These Gods were from different origins and ruled different lands, and they each respected each other's claims for territory. The Gods used their might to administer justice and ensure tranquility over the people of Earth, in return for continued sacrifice and belief of the Earthly mortals, as their beliefs were the source of power for these Gods. These Gods ruled undisputed over the Earth for many years, but times did change. They found people were moving away from their religion and their lands of worship. The Gods realized that their power was dwindling. They would have to turn to a different way of connecting with the human world. Soon, an idea came to their minds. That was the origin of the Communicator Program. Each major God of every pantheon would choose a Communicator, a human person, to imbue a fraction of their powers into. These humans, young adults fresh out of their final level of schooling, would represent these Gods in the world, able to infiltrate the ranks of the mortals easier than the Gods themselves and continue the God's quest with their new human aids. The Gods then quickly went about setting their plan to action. First, they seized the mythical island of Avalon, a place no human or beast could simply wander upon, and designated it as the Communicator Headquarters, the place where the Gods would teach the Communicators their powers and limits, while also giving them a safe place to rest and a home base, so to speak. Then, the Gods appeared to their chosen mortals across the globe in a dream, telling them of this role, and then, transporting them to Avalon to train. These Communicators would have a heavy task before them, but a future of being a champion of the globe and protector from evil awaited these young warriors. That is, if they don't get them first. [hr][hr] The pantheons listed below are the ones that will be used for this RP. Please feel free to reserve any of the Gods/Goddesses/other creatures listed below. If you don't see a God/Goddess, don't assume it's not usable! It's likely that I haven't thought of it or didn't think it would be requested. Just ask me and I'll be more than welcome to open it up! [color=ed1c24][b]Red[/b] -- Reserved![/color] [color=39b54a][b]Green[/b] -- Complete![/color] [hider=Greek/Roman] The Ancient Greek gods presided over the lands of Greece, their stunning tales influencing people around the world, even into modern times, with their Gods even chiseled into the religion of the Romans. They championed the classical world in the past, but have fallen out of favor in modern times, reduced to historical content in textbooks and artistic references.

Janus, God of Beginnings and Ends [OPEN] [b][color=ed1c24]Laverna, God of Cheats[/color][/b] [@Yamet] [b][color=ed1c24]Cupid[/color][/b] [@The One] [/hider] [hider=Norse] The bitter lands of the north were championed by Vikings, raiders and explorers, steely warriors at heart. They were empowered by the Norse gods, a pantheon of fierce gods that protected all 9 realms of the cosmos. They, too, fell out of favor in modern times, becoming the lore of action movies and superhero flicks, watered down by the entertainment industries. Ymir, the First Being [Open] [b][color=ed1c24]Odin, the Allfather[/color][/b] [@Sanity43217] Thor, the God of Lightning [OPEN] [b][color=ed1c24]Tyr, the Hero[/color][/b] [@Lonewolf685] Loki, the God of Trickery [Open] Hel, the Goddess of the Underworld [Open] Heimdall, the Protector of Asgard [Open] Freya, the Valkyrie [Open] [b][color=39b54a]Fenrir, the Wolf[/color][/b] [@ShepherdOfHope] [b][color=ed1c24]Jormungandr, the World Serpent[/color][/b] [@Kuroakuma] [/hider] [hider=Egyptian] The Egyptians were the greatest civilization of the Bronze age, and the Egyptian gods indeed held great influence over the world for many years, creating knowledge to be passed on through the eras to today, but as Egypt lost power, so did the Gods of Egypt, soon becoming an afterthought. [b][color=ed1c24]Amun, the Creator[/color][/b] [@Scribe of Thoth] Ra, the Sun God [Open] Ma'at, the Goddess of Order [Open] Osiris, the Dead God [Open] Isis, the Goddess of Magic [Open] Horus, the Avenger [Open] [b][color=ed1c24]Set, the Antagonist[/color][/b] [@ouTland01] Anubis, the God of Embalming [Open] [b][color=ed1c24]Thoth, the Record-Keeper[/color][/b] [@Mistress Dizzy] Bastet, the Goddess of Felines [Open] [/hider] [hider=Shinto] The Shinto religion of Japan was blossomed and, while significantly weakened, still holds pockets of believers in the archipelago today. The Shinto religion focuses on the tales of Kami, extraordinary spirits that represented forces of nature. While it hasn't died as the others have, the Shinto religion never quite reached the same peak that the others did, and as such, is looking for a comeback.

These Gods were especially focused in the Ireland-Wales-Scotland area, where their presence was strongest. The Dagda, the Father God [Open] [b][color=39b54a]Cernunnos, the Horned One[/color][/b] [@Whirligig] The Morrigan, the Mysterious Goddess of War [Open] Brigid, the Goddess of Healing [Open] Lugh, the Master of Skills (and Sun God) [Open] [/hider] [hider=Mayan] The Mayan culture was one separated from the rest of the world, but it still grew to be one that was brilliant and unique. Although much of it has been lost to memory, the Mayan pantheon is ready for a comeback to the forefront of the world.
