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

[Hael]

<Snipped quote by Kangutso>

Ah. But glancing through the character section, I noticed someone else.

@Angel Eyes Do you still intend to make a character?

@Cyclone

They should! It's Valentine's Day, afterall: we need the power of love!

[Kho]

Nop, he dropped out too

[Hael]

Appearance:
His Primal form is that of a humanoid man, standing tall and dressed in heavy, black robes. He wears a mask made from a shiny silver metal, in the shape of a skull (without the cheekbone). One can only see his bright purple eyes, and the his mouth with black lips and fair, blue-greyish skin around it. On his right hand he wears a gauntlet made from the same metal as his mask. He carries a lantern with his armored hand. Within it burns a purple flame. His left hand is left bare. It looks boney and meager. Even the skin doesn’t look right. A dark blue, like it’s frozen.

@Legion02

Try as I might, after reading that description, I will never be able to shake this mental image :


( I love your character, however)

[Nevix]

Watching RWBY is the worst thing that ever happened to me, seriously, fuck Miles Luna.

[Kho]

Figured I might as well do what all the cool kids are doing and try (and probably fail) to get a spot on the first page of the OOC for work in progress stuff. I'm leaving this purposefully bare-bones as all heck because I should really be in bed. Also may or may not add in a Water (Oceans) God tomorrow after I've recovered some of my faculties, assuming multiple characters are a thing.

More exciting developments coming tomorrow morning. I hope.

@Nevix

Here's a comment I made on another thread, where some analysis was taking place, if you'd like to read:

Spoilers for RWBY

Although, I did predict correctly that we'd see Taiyang in episode 12, but I thought it would be in a Big Heroes moment and not post-action. The distinction between Winter Maiden power and Silver-Eye Warrior is bugging me.

Even after the kiss between Jaune and Pyrrha, I wasn't daring to think that Pyrrha would be sacrificing herself. Even in the fight she was doing well, giving me hope that she wouldn't by dying, but ultimately my hopes were dashed. Pyrrha's death strikes me a lot harder than Penny's did. The entire situation with Jaune is terribly sad, but I'm glad to see he hasn't shut down like Yang has. Did anyone else get a Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince vibe? Terrible tragedy has fallen upon the school; the headmaster is out of the picture (though possibly not dead? No confirmation, and Salem did appear to be talking to him in the end) and the heroes have left to try and solve things on their own. Of course, by heroes I'm referring to Ruby, jaune, Ren, and Nora, who've lost so much. This finale did leave a lot of loose ends -I personally would have liked to see even a short clip of Mercury, Neo, Emerald, Ironwood, and possibly other students- but overall I'd say it was good--if 'good' is taken into account alongside 'hurts a lot'.

Qrow's semblance is interesting because of its retroactive implications. How many crows have we seen throughout the series? Is Raven's semblance similar, given the potential though rare status of semblances as hereditary? Naturally, I'm wondering what Salem's connection is to Ozpin and Pyrrha. I'm not one for denial, but I would like to see Pyrrha again, not necessarily alive, but in an impactful role on the plot regardless, somewhat like Dumbledore in Deathly Hallows.

@Cyclone I withdrew my CS, and have so far failed to make a new deity that satisfies me.

@The Omnipotent Sphere

If you still want to be part of the RP, just let me know. Your CS, though you didn't like it in the end, was brilliant and would have gotten you through, I'd say. On that basis alone, and since it is an exceptional case, I'll be allowing you to take some more time to make another that satisfies you - if you still wish to be part of the RP that is.

[Legion02]

@Kho Is my CS accepted? Or rather, what should be improved to be accepted?

((also i know it's supposed to be in a hider, i'll post it in one when it gets accepted))

The Shadow of Revelations, the Transcendent Mother, the Scribe of Souls, the Overly Long CS!

"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents" - H.P. Lovecraft

“No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness.” ― Aristotle

Name:
Vulamera
(Pronounce the "Vula" and "mera" almost like separate words, or a compound word. "Vula, mera"/"Vula-mera". If it rhymes, you're saying it right)

Alias:
Transcendent Mother
The Scribe of Souls
Shadow of Revelation

Gender:
Vulamera will be the first to comment on the uselessness of gender among gods- which are beings of pure energy by definition, and thus have no separate and defined male/female/other reproductive organs for which gender can be based on. Despite this, she tends towards femininity when she chooses to appear, as the male form seems too... confrontational, physical, war-built. It just doesn't suit her purposes.

