[OOC] The Heavens Aflame - A Civil War Amongst the Deities

[HeySeuss]

The Fair Lady said
I was writing a sheet for a "Deity that sees the dead to the underworld." Do you want me to make the heir instead?

It's up to you.

Actraiser, I'll have an answer tomorrow. I gotta sleep here. :)

The pantheon only sort of represents order. It's an imposed order. The deities are not intrinsically orderly. Anyway, the most vital character role is unfilled -- that is the heir apparent of Aroesus.Anyone joining needs to consider that role very carefully, please.

I could always make an heir apparent if The Fair Lady wants o stick with her idea. -3-

[Crazy Guy]

@HeySeuss: So, no Force of Chaos that makes this conflict into more than just the squabbling over a succession crisis among a pantheon of petty gods? Well, that makes it all a little more depressing and meaningless, but okay. We can play that kind of game, too.

I'm almost considering putting up a sheet up for the heir apparent, but I'll keep it to myself for unless no one else has any ideas.

Just in case you missed it in my last post, as it was smaller compared to my questions, I edited Metanoia's history to suit your needs. Hope it satisfies you; this RP looks like it'll be fun.

[The Fair Lady]

I think I will make the heir. :)

Then I'll make the deity that sees dead to the underworld :D

[The Fair Lady]

Then we talked and decided not to swap. ;) I posted Nihris.

Sorry for the late reply, I've been busy today with schoolwork and boxing training. xD

I'm happy to change Daeros to being the Patron of Tradesmen and remove the 'Master of Pleasures' thing, but I still want him to be the God of Politicians and Liars, as well - and I'm certainly okay with there being overlap, as it'll create conflict and add a more interesting layer to the RP. Is it alright if he's still the God of Serpents and Narcotics, too? I figure drugs kind of go hand in hand with business, and the whole 'trade, lying and politics' thing opens the door to a certain number of criminal followers - and I think snakes represent politicians quite well, if that's not being extremely cynical. xD

Anyways, I'll go ahead and make the changes to his CS within the next hour or so, and if anything else still needs to be changed - or removed, because I'm not sure if I'm taking on a little too many of the 'cooler' responsibilities, you can let me know! :)

EDIT: Finished editing my sheet, looking forward to hearing some feedback!

[AmazinglyVivid]

I will be submitting an application for the role of Mysia some time today! Just thought I'd let you know, HeySeuss.

What do people think of my entry?

I'm just a player, but I'll give my impressions:

You need a Psychology section. (Your current Psych section, while a fun read, is more another History section. Or a run-on of the Followers section. Doesn't say much about his own Psychology, is my point.)

Dream went from childhood to young adulthood (where they are now).

Maybe the start of the current world? Having his magic cloud appear at the start of the world seems to suggest he pre-dates Mysia and Aroseus.

Hope the feedback helps!

[HeySeuss]

Actually, Ruby's the Co-GM here. Just announcing that. If I go under for some reason, like work, she's the boss. ;)

Oh no, the magic cloud is his father/mother. When Mysia and Aroesus killed it, is when he was born. So he's younger than the old gods. But I get what you're saying.

[The Fair Lady]

Is Nihris okay? :)

Alright Ruby, Seuss. :D
I expanded the Psychology section. Is that better?

[HeySeuss]

Hah, now that Canada has the gold in hockey (at least the US fought hard ;) ) I'll go look over sheets and provide feedback. Thanks for the patience. ;)

Now I can't have inside jokes where I refer to myself as 'only a player.'

I only got one in. =/

[Hellis]

I just posted a WIP of my God of Desperation, Shadows, Darkness and Rebellion.

[HeySeuss]

Just a note, from here on out no more outcast characters. We can't have everyone as an outcast. We need some conformist status quo types, too.

[HeySeuss]

Approved:

- Nanaeios (Asuras)
- Mikazliqui (Dead Cruiser)
- Morios (MelonHead)
- Vael and Nys (Ruby)
- Metanoia (Crazy Guy)
- Dareos (Squrmy)
- Nihris (The Fair Lady)
- Lefredias (Hellis)

Needing Modification

- Eskellon (ActraiserTheReturned) - Youth and old age? It seems like it'd be more consistent to drop the youth. It's a non-sequitur against the whole wisdom, age and magic and guarding the week thing. Your character is more like a family patriarch, a lion in winter, than anything.

Requests no longer active:

- A deity devoted to bacchanalia/drunkeness and revelry.
- A deity that runs the underworld.
- Deities that see the dead to the underworld and other parts; probably in conflict with the underworld deity.
