Five or so years ago, my DnD group and I split the cost of Campaign Cartographer among the six of us. The group is long gone now, but I ended up with the disk, and, subsequently, that is what I use!
updated swift foots profile to add a personality description though I am not entirely sure I captured the full immage I have of his personality it is at least prety decent for a first try
Boy, it's been a long time since I was a part of one of these...might as well join in, since there's time to leave an imprint on the world. Going with a concept suggested way back in the original dictatorial game, just a little before I got kicked out. A concept of silvery nights and black velvet, altered by time and changing ideas of course.
Name of God: Zeal Sens Starting Domain(s): Mischief (Active) Physical Appearance: A short humanoid figure, clad in an ornate mantle colored a dull black which extends down below her knees and covers both shoulders, and whose skin possesses a silvery sheen. She has long, black hair, which falls far below her waist, parted into two streams by a hairy tail that run long enough to wrap itself one and a half times around her, and constantly moves as though on its own accord. Her eyes are the sole spot of color on her, a bright gold, and which frequently glitter with excitement. Symbol: A winking face, which becomes a smiling face when seen from the right perspective. Titles: The Meddler; The Ever-Smiling; The Childish; The Welcoming; Revelator and Seeker. Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Fury, Hatred, Greed, Wisdom, Knowledge, Truth, Peace, Travel, Order
Still wondering what sort of Passive Domain ZS should have, if any. The concept is that of a benevolent trickster - More of a Puck than a Loki, an agent of change but who is not out to set the world on fire, merely paint it a different color. Given that, it could be one of a dozen things: Joy, Luck (though this I'm iffy on given it was my last god's main schtick), Curiosity, Passion, Change itself...hard to settle on a "modifier", so to speak; Elements don't fit and I'm not entirely sure what sort of concepts work as Passive domains. Any suggestions?
Mountain Cleave Rule: You can have any sort of fun, including broken, silly fun, so long as I get to have that fun too (e. g., if you can warp reality with your spells, I can cleave mountains with my blade).
Chaoss could be a decent passive, more of a side effect then a active agenda
Travel seams a odd ascension domain choice but thats just my veiw and I am very much sure you know the char better then I. anyhows For passive I would go with eather a side effect a part of the gods personality that they don't focus on, but again thats just me difrent thoughts difrent angles so on and so forth.
Chaos may be a little too entropic for ZS, I think. While one of the core parts of her personality would indeed be toying around with things and causing trouble for other gods, total confusion or impossibly fast and strange change wouldn't be her intention - Her actions would be more to keep the other gods entertained and herself amused than to wreak havoc upon their creations, if it makes any sense.
EDIT: Also, I'm not planning on running Travel as one of ZS's domains - I picked domain partners based either on antitheses or harmonies. As a permanently curious god, a god of Travel would make for a good partner for her - the other god would create the roads, and Zeal would travel down them and see where they led to.
Mountain Cleave Rule: You can have any sort of fun, including broken, silly fun, so long as I get to have that fun too (e. g., if you can warp reality with your spells, I can cleave mountains with my blade).
I thought of that section as the gods who aposed you, from what my understanding was the gods we being acended in pairs taregted to more or less aposing natures.
Could use a good sleification becouse I might well need to correct that section on my god.
Name of God: Altair Starting Domains: Undeath (active), Light (passive) Physical Appearance: A being of blinding light standing about eight feet in height. Usually he clothes himself in robes and a mask such that other divines can actually stand to look at him.
Symbol: A many-pronged sun Titles: Sightblinder, King of The Bleached Bone Proposed Partners: Life, Time, Darkness, Trechery, Secrets, Order.