Domain (Portfolio):
Mind (Intelligence/Perception)

Mind (Intelligence/Perception) Description:

How does one explain a mind? Explain the complexity of living thought? It is perhaps the most orderly and the most savagely chaotic system in existence. It is mankind's knowledge, it is animal's instinct; it is a God's wisdom, it is a mortal's foolishness; it is passionate emotion, it is cold logic. That's the thing about minds: potential is unbound. They are the ultimate organic information-processors. Nothing found in nature can contain, solve, or act on mass amounts of foreign information faster than the brain. The only true limit is the evolution of their wielders.

Claiming this power as her own, Vulamera transcends to a level beyond mundane comprehension. If gods are to humans what humans are to animals, than she is such to the other gods... at least in terms of sheer intellect. In the physical or spiritual realms, the Transcendent Mother falls far from dominate, preferring instead to submissively guide those stronger than herself onto the correct path, should they will her advice. If not, she will retreat to her private plane of reality, where she can coldly watch their inevitable, foolish downfall.

---

Speaking of intelligence, it gets along famously with her domain. You see, just as her marvelous mind allows Vulamera to absorb mountains of data, her intelligence and perception links this data together, making her the only lifeform capable of truly comprehending this universe. She can make a few observations here, take a few notes there, and ingeniously correlate all together into an advanced, accurate theory. Most of the time, that is: she does not claim omniscience, as a less humble one might in her position, but she will certainly accuse those who dare challenge her assertions as sorely mistaken.

Her journey into knowledge is far from complete, however. Even from the moment she was born into this world, Vulamera could feel something else lingering just outside her mental understanding. Some unheard of, undiscovered, ground-breaking truth that constantly alludes her, teases her, taunts her. It feels like she is standing outside a locked door, with the key dangling from a string just outside her reach: try as she might, she cannot unlock this door. It may be a single unifying equation to explain the entirety of reality, or one holy theory that puts to rest all uncertainties as to the nature of this world. No matter what this find is, she always seems to be one step away from discovering it, but never any closer.


Alignment:

She holds herself to Lawful Neutral not because of any childishly preconceived notion of morality or order, but simply because this is the "alignment" least likely to damage the universe, or shift it away from it's current state. Vulamera desires this world to remain in its present form so that she may study and learn from it. If chaos rules, all the world will be in such constant change as to make pointless the study of any element except chaos- as it would set itself up to be life's only constant.

On the other hand, Vulamera would argue that 3x3 alignment "systems" are far too vague to really capture the essence of ethics and morality. Given proper motivation, she will likely devise a more complex system of measuring general behavior, which she will teach to the other Divines. Whether they want to hear it or not is of no consequence - education holds dominance over desire.

Personality:
The Scholar. The Web-Weaver. The Scribe. The Cold and the Calculating. The Sage. The Counselor. The Thinker. These words are Vulamera's essence: the hold her together.

She is cold and collected, normally unbiased by her personal feelings but known for fits of rage when confronted with the uncaring nature of other Gods. She sees those divinites like children who play with their toys only to toss them away when they grow bored, build their sandcastles only to have them crumbled by greater forces. Afterall, what do any of the Gods truly know of the universe? All, including Vulamera, were cast into this world without so much as a single explanation, beyond the cryptic words of fate or the unanswered stare of Amul'Sharar. Do her siblings not care? Do they think that, because they are Gods, the inexplicable nature of their predicament does not matter? The fools! They know nothing of the world beyond this universe, nothing, and yet they would rather sit and play with civilizations or petty power struggles than attempt to find out why and how they exist! They cannot simply exist because they are gods, to think such is a logical fallacy.

Any who will aid her on a mission of understanding has her utmost respect as an equal- even the mortal child races, who some are idiotically prone to underestimating. However, those who seek simply to upset the balance of this world with no care for consequences, the Vestecs and Zephyrions of the universe, are forever beneath her. She does not even hate them: they are not worth despising. They do not deserve even malice.

---

Vulamera would have you believe that she is a curious scientist, a researcher of the universe who desires only peace in which she may study alone. And while this projected image of herself has- as do all her words- a modicum of truth in it, reality is always more complicated. In fact, everything about Vulamera is complicated: there is nothing simple with her, she operates like a computer.

