Do we have much in the way of elemental/material gods yet? Most of the applications so far seem themed around more intangible/esoteric principles, so a good solid-based god might be an idea.
Gonna be honest, that doesn't sound like freedom. Freedom means only changing when you want to! That's more just primordial chaos (which is fine! and fun!)
yeah, a lot of the gods seemed very "primordial" like they were the 1st gods so I kind of tried to go in the opposite direction
Chains for everyone!
..Man, what God RPs have you been too? The ones Ive tried usually ban it right off the bat, or the people that snatch it are too bumbling to do anything useful or remotely unique with it
Ah, luck might be interesting, but seas aren't my thing. I usually gravitate to Hope and Determination, sometimes Stars, and I did Monsters once. The playerbase closest to my area that time all left, sadly ;-;
If they can't struggle it makes them easier to eat!
I guess I've been lucky since most people I see with seem to self-nerf quite adequately (sometimes too much even). I mean, you could do stuff like time-speedup/slowdown, a race that grows younger as time passes until they're unborn and neat stuff like that, (undoing damage (time-warps, yay), sending people into the future to fight them later etc. etc.)..Man, what God RPs have you been too? The ones Ive been in usually ban it right off the bat, or the people that snatch it are too bumbling to do anything useful or remotely unique with it
Seas are great you plebeian. I'd be all for working together with a fate god to entangle everyone in Heaven's Laws of Destiny (chaaaains), if you want to go that way.
All are equal before my hunger! I devour those before me not for taste, nor enjoyment, but only to quell the endless emptiness within!
Messia, the Goddess of the Harvest, will strike you down before you can eat her crops!
I mean, you're free to overlap if you don't mind it (I know many people do mind though)
I did. It just left a bigger emptiness in its place.Why not eat the emptiness?
Yeesh, I think I know what the colonization race was like now, everybodys grabbing everything
Except no one is preventing you from settling the same land! Hooray?Yeesh, I think I know what the colonization race was like now, everybodys grabbing everything
(Pinging everyone for no real reason is always fun.)
Name: -Shen Zhi Shu
Origin: - Mortalborn
Domain: - Magic, Wisdom, Change
Symbol: -
Appearance: -
Backstory: -
Shen Zhi Shu is a powerful wizard, a mortal born god. He was born from a long line of sorcerers and sorceresses. There was a prophecy that the line of powerful magicians would end, so for many generations, each time a sorcerer or witch in the family died, they gave a portion of their spirit in a magical ceremony. Finally, when Shen Zhi Shu was born, he was born with all of the magic of his whole clan for many centuries in the past. However, the family line ended after the whole clan ended up being slaughtered by malevolent beings. Shen Zhi Shu wishes to rid the world of these demon like monsters who massacred his clan and possibly start a long line of demi gods and remake his clan into a powerful influence over the world again.

Name: Neon
Origin: Mortalborn
Domain: God of Protection, Willpower, and Perseverance.
Symbol:Appearance: When not in human form, Neon takes the appearance of a large swirling mass of purple light in the shape of a wolf.
Backstory: Spoken of in reverent whispers is the legend of a being who discovered a strip of land to another world, but there were no treasures of land to be had, only an endless horde of creatures that were destined to sweep over the land and destroy everything, consuming all the life in the land with their magical weapons, and all but one of the group who discovered the strip of land retreaded, dooming the land to be destroyed so that they may save themselves, all but one, the kindest of them, who swore that he would protect all that he could, and is said to have held back the hoard for years, fighting the creatures and their foul magics by turning their own weapons against them, each of their deaths empowering him with more and more magic, changing him little by little, until he had ascended to the level only attained by the gods. He is said to be watching over those he protected even to this day, waiting for the day he must step forward and drive back the End of Days once more.

Domain: - Chaos, Evolution, Consumption, Conflict
Symbol: -Appearance: -Backstory: - An aspect of Serenity brought under her control to drive forward the evolution of the world. Arda Nova is a being primarily concerned with making sure that life doesn't stagnate and keeps evolving.

