Oh wait, I just realised something. @Lugubrious Nature is more of a Domain than a (Portfolio)

@Dawnscroll Have you considered a god of Order? I'd say that is a definite gap

Or any of the usual elements: Water, Fire, Earth, no god of Darkness, Seasons. A god of night has nothing to do with stars or the sun - it is about the lack of such things. Most nights here where I live have no stars.

@Kho No idea how I'd play such a portfolio, or even what that portfolio would fall under. Or what I could tie it in... and far would this 'Order' extend? Universal Order? Civilizations?

I mean, it's definately an option I'm willing to take, but I'm a bit clueless as to how far to run with it. It's like you told me "God of Ham Sandwhiches."

@Dawnscroll Have you considered a god of Order? I'd say that is a definite gap

On this topic, some other domains I see as holes in our makeshift pantheon:

-Matter (Earth)
-Water (Oceans)
-Emotions (Greed, Ambition, etc.) This was my pick in the last RP and it was fun.
-Skill (Crafting, Farming, Tools)
-Evil/Hell/Occult (Demons)
-Nature (Hunting)

Edit: ninja'd slightly by Kho's edit. Although I did figure that Zephyrion, as god of change and air, would cover seasons.

I suppose that with such a broad and encompassing domain and portfolio, I could yield some room or share some overlapping powers with one or two gods.

@Dawnscroll Order is as wide as Chaos. Chaos is universal chaos, order is universal order: (Balance), (Law), (Morals), (Permanence), (Stability), (Punishment), (Retribution) etc.

On @Cyclone's point, I'd say 'Crafting' is in fact a Domain - it is as wide as 'Creation', except for non-living things

We also don't have:

Seasons
Darkness
Fire
Earth
Lo~~ve

@Kho

The forge god/god of artisans is a common theme throughout religions, but are there really gods of carpentry, masonry, axe-making, and things so specific?

I suppose crafting could be a domain, but I'd feel like it's a stretch.

@Kho I'd be willing to roll with it. Though such definition might place him at odds with some of the other gods. If I did him, he might be more of a "Natural Order/Mine is the only law/Singularity through subjugstion" type. As opposed to the "Keep the peace/Harmony" type of Order. Any qualms with that?

@Cyclone When I say crafting I mean it in its widest sense: things like forging, woodwork, metal work, the crafting of anything whatsoever, short of living beings, comes under crafting. So an automaton would come under something that is crafted - it even goes into the realms of inventiveness

@Dawnscroll Definitely!! People forget that fascism is all about Law and Order - it's not necessarily good or nice or pleasant, but it's definitely orderly and legal

Oh wait, I just realised something. @Lugubrious Nature is more of a Domain than a (Portfolio)

If you insist, I can have it be 'Life - Wilderness', though Slough can still be used to make civilized life.

Of course, a god of Life is a god of Life no matter their specific (Portfolio)
I can see her expanding into the Nature Domain in future too

@Dawnscroll Btw if you don't want Order or any of the others, Nature is in fact available - though note that Lugu may also expand into it as the IC trudges along

@Kho Eh, I'm really on the Order train now. Calm, Cold, Calculating, Utterly Ruthless. The god who could take a mortal, hold them, and then wait in one place for years as he watched that person die of old.age, kept alive all this time by the gods magic. One who sees millenia ad an insignificant blink of the eye.

Whew, at last

@Dawnscroll I hope we're good now. Friends?

@Kho (IPA: əl jæŋ) is just Ull's name in phonetics xD It's not part of his actual name.

@Vec I know xPP I thought I'll keep it in there

I leave for 8 hours and three new pages have formed!

Hael: Vulamera, ??? - Knowledge (Mind)

Actually, Kho, I've decided that I want to flip those around. Now it's Mind (Knowledge). I realize that we previously had knowledge as a domain, and I was planning on taking it as one, but I now realize that Mind is a more diverse and complex domain with far more potential for (portfolios) than Knowledge.

To name a few:
-Memories (thus allowing my Goddess to begin to remember past lives, and reveal the past lives of other Gods to them, which I can imagine becoming a major plot point)
-Insanity (which could also fit into Chaos, I admit)
-Sentience (lending some extra power of the sentient creations. But don't worry, I'll probably still ask before I manipulate large numbers of any other player's sentients ;D )

And so on.

Plus, it just makes more sense. Knowledge can't exist without a mind to comprehend it: by definition, knowledge is a mind's understanding of factual information. So a mind isn't a subset of knowledge, because knowledge is simply one of many functions of the mind.

If you want, I can still take Knowledge as the domain and Mind as the portfolio, but I'll inevitably fight you hard on it

Working on editing Daegon as we speak, and also @Hael, taking mind as a domain might lessen the animosity between our characters.