What the Transcendent Mother will never admit is that she's slowly losing her mentality to an obsession reaching far beyond scientific curiosity. From the moment she came into this world, when all was empty and not even darkness had been made, she was filled with a desire for knowledge that is as deep as it insatiable. She doesn't just desire to gain information, she needs to. She needs to because she can't shake the idea that an infinitely important discovery- one that could perhaps tell her the answers to all the many questions this universe poses- lies just outside her field of vision, taunting her like a toy held from of an infant's reach. Gradually, the idea of reaching this unknown discovery that may not even exist is consuming her. Vulamera has always been an introvert, but with every passing second she dwells on this goal she is becoming more internal and emotional, practically autistic, in her reasoning.
And it's slowly driving her to insanity.

Appearance:

Vulamera is thought, and thought has no shape.

In the Void before time, when the Gods were first birthed into existence by Fate and Amul'Sharar, Vulamera was no more than a formless mass of consciousness. She had no tangible shape, no image: if another God had looked in her direction, they would have seen nothing in her place. Perhaps their divinity would have led them to realize the presence of their sister goddess, but they could not have pinned down a view of her. She was composed entirely of pure mental energy.

That is the Shadow of Revelations most natural body, if one can bring themselves to label it a "body" at all. Most often Vulamera remains within her true embodiment, living completely outside this psychical plane and becoming real only on a mental level. Practically, this means that arriving in her truest form does no damage to anything except the malleable minds of humans and the like. On the other hand, while any deity could drive a mortal mind to insanity, her arrival is so mentally powerful as to utterly destroy the minds... their brains simply cease to function all together.

Of course, like all respectable deities, she will inevitably decide several favored forms for herself, but this will have to be explored in time.

Musical Theme:
It's simple and cliche, but I couldn't think of any song that "felt" more like my Vulamera than this one: Green City - Lonely

Description:

The Sanctum:

Vulamera is the aloof scholar. She gazes disdainfully about her at the other Gods or their churlish creations, and feels as though she's the single bastion of civilization in a growling, snarling, spitting pack of savages. She needs an escape. A silent place of the mind, where only the very wise or the very strange may gain the Transcendent Mother's permission to enter.

Therefore, she will create a private plane of reality titled The Sanctum of Memories. The Sanctum will be buried away in a "space-time fold". This oasis is untouched by the ravages of time, invincible to destruction from the harsh exterior world, and a home to Vulamera's closest followers.

Levitating within her plane are orbs of sea-foam green or sapphire, each one molded from a semi-solid, fleshy material reminiscent of skin or fat. These orbs vary widely in size, but the unifying factor is that they are always perfectly and flawlessly spherical. Most repulsive, however, are the string of gooey flesh connecting each orb to many others, above or below or beside them. Taking a first glance at Vulamera's realm, one could say it looks like a massive, infinitely complex spider's web.

Of course, as with all things the Transcendent Mother crafts, these strange machinations serve a clear purpose: the Web functions like a brain. The orbs receive and decipher information, while the strings of flesh carry precious data between them. Thus, Vulamera can store almost infinite memories within the Sanctum's Web. And she does so: because of the Web's unique ability to carry thoughts, Vulamera stores all of her knowledge within them. Everything she has learned, every idea she's had, every observation she's made... it all goes into the Sanctum for eternal remembrance. In a way, this Web contains all the kind of a Goddess.

But that's not the end of it. While the largest flesh-orbs may have the privilege of hosting Vulamera's thoughts, their smaller cousins take in mortal memories. With every mortal that dies, one of many spirits created by Vulamera will come to steal the last dying spark from his mind, collecting all his memories and bringing them to the Sanctum for research and records. Such is why Vulamera is named the "Scribe of Souls", because while she does not truly take their spirits (she does not meddle in what is clearly the domain of others), their cataloged thoughts and memories will forever be studied in her realm.

((Naturally, I won't be starting the RP with any of this, but all of it will be added as the RP progresses))

Vulamera's interactions with mortals:

It is a rare thing for Gods to allow their followers a guaranteed, constant way of summoning them. Divines are not pets, to come at the beck-and-call of childish mortals. Nonetheless, Vulamera may teach the inner-ring of her inner-ring of followers a sacred ritual that, if they are worthy, may call her attention. If they're judged to be worth the effort, she might even appear for them.