Name of God: Kyoaag N'gaas Starting Domain(s): Time(Active), Fire(Passive) Physical Appearance: A spiral galaxy composed of roiling gray waters carrying embers of orange light. Rising and falling from the astral waves, like glaciers gasping for air and immediately crumbling to the depths, are titanic cubes of rough black glass through which one observes distant and colossal machinery working with distant booming clicks like clockwork. At the center lies an absence in the spiral sea, and in this maelstrom eye sits a planetoid of thick brown ropey flesh bound into an orb, speckled with burning orange eyes peering through myriad pupils. The flesh's rolling landscape is scarred and cavitated with black ossified pits. Symbol: A small 8 armed star
Name of God: Desha Starting Domain(s): Darkness & Fear Physical Appearance: Desha manifests himself as an opaque, black mist. If he feels that a more physical presence is necessary he will appear as seven foot tall robed, the robe is navy blue, figure wearing a white, porcelain mask lacking any eye holes. Symbol: A Black Spiral Titles: The Nightmare, The Darkness, He Who Hides in Darkness, Vice Eater Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Justice, Light, Ice/Cold, Hope, Moon
Name of God: Eago Starting Domain(s): Time, Fate Physical Appearance: A non-descript being in simple red robes that fall to just past his knees. His face is blank save for two blank pits that might be eyes. He is rather official-looking, with a two-peaked cap and a golden eagle pin attached to the front of his robes. Symbol: An eagle inscribed upon a gear or circle. The eagle is often depicted clutching the edge of the gear. Titles: Oath-maker, The Clockwork Strange, The Tick-Tock God Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Light, Justice, Order, Protection.
The flavour I'm going with this god is a sort of Divine Notary thing. I'm going to try and establish him as a neutral third party, and he'll handle matters of "divine paper-work", so to speak.
Oh! here we go again! I'll try some thing new, and some thing old.
Name of God: Balist Starting Domain(s): Magic (active), Moon (passive) Physical Appearance: He looks like an average, nondescript, plain white, brown hair, brown eyes, guy. He makes no moves to stand out, but he's also rarely gone unnoticed. Symbol: A loom on top of a full moon. Titles: The Weaver, The light at night Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Sun, darkness, light, knowledge, secrecy, magic
If shadow hasn't taken magic yet, I'd like to be it. I'm going for the god of magic in the moon schtick. Although, this might be one of the rare instances where having two or more of the same domain (magic being the case) wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. I think I'll have more on him later when I have more thought out. I'm just about ready to get this rolling!
Name: Vasa & Vion Domains: Life & Death Physical Appearance: Vasa and Vion are twins, the children of Altair and his wife. Vasa physical appearance takes after their father more than Vion, although her luminence is not nearly so overwhelming as his. In turn Vion takes aftr their mother. The physical features of both twins are nearly indistinguishable due to their illuminated or darkened visages. Beyond that, their physical appearance seems mundane (or as mundane as beings of light and darkness can be). It appears that they both favor long coats, but it is hard to tell anything beyond that.
Symbol: A tree with exposed roots.
Titles: The Twins Partners: Altair (undeath), Light and Darkness, Civilization, Time, Fear
Special Note: Although I'll be playing twins, they are just one god and will count as one for all mechanical and such purposes. Additionally, both Life and Death are seemingly active domains, but the plan is to ascend as life and immediately create Death. I was planning on darkness, but then others seemed interested, so I nixed that. Currently they don't have a passive domain. The reason for Life and Death to be connected in one god is that there is a little Pinky and the Brain in them. That is, their ultimate goal is to create immortal material life... but they keep failing, thereby resulting in death.
And as I noted, my graphics are a little... rip-offed. Some of you might recognize one or both of the twins. I just adjusted the thresholds for them.
Name of God: Kol'Gar Starting Domain(s): Order (active), Pride (passive) Physical Appearance: He is a lean but muscular man with staggeringly sharp facial features, stringy black hair, ocher skin, and a maw full of wickedly sharp fangs.
Symbol: A circlet-style crown Titles: The Marshal, Lord of the Blade Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Chaos, nature, beasts, entropy, disasters, freedom
I picture him to be sort of Thor-ish. A warrior god who is honest to a fault and somewhat naive, although also something of a tightwad with a questionable intellect (for a deity, at least).
EDIT: Found a fairly suitable image for his physical appearance, minus the horn-like protrusions. Also changed his title to reflect a more war-like nature.
