[OOC] Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay Mk.II

[Muttonhawk]

Aha, yes...ahem...lawful ol' Toun would never tamper with anyone, heheheh...

[Frettzo]

So... I train in Lyoto's karate style since mid 2015 and I've recently spent two months learning and refining the round kick he uses so often.

It's pretty hard, man xD

[Mardox]

@Mardox@Muttonhawk@Kho It basically comes down to the basic acknowledgement while the mortals might be ruled by facist dickbags, we are FAIR facist dickbags. They can survive relatively untampered with under our rule, and they find existence tolerable. If the Chaos Gods get ahold, there are no rules. No normalcy. No guarantee.

Besides, even the Truest Neutral Gods seem like Daedra, and will interfer solely on their whims.

@Dawnscroll

Vakarlon is not truly a Chaos God.

Hahaha, I love how the harder line is being drawn between law and chaos rather than good and evil.

@Muttonhawk

What is this good you speak of? Order or Chaos. This is the choice that must be made when one is a deity.

[Antarctic Termite]

Logos needs to learn the power of Imagination. I will get Beauty (Waifus) eventually and thus seduce him with anime girls calling him "older brother"

@Antarctic Termite

Someone took the word 'snatch' too literally...

[Antarctic Termite]

I should mention that I don't know where that image actually comes from other than a hosting site and I couldn't find its original artist, so it probably only exists online because of art theft.

I feel like it was worth making the joke though.

Here is the current state of my CS. I may improve on it, especially if I get feedback.

Teknall, The Great Artisan

Name: Teknall

Alias: The Great Artisan, Divine Mason

Gender: Male

Domain (Portfolio): Crafting (Masonry)

Domain (Portfolio) Description:
Moulding raw materials into elegant and effective creations is at the core of the Crafting Domain. It concerns itself with the design, creation and manipulation of things artificial and man-made, and its adherents tend to be artisans and labourers of some form. While some gods create things such as mountains, planets, oceans and life, Crafting gods focus their efforts on building. Unlike some Domains, the effects of the Crafting Domain are almost invariably tangible and concrete, establishing physical change in the world. While the Universe and Nature can carry on without the contribution of the Crafting Domain, Civilisation is wholly dependant on it. As such, the sway of Crafting gods are best seen through the rise and growth of civilisations. Crafting is not limited to the direct creation of objects. With the powers innate to the gods, those of the Crafting Domain regularly grant life the ability to craft, in the form of knowledge, materials, tools and inspiration. If there is no life able to be taught such things, Crafting gods will aspire to create beings who can share in their knowledge and admire their great works.

The Portfolio of Masonry covers crafting with stone. Masonry covers, but is not limited to, constructions such as monoliths, stone circles, bridges, statues, monuments, walls, houses, towers, dams and cities, making it a Portfolio applicable throughout the entire lifespan of a civilisation. Creations of Masonry are naturally durable, often able to stand for eons even as civilisations rise and fall around them. Additionally, Masonry is an ideal Crafting Portfolio for an early planet, as stone exists independent of life or civilisation.

In terms of discrete powers, a god of the Crafting Domain is: readily capable of fashioning complex, non-living objects out of raw materials, or even ex nihilo if needed, using only their will; able to grant sentient beings greater technological knowledge; able to exert control over and have understanding of devices and crafted objects.
The Masonry Portfolio includes abilities such as instantaneously creating or dismantling structures and objects of stone, and animating stone statues and structures.

The Crafting Domain often finds itself aligned with Domains such as Creation, Order and Beauty. Crafting is often opposed to Chaos and Destruction. Crafting and Nature are typically opposite in nature, although the relationship is not automatically hostile.

Alignment: Lawful Good. To create structures and civilisations, there must be order, hence Lawful. As Teknall works towards the betterment of civilised races, he is Good.

Personality: Teknall is an artisan, constantly aspiring to build greater creations. Included in such creations is civilisation itself, so Teknall taks special care to nurture and benevolently guide sentient life. Teknall is creative, aspiring, hard-working, generous and protective. Teknall is generally cooperative, eager to assist mortals and gods alike with his craftsmanship, although should someone intentionally meddle with or destroy his own creations he is quick to anger and retaliate against the perpetrator.

Appearance: Teknall's appearance depends on what the dominant sapient race is. Typically, he manifests as a practitioner of some craft, complete with tools. His form is typically stocky, muscular, and with skin tanned by the sun (if applicable). Such a form is appropriate for interacting peacefully with mortals. Should, however, he need a more aggressive form he can morph into a massive construct, be it a stone golem, a steampunk mech or some other fantastical creation.

Sample Pics

Musical Theme:
Two Steps From Hell - Stronger Faster Braver
Audiomachine - I Create

Description: Teknall seeks to see great things built and invented and raises civilisations to new heights to achieve such goals. He will regularly create such things himself, if not otherwise occupied. Teknall is almost always considered benevolent, although rarely, during times of war, his ability to produce frightening new weapons can have him seen as a bringer of death. Typically, though, he is friendly to be around.

Concealment Level: 1
Detection Level: 1

I like this Teknall, what with being about tech 'n all. Puns aside, he's an adaptable take on the kind of god who inspires pyramids and temples; I feel like given a few centuries he'll definitely be the one who blesses humans with concrete and skyscrapers, asphalt and roads, artificial islands, bunkers, and advanced mining. Also, humans need all the damn help they can get.

Audiomachine - I Create

@BBeast

I knew that song would show up sooner or later. I nominated it for the theme of the entire roleplay last time. (• ε •)

[Muttonhawk]

Here is the current state of my CS. I may improve on it, especially if I get feedback.

...Teknall, The Great Artisan...

@BBeast

This guy is a cool kid. I have a question, though. How much dibs has he got on ceramics? That's kind of a theme for my god. I was thinking of aiming for a portfolio those lines later on, when the automatons get numerous enough.

@Hael

My Opinion

[Scarifar]

Man, there are a crap top of us waiting for this. I can't imagine how tough it must be for Kho to manage this many people, even with Co-GM help.

@Muttonhawk

He's not that big on ceramics. You should be able to get that.

[Rtron]

@FrettzoDo you want Astarte to be in some way related to my god? I'm writing up my CS right now, and I thought it could be cool to play off the magic thing: either as brother/sister, lovers, or constant enemies (or all three...).

@Fabulous Knight

Sweet.

@Scarifar

It makes me want to die just thinking about it.

[Kho]

Just a warning, I'm aiming to announce who has been accepted tomorrow. If your CS is incomplete or has not been submitted, the assumption will be that you've withdrawn interest. I'm not sure how many applications we've got as of now, but our limit is going to be 20 players (and that's us taking into account that there may be attrition as the RP trots along as, indeed, there has already been)

[Lauder]

@Kho

[Antarctic Termite]

@Kho The real question is, did you finish your essay?

We'll be here for you if you need to take time off roleplaying and do something with your life.

I mean, that doesn't actually make any sense, but we do want you to do well.
