I'd rather build something up together, just so that we balance things out together.

Are you going to want to roleplay as the gods? Or would you rather create gods, and then roleplay as the people in the world they create? Or a combination thereof?

It'd be fascinating to have a god or gods that get mixed into the general affairs of mortals. Just a god that puts on a human skin and wanders around and joins in on adventures. For some purpose, of course, but still an interesting concept.
