I didn't like how the map was so connected together, so I made this. Thoughts?


It looks weird, too broken and like, 90% of the surface is water, Earth is like 70%.

Did you change from bitmaps to vectors for land and layers too? This is a huge issue with the current MK2 map.
I checked the Mega-Summary and both Hain and Elementals showed up in Turn 3 on this Divinus, and I wouldn't say MK2 turns were slow. People would probably create areas, servants, monsters, equipment, little biomes, so on. Though I do think with Free it would be fine if Mater made a base sentient species. What I find more important though is land, as it will help to keep the flow of RP with the pace of Free, however, I find that what sort of initial planet we should have could be better discussed when Freevinus has its own thread.

Anyway, I should have said Kap Gam's opening move will be to create a source for souls, which obviously will help anyone to create their species or whatever. A small god can create a local population and them spread them, its what Toun did and Hain are everywhere.

I am torn on my opinion over the initial "world building" scene happening or not, they are always so confusing and full of things and likely to somehow both stale up and go out of control at the same time, its a pattern with all three Divinus. Wonder how that would go with free, but I would advise for a strong hand of Mater, if we are allowing gods to create the world, one wish and you are out of the room or something like that.




Edit:

I think it could work if the world initiated as a cold desert or just water or seas of sand, the cool gods congregate in one area, create a small oasis of life, each one flexing their divine muscle, and then from there, life spreads to the rest of the planet. The outcasts, shy, and edgy, could go and make their own areas with pool tables and punk music, send just an ambassador, or act in the shadows.

Such area would work in a similar way to the initial "nothingness" of the previous divinus MKs, except once it is done and the world has life, this original land could become a permanent "godly land", legendary to mortals, coveted by many gods, so on. (though it would take some turns, or for example, if there is no god of seas, it could stay permanently as a land where sand separates continents instead of water, so on)
I just finished reading a book and want something new, any media similar to Divinus? Creating a god made me want to get into something mythological.
What is the point of the new system if all gods start at level 3? It is not like mk2 immediately had a world brimming with sentient life from the stsry either or that a level 1-3 god can't create a few species on a local level with time spreading them out later.
Still don't have fancy stuff, couldn't find a good image yet (had even to draw some stuff) and couldn't even decide on the color I will use. But I am starting to take a liking to this.



@Double Capybara well, what would the Domain(Portfolio) of this other god be? Would they be good, evil neutral?


Chaotic Good, Supernatural (Souls).

What's the other one you're thinking about? Susa?


Goddess Susa would be interesting, but it would be weird to write her here and write her there. It is kinda hard to explain without giving spoilers, but it is really a character that was just going to be mentioned in MK2, she gives context to some of the intrigues going on in certain posts. Can't talk much without going into deep spoilers zone.

Did you just imply our lord and savior Putin-senpai is by any mean not Lawful Good?

Perhaps a free copy of Half-Life will change your mind.

Illunabar is definitely not actively evil, and the things she does don't harm anyone generally. But is she an actively good goddess? Would she go out of her way to protect mankind or some such? Maybe I'm wrong, but Ily is more interested in good stories and her own projects rather than the 'greater good' or the removal of suffering or what have you.
But I agree with you in that she's not actively evil or chaotic.


Ah yes, that is definitely right about Ilu.

There are a few acts who are good in nature, another reminder I should get done with my next post, but overall she is more in some sort of egoistical neutrality focused on her own projects, luckily to mortals a lot of them do make life better, but it's not something done from goodwill, moral or empathy.
@Frettzo Awesome - looks like Godspeed is going to have at least two actively good gods. The only good god of this iteration was Niciel (and maybe now Belru, but SHE WAS EVIL AT THE START, PURE EVIL).

I can see her and Seihdhara making a good partnership, and Seihdhara will definitely be crying in her lap every now and again xP


Ilunabar is basically Neutral Good at this point, sometimes going a bit True Neutral. Teknall is surely good. Toun is Arguably Good at times, especially post chaos horde.

Also, I am still torn between my cooking god or perhaps a certain character that is related to a few active plots in my posts in this Divinus but would never show up in the MK2 universe. I think Sou is a more traditional god, and that is kinda cool, but the other one could be a bit more active instead of peripheric.
if y'all thought regular Jvan was weird.


I made an "uh-oh" noise aloud in the middle of a class when I read that and noticed there was a new IC post.
