To Build a Universe (A God Quest)

The Ancient Civilizations of our world. Greeks, Norse, Egyptian, Aztecs, and African.
God's never have a shelf life unless their demigods of some form or they get polymorphed or get killed or poisoned by some sap that's making a name for themselves.
I just want to find a way to make them truly immortal as their namesake not this halflife stuff.

I'm in agreement. I think if we do make a next batch of gods we need to include this person.
God of Medicine, Immortality, and Resurrection

However, If we can never find the room for it at least try to give means to extend their lives like say the ceramic magic for the magic-system this round.
 
I pray to you Ge'Eme. For I know you are the god that chooses the dice rolls of these events. I do not intend to take your name in vain. If you so wish to take this one request by me, I will never beseech your name out in prayer. Only ever give thanks from now on, until my natural death in this world. But, I must pray to you now. I'm aware of true immortality here, or in the future, but I seek your help in this endeavor nonetheless. I'm aware that the method I choose to try to delay your domain of death is folly, being under the domain of a mad god of magic, but nonetheless. I seek your help in this endeavor. I don't wish for you to help me in all of the magic systems I so prepare, only one of them. For it's a magic unlike any other. The Magic of Ceramics I truly hope will give you the power to live for an extended time if you so happen to wish in the future, and give the other gods a choice in that outcome as well. I know that this will not make you immortal, simply delay your deaths for a time, but I truly wish to help you gods, and as such. I pray to you Ge'Eme to ensure the Ceramic Magic can work in such a fashion. For I pray in your name The God of Fate, Mystery, Wind, and Death. Amen.

I would like to have messengers, because the insanity pair should also be invited to the meeting.

[] Ask Nodheia and Miona to create fish that will serve as messengers between the gods. And beacons in the void, that will guide the lost.
 
Okay So a couple of possible magics. Because, I am starting to feel uneasy about the open magic slots. I'll fill those 2 slots with these until someone can think of something better.

Architecture: While buildings are meant to be used for various purposes there is something useful throughout all of them. This magic proves to be just that, this allows you to perform a sort of telekinesis style magic inside the building itself. At the very basic level it can be used to lock or unlock doors, with more complex uses being, magical elevators, or items being made in house on command. Though of course any item made by this method won't be magical in it's own right not having to worry about making your own meal can prove to be very useful nevertheless. Though the items can only make what the user knows how to make.

Music: Music is the source of people's innate abilities. That is not quite accurate, many things can be accounted on the biological end of things. However those things that can't are often linked to the person's heart-song. This is their natural abilities. This typically is racial, however divine blessings or other outside interference might alter the song to account for such abilities. As this is an innate source of magic the song is often while not quite shared similar to those of their race, and the song is made through the birthing process that creates them. Rendering it impossible to make another magical song later on during their life. To employ these special Racial and Divine blessings more effectively singing, or even humming the song will boost their effects.

Painting: This magic is a teleportation style magic. Painting the portrait of a man or a scene will allow you to teleport an appropriate amount of mass equal to the quality of the portrait to that location This doesn't allow you to split an object into multiple constituent parts however no matter how you wish for it, the person responsible will have to do that themselves. They will typically be teleported to the nearest available open area. So they do not appear inside a wall. This can teleport people to the location provided the portrait is of significant quality.

The thing is, you don't have to vote for your own Write In. You are presenting your proposal, so it's not necessary.

And it's kinda wrong/inconsiderate for other people who are writing their Write In.
So, we present the write-ins, for other poeple to vote on.

This is the first time i've seen the 'don't vote for your own plan principle' in a quest. Might create an intersting dynamic, you might want to add this to the GM-stuff as you might otherwise be repeating this a few times as new players stream in.
 
Is this a presentable option

[] Create a massive multicolored castle for the gods to dwell and converse with each other with rooms designed to for each god specifically. In the center of the castle is a massive golden tree that produces delicious silver fruit for feasting.
-[] Discussion of their purpose in this world, and the reason why Nur created them. Telling them they have domain over the purviews Nur gave to them, and that they should use and create within those purviews as they see fit.
-[] discuss the rules of Hospitality, a set of rules that defines how the gods shall interact with each other and their future creations.
-[] ask them if they had any interesting ideas for lesser races.

Capiche! Thanks for the advice!

Of course it is! Well done!
 
Talking os a great idea.

EDIT:
Players who present a Write In can't vote. It's either one or the other.

Oh you meant it like this, deactivated my vote.

Doesn't it go against the whole creativity aspect of the magic god's domain and art itself to limit everyone to only one song based on their race?

How would this interact with paintings of things that don't exist in the real world? I think allowing artists to create illusions based on their paintings so that they may bring their art to life in the real world is more fitting of the art style.

-[X]Alchemy: Through the use of rituals, knowledge, and alchemical circles matter can be shaped by the whims and desires of those using the magic. Though a powerful magic it is limited by the users knowledge and amount of matter able to be transmuted. Human/sentient transmutation is unable to be done as the creation of life is under the purview of the gods. Thus if attempted the person will lose a part of themselves, but that does not mean the gods are cruel in exchange for the loss of apart of themselves they gain the ability to perform alchemy without rituals and alchemical circles.

I'm sorry, but I think that's wrong. The Very Fact You are presenting a write in means you need to vote for it. That's been true for every quest so far. It's not rude to others to vote for your own things, it's an expected activity. Those who don't have write-in's are those that vote for other people's write-ins. That's how it works, and if the person who created the write-in doesn't vote for it. Then they're saying that they don't believe that they're write-in is a valuable enough choice to actually vote for in the current climate. You only do that, when. A) You are trying to block another plan from gaining enough favor, by voting for a secondary lead. or B) When the plan you present you don't believe should win the vote, but it's still something that needs to be presented.

You really can't do this. You can vote for the meeting place or magic. With the capital option both of course. Since they're really only one write-in. However I don't believe you can vote for parts of both.

Thank you for writing this. Seriously. Now I can make art, illusions. Well paintings of things that don't exist would simply teleport you to the nearest place that's closest to it. But, I'll turn it an illusion style magic. Music being linked to one's self, one's aspirations and dreams, one's own personal power. Seems right for music. The way it demonstrates in this world of course is simply showing the benefits they have gained through their own birth to help them achieve that goal.
 
The magic system seem's very Shamanistic or Fae like, would be interesting seeing them develop as they commune with the spirit's or us on learning it.

I can credit you and the other guy if you want but I'm just combining the votes so there more easily seen

Nah, I'd really prefer if you guys don't write in plan formats. The turn before was an absolute mess, so don't take anything of it into account. If you write it in a format plan, counting the votes is hellish.

I don't want to be a cunt, but I still don't feel that's fair. At the end of the day, this is my game, so I wil tell you that voting for your own Write In is Vetoed.

This is written with a resolutory objective, and not with asshole intentions.

Frankly I can't understand you right now. So please tell why it's a bad thing that people vote for their own write-in's? Why is it rude?
