shoes to give yourself some personality and help us remember who you are.

H_C, I'll fix the avatar soon... I just need a new haircut... and good idea right there but curious about how you'd make it happen. I lurked quite a bit but I'm basically new around here so no worries about alternate accounts.
R_L, How you go about that? Which population/time period would your godhood subdue first?

Probably start in Western Europe around 800 CE, after aquainting myself better with at least Latin, and probably Old Norse as well, as both were widely spoken. I'd make sure to bring some modern weaponry, probably an assault carbine (an AK-74 would probably be best simply because of its sturdiness) for personal defense and to act as an intimidation factor. I would absorb as much knowledge on shipbuilding, early iron mining techniques, basic metallurgy, and animal husbandry beforehand, and try to find out some common gestures among extant Midwestern indigenous North American groups before I set out. I would then get horses and goats, as well as tools for metalworking and other pursuits. These would be loaded onto the finest ship I can have made, crewed by the most reliable and intelligent people I can find, ideally both men and women, all in good health. The next step would be to sail to North America and contact the Mound Builder cultures and try to instate myself as a person of power while working to mold a civilization that would last long enough and become advanced enough to give Columbus a warm, painful welcome. Deification isn't really the right term for my goal, I suppose. Being responsible for the rise of an enlightened and humane civilization as close to perfect as I can get it and therefore being known for the rest of human history in this new alternate universe is a closer description.

so your plan is to act out the novel Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus?
It worked![/quote]Note I never said WHEN I would make it stop from existing :emp: so your plan is to act out the novel Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus? :orly:

Never heard of it. The plan is to manipulate history to (hopefully) create an ideal society that will do what humanity was born to do. Setting things up so that European colonization of the Americas meets very firm opposition is part of that.

here's a thing from amazon:
Sponsored by the organization Pastwatch, which uses a machine called TruSite II to view the past in remarkable detail, the "Columbus Project" is headed by Tagiri, whose TruSite viewing of the horrors of slavery has prompted her to revise the famed explorer's agenda. Tagiri sends into the past her daughter, Diko, a Mayan descendent named Hunahpu and a man named Kemal, a prickly sort whose initial skepticism is transformed into a fierce commitment to change the past. Armed with devices from the future, the three return to 1492, determined to transform Columbus from a gold-seeking pirate into a proponent of world peace and global unity.
infact one of things they do is sabotage Columbus' ships so he can't retrun
