Do whatever you like! You're a God you don't have to follow no stinkin' rules. Use your omnipotence to create a giant block of cheese blocking the protagonist's path, make the donkey speak with a British accent, or give the protagonist the most delicious cake in existence. Your imagination is the limit! And my imagination too probably.
Prologue
NOT YOUR TYPICAL GOD QUEST

Mess with a fictional world using your God powers. Watch as the world shifts and changes as a result of your actions and laugh as reality itself bends to your will. You are not a player in the game, you are the MASTER. There are an infinite amount of worlds throughout the universes, so you must decide which world you'll mess with. There is a world with magical warriors that protect the common people from hidden creatures of evil, a world where a tyrannical emperor that has conquered the galaxy is being fought by a rebel group, and worlds with no supernatural or magical elements to them.​

Which world do you pick?

[ ] Magical Warriors Protect!
It is the year 20XX, creatures formed from humanity's darkest desires materialize during the night and inflict terror and harm to people. These creatures known as 'Shadowmons' are invisible to most of humanity, except for a group of magical warriors that has made it their duty to protect humanity. Will the magical warriors succeed in their battle against the Shadowsmons?
[ ] Tyrant En Garde!
In the far future of ten-thousand one (10,001) there is only one ruler, the tyrannical emperor of the galaxy known as Beel. Beel rules the galaxy with an iron fist and punishes any dissidents by transforming them into grotesque creatures that he uses in his army; however, a rebel group has risen up against him. Will this rebel group succeed or will they fall to Beel's forces.
[ ] Flowers For You
Amanda Rose is the owner of a flower shop. She spends her days caring for her flowers and reading books by the fire-place, however when an old bully of hers applies for a job in her flower shop will it bloom into something more or will it wither away?
[ ] Write-in (Add a description for the world.)

Note: This quest will primarily be about messing with the world so actions are mostly Write-in. Please use a plan format. (I have no idea what I'm doing lol, but this should turn out just fiiiiine.)
 
[X] Modern Monsters
Monsters and dungeons have slowly started to appear around the world. With modern technology starting to become less effective against the monsters humanity's only hope are the few people gaining magical and mystical abilities but what will the people due to adapt to this changing world?
 
[X] Modern Monsters

I was thinking about this exact world type so thanks for saving me the effort Jbot.
 
[X] Modern Monsters

One idea for a scenario like this would be that the dungeons come from meteors. Or, to be more precise, the world started experiencing meteor showers with some of those meteors being "dungeon seeds" that would drain energy from the planet (or harvest fear, biomass, etc from the area), spawn monsters, terraform the planet, etc.

So the dungeons are known to be an outside context problem for the world and people really shouldn't be trying to farm them for loot. I mean, some dungeons might have been captured and are bribing greedy humans with magic gems or resources they get from draining the planet... but it would just be a delaying tactic until the dungeon can spawn a few thousand bulletproof monsters, release a plague, spawn a few child dungeons outside containment, or whatever else it needs to free itself.

Or the dungeons can actually be "tamed" but they are still draining the planet while enriching greedy humans that protect it and will eventually mess up the world if not dealt with.

So... kind of a metaphor for natural disasters, climate change, capitalism, etc. Some dungeons are clearly destructive and heroes can band together to destroy them with no issues, others might have people claiming them as property to profit off them while the dungeon still does damage to society at large.

wow, that sounds much more philosophical and better than my idea....

what I was thinking of doing was that
several worlds from different planes started to merge (there would be demons,dwarves,elves,a larger earth,magic,ki/chi/life energy/etc),this at first was just that some laws/things started to move (mana particles or whatever we decide magic allows,the now being able to use ki/chi/life energy,monsters and dungeons).

I still haven't decided what the dungeons would be (they could be from simple places that accumulated energy until they became conscious or seeds planted by one of the races to later conquer this new world...I don't know).
 
Entering the world
ENTERING THE WORLD

The most famous Door in Seoul, 'Hell's Door.'
Fifty years ago mysterious doors appeared all over the world. These doors made of metal and engraved with mysterious symbols and runes sparked worldwide discussion. What are these doors? Why did they appear? What lay within? Nations sent research expeditions into these doors and discovered labyrinths that housed fearsome creatures, monsters and even mythical beings. Few researchers sent inside returned, but those who do returned changed forever in ways no one can describe or understand.



The first known human to venture within these strange gates was a Japanese scientist named Kurogiri. He left Japan on an exploratory expedition to discover more about the gate in Korea called the Gates of Hell. The man, Kurogiri spent months within and returned bearing strange powers and knowledge gained from his journeys. His findings proved to be valuable, and he became something of a legend among the scientific community. His research eventually led him to believe that the strange metallic doors were portals leading to a realm beyond death and that it was connected somehow to another reality.



With this discovery, people rushed to the doors hoping to gain powers for themselves. Some succeeded and some failed in their attempts, resulting in widespread panic and fear in the streets as some of those who returned, abused their powers and used them in malicious means. With little time and fewer resources, the governments attempted to control the situation using the most expeditious means possible. They began building huge barriers to prevent anyone from entering those doors, only allowing people called the 'Dungeoneers' to enter to discover more about these doors and to report their findings.



It is this world that you entered. Will you nudge the events that happened or are you satisfied with this world?

[ ] Yes, I am satisfied.
[ ] No (Write-in)

Note: I've come up with a nifty mechanic that I call the 'Nudge-the-events-that-happened-wazoo' (The name is a WIP.) You see those numbers? You put that before your action so that you can pick a specific time in the story you want to intervene. Here's an example.
[X] Plan Bread
-[X] 1 Some of the researchers sent inside returned with animal-like features that they passed on to their descendants.
-[X] 3 The Dungeoneers are overseen by an organization of Dungeoneers called the 'Dungeoneer Alliance' which is an international organization dedicated to finding out more about the doors.
-[X] Bread began popping out of the ground in places near the doors.
The actions that have no number basically happen after all of the events.

