@Antarctic Termite

We are doing the oasis idea? Or is the change in god power enough to make it unecessary?

Godspeed!

Supernatural (Souls)

Description

Supernatural is that which is above and under the laws of nature, the orders of existence often unseen and the perceived acts of entities such as spirits. It is not equal to Paranormal, as the Supernatural is not adjacent to reality neither can it be explained. It is not equal as occult as it does not deal with the rituals and knowledge of such forces neither does it purposefully hide from mortals.

Souls are the atom of a mind, the seed of proper intelligent life. Even to gods very little is know about them beyond it being what a makes a being be, they are of similar nature to the interuniversal motifs that lead to similar features appearing in many universes, and often, even when stripped of all its memories and aspects and reduce to its very core, seem to be attracted to the same strings of fate.

Aʟɪɢɴᴍᴇɴᴛ

Chaotic Good. Kap Gam is a moral being, a protector of souls. At first glance, one might believe the stoic being is a protector of laws and the status-quo, at a second glance, one would be wise to notice their mistake.

Pᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ

Kap Gam is a tired being, often acting in a stoic manner, few words ever escaping her mouth and rarely making any movements beyond the necessary. Yet, her mind does not mirror her body language, often home to unseen impulsiveness, defeatism, and paranoia, but also of keen observations and lasting determination.

She is a benevolent entity, accepting that all mortals cannot be helped, but still making an effort for mortalkind's well-being. She is an ardent defender of souls, while she can overlook murder in the great cycle of things, the abuse of souls is unforgivable. Kap Gam is deeply machiavellian but not scheming, she simply believes that announcing distastes and entering in meaningless showcases of power is counterproductive to any cause, she much prefers a sudden and clean cut strike that solves the problem for once and for all.

Gᴏᴀʟs

Mater Lei's universe may be less of a glorified trap than other universes, but it still is a very taxing experience. While Kap Gam just needed to stay in it long enough to meet someone and retrieve something, the very transition forces her to stay for a bit longer and recover. It would be hard for her to lay low during that time, to even start to recover she needs a universe with a flow of souls, which forces her to get involved with aspects of reality and the intrigue of the divines.

Aᴘᴘᴇᴀʀᴀɴᴄᴇ

A tall figure with olive skin. She has a youthful human face, black eyes, and delicate features, her facial expressions are always that of someone who looks like they are about to fall asleep at any moment, yet there are no signs of unwellness typical of an exhausted or sick person such as bags under the eyes. Floating above her wavy cloudy-black hair, there a little ring with two colorful triangles on each side.

She wears a heavy looking cloak that seems to be made from something similar to wooden blocks and that covers most of her upper body, the hood of said cloak, however, is silky and white. Under it, one can peak at simple black clothes along with weird accessories that feel somewhere between amulets and devices, from one of those, a tube that is discreet in size but not in color goes up to her neck and connects with the skin. Just like with her face, the body hiding under the cloak looks healthy and strong, in stark contrast to her slow and tired movements.

The cloak and the relic look somewhat like this

Godspeed!

Oh wow, I completely missed that the thread was up >_>

As of right now I am the only chaotic evil god, and one of the only evil gods. A majority of the gods are neutral which is good and a few are good or lawful so they probably won't like what he does. As such, I have a sense of purpose to bring true terror into the world.

@Lord Zee

Haha, I kinda expected this to happen, Divinus Mk I and Mk II had this one thing where a lot of players played neutral, few players were good, and there was so much chaos eventually that most neutral gods started becoming comparatively good. I know that is why I pushed for good in this version, at least.

Eldritch abominations are always fun.

@darkwolf687

Oh, you are having so much fun in Divinus then! So much fun, you will not even know what to do with all the fun, you will be like "damn, how do I contain all this fun?" and later be like "Okay, this might be too much fun" but it will be too late, the fun is seeping from under your door, soon it will fill the room with pure fun, and there is no escape.

@Dawnscroll What was the last post you remember reading?

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

I do like the idea of it being a place in the map, lots of RP potential in that. Plus it look cools and is a sensible center to the map while also making it look more mystical.

@Antarctic Termite Is that something we should try discussing once the thread is up? Feels odd to leave the new players out.

Also, we are doing that "God Oasis" idea right? If so, an area that is convenient for a super secret divine land would be nice.

@Cyclone

Well, it's not exactly a nation RP even if a lot of time is spent on nation-building, furthermore, it takes place on a planet, which makes it not really artificially huge, just huge, it makes sense why something in a continent is not having action with another, the same way the Romans did not have a lot of action with the Chinese and Maya, and just a bit with the Ethiopians.

I won't lie I prefer this style to Mk1's style, as it gives a lot of breathing space, but I understand what your issue with it is. But I do not think its a land factor, but instead something with the way the game is played.

-Each player picks up a region and develops it, instead of doing multiple smaller world building projects in a variety of regions.

Its very understandable behavior really. But I feel like, say, Gerrik living in Eastern Mesathalassa, is an interesting experience.

-Players have regional storylines which are not good to interrupt.

For example, Vetros was stuck in one of these for a long time, making it hard for anyone to interact with it. Same is happening now with Western Mesathalassa, I made sure to leave huge chunks of time where much can happen, but the next a hundred years of the continent are set, and then I will be free to leave it be.

-Not many heroes and gods interact with other civilizations

Which seems to be again a result of the cordiality, it is a bit better than having a dragon god crashing in mid-plot, but it has its own issues. Collabs can fix that.

So, down to it, I see two issues:

Regions are more malleable than they look, a lot of people seem intimidated to act in regions where others are active, but the distance between say, the northmost to the southmost harbor kingdom is the same as Lisbon-Baghdad I think, so there is room for even someone outright deciding to build up a town in there. The big issue seems to be history wise, which can be quickly solved by asking the player who is working the region.

Collabs too, collabs are always good but there aren't many that don't involve a god, inviting players to interact with your region could work. It's an issue I have myself, even with BBeast having a character next door.

What I don't think will help is to make the world too small or giving everyone impossibly fast boats and horses. It makes sense that all the average MSTLS noble knows about Vetros are distant stories because that is a distant region.

<Snipped quote by Double Capybara>

I currently do not have a vector program on my main computer.

EDIT: If you're worried about quality when zoomed in, the map is currently around 5000x6000, so it shouldn't be a problem.

@WrongEndoftheRainbow

My worry is on the side of forests, land alterations and islands, we had an issue with these on MK2. At least layers are a must, or we will be facing a wall two weeks into the RP.
