I don't mind references, even players not involved with MK1 do references to other stuff, Me with greek myth, Mardox and that fictional universe. So I don't mind MK1 being referenced. Some allusions to it are fine too, like if someone bullied amartia by saying "Your spirit sings the song of one unshakably self-centered, hungry for knowledge, hungry for control, and hungry for legacy." that would be neat.

But if anyone gets close to living my joke about recreating MK1 in a dream to meta bombard people, that is an issue for me. Having knowledge, or worse, power, from the previous game isn't very nice.

Furthermore, on this case, in particular, I have been rushing towards that Mind Domain for a while, and Ilunabar's take on it has already been shown to be based on information collection and planning, that kinda closes the window for any possible plan to resurrect Arguis' domain, in my opinon.

Hey everybody. I've been lurking in the shadows reading the IC and am interested in joining this RP. I already talked about some of the details with @Kho for a while.

Any ideas or suggestions for what sort of character the RP is missing? Having read through the whole IC I know that some gods are gone and left open portfolios but I'd rather not try to overwrite previous characters or tread where others have already gone.

Got in contact with me quite a while ago and READ EVERY SINGLE IC POST DAMNIT.
Unsatisfied with that, he* even had a quick flick through Mk.1 - I think he's going to make an awesome addition to the team :)

Hmmm.
We do not have gods of insects, of sickness, of birds, of thunder, of love, of friendship/cooperation/family, of the home, of the moons(plural), of the night, of glory/heroism, of medicine, of tradition, of language, of strength, of curiosity/exploration, of weather/seasons, of freedom... The list is big. It would be easier if you mentioned stuff you'd like to play with.

Well I did notice a curious lack of anything to do with water or the ocean in the domains and portfolios, but Jvan is already kind of a sea-god by physical location and Zephyrion is (was?) sort of the storm god. And the djinn tackle pretty much everything related to the elements or nature. Murmur even tackles sound.

Maybe I could have done something with a djinni character but Vitrum is basically the exact same thing as the character I would be making.

It's so hard to think of an original (and useful idea that would give me something to contribute and write about for a while) domain/portfolio that I've actually been considering just writing from a mortal perspective. Seems like all the good concepts for demigods are taken.

I noticed the lack of water gods too :/ Jvan's only there because there's the weirdshit is better down where it's wetter. I'd be happy to see a dedicated fish person down there, especially considering her current projects are all at the bottom of the ocean.

I never struggle with coming up for demigod ideas, though. I feel like we are sorely lacking elemental deities right now. As I recall, we have metal, light, air, and... Nuclear fusion, I guess? There's a lot of room for material portfolios tied in to a symbolic domain, or vice versa. I was once tempted to play a depressed god of Water (Isolation), for example, way back when. Other things I've played with include Cycles (Erosion), Death (Remains) and so on. Fear (Lightning), Fertility (Dust), Love (Flowers), Emotions (Masks), Journeys (Sail), Light (Candles), Language (Ink)... And what have you.

There's also not much in the way of portfolios specific to a set of creatures or cultures. All I can think of was Occult (Demons). Riders (Companionship, Trade), Water (Ports), Air (Tengu), Cities (Poltergeists, Lowlives, Nobles), Night (Werewolves), Rivers (Naga) and so on.

...i may or may not have like four different Divinus ocs that i'll never get to use

@Obsidian To be honest, Vitrum (now Aeramen) does not have a huge role just yet. He's a metal djinn / combat teacher / defender of Galbar but he doesn't necessarily have to be the only one of his kind.

You could be similar to Vitrum but take a different path.

You could be one of Aeramen's students and leave the Hilt for your own adventures.

By the way, there aren't any actual deities that have a specific classical element in mind. Sure, Zephyrion and the djinnis have been dealing with that as a whole, but specialising in any particular one (earth, fire, water, air, [aether is arguably Ull'Yang's jam]) is still certainly a possibility.

From what I've seen, the gods we have take broad stuff to cover everything while demigods take narrow stuff to specialise more. Don't be afraid to put a unique spin on a subset of something we may already have.

Edit: Ninja's by Termite:

Language (Ink)... And what have you.


I see some is pumping the bilge of a Tounabar ship while it's still in the dry dock. HMmmm.

Oh yeah. I know I included Obsidian as one of the main points of Ilu's Glass portfolio. But if Obsidian wants the specific Obsidian port I'd have 0 issue with Obsidian using Obsidian too.

I'm starting this again. Not this thread, but this game.

To reiterate, I'm not restarting Kho's Divinus, but we're close enough I think I can start this over again and ask Kho to join me in this very thread.

@ActRaiserTheReturned Of course, if you want to recreate your own Divinus RP, based on your original, I have no right to protest. I've actually recently been considering starting a Free Section version of Divinus - if you want to give that a shot, I don't mind doing it with you (if I'm right in understanding that you would like me to Co-GM your new Divinus).

Oh Great. This version of Divinus is set in a post apocalyptic Earth.

For those that care, the next Thacel post has entered Production phase. We had to purchase licence to film in several exotic locals along with get the paperwork done for background actors, but we are hitting the ground running!

As always, Malchivo Productions will ensure to keep the public updated.

Woah, woah! Another company has entered the battlefield it seems. Have you heard of Sindustries? I'm sure you have. Anyway, we have a variety of slaves that may tickle your fancy.

Malchivo Productions is a proud supporter of an active and well treated work force. However if you contact our branch offices* I am sure they will be much more lenient in where their workers come from.
