[OOC] Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

[Kho]

@Venku Glad you managed to post something before the deadline, I think we have enough to judge it, but if you can complete it soon that would be good.

Just a question on his domain (portfolio). A portfolio like (Storms) is more likely to come under domains like Nature, Weather, Seasons and other similar ones. I am not entirely sure if things like Unity and Division can really be classed as domains. I can understand that bringing things together is obviously a strength, but that's what a god would basically be doing once they have more than one portfolio. Further, while I can see that Unity has strength, what is the strength of a Domain like Division? What kind of portfolio can come under that?

I hope you can explain it to me, otherwise, it may be better to choose a different domain. If you want to stick with (Storms) as a portfolio, maybe consider things like Nature, Weather (and with Weather, you can later expand into wind, rain, hail, thunder, lightening and so on). Otherwise, great CS so far :)

It is now GMT+0 12.10 pm, Tuesday 2 June. New applications will not b accepted. All applications, complete or otherwise, will be considered by Rtron and I as soon as possible.

OP Update: Added 'Lo~ve, Demigods and Marriage'

[jetipster]

Just FYI guys

[Frettzo]

I'm up for reading that possible interaction between Vowzra and Arguis,@Kho! Seems like it can be something interesting.

[Kho]

@FrettzoI would include Astarte in this potential coalition, but she seems more like a 'force'. As is written in the CS, she views herself as just 'there', which is actually quite interesting. Plus, I don't think it was a coincidence that @Lokileo789 asked about marriage as soon as her CS came up xDDDDDD think Astarte has a secret admirer hehe (I joke I joke >.>)

[Frettzo]

The magical girl's got an admirer! xD

@Kho

*whistles* there is more then one goddess in this RP...There is Two.

You got jokes huh??

I don't like anyone and I never will!!!

Anyway, a coalition would be fun, everyone again the ugly Kraken thing and the Chaotic Chaos Guy.

[Kho]

Technically three, Undasis, Evelynn and Astarte
Anyone up for some half-psychotic god bride? Who may explode into Krakenness at any moment o.o

[Scarifar]

I'm not even sure if I have much to offer with anyone. Ferghus will probably just mess with the mortals everyone else creates.

[Kho]

I think Ferghus is going to be awesome, the go-to god for all our great godly weapons, technological inventions and what have you. If we manage to persuade you of course xD
I can already see Automatons, Talos-like beings and who knows what else. I think Ferghus has as much potential as any of the gods, and his chaotic neutral alignment means he can get away with doing whatever he fees like.

Vowzra: Uh...two sets of Time-warping spears please. Created a hero recently, have to give him a heroic weapon you know. Would make one myself, but really, too busy these days. Just don't know where all the time goes

[Frettzo]

I can see Ferghus being solicited quite a bit. Especially for top of the notch weaponry and armour for heroes.

@Kho

I'm glad you asked about Division because I had actually put some though into choosing it instead when I starting writing. The strengths of Division lies in the fact that dividing is bringing things apart. For one a Division deity would be able to divide anything into its separate parts greatly weakening it or even destroying it. This would apply to objects, kingdoms, alliances, multiple personalities, at a certain level even the very world itself (I mean the world as in what the universe is in). Portfolios would include war, fission, trickery/deception, confusion, conflict, destruction, chaos, etc. Similar domains include Destruction, Chaos, War, etc.

Both Unity and Divisions abilities are powerful in the long run but are required to work with others to an extent, if only to defeat each other, until they become powerful enough.

[Kho]

@Venku Hmm, not so sure. A domain is meant to be broad, but I think Unity/Division are bit too ambiguous. Rather than Division, I would have used something more like Discord, Conflict (in fact, I'd say these are more Portfolios than Domains, (Discord) can come under Chaos, War; (Conflict) can come under War.) Things like War, Trickery, Chaos etc. are more Domains than Portfolios, so I can't see them coming under Division. If you do want something like Unity, I would suggest you have it as a Portfolio and perhaps choose another word, maybe (Harmony) or (Balance) and have a wider Domain, something like Law, Order or anything else more fitting.

I did actually think of fission/fusion, but even those I wouldn't put under Division/Unity. They're more related to Science (Atoms) which is Evelynn's Domain (Portfolio).

It's just that Unity as a Domain seems really ambiguous and so does Division. They can potentially apply to anything and everything within any other Domain. Your character is interesting overall, it's just this tiny thing that just doesn't sit quite right with me. Sorry if I come across as pedantic, but there we go.

[Frettzo]

@Venku, you can achieve control over storms and weather if you directly go Weather (Storms). Otherwise, if you want to have something to do with the way things interact with each other, I'd recommend going with Order (Harmony), like Kho suggested just now :p

Otherwise Chaos (Discord) could be interesting, though that one I believe will be one of Vestec's strengths in the future.

[Venku]

@Kho
Uggh now your suggestions have given me so many good ideas that I'm stuck at the choice. Well I guess I'll finish the rest of the CS then make my decision.

I am currently in the process of editing my CS.

@Kho

Not really "Krakenness", since the Kraken is male but the Woman of Water is female.

So not only would you have to worry about your bride suddenly transforming into a bloodthirsty monster, you would also have to worry about spontaneous gender changes.

@Hael

Svei doesn't mind a man ;)

Krakens though aren't exactly his 'type'.

@Scarifar Fergus is going to be in demand and very quickly accumulating favours and promises. All Sveiand can do is turn down the thermostat. Starting to hear a desperate loner alert. Haha

[Kho]

Poor, poor Sveiland :(
No one told him that he is our only hope against the Kraken. If you can't control the mad water god, you can just freeze all his precious waters >.>

@Kho

Now THAT has a ring to it. Man on a mission. Better start sucking up Kraken.

@jetipster

He would never let it happen. Waves are sort of the Kraken's main power (whereas sealife is the Woman's), and freezing all the waves would probably limit him so much that he would simply vanish. All that's left would be Woman of the Waters.

Hold on...

I just got an idea...

Stop the waves, you stop the Kraken

[Frettzo]

Though the Kraken and the Woman of the Waters would have to be separate avatars, right? Unless you intend for mortals to go mad in their presence xD
