So I had this idea in my head for a while, and could never think of some sort of plot or drive to make it happen, and I think I finally got it figured out!
I want to make an RP that involves mortals having the gods' powers. Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Chinese, Aztec, etc. But the catch is is that our characters won't be demigods. Our characters will be the gods.
All of the ancient myths were in fact true, and as their civilizations died, so did they. Their essence, their very being just kinda dulled, and became almost non-existent, but their impacts and legacies lived on, and they were in a limbo state.
Years later the world has come to an end. A very ancient evil wiped the world clean, but still humanity lived on, and with the birth of the new world, the gods were brought back to life, but in mortal form. The Earth chose specific gods/goddesses and (if you talk to me first) some mighty demigods that once lived to help shape this world, and rid it of the ancient evil that still looms over their head. No one knows what the evil is, and as they wake they do not know much.
Creatures of darkness will try and kill them, their memories will start to form again, and allies could turn to enemies under their ancient feuds. The only way for them to succeed in freeing this world is to settle their differences and go once more into the fray and fight for humanity for a chance of their redemption. Each champion will be brought back for a reason. They could be brought back for redemption, to lead the force, but they all have certain skills that they will all need.
The Gods will obviously be different since they are in mortal form. They unconsciously chose an appearance that fits they prefer (nothing flashy since they are now mortals). The memories of their past is hazy, and they forgot much, but they do know their name, and go by a human name as well. As the time goes by, as their memories form, so do their abilities. For example Zeus will have that ability to control lightning within a few days, and fully powered he could summon lightning, fly, sense air currents... pretty much anything sky related. The same applies to any god and their abilities.
----
I'll go in to a more detailed setting and all that, but I also wanted to say that any god/goddess from any culture would be acceptable, but if they aren't very know I'd like to be notified on who they are! And there can be a few demigods reincarnated but they will be limited and will have to be okay'd by me
Is anyone interested SO FAR??
