Because there was a max of 10, but we had 12 applications: meaning 2 would be kicked. But then you decided not to count you and Rtron as part of the 10 divines, which means that nobody had to be kicked.

As for when this RP will start, I'll do my all to have the first IC post up today. The first few posts will most likely be the creation of the universe and whatnot, which might be a bit slow, but a lot of space for character development. For more information on what I mean, see Vowzra's CS, it explains how a universe is to be created.

I would prefer not to, but if you want to skip all that, I can write up the creation in the first post and after that you can all jump into the politics and 'profundities' of immortal life xP

Ninja'd xD

@Venku Let me read up on your CS one last time and I'll give my answer

@Hael Damn, the Kraken had outwitted me xDDD

NO!

I personally would much prefer it if we could go through the creation of the universe post-by-post style.

I was going to do something dramatic where the first time Undasis' Kraken rears his ugly head is while the Woman is making the waters.

Besides, it's better for character development and all that stuff. Give us some time to explore the characters we've created, you know?

I agree, gives me the opportunity to really dive into the complex god that Arguis is, in his fun, childish way.

Does he even have any real creation powers (besides the basic ones we all have, I mean) or is he just there to make things a nightmare for the rest of us?

Just remember, what we currently have is an empty 'world'. Before we can begin creating things (or, indeed, destroying what has been creating or bringing about chaos, untold misery and destruction), we must create a 'universe' within this word. The universe is basically the skeleton which we can then begin building meat upon, the husk which we slowly fill up, the empty cell membrane which we must awaiting all those fascinating things which complete it.

For a universe to come about, all the gods must pool their power and create a 'big bang' kind effect. Once this big bang occurs, each god can then will things into being, such as galaxies, stars, planets etc. The power of the pooling together of energy, this moment of divine unity, as well as the big bang, carries their will forth and a universe is birthed which can then be built upon. For instance, once the universe is complete, we may find that something like water does not exist, or seasons, or fire. We can then go our separate ways and do as we like. While not necessary as the game develops, we might want to all focus on one planet first, and bring life to others later.

And now I feel a sudden spark of inspiration. Leave me be, minions, an IC post is in the making.

@Venku it's good, feel free to put it up. The real character will be created in-game, these CS's are just a base.

Firstly, glad I got accepted. This rpg seems so awesome and I am excited to be apart of it.

Second, I was wondering if it would be okay for a god not to create civilization? Could I potentially simply not create for the beginning and use my might just to level up to the point where I can start creating intelligent beings? I see Saron having a small group of followers over an entire civilization of people.

Remember civilizations can worship many gods at a time, as well. So even if Astarte created a race, they might end up worshiping a lot of gods instead of just her. In that sense, you could influence an existing civilization, created by another God, into worshiping you as well without having spent any amount of Might in creating them. This, of course, is done with the player's agreement.

Most of us won't be actually creating the world, meaning people like Undasis (who's gonna create a whole dang ocean) are going to be far behind in levels but have a much greater sphere of influence.

I can always retreat into the ocean and build up my levels before emerging as a humongous Kraken, afterall.

Yes. Yes you can.

You build it, Vestec will be there to corrupt it, try to destroy it, or both! If he gets really bored, he'll make his own race and start sending them to kill things.

Some Rather Important Rules


The Golden Rule: Thou Shalt Not Godmod
It's funny 'cause you're a god and all xD some people think that this means normal RPing rules don't apply, but they do.
There is a twist, however. You cannot take control of another player's god, that's basic. However, there is more space for battling for control when it comes to creations, and it can make for some very interesting play - imagine creating a hero who is then influenced by another god and doing some of their bidding before returning to your true path after you guide them once more etc.


The Fair-Warning Rule: Thou Shalt Give Fair Warning Before Influencing Another's Creation
It's all good being able to influence another god's creation, but before doing any such thing, you must tell the other player that you will be influencing said character, either in OOC or PM. They MUST agree before you post in the IC influencing their creation. If you believe another player is being unreasonable and you should be able to influence a certain character, then bring the matter to either myself or Rtron and we will mediate.


We're all here to have fun, these are the two most important rules in my view and I don't need to spell out every rule imaginable, because RPG rules are generally the same. Use your logic, come to the GMs if there are any issues.


I'm going to mention this now, perhaps unnecessarily. When we speak of 'Creations' here, we mean important creations. Heroes, specific monsters, entire races, major temples, etc. If you create a race that naturally reproduces, another God could play around with a faction of that population(until another God chases them off that is.) If Astartes creates an entire race of Ug the Cavemen, Saron can go convert a portion of them to his religion. Or turn them into forging cyclopes. Or just smite a portion of them. Maybe drive his own race to war with them. Whatever suits his fancy. Naturally though, this might irritate the creating God. Saron cannot, however, exterminate the entire race without Frettzo's permission.

In summary, you have to get permission to screw with major creations of a Player, but not for minor things. (If you feel something is minor, and the creator says it's major, talk to me or Kho. We'll mediate.)

Perhaps this is a good time to bring up a note on the Mermen and Kamiv:

The Merpeople are fairly free, but they are still rather strongly under the influence of the Sea God (being, you know, under the sea), but they are of their own will and I wouldn't mind up to 30 or 40 percent of them being converted to various other gods.

The Great Kamiv, on the other hand, are ultra-loyal. No more than a few percent of them could be converted to anything other than borderline slavery under the iron fist of the Kraken.

If the mega-loyalty of the Kamiv is a problem to anyone, let me know.
