@Shadow Daedalus Maybe instead of War and Murder, you could think of other things associated with Death? For example, the Greeks had two gods of war - Athena, who represented the thoughtful and strategic side of war, and Ares, who represented the raw rage/passion of warfare. They also had two deities of death (whose names escape me) one had the cruel, painful side of death and the other presided over the peaceful side of death/relief of suffering. Maybe you can do something like that.

It's worth noting that in most classical theologies, gods had overlapping domains, so it's not really imperative that there be one and only god for a concept - especially because that concept is likely more complex than is normally represented in a deity, who are normally quite clearly driven (for example, having 2 greek gods of war because war has two distinct and fairly opposite aspects).

(If you're interested in overlapping deities, there are also Hera and Aphrodito, who both have the domain of love - Hera presides over monogamy and marriage and whatnot whereas Aphrodite presides over lust and passion)

Did I mention I'm taking university Classics? I'm a bit of a nerd about this stuff XD

@Obscene Symphony@Yennefer@MonkeyBusiness

I've decided to leave it where it lie and let Monkey take Death as his domain. on reflection, I've got too many RPs on the go and this whole debacle makes me feel like a petulant child. The God concept is something I'd love to do, but I simply don't have time. as such, I bid you all good night, It's 3am and I should really be asleep by now.

PS, Glad to see someone else as passionate about ancient mythology as I am, we're a rare breed

Aw, that's a shame. Good luck with your other RPs!

Since we're all shouting out domains, I'll like to say that I'm going to take a stab with the Murder domain with a subdomain of Knowledge and perhaps something else! Hope I don't disappoint with whatever comes out~

@LancerOfBlue Knowledge is a main domain and claimed. Murder you have already claimed and I have you listed for.

Whoever wants to play Death and War: We should team up and rule the gods as the four (three? I'll handle Famine) horsemen of the apocalypse XD

EDIT: Also if anyone is interested in fleshing out their god further, I'm putting a section in my sheet called "Associations" full of things that my god is associated with, but does not necessarily preside over as a domain. I feel like something like that would be useful to a lot of you!

@Obscene Symphony So with Shadow pulling out, I will reclaim Death as my own. You have my interest in an alliance.

I'm still in the process of fleshing out my people and culture, so nothing on the second half of the CS will be permanent. On another note, anyone want to join big daddy sea king?

Did someone say they were going to take secrets as a sub domain? Because right now Mischief/Secrets/Luck (Maybe on the luck, still unsure) looks like a pretty strong combo.

@MonkeyBusiness Bro, our characters are so similar. I wish I had gotten mine up first XD he's Pestilence with suffering and healing as minor domains, and the idea behind him was that he could inflict disease but also cure it... I've even got medicine as one of his associations! I thought that made sense for pestilence.

I am excited to see your guy when he's done though. I've got some wonderings about him that I'm curious to see answered.
