[OOC] Godspeed!

True, and I suppose it'd a rather simple matter to simply remove genetic deformities when you're powerful enough to create them to begin with.

It may be my computer but that image was stupidly tiny. But through squinting and some page magnification, I could make it out. Quite helpful.

@Valorous

you should be able to zoom in I think, if you open it in its own tab

That worked, Thanks

@Double Capybara absolutely adore that artwork

Edit: and is it just me or does your header seem to be evolving wings xD was that intentional with the faeries?

@Kho

It is not mine though, it is from a company my uncle works on. I traced it to train the style, since I do plan on making my own things later on and also to avoid posting the original PNG since I don't know if the game is out yet.

The header was really just me being undecided on doing the style. The original shape was a bit more meaningful and could be re-used later, but the current one looks better in my opinion. Plus it doesn't make K G look like a single word.

[Lauder]

Kiko about to converse with that @Kho thing over there.

[Valorous]

I think Ipeyr would have something to say about the sudden RKO mushroom/fungi things. Nothing bad mind you.

Also, Kap Gam, goddess of shrooms?

Holy hell okay hi I was in an exam for three hours and come back to all of this. I'm probably not going to post (...or port the sheet, yay awkwardly-stuck-on-mobile-ness) till tomorrow because I'm tired as all heck but thanks for the warm welcome and I can't wait to get started!

[Jarl Coolgruuf]

All the other gods are making mushroom shrines and sprites and shit and Pelegath's over here like:

@Amethyst

That's fine, I think these nutters will calm down after a little while. I plan on extending turn 0 for a while anyway, so gods who blast through all their Might have a chance to calm down and interact a little and gods who stand around chatting will still have an opportunity to make first creations.

Gremju will be so so disappointed when he finds out Promus doesn't like him </3

Kap Gam hears Seihdhara's request and is like. "My dudette, they are gonna suffocate and starve."

THIS IS WHY MATER LEI CREATED BACTERIA

@Pyromaniacwolf

Same deal as Grimloq. This is fine, but again, don't rush. Your character has just been born and we still have plenty of time left in turn zero.

You can post as much as you want, guys, but pay attention to the in-game passage of time. Start as many big projects as you want but consider not finishing them the very next sentence.

@Jarl Coolgruuf

Jarl, re-read the OP, and try again.

[Pyromaniacwolf]

@Antarctic Termite aye I wasn't planning to develop the area much outside of that now for a time. Probably just use my remaining night to make some animals or something.

@Jarl Coolgruuf

Another note while I'm handing them out like rice crackers: while occasional and subtle references like this one are fine, try not to rip off ideas straight up from other fiction. We've had some issues with that before.

[Kalleth]

Alright! He's ready for appraisal. As soon as I'm approved, I'll get started on my first post, though I have no idea if I can keep up if this pace is continuous.

This Guy Kills Me!

Césure Virgule

Death's Frontman AKA The One-Man Clean-Up Crew

Male

Dᴏᴍᴀɪɴ & Pᴏʀᴛꜰᴏʟɪᴏ

Death (The Mortal Coil)
Césure's domain of Death provides for quite a range of unsightly, ghastly, and tummy-upsetting portfolios. After all, nobody wants to hear that the fun and wonderful party that they've been raving at for their entire lives is coming to a timely end. But that is the sad (or happy, or hilarious, or arousing) truth of existence. Death is, at its core, the fundamental ending of Life. It is a return to form for that which has so miraculously come into its own, so that a continuous cycle of balance and energy and yada yada yada blah blah you've heard all this claptrap before. Point is, Césure's portfolio is that of the fellow who picks up the mortal coils as they slough off of their careworn previous owners. He then takes this essence and gives the best portion of it over the the gods of Life, while keeping a portion for those of Death, and a smaller embezzlement fee for his own good deeds.

Césure can prolong or foreshorten any living being's death, which while not causing or preventing it, is his primary sensation of amusement from existence. His abilities also mean that he has offered up many mortals with some of his more accessible and mundane techniques of toying with the bounds of death, if his whims deemed them worthy. In rare cases, when he Virgule wishes to feel very involved, he can prevent the mortal coil from detaching and cause unDeath. He doesn't tend to do this particularly often, though it isn't difficult, because his zombies are inevitably destined to have their mortal coils torn asunder by the strain which makes them non-cashable tender. Essentially, Césure's undead army of servants would be require him to forego pay on behalf of himself and the other Death gods, would jeopardize the balance and all that boogity woogity, and is just too much of a pain in his ass to warrant doing. He does however grant one fanatical priest unDeath per year, in exchange for favours on Césure's behalf. It's pretty hilarious because most of those favours involve elaborate practical jokes on the servants and attachés of other gods.

Aʟɪɢɴᴍᴇɴᴛ

Neutral Evil

Pᴇʀsᴏnaʟɪᴛʏ

Imagine if one day, you were called up out of whatever backwater non-existent pub you had been lurking in for a few eons, and were given the odious task of dealing with dead, dying, and soon-to-be-dying people, for eternity. Yeah, you'd probably end up the same way as Cés(/keɪs/). Namely, the man is constantly looking for new ways to poke fun at existence itself, and any means he can find of making his job more amusing. He's been at this endlessly, and he tends to go through phases. He'll have to deal with a particularly long war with plenty of prisoners on hand, being tortured, and the amazement on the torturers faces at the seeming endurance of the tormented will be evidence of Cés' hand in things. He's also tried making deaths quick and painless for some, though these are generally people whose story he had been following in the first place and even gave a shit about to begin with.

To describe Cés as arbitrary is to call fire warm, or water damp. The god's only seeming motivator is what will provide the next laugh, chuckle, or bemused observation as he toys with the very mechanics of death itself. He is especially fond of the cults that rise up to worship him, as they seem to do unexpected and surprising things with consistency. As far as inter-god relations are concerned, Cés couldn't care less about them, and tends to view them more than anything with veiled jealousy and bitterness. His duties require his every moment in some capacity, whereas they have so much more freedom. Thus he has a decidedly vindictive streak, especially against the gods of Life, which he mostly can keep hidden when he is forced to deal with them. That being said, Cés' tricks, tasks, and mortal servants are particularly famous for garnering the anger of the gods, usually several at once.

Gᴏᴀʟs

Césure's goals can be summarized as being the amassing of a personal trove of mortal coils to some greater purpose. Every single stolen and scrimped soul is preciously and protectively hoarded somewhere hidden from the eyes of the gods. Whether his actual end is to increase his own power, dominion over the physical world, or gods forbid, some off-brand of undead Disney World, it is unclear that even he himself knows. Much more concrete is Césure's hatred of his obligations and duties, and thus one of his wider goals through whatever means necessary is to break free of his unwilling committal to collect the mortal coils. More than anything, deep within his pale gray consciousness, Césure Virgule wants to be left alone. A sort of soft nihilism sulks behind his every action, and is the prime mover for his actions independent of his godly duties.

Aᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ

On the godly plane, Césure bears an uncanny resemblance to Nathan Fillion, to scale as a matter of fact. It is from this form that he derives his other more general manifestations on his frequent incursions to the mortal plane. A tall handsome man in somber suits, well-groomed but rakish even in middle-age. While he prefers this form, and keeps to it as much as he can, the nature of collecting mortal coils means that Césure makes it a habit of taking on the form of wisp of watery mist that can be mistaken as any number of bodily fluids, as well as his godly beast of choice (a brown rat.) Needless to say, Césure has never been one for big dramatic entrances or exits, and while not trying to be undetectable, prefers to be overlooked when possible.
