Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay IntChk FULL

[Scarifar]

Oh hey @Nevix. Glad you could join us. Come to the Light side, not the Dark side. :P

We have more than cookies.

EDIT: oop, too late.

[Nevix]

@HaelI'll be the God of deceit, you can retain you control over Knowledge, friendo.

[Kho]

@Nevix Really glad to see you're excited about it :) looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

So far we've got a fair mix:

Chaos
Change
Trickery-esque (x2)
Knowledge
Cosmic (Solar)
Magic
Creation (Time)
Light (Purity)
And more that I've missed

[Hael]

@HaelI'll be the God of deceit, you can retain you control over Knowledge, friendo.

@Nevix

Thankyou very much!

Sounds like we'll be enemies, however. Deceit is the opposite of Knowledge. You will embody falsehood, I will embody truth. My character probably won't like yours very much

[Cyclone]

@HaelDamn, oh well. It sucks but it's not like it's game-ruining. I'm sure I'll find plenty other domains. Like the domain of deceit! Lies, secrets, thievery, sounds like my sort of thing.

@Nevix

I tossed around the thought of an absolutely diabolical god of knowledge and secrets that would appear as a void of utterly abyssal nothingness at first, seduce mortals and even gods with false promises or offers of aid (since he would, after all, know the secrets of nearly everything in existence) and then manipulate them to do his will. When he was done, he would at least appear in his true form as a giant mass of writhing tentacles and bulbous, whirling, eldritch eyes, though it wouldn't have been his form that changed so much as his victim's perception suddenly expanding to allow them to see what was always there.

And then of course, he would tortuously kill them and extract every last memory that they had, to add to his fathomless knowledge of the universe. And he would repeat this process over and over, out of both an insatiable curiosity for secrets and plain morbid sadism. Everyone would know his trick, but they would still be lulled into his clutches anyways, so powerful are his lies and promises.

Now I'm going for a much more mild god of change and air, but maybe what I just wrote will inspire you

@Cyclone

So...basically Hermaeus Mora from Skyrim. xD

Okay, so I made This

It's kinda wonky on the formatting, but that's the only way I could get the picture to fit right. How'd I do otherwise?

Well, after having a quick think on concepts, outside of a(n) Water/Ocean deity since, well, every Pantheon needs one of those to help shape an actual world and stuff, here's what I've got. I feel obligated to put this forth before I start writing up a character sheet mostly because I'd like to see if it's viable and maybe get some tips on what exactly his domain and what not would actually be. Here goes.

Rather than a God who serves at his own whim, think a deity who serves only at the whim of every other God and any mortal who could afford to "employ" him so to speak. As you can probably already tell, I'm not particularly good at putting my ideas into words, but a basic concept was, say, God X wants to mess with God Y without God Y knowing it was God X, so God X sends God Z, who's willing to do any task no matter how grand or small, righteous or heinous, innocent or wretched, etc. as long as his fee is paid (What the fee is, I've got no idea.), from scrubbing a kitchen sink to massacring a village, so on, so forth. Figured it'd be a fun way to get involved in Godly power struggles without necessarily vying for the Iron Throne.

If it's too broad of a purview or a bit game breaking to have a God who essentially does anything as long as he's paid, I get it. It's probably a dumb idea to begin with, but hey, nothing ventured, right?

If it is indeed a dumb idea I should've kept to myself, I guess I'll just stick to the good old guy dressed in seaweed trying to keep everyone away from his islands and dolphins.

That took far too long to type. I shuold probably sleep.

@Vec

Hah, exactly!

...and that's why I didn't use him. I just thought, blech, too unoriginal.

[Vec]

@Cyclone

My Hider

And here's some food for your eyes.

[Nevix]

So, where would I find the OP?

[Kho]

I think I need to get the OOC up O.O this escalated quickly

The OP will be up in a second.

@Cyclone

I had an imagine of Mora in my head the whole time you said that

Nonetheless, I actually plan on having my character fighting as a mass of writhing tentacles, Hermaneous Mora-style

[Kho]

@Sloth Mate, it's a brilliant idea. You need to have more confidence in your ideas. I love the first, and if you like it, I say go for it

NOOOOOOW

OOC

The RP is still open to applicants

@Valor

I think you're going to have serious problems with one certain Great Lich Lord
It's a bit bare, but I'm sure you'll fill it up a bit more after you read the OOC OP

[Frettzo]

I'm still going with Astarte, though this time she'll be a Magic (Soul Manipulation) Goddess.

@Frettzo

Apparently someone already got the soul portfolio, although his is in the Death domain. Don't know how that would affect you. Just pointing it out.
