Ary, I've been thinking off of what we talked about yesterday.  Is your domain more appropriately 'Decay'?




I had thought about that, but decided that decay does not adequately express the motive behind aging things. It is aging out of a desire to consume and fuel, instead of returning things to composite parts.

Thats it.  Time_Lord, there's going to be a trapped Darkness goddess (okay, another one) that is established in the first two posts, but as with Ary, duplications are fine (although I'd prefer it if we didn't get to triplicates... no need to get... carried away.)   Also, Darkness is a passive domain, so you'll need a more 'active' one as well.

Edit:  Oh, I see.  Yes, fear is certainly more active   Gonna be curious how you're going to work a scary darkness god into a game called 'sheltering darkness'   It shelters... the things that wish to eat you, perhaps  




I was planning to go for a tough love god who eventually uses manifestations of people's fears to force them to overcome them or the fears kill them. It's sort of Silent Hill-esque. I toyed with calling Judgement instead of Fear, but I figured the Fear domain would be a more primal domain which is good for a new god. Judgement is a bit more of a complex idea.

Edit: He might also punish people for other things too. Like I was planning to make ghouls as a punishement for a race that gives into gluttony.

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.

Awesome! Now to give this game a try.




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, pointed ears, luminescent yellow eyes, 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. Changed my passive Domain to Pride. I think it's more fitting than what I had before.

Veok, I was under the impression you were not playing for several months due to stuff you had to do IRL.  Is this a placeholder God for then, or have your plans changed?

The wiki is now updated with the current set of rules.  As you may have noticed, the IC thread is up and we will be beginning shortly.

If I'm not mistaken I think I see a Doctor. Laughing
