    Default The Gods of (Insert Name of Place Here) [Discussion / Sign-Up]

    Each player is a God/Goddess/God-thing.

    They all live on a planet, and have followers, and a couple (As in two, but more is acceptable) of Domains of Power. Hilarity (or giant epic wars, which count as hilarity for some gods) ensues.

    You'll be playing as your god, and also controlling some of your worshipper's actions most likely.

    The RP starts before the creation of the planet this is set on with the gods immediatley going about creating everything.

    You get to create a race, or more. If you can, stick with one. My won't, but for a special reason that will be explained. Humans are off-limits, they just kinda sorta pop up for unknown reasons. Elves as a whole are off limits as well, but the individual varieties can be created.

    From their, we go off as we please.

    Name:
    Domain:
    Usual appearance:
    Chosen Race: (if applicable - you decide to make a race of your own that'll be primarily your worshippers)
    Personality:
    Granted Abbilities: (What sort of abbilities do races get for following you?)

    Name:
    Domain:
    Usual appearance:
    Chosen Race:
    Personality:
    Granted Abbilities:

    Name: Noname (No-name) AKA Nameless One, God Mage, and Great Changer
    Domain: Change (At first), Magic (Later on)
    Usual appearance: A purple cloak, gloves, and boots filled with ethereal darkness. Only the three eyes in the cloak stand out. The right is blue, the left is red, and the upper one is yellow. It carries a purple wizard staff with knob at the top.
    Chosen Race: N/A
    Personality: Eccentric, jealous, ammoral, and distant if not nosey
    Granted Abbilities: N/A, although it did grant the God's Tongue to wizards, that doesn't count

    Also, the magic system is split between the four different spell casters.

    Gods: You guys. You have unlimited energy and a language (God's Tongue) that can change reality. However thew ords and phrases you have (Spells), although nigh unlimited, is all themed by your domain. The spells are instinctive, so you can't go manipulating it. The only exception is Noname who has taken the time to study the God's Tongue and break it down for what it really is. Also, although the gods of unlimited energy for spell casting, they can only siphon so much at a time. How much is dependent on how many followers you have (Except in the beggining when you have quite a bit of power at your disposal). The only exception, again, is Noname who has no followers but used its knowledge of the God's Tongue to tap its primordial force to become equal to a god with a healthy amount of followers.

    Clerics: Those who pray to their god and our granted power. Like their gods, the spells they get our limited by the god's domain. Only Noname has no clerics since it dropped the domain of Change soon (Relatively) after the creation of all thing and picked up Magic, and Magic isn't a domain that can be dominated by even the likes of a god. Siphoning the divine power will drain them of their strength, but not as much other spell casters. Their warrior equivalents are Paladins.

    Sorcerors: Demi-gods, spawn of god and mortal or at least of same blood line as a god, who know the God's Tongue instinctively as well. However, the amount of spells they have is much more limited than their divine ancestors. Casting spells drains strength but demigod tend to have that in abundance. Thier warrior equivalent are Warlocks. Cleric Sorcerors are known Bishops.

    Wizards: After learning the basis of the God's Tongue, Noname descended to the Material Plane and shared his secrets to the mortals. Mortal beings without divine descent have a harder time grasping the god tongue. Unlike the gods and their spawn, however, they are not limited to a domain or theme. Although it takes the longer to cast a spell, preparing a spell before hand (Like writing it down) cuts casting time, but the writing will fade unless it is carved or written with special ink or blood. Wizard tend to have the worst of it with energy drain since they have as much drain as a sorceror but not the same abundance of energy a sorceror has. This can be fixed in several ways, such as learning how to conserve energy, raising the amount of energy available, or finding outside sources of power to tap like an untilligent power or unwitting deity. Their warrior equivalent are Knights. Wizard Sorcerers are known as Mages. Wizard Clerics are known as Witches.

    Psionics: Although, techically not spellcaster, they have supernatural powers derived from the mind. Certainly less epic than wizards, their powers are easier to use and severely less draining. Their warrior equivalent are Jedi. Psionic Wizards are known as Sith. Psionic Clerics are known as Heralds. Psionic Sorcerors are known as Users.

    Describe the Dominion Wraths better. Also, you can add more domains, like War since it fits in with Destruction.

    Is it okay if I have 2 races?
    A lot of people get sentience confused for sapience. Your hamster is sentient, you are sapient. Intelligence is sapience.

    Domain refers to the theme of the god. Yours seems to be the Sun, possibly Light as well.

    Name: Xaneth

    Titles: The Cruel, The Unforgiving, The Generally Nasty (Self Proclaimed)

    Domain: Cruelty, Apathy, and Ignorance

    Usual appearance: Anybody remember Jack of Blades from Fable?

    Changed Race: Dark Elves

    Personality: He appears generous or fair, but there is almost always a catch. He cares little for the lives of mortals, only really doing anything good for his followers alone. And even then, they sometimes get the short end of the stick. Granted, their end is longer than the other guys', but it's still short. Those select few in his favor, though, are granted great and terrible powers.

    Granted Abilities: Those who follow the God Xaneth gain powers of the minds and wills of others. This goes anywhere from illusions to mind control, emotion control, or other mind altering spells. He also grants them an increased affinity with Magic and its applications. They gain some increased physical abilities, mostly involving speed, quickness, and stealth.

    It was weird to type my username for an RPG character.

    ~Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste. I've been around for a long, long, year, stole many a man's soul and faith.

    So if you meet me, have some courtesy, have some sympathy, and some taste. Use all your well-learned politesse, or I'll lay your soul to waste.

    Could I have a better description of these Chosen Races please?

    Also, it is assumed that Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Orc, and Halfling exist without the aid of the gods for... some... reason.... They are considered Free Races and can choose which god they worship, or not to worship a god at all, although certain races will gravitate towards certain gods.

    Then their are the Changed Races. These are the doing of Noname, who cannot create races of its own so contents itself with changing other races, be they Chosen or Free. This make Noname a particularly unpopular god with its fellow deities.

    Also, a new section to be added to the profile of your god.

    A real quick description: The Ferens are a manatee/whale like four armed peaceful fully aquatic species.
    The currently unnamed race is more of a warrior race. And more amphibious (they can go on land).
    I'll add more info on both.

    I'll have to think about it.