In these uncommon interactions with mortals, Vulamera's very presence casts an aura of genius, carrying with it revelations and sudden waves of brilliance to those who come to bask in it. A doctor attempting to treat an insurmountable illness may suddenly realize the cure, as if it had always been right in front of them. A philosopher may be granted a small speck of the Goddess's own wisdom, to aid them in their undying pursuit of life's many unanswered questions.

This is the true appeal of worshiping the Transcendent Mother. While other Gods shower their followers in material excess or empty power, Vulamera grants the ultimate need: understanding.

@Hael

Holy hell. I see why it took you so long to post. Great sheet m80

[Cyclone]

@Legion02

I like Reathos as a concept. Since you asked for feedback, here's a few things that it might behoove you to expand upon in your sheet:

1. More on his personality, specifically when it comes to how he would interact with other gods. Does he mind his own business in their affairs? Would he be willing to fight them, and if so, over what?

2. Expanding on the above, how would he react to mortals beyond appreciating those that don't resist their own death?

3. Maybe elaborate a little bit on what powers he has.

As a simple thought exercise, I'd encourage everyone to stop and ask themselves what they're going to be spending their Might points on. Is your god going to make their own private fortress/planet/dimension? Give the mortals some kind of new magic? Create life? Assemble a bunch of Holy Orders to carry out their will?

Thinking about that will help you figure out if you like your character and probably shed some light on how you've been envisioning their personality. For instance, if you realize that your character is probably going to be doing more meddling and destroying than they are creating, that might b worth adding to your character sheet, and them from there you could explain why they're like that in the personality section, and so on.

[Nevix]

Since everyone is asking for feedback on their sheets, how's mine looking

Daegon

Name: Daegon

Alias: Prince of Lies, King of Thieves.

Gender: Male

Domain (Portfolio): Deceit (Psychological Manipulation)

Domain (Portfolio) Description: Daegon is the God of Deceit, more specifically, Psychological Manipulation. Psychological Manipulation being lies, shaming, guilt-tripping, hypnotism, anything and everything needed to bend someone’s will to suit his own goals. As a god of Deceit, thievery, trickery, mischief and the like are also well-known words in his vocabulary, but none so-much as Manipulation. That being said his unique powers stem from his natural penchant for shaping one’s mind. “If the mind is clay, then I am the potter.”, however, some clay is more malleable than others. Daegon realises that there are stronger beings than himself and adopts a more subtle strategy to further his own goals. Rather than attempt to convince someone to do something, Daegon might subliminally implant an idea in one’s mind, using suggestion, lies and sabotage to set up grand schemes that may take millennia to come to fruition.

Alignment: Chaotic

Personality: Daegon loves a good story. He cares not for trifling matters such as good or evil, only for the story. To him, all of the Gods and Goddess and their creations are just character’s in a story of which he is, if not the author, the editor. He sees events unfold and manipulates them to be more enthusing. He realises that without good or evil, order or chaos, truth or lies, there could be no conflict. A conflictless world is a boring world, and that’s something that Daegon just won’t tolerate.

Appearance: Daegon finds holding one form to be too honest. He chooses to constantly adopt new forms. He occasionally takes the standard form of another God, just to screw with people. His “true form”, which he only wears around his most trusted friends is that of shadows taking a vaguely humanoid shape.

True Form

When taking the form of a human, he typically chooses to take the form of a “magician”.

Usual Human Form

Musical Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eA35x3zxgY

Description: Daegon’s presence is felt in the same way one might sense someone watching you as one sleeps. This stems from Daegon’s nature as a watcher, and when need be (as there often is.) a manipulator of events.

@Nevix This is just a cosmetic thing, but why is he wearing a 20th century magician outfit?

@The Omnipotent SphereWhy are we talking about humans and mortals and why are other people's gods dressed in stuff like 18th century dresses? None of these have really been invented yet.

It's probably just ease of communication. We are not ultimately our gods.

@The Omnipotent SphereValid point, I'll consider a change.

I think I'm going to turn Daegon into that slightly obsessed character from every movie where royalty is ever featured. You know, the guy who gives the princess all the creepy compliments and calls her something like "darling", and then when he's revealed to be the bad guy, he tries to convince the female lead the he and her aren't so different.
