@thewizardguy - Unfortunately I cannot bend on that particular detail as I have a number of reasons for having entrances function as they do. My main reason for this pertains to events before the gods even came to be so I cannot discuss it without spoiling undiscovered lore. My second reason is that the necessity for physical entrances isn't a benefit, it's a drawback. With moving entrances that are inaccessible to anyone without the host deity's permission it would allow people to essentially appear and disappear without any real risk or difficulty. While a god may have supreme reign over their own realm so long as they have entrances that can realistically be found they always stand a risk of being cut off from the world or losing it all as it spills into the void while they're away. This creates a dynamic where no type of realm is without weakness. Realms in sub-space are much safer normally but stand the risks mentioned above. Realms set in the physical world of Tabrasa don't have such security but also do not have to worry about having their stuff suddenly emptied into the void. There are always ways to protect one's entrances of course and they can be destroyed and, with a bit of effort, created at any time. My apologies if that creates complications with your conceptual design for the realm.

@Vega7 - So long as it's acknowledged that the perceived movements of these entrances to his realm are a result of him destroying and recreating them you may have my permission to post your character over in the Characters tab.

I'd go into more detail but my day is quite hectic. I'll be back later.

Question: Can I include the Rift's entrances among her creations, due to them being inside a labyrinth? Just curious, because I wanted to go in-depth of what awaits those that attempt to enter her realm without her consent.

Ah now this looks interesting!

I have a few corresponding ideas regarding what my character can be the domain of, but could at least one be regarded as a god/goddess of "destruction"?

And pardon my ignorance, Ive read the rules to "put it on by tabula" but what does the titles "Those of the World/Present/Beyond" mean exactly?

Hello, @Lmpkio I can answer your questions I think.

Firstly, we do not have a God/Goddess of Destruction, the topic itself is very broad but that isn't a bad thing at all. However, we do have a God of Fire who is destructive. So I believe you could consider/do a Destruction domain but at the same time must take into consideration with what we have already.

As for your second question, maybe this might help?

I have also created a list for that page with three categories: Those of The World, Those of Man and Those Who Came After. Basically those of the World are all the oldest gods, all born roughly close to one another in time span. Those of Man came shortly after them, gods and goddesses formed from domains born of humankind. Lastly there are Those Who Came After which are the youngest, coming after all the others. You are all free to discuss with others in the same bracket where you stand with one another age-wise but this is the general setup as far as determining who or what came when.

Shoot, my second option would've been a fire god - you know, to counteract a certain character living in Nifelheim - but fair enough. I would broaden the spokes regarding the characteristics said character would utilize and use.

Alternatively I'm also thinking of lightning - either I'd have to reimagine Thor or make a completely new character if I go said route

And ah, so basically it's "old - middle aged - young" gods. That makes perfect sense.

@Lmpkio Yeah, it's just an age thing.

The fire god isn't posted in the characters tab yet, so I could see where there might be some confusion haha.

You could always try your hand at a Weather god, but there's a lot more out there to choose from for sure!

Makes sense lol - because I searched the CS for it but didn't see it for some reason. Figured it wasn't posted yet but yeah.

Weather sounds nice actually. I think I'll utilize on that concept. I may have a few ideas regarding it.

Zee is the map maker. If it's on his post, it's most likely the official.

just how it is.

I am trying to get a feel for Ferron's voice. I think I should save Ferron's relationship chart until after the RP, because otherwise there is not much interesting other than "I hope this guy doesn't mess with my stuff."

Still need to think up a biography - which is going to be a bit difficult btw although the premise of "3 merging into 1" is still to be a thing.

Back again! Yay! Now back to business proper.

@Lmpkio - Your CS is looking quite nice thus far.

As far as the map is concerned once all the gods with physical locales are set and after I make the first post I'll move the map onto the front page of the OOC tab as it's pretty much what I'm going with in terms of geography since it's nicer looking than whatever I could cook up.

@Vega7 - I've got your character listed in the page top roster of the characters tab now that I have the time.

For everyone else if you've gotten my permission to submit your character to the characters tab and I haven't updated the gods list to include yours do let me know so I can get them up there. I try to remember these things but alas I am sadly human.

@Dealdric - Of course. Do let us know when they're finished, I'd like to read them.

Just a general update: I should have the first post done by tomorrow. If not I'll be sure to keep you all apprised of my progress so you can know just how far along I am with it.

I also wish to thank everyone so far with helping one another along, answering questions and the like. I hope you all will enjoy what I have in store and I look forward to seeing all your characters in play.

Ah thank you! I was afraid it may not be agreeable initially, but alas Im glad you like it so far.

Alright - in the meantime, can you explain a bit more about the process of how the world came to be? Drakairos is definitely going to be part of the original gods cast "Those of The World" and I want a grasp at how the development of the world happened.

In my head, I imagine it was a messy and complicated world in the beginning, but as soon gods and goddesses took control of the elements and vice versa, things started to calm down. Is this right enough or what happened exactly?

@Lmpkio - Actually it's more the opposite. The world was calm and everything was as it should be. There were great forest and oceans, birds occupied the skies, fish occupied the waters and both insects and beasts of great variety roamed the lands. All the while the sun and moon calmly danced across the skies as they should.

In truth the time between the origin of the gods and the point at which the rp takes place isn't very long. The gods of the world appeared at the same time as humanity was born. As humanity went about they created new domains which gave rise to the gods of man. After all that came the newest gods and that is basically where this is starting.

The opening posts are largely meant to give everyone's gods a chance to meet, interact and play with humans as they will. Once all that is set there will likely be a time skip giving everyone a chance to discuss and show how the actions of the gods changed the societies of man which bleeds into the stage where they start forming small cities and gathering groups of tribes under their banners to form the first armies the world will know. Or whatever other wackiness occurs, it's impossible to tell what might happen when gods are at play which is part of the fun.
