@A Lowly Wretch So we're basically making makeshift Elder Gods?

Good evening everyone. Sorry for the delays, I've been sandwiched between sleep and my monitor's near death experience. Getting straight back to business now.

@jetipster@Kalas@Archangel89@Legion02@thewizardguy - I have reviewed your characters and have confirmed their validity. They are accepted and you are welcome to submit them to the characters tab.

Edit: @Legion02 I will note that Ragnagedon's theories of his and the other god's origins may largely be the result of his delirium as not even the other gods know what's responsible for their creation.

@ZekariVoblis - In a sense. The timeline more or less begins at early man so gods that are present then will still be relatively young for the time being. There will always be opportunities for new gods to arrive later at specific instances.

Well, If the god of wisdom and knowledge didn't abuse her, she'd like him simply because he's smart. More conversation. But if he's a jerk, she will torture him, even at the risk of terminating something new from all existence.

@A Lowly Wretch Awesome to hear. With regards to your note about Ragnagedon, does this mean I shouldn't refer to Azhriel as the child of Life and Death?

@Kalas - Indeed. None know if such gods even exist let alone who they have sired.

@Lord Zee Just a heads-up, Wonderdraft is being released as Early Access on Oct 1 for $19.99.

@Kalas Hey cool! 20 bucks is a bit much for me right now though, and I don't even know what else I would use for it XD

[@all] I defined what the "Sin Curse" is on my creation tab. If it's toooooo OP, let me know.

Well, Iva isn't a jerk per say. just 100% insane and does anything for knowledge if something/someone is keeping them from it. Will probably mention black goo seeping from eyes and probably scratch odd symbols onto the surface of things because 'It helps the mind focus'.

But yes, I can see them sharing both their insanity and creating quite a few magical and scientific constructs together. He'll probably want her to teach one of the humans in White Dawn magic.

All I needed to know. Been on a writing crave lately and making an Elder God sounds like a throat quencher.

I agree with the thought. Dirka loves humanity, even after loosing her marbles, so she'd gladly teach any form of magic.

I decided to add some details to the Lost Lands. Hopefully I'd be allowed to add this to the CS?

Looking forward to this, btw.

They shall make wonderfully terrible creations together, huhu.

@thewizardguy
You say he shall be the enemy of knowledge.

but Iva is going to love him because he'll always give them more stuff to research/look for...also probably want to usurp his title so he can be that themselves. So that'll be fun.

Knowledge actively hurts Sommler, so the greater Iva's understanding of the world the weaker Sommler becomes. The simple fact that Iva and his library exist is probably the biggest threat to his power. So it'll be an..... INTERESTING relationship.

I had considered that Iva and Sommler would be as fire and water. Sommler destroys knowledge and certainty, while Iva creates it. But I suppose that from Iva's perspective that might be a good thing.

Possessing both the domains of Knowledge and the Unknown..... that would be a strange god indeed. What would that be like? Certainly it would be rather interesting.

@ZekariVoblis - Excellent to hear. If you do bring a character forth I look forward to seeing them.

@thewizardguy - While the basic principle of a sub-space realm where normal laws of reality don't work quite as they should is fine I must ask that the entrances be a little more concrete. As they are required to be rooted in the main realm in order to bridge the gap between the two the same principles that govern other doorways to sub-space realms apply to them no less. Upon his realm's creation these entrances can be as few or as numerous as desired but they must be solid and destructible objects. Due to a rule unknown to even the gods built into the world these entrances can't be moved either. New entrances can always be built and old ones can be removed but once set these entrances remain fixed to the location they are set until they are destroyed. One thing Sommler can do is imbue his entrances with divine properties designed to make it harder for unwanted guests to intrude upon his realm.

@Lord Zee - Being a goddess afflicting mundane beings is well within her power. Given the size and duration of the curse I'd suspect it would have exhausted her a fair bit for a decent while, perhaps even on a continual basis if she wanted to maintain a constant feed of divine power to this curse to keep it from waning with time as all things do.

As a final mention for everyone I'll continue working on the opening post over the next couple of days. If I had to set a rough estimate of the anticipated start time I'd say likely the day after tomorrow since tomorrow I'll be having guests, eating up a fair bit of my time that day. Everyone who's interested in joining is still free to join as we'll have plenty of time to introduce new gods during this introductory period. After a couple of pages or so any new gods will have to be born into the current running continuity so as to not require retroactive continuity.

I must admit I'm quite excited to start this rp up. I'm quite happy so many have taken an interest and hopefully what I've set up should hopefully make for an entertaining story.

@A Lowly Wretch I have a question about what the gods can create. Specifically I wanted to see if Iarus could/would be able to create a new race (basically the naga/yuan-ti from DND) given his domain doesn't exactly lend him to be much of creation type of god?

@Archangel89 - Generally speaking gods can influence most things but to a much lesser degree than gods who belong to the domain being influenced. For example if Dirka, goddess of magic, tried to turn steel swords into snakes but Ferron didn't want her to Ferron's power would win out since swords are made of steel and not magic.

So in short it's entirely possible for Iarus to make snake people. He'll just have less sway over them directly than some other gods may.

Edit: It also may cost a great deal more effort to create them than it would for gods with relevant domains like animal gods.

Are you sure the entrances can't move around? The whole point of the Lost Lands are that they're hard to pin down.... having it be in a single place seems rather odd to me.
