[quote=@Oraculum] I have indeed acquainted myself with the introductory posts, and am now making my way through the story so far. Someday ([i]someday[/i]...) I will probably get to the wiki, as well. As for character creation, I was envisioning a demigod. My fundamental idea would be for it(?) to have power over a domain commonly seen as sterile or negative, in the sense of involving absence or privation of some sort - possibilities I am considering include such things as the void, darkness, some interpretations of purity - and attempting to overcome its inherent limitations in order to create something from it. Concerning its parents, I suppose I should first decide on the most basic details. Thus far, Toun strikes me as a fairly appropriate candidate theme-wise, but ultimately I believe it would be better to determine this later on so as for it to make the most sense. Or the least, depending on what would work better for the story. [/quote] Our god of Darkness(Shadows) died very early on, so it would be interesting if somebody actually took Darkness up and explored it. Darkness(Voids) could definitely work as a Domain(Portfolio). You mention Purity. That is also rather interesting - though I struggle to see how it can be translated into something workable. But from your words that seems to be the challenge you're setting yourself. So a god of Purity would certainly be interesting and challenging. I would enjoy seeing where you take it.