Name: - Vath'Ulgra
Origin: - Divineborn
Domain: - Evil, Monsters, Destruction, Sin, Want
Backstory: - There is fierce debate as to why Serenity would bring Vath'Ulgra into existence. Some say she had some degree of evil within herself and when purging it the evil took a life of it's own. Some say that she saw that some evil would always exist and needed a representation. Some say it was just something that had to happen, less creation become unbalanced. Whatever the case, the dark goddess was expelled from Serenity in the earliest days of creation, possibly making her Serenity's first offspring, and ever since has served her as a near-literal devil's advocate for her and the other aspects. Only Serenity could have her loyalty, so with her gone the wicked being now seeks to cover all the land in her darkness and re-craft it to her fancy.

Backstory:
I AM THE LAST OF THE TRUEBORN. HEIR TO SERENITY'S DYING WILL.
I WAS ENTROPY, DEATH, THE END. BORN TO SLEEP, UNTIL CREATION'S FINAL DAY.
BUT THE FIRST FEARED ME. THEY WISHED AN ETERNITY IN WHICH TO RULE.
AND SO I WAS BETRAYED.
ASSAULTED, MAIMED, AND CAST DOWN BY THOSE THAT SHOULD HAVE GUARDED MY REST.
BUT DESPITE THEIR EFFORTS AND BELIEFS, NOT SLAIN.
I SURVIVED, WOKEN BY THE DAMAGE BUT MUTILATED BEYOND RECOVERY. FORCED TO CHANGE, THAT I MIGHT ESCAPE DEATH.
NO LONGER ENTROPY. NO LONGER DEATH. NO LONGER THE END.
I AM HUNGER UNENDING, DEVOURING EVEN MY OWN NAME.
I AM GROWTH UNCHECKED, SPREADING CORRUPTION TO THE STARS THEMSELVES.
I AM CHANGE ETERNAL, REBORN EACH MOMENT TO BETTER SPREAD AND DEVOUR.
I AM THE DEVOURER. THE NAMELESS HUNGER. THE UNHOLY CONSUMPTION.
AND I SEE YOU, MORTAL. TASTE THE PAIN IN YOUR HEART.
YOU DESIRE POWER, TO TAKE YOUR REVENGE. TO DESTROY THOSE WHO WRONGED YOU.
AND SMALL AS IT IS, I RECOGNISE YOUR PAIN.
WORSHIP ME, AND I SHALL GRANT YOU STRENGTH.
JOIN WITH ME, AND I SHALL EASE YOUR AGONY.
OFFER ME YOUR SOUL, AND WE SHALL DEVOUR THIS CORRUPT AND BROKEN WORLD...
Name: Zehir

Symbol:
Ner silver, rena blue; canta nastar alta tera, raven feather with grey highlights; canta nastar nica, curled olive branch; indil woven with stems of feathers, circular olivine braid.

Backstory: Zehir was born from those parts of Serenity that were left parched and barren, with a simple objective: "till everything is desert". Patient like a rock, Zehir cares for the deserts and slowly expands them, one grain at a time, till all are be one.
More god of the forest (and implicitly the places beyond civilization and order,) versus a 'lawbringer' or w/e.
*grumps, shakes walking stick at*
I mean I could have just edited it in afterwards to prevent pinging, but that's at least like, three more clicks!
Oh for fucks sake--No more domains for me I guess
Eh.. God of Wanderers I guess? Stories?
Curse you--Coyote, Nox!
I had a few concepts in mind.
Playercap is 20 and we're at around 11-13 I believe, so probably?
There is a Co-GM and 10 players per GM is possible given standard capabilities, if a bit overloaded.Huh.. Is uh.. Is the GM going to be able to handle 20 players? A lot of the sheets seem kinda thin, too