Name of God: Swift foot Starting Domain(s): Active -knowledge Passive -Trickery Other domains of interest to him: Magic, Travel, Humility, Freedom,... Physical Appearance: He appears to be a relatively small Kobold, Usually wears tattered clothes of a slave; however for more formal appearances he dresses in fine cloth robes; Dark green almost black with deep purple boarders and crimson sleeve cuffs when in his robes he almost always has a sling staff in his right hand a nd a thick book in his left the appearance of both however changes. Symbol: His holy symbol is a gold coin with a book in the center and a sling staff crossed behind the book from the bottom right corner of the book with the top of the staff draped over the top left of the book. Favored weapon: Sling staff Titles: to be added later Proposed Ascension Domain Partners: Death, Fire, Decay, Order, Fear, Greed

Origins Though his true origins were lost to him, he has shattered memories of a place far away. Though seemingly little more then a faded dream he knew; without knowing how that these were real memories. He could recall creatures and beings that did not exist. Had memories he knew could not be his own. Though this did not bother him he wondered. Where had he truly come from. He could sense his purpose; knew what must be done. Yet nothing indicated where he truly came from or how he remembered things that simply were not. Perhaps there was something before the endless void, perhaps that never ending nothingness was not all he had known. These things mattered little now; yet often he dwells on what it all means while he rests. In the end he was here now, delivered from the nothingness by the awakening of time and the ripples that event sent threw the nothingness that both was and was not. He is here now and he would be sure that these memories, these times here in the land between the voids. These would not be lost to him, these he would not allow to slip away.
Personality To know swift is to know his dreams, for it is these dreams that drives his strongest will. The lost shattered memories of times that never happened and places that never were. It is the everything’s that are nothing and the nothings that are everything. He Remembers bits of a time and place far removed from the one he now finds himself born unto. It is these shattered memories that drive him to document the world for never again shell his knowledge and thoughts be lost to him in the nothings of tomorrow or the everything’s of yesterday. Long after time stops and the darkness once again envelopes the world his records will remain. Even obsessed as he is with gathering the knowledge’s of the world he remains carefree and lighthearted though prone to serious moments he prefers to do his best to enjoy life. He is not against light pranks or tricking someone into sharing a secret but he never lies or betrays his word without purpose and he knows little of the concepts of good and evil. To him things are not good nor are they evil. Though often time they may do good or evil they in and of themselves simply are. He finds solemn natured people as sad creatures and actively tries to teach them that there is no point to life if you are not able to enjoy the blessings that you were given. In truth though his personality shifts wildly in large a effect from his hours documenting the infinites that are everything’s existence. The knowing of everything life without truly knowing any of it effects his personality in unknowable ways. Though he dwells on this little. The past and the future matter little as long as it all gets documents and kept safe then life was simply intended to happen.
History History will start from post 1 after creation in the game..
creation, time, travel, secrecy, Ok so this part was a bit harder for me, but here is a basic reasoning for the few choices as well a basis for things not listed. again this was kind of hard but secrets rely heavily on having the knowledge of things that others do not and keeping that knowledge safe this seamed to fit well with my char as one of his prim goals is the protection of all knowledge and he feels that some knowledge should be documented but never shared. with travel again it fits well with his personality as without travel you can not hope to learn the knowledge’s of existence there are other more subtle reasons he find a affinity with travel perhaps even picking it up as a passive domain later. With time and creation they are the very core of his being for it is there domain that is documented, the happenings of time from beginning to end and all of creations and the happenings of those creations without these things there is no knowledge to document. it is for the end of these things that he struggles to document all so nothing will be lost to the dark void again.
I also listed a small list of domains that I think will be helpful or hindering to him in his pursuit of his primary active domain.
Past this though regardless of how his new form is created his divine essence has traveled the darkness’s of the void where things both our and our not for a long time now, he has memories and imagoes of a time and place but does not and will not ever be able to grasp at more then this. I went with this into his story because originally this was a god from my personal realm so it is of that place the scattered dreamlike images are though forever outside of his grasp, it gave me a driving purpose to the god and added a lot of flavor.
So as to the him part of swift foot he is a quirky little character more often then not light hearted he enjoys tricking people but only so far as they learn something from it for to him the entire point of trickery is to teach people a lesson whether that be humility through pranks and the like or some much more important lesson if his trickery does not help someone learn something then it is without point and therefore not worthy of his time.
Name of God: Althas Starting Domain(s): Strength (Active), Nature (Passive) Physical Appearance: A muscular human with green skin and leaves for hair, which in turn falls half way down his back.

Symbol: A stag staggering mid leap with an arrow clean through it's throat.
