[h3]Instructions:[/h3][list][*] Using the [url=https://titanpad.com/EpldNoXA4z]provided template[/url], please post a character here. [*] Once accepted, we'll place the character on the chart (below) that shows various characters and their relations. This should be a useful tool for navigating factions. [*] If your character is part of the conspiracy that killed Aroesus, I need to know in PM. There is an advantage and disadvantage to it; the hands that slew the King of Gods took some measure of his power, though they dare not necessarily reveal it for fear of turning other hands against them. But it's there, if one is wise enough to use it carefully where it counts. [*] Please consider one of the requested roles. [*] Don't make your deity too much of a moral absolutist, like some sort of stern god of justice -- because those characters don't get very far in the intrigue. Or if you do, make them easily manipulated. [*] Post only sheets in here, thank you.[/list] [h3]Requested Roles:[/h3][list][*] A deity devoted to bacchanalia/drunkeness and revelry. [*] A deity that runs the afterlife, though not entirely Malezus, the underworld. [*] A deity in the underworld that acted as Aroesus jailer. A potential option here is that the character came to be as a combination of the energy released from the death of Aroesus and the entities guarding Lake Sharzunates. [*] Deities that see the dead to the underworld and other parts; possibly in conflict with the underworld deity -- after all, bringing souls to that individual is merely empowering them. [*] Aroesus' favorite child, not necessarily the eldest, who he was grooming to inherit. [*] Aroesus' eldest child, who was being groomed to inherit and who has considerable clout with many of the older deities. Recently freed from Sharzunates after being put there by his/her late father. [*] Mysia - She is a daughter of Ventu and Lymaeus, one of two children of that joining. [*] Children of Lymaeus, more likely to be less refined and more representative of natural phenomena than representations of power. These deities were treated as second class citizens in Krona compared to descendants of Ventu's brood. [*] Dihira, the Dark Librarian, the Serpent of Knowledge, Mistress of the House of Books, Mother of Serpents. A daughter of Svanus and heir to his knowledge. She slithers through the House of Books, the Dark Library, which is also the corpse of her father. [*] Children of Ventu, including at least one who ought to have children of their own who they think should take the throne...or who wish the throne themselves. Aroesus played them against each other and watched his siblings like a hawk, probably alienating them by the end. [*] Deities formed from new concepts and creations, as well as perhaps a mortal or two that achieves apotheosis. I'm open to good ideas that add to the story.[/list] [h3]Character Sheet[/h3] [indent](Please place in a hider. The [url=https://titanpad.com/EpldNoXA4z]provided template[/url] has the code already written for it. This is just an example of the sheet format.) [B]Name/Titles:[/B] [B]Sex/Gender[/B]: Can be rather mutable, in the case of immortals. Maybe it's best to say, what sex do they present themselves as? [B]Pantheon/Affiliation:[/B]Deity, Ex-deity or powerful being seeking apotheosis. [B]Patronage:[/B] [indent](This is what your deity is; a primary thing that they have authority over, though some deities have multiple patronages, such as Apollo or Athena did.)[/indent] [B]Appearance:[/B] [indent](Please include common manifestations, including lecherous geese.)[/indent] [B]Parentage:[/B] [indent](You can say things like "the sky" with a straight face here. Joy. Joy too. You can come sprung fully grown out of dad's skull. You can be descended of a goose and your mom, who clearly didn't have high standards.)[/indent] [B]Centres of Worship/Places of Power:[/B] [indent](Example: Athens and Athena, the Oracle of Delphi and Apollo, Achilles, descended of a river nymph...so on and so forth. A deity may be a patron of a city or a kingdom, but I am going to say that deities cannot control the free will of mortals, that's what makes them so irritating, and thus while able to influence events in these places, they will not have absolute power over them. There is a give and take between such worshipers and their deities, too, as the patron is expected to do things for their patronage.)[/indent] [B]Servants, Prominent Followers and Worship Base:[/B] [indent](I'm looking for an idea of what sort of people follow your deity and an idea of what sort of spirits/beings might be their servants, through which they make their wills be known. Prominent worshipers would mean prophets, kings and otherwise important mortals that are loyal to your deity. This can, of course, include playwrights, poets, singers and so forth...be creative. Worship base are the normal everyday people of various trades, tribes, nationalities and so forth who might find your god to be their patron/matron.)[/indent] [B]Psychology:[/B] [indent](What is pleasing to them and what drives them mad will do; even the more benevolent deities ought to have their egomaniacal and selfish side.)[/indent] [B]History:[/B] [indent](An explanation of from whence the deity came and what befell them in various events. It's not a bad idea to cooperate with other players on this and expand as you see fit.)[/indent] [B]Relationships:[/B] [indent](Loves, hates, lusts, crushes, affairs, rapes, incests, zoophilia incidents with shepherd girls (always a Jovian favorite) and the like. Oh, and mere alliances and rivalries, as well. Probably fueled by the above. You don't have to list every character, just the ones your character actually has ties to/strong feelings for.)[/indent] [/indent]