Btw, you can like design your own world if you want. Just make it like this.

[X] Plan: Dungeoneers and Bandits
-[X] 3 The Dungeoneers are overseen by an organization of Dungeoneers called the 'Dungeoneer Alliance' which is an international organization dedicated to finding out more about the doors.
-[X] 3 Despite the government's best efforts, not all the doors could be blocked off, allowing people who aren't Dungeoneers a chance to enter the doors and gain powers illegally. These people - who would come to be known as Bandits - then joined together to form the first 'Bandit Clans', groups of Bandits working together for personal gain and to shield each other from the law.
 
what they think of this:

-some of the scientists came back with unusual features (such as elongated and pointed ears,animal ears and tail apart from their normal ears,their diminished size).

- with the coming of the gates also came the appearance of mana particles that filled the world,this caused the appearance of new minerals,species and monsters..although they tend to be weaker than those found in the gates.

-if a large number of people die in a gate in a short time it is overloaded with "souls" and will explode, causing everything/part of what is behind it to appear on the earth...usually with catastrophic consequences.


-descendants of duungeoners awaken in their adolescence minor versions of their ancestors' power/have from birth a reserve of mana that strengthens them physically and allows them to learn minor and inferior versions of skills (the same applies to those who came out of the gates alive).

-there is a school where the descendants are prepared to enter the gates (they would be given theory, taught swordsmanship, skills, etc.).
 
[X] Plan Trolling Gods
-[X] 2 Some of the people who rushed to the dungeons returned with different powers than others. They said to have received powers from God-like beings. (The only God is us the rest are just personas that we use to troll the humans)

That's all I can think of right now I'll update this when I think of something else.

I'll think of something to add in next time. I wouldn't mind turning the dungeons into a form of xianxia cultivation for example whereby slaughtering the beasts inside you progress your cultivation (RPG cultivation?).
 
Initialization
[X] Plan: Dungeoneers and Bandits
INITIALIZATION

Dungeoneer Alliance + Bandit synergy
The Dungeoneer Alliance (D.A) is an international organization dedicated to investigating the mysteries of the doors. It was created by the International community as a response to the increasing number of Doors. However, with the appearance of 'Bandits' (Unauthorized people who managed to enter the Doors and obtain abilities illegally which they then abused) they have groups of dedicated Dungeoneers called 'Investigators' who sought to put an end to these bandits; however, despite their best attempts the bandits joined together in groups called 'Bandit Clans' for personal gain and to shield themselves from the Investigators.

Characters of Interest (Who will you choose to follow?)
In this world there are those whose destiny changes the world around them. Will you choose to focus on their journey or will you simply influence everything from afar?
Those you do not choose will still exist and may even be encountered during the course of this quest.


[] Cassandra 'Cas' Beiley
"It wasn't even that hard!"​
Catherine is a humble person, there's not a lot of things that she wants in life. She just wants money, a large mansion, and a harem of men to serve her every whim. Is that too much to ask for? After spending weeks dealing with bureaucratic nonsense and training she finally obtained her Dungeoneering license! Look out world, Cas is here.
Traits:
Genuinely talented - Cas finds a lot of things come to her easily.
Arrogant - Aren't I just the best?
Greedy - More, more, more!
Lustful - Why hello there~


[] Harvey West
"It's quite simple actually!"​
Even after 50 years the Doors remained an enigma. 'Scientists' have stopped going there, preferring to work at their laboratories instead letting the 'Dungeoneers' enter them instead who plundered the wealth and power from the Doors to show off to those gullible fools. Harvey knew that if he wants to unlock the mysteries of the Doors, he must delve into them himself.
Traits:
Genius - Harvey knows a lot of things
Spiteful - How dare them!
Researcher - Harvey will go out of his way to investigate strange things.
Creative - He once made a gun using a rock, a pipe, and some explosives.


[] Nicky Fall
"W-what is that?!"​
Nicky always managed to get out of dangerous situations despite her clumsiness and general cowardice. Normally she wouldn't have picked such a dangerous job; however it's the only job she could find that pays enough. She uses the money she earns from entering the doors to pay for her sister's medical bills though it's not enough as her sickness is slowly consuming her.
Traits:
Cowardly - Ahhh!
Determined - I need to do this.
Clumsy - Why are there so many invisible banana peels?!
Lucky - How did I even survive that?



[ ] Meow
"Meow"​
A... cat?
Traits:
Cat - Meow
Cute - Meow meow
Nightvision - Meow
Agile - Meoooow


[] Nobody.
They are not worth your time. You will not waste your time toying with an insignificant mortal.

The formatting on the last chapter was... terrible so I fixed it up a bit. I have no idea how the tally system works here. Thankfully there aren't that many people voting so counting the votes by hand is easy!

Picking the kinda non-meme option because greedy and lustful is interesting to me plus we can give her some sort of greedy djin power.
Dang the vote got closed before I can edit my options anyways if the cat wins we can do the classic giving the cat powers for they can help or find their perfect slave owner.

what do you think in case she wins, give her powers that will allow her to become the origin of what would be this universe's version of the extra'novel demons?
 
No I'm thinking of giving her djinn wish grating powers but starting out weak and she has to complete other's wishes to get stronger but because she's greedy she has to balance giving too powerful of a wish to the amount of power she will get back. Like if she is asked to give someone magic she has to choose how powerful the magic she grants because if it's too powerful she will use the power she would have gained to grant the person a stronger wish. It going to be up to Meanie how strong she starts out and how strong she is going to get.

Sorry for the long post but she could go devil or other wish granting creatures depending on how she acts.
