CLOSED, PENDING SUBMISSIONS ARE APPLICABLE

What I want from this RP:
Player characters will be the gods.
I want a world and the typical fantasy races to be established.
I want the world to be divided among the races.
Afterward I want this to be made into a new, non world creation RP, with the players playing mortal characters.



For now I want to use the standard fantasy races - Elf, Dwarf, Human, Orc etc. But if you want to make your own race here's a race sheet.





Rules

1- Mine is the word of God!
2- No writing for another's character.
3- You should post at least once every two days.
4- Your posts must be written abstractly, look at my first post to see what I mean, it may differ but not too far.
5- READ EVERYTHING!
6- There is a max of two characters per player.
7- Have FUN!

Race Sheet

Name of Race: Dwarves

Appearance: Dwarves

Country: Kyr-Moh-Tian

Description: Dwarves are an industrious and varied race. Despite popular belief, a lot of dwarves aren't the meatheaded brutes they are made out to be. In fact a small number of them actually practice magic and are scholars. Dwarves fight as hard as they can and hardly ever agree to retreat. They hate being talked down to and the more sword-and-sheild of the dwarves would not hesitate to smack you across the face for insulting them. Dwarf Women are not discriminated against and share the same priviladges and rights as Dwarf Men.

Religion:
They worship the obvious, Bolunn but there are also a plethora of Spirits that dwarves worship based on preference or profession. That is not to say that some do not respect or believe in the other gods, it is just to say that they don't pay as much heed to them. Most priests and dwarves depict the Spirits as Bolunns children, and rightfully so, although some tend to depict them as his brothers and sisters, much to their and Bolunns discontent.
Other gods:

Good Spirits
Grunbek - Spirit of the Harvest, Taller of the dwarf race, her distinguishing feature is her green hair.
Thorbur - Spirit of the mine and invention, shorter than most dwarves, he is normally pictured as a bald dwarf with a scar over his blind right eye. He is usually depicted with a shovel of some sort.
Nalaim - Spirit of war, She is average height with braided brown hair. She is usually painted or statued with either a handaxe and a sheild or a two handed battleaxe.
Gruir - Spirit of the inn and good times, He is short and chubby to say the least. He has a friar tuck haircut and is usually depicted with a mug of ale in hand.
Thoril - Spirit of trade. Thoril has long hair and a short goatee. He and Gruir are usually depicted together although their personalities are largely different. He is usually painted with many pouches on his belt.
Helgar - Spirit of love and beauty. She is seen to be the most beautiful of the gods and of dwarves and is seen wearing ceremonial robes .
Yerna - Spirit of magic. He is an average sized dwarf, who wears robes infused with runes and visible magic traces. He often carries a staff in most depictions.
Korgan - Spirit of forgery. He is seen as a strong, short dwarf who wears a blacksmiths apron and carries an anvil on his back at all times.
Hugen - Spirit of the hunt, he is seen as quick and almost elf like. He wears ranger-like clothing and is seen carrying either a bow and arrow or a crossbow depending on the time period

Evil Spirits
Magnund - Spirit of death. While Magnund is not necessarily seen by all as an evil god, most priests depict him as one. He wears blackened and bloodstained armour and is nothing more than the skeleton of a former dwarf.
Othos - Spirit of insanity and trickery. He is seen wearing peasants clothing along with holding a bloodied dagger in his right hand along with a piece of parchment in his left.
Ragni - Spirit of destruction. He is depicted as a scarred and deformed dwarf who constantly hides his face with hoods and masks. He wears dark mage robes and carries a staff made from what seems to be bones and skin.
Ulfar - Spirit of the ocult and cannabalism. She is depicted as an insane and messy goddess who is hated by most.

Do we just make up a country name for the country of origin? Also, wouldn't the history of the race be made during the RP rather than before it so that we don't inadvertantly make a bad relationship with other RP'ers right from the start? I mostly say this because I have like nothing to write for that haha.

The last time I did this I had that but I can change it, you do make a point. Maybe I could move history out and add in a culture section. What do you think?

I think it would be for the best if everyone took a vote, I mean it's not just me that it affects but everyone. I'm ok with making a history if its to the preference of the rest of the group but a culture section even if the history section is kept sounds like a great idea. Especially if in the RP to come after this one we travel to each others countries and see how much contrast there actually is between the cultures.

See, there's a problem there, the group hasn't been made yet. I don't want some bozo's input on this. I'll just keep the history part and say in ()'s to include what culture they'll have as a major part.

@Mr_Pink: I only have one thing to correct. There are no sub-gods, call them spirits if you don't mind.

What do you mean by spirits? By sub-gods I kind of meant like the nine-divines in the Elder Scrolls, like if my character was Akatosh the sub-gods would be the other nine divines. I can take it out if necessary but I would still like a description of spirits just to know what I'm changing to.

I know what you meant by them. Think about it like this; My character is like Akatosh and all of your characters are like the divines and your sub gods are below the gods. They can't be called gods, if you've watched avatar the last air bender the sub gods are called spirits. They aren't the gods of that sphere, they only have limited influence in it. Or at least that's how spirits are here.

Yeah, I'm unsure of what to put for that though so I'll probably wait for some other people to do theirs first.
