Ok to avoid confusion, this is a redo of another RP by the same name and maker (me).
Because there is a large number of new players the old one got confusing and I'm making this one Invite only to keep things organised.
We'll use the same opening post.
Come one and all.
We'll tell a tale like the mythos of old.
Step in the shoes of the old gods like Thor, Dionysus and Anubis.
Create a world of myth and magic, then create heroes to overcome the impossible challenges set by the gods.
It is the year 0. There is a small town at the shores of the sea, it's inhabitants call it Travels End. After many generations of nomadic tradition they settle down to farm and fish. The future holds many things in store for them: jealous rival cities, vicious sea monsters, festivities and tragedies. But most importantly: Religion.
These people are about to discover their gods. Will these divine beings use their might to help the town grow into a bustling trade city? Or will they torment the humans for their own amusement? Perhaps both.
In this game you'll make 1 god, up to 3 heroes (of other gods) and any number of commoners.
God characters are bound by no rules other than the rule of cool. You choose no powers or skills, you can do whatever seems fitting.
Gods appear as they will and can bend the rules of reality to their whims.
You'll choose a domain like fire, death, war or weather. (anything that follows "The god(dess) of" and isn't too similar to an already present god.
Heroes are mortal champions with superhuman powers. Often they are the bastard children of gods, sometimes they are given their powers by a god as a reward.
These characters might fight monsters, save a town from rampaging bandits, or maybe rage against the gods.
Examples are Hercules, Skjöldr, (first king of Denmark), Moses, etc.
Commoners are just that, normal humans, they have no powers you and I can't have. If you choose not to give them a name they are public domain and any player may control them. You can write a character sheet, but depending on how relevant this person might be it's not mandatory.
Name: By what name are you best known
Titles: Do you have other names and titles?
True name: Only the other gods know and comprehend this name, they won't use it unless shit gets really serious. A mortal hearing the name whispered will likely die as his mind cannot encompass the vastness of your true name. If he survives he might become an Oracle.
Inspiration: A feeling describing the theme and feel of your god, (pictures are ok too)
Appearance: Favored way of appearing to mortals and other gods.
Symbols: What are your holy symbols and signs.
Portfolio: Pick a Domain from the list below, as long as it is within this domain you can do anything.
Alignment: Lawful(Orderly, organised, community)/ Neutral/ Chaotic (Erratic, disorganized, freedom) + Good/Neutral/Evil
Servitars: What are your servants like? Are they demons, angels, sphinxes, vampires, djinies, giants, etc.?
Weapon: If you were to appear holding a weapon, or give a sacred armament to a worthy champion. What would it be?
Animal: Favorite animal.
Followers: Who prays and sacrifices to you?
