[center][h1]Synopsis[/h1][/center]

Divinus will be a story about a pantheon of deities, their creations, and the world of Galbar as it is shaped by our collective actions.

Born from the mysterious and infinitely powerful entity known as the Lifeblood, each God represents aspects of creation that grew too influential to be bound by formlessness, and so decided to take matters in their own hand. Some gods will be born in the primordial times (turn 0) and rule over aspects such as fire, oceans, life, shaping the continents, the laws of physics and creating Galbar’s first inhabitants. They are the Primordials. Other gods will arise as mortals start to spread out and grow in intelligence (turn 1), and will rule over aspects such as the music, justice, war and knowledge. They will be known as Conceptionals. 

Though they are all siblings with similar objectives of ‘world building’, each one has their take on how the canvas of creation should be painted, that is why they broke free from the Lifeblood after all, and while deities can cooperate, conflict and intrigue will be no strangers to them. 

Though that what gave them life, could also take it. The more the Lifeblood is used, the more it grows unpredictable and dangerous. This vastness of power, limitless in potential, could also spell doom for Galbar. Will it be used with a careful, guiding hand? Or pushed until the breaking point? Only time will tell.

We would like to give some credits to where they're due and offer a brief history of the RPs that have preceded this one. Divinus existed even on the Oldguild more than 6 years ago, and in various forms it's managed to survive all this time. To any who are interested, here is a list of all the Divinus RPs that have come since then:

[url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/81404-mid-high-casual-divinus-the-deity-roleplay-rebooted/ic]Divinus Mk. I[/url], which was GM'd by [@Kho] and [@Rtron].

[url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/91565-mid-high-casual-divinus-the-deity-roleplay-mk-ii/ic]Divinus Mk. II[/url], which still lives! (Yeah, it still does) Initially Gm'd again by [@Kho], [@Cyclone] and [@Rtron] it has since been turned over to [@Muttonhawk], [@BBeast], and [@Antarctic Termite]. Though it still lives on, as some are still in the process of wrapping it up, it's slowed down to the point that many decided to launch Mk. III a year ago.

There was also a Divinus-inspired foray into the free section that was called [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/171413-godspeed/ic]Godspeed[/url], launched by [@Antarctic Termite]. It holds a special place in my heart. 

And Finally, [url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/176075-divinus-the-god-rp-mk-iii/ic]Divinus Mk. III[/url]. which was Gm'd by [@Cyclone], [@BBeast] and [@Muttonhawk]. Which is also still ongoing, but just like Mk. II, has slowed down considerably and is now being wrapped up. As such, (probably tradition now), we've decided to make this iteration, Mk. IV. It would not be possible, without everyone who helped from Mk. III.

Credits to everyone above; they all contributed greatly to the foundations of this latest attempt. To anybody who participated in any of those RPs we'd love to welcome you back to this new one, but to anybody new to the series, don't worry! This RP inherits the spirit of the past ones as well as some of their mechanics, but this RP will stand alone and you needn't be familiar with the lore or canon of any of those others.

So without further ado, the new GM team is myself, [@Not Fishing] & [@Double Capybara]. We've been writing the OP this time around, and have taken the torch with the blessing of the past GM's. We welcome you to take a look at our doc, to leave feedback and see what we've been cooking up. It has all the more detailed mechanics and need to know information for the rp. It might seem like a lot at first, but all of it is rather easily digestible. 

The OOC will go live when we feel confidant that the time is right, so until then, please post your interest, and character sheets here. And come and chat with us on our discord so we can answer any questions you might have. 

Our hope for this interest check is that we get some new faces, as well as old ones who feel like joining up again. so if you're interested, and even if you aren't, feel free to take a look.
