1. Read the question:

"if Ozpin was cursed by gods, wouldn't that mean he's met them at some point?" Ozpin doesn't need to have met the gods to have been cursed by them, he played with their toys which may directly be linked to them. I'm not saying I don't think he met them, but that he didn't need to.

The way I see it, it depends on what Ozpin and Salem originally were:

Were they human? Was Salem's demise demanded because of something Ozpin helped her do? Was he responsible for her? That is a good point actually. I never thought of it that way. I would think that they were human at one point in time, well, maybe not Ozpin unless you count from before he was the wizard, in that case he could have been human. But that still brings up the question, what was Salem doing that needed to be stopped but wasn't and it had no effect on the world? Hold up a sec. I'm going to post a comment about making a new thread for this conversation.
