Equestria Divided: In Nominé - MLP RP

As much as I agree on that, I didn't create the In Nominé. You have to ask Dawnscroll about that, I simply re-started the RP. I can only assume that the Alicorns are also protectors of Gryphons and Minotaurs and such, but look more like ponies because they're more numerous.

And what proof do you have that Zebras come from the Everfree Forest? One Zebra? Statistically, 100% of Zebras we've seen live in the Everfree. Realistically? There is no proof of it. This is a setting created by PoorYorick, and further made into In Nomine with the introduction of Gods.

If you want to point out any perceived "flaws" in something, then go ahead, just don't expect me to be happy about it. As for being rude; we've never been outright rude. We've been harsh, very harsh even, but we've never been rude. Your admit yourself that your God characters were bad, and that's a good thing, but you should also realise that when someone is so bad then it doesn't make people think that you've put a lot of thought behind them. I mean no offense when I say this, but when you see a "mad god with necromancy", the first thing I think of is someone who took the first and coolest thing they could think of. I agree, necromancy is a cool power, but it doesn't have a place here, and you wouldn't have picked it if you had carefully read the introduction.

But you can go ahead and create a Mortal Character. I'll be waiting to see what you cook up. Good luck, and remember what we said: Rip it apart once it's created; is there anything wrong with it?

The Shapeshifting Event

Dude... you beat me to the punch. I had an idea almost exactly like this earlier today, but I didn't have enough thought up about it to post it... Welp, I'll gladly join, although it's late.

I'll probably have a character sheet up sometime tomorrow. Also... can someone tell me how to make those fold-able things? Like what you do with the whole "CS format", "Magic", etc..?

Let me sum it up to you: His Spheres are nowhere near real spheres. Have you looked at a list of Greek Gods like I suggested?
His ability to read minds is awfully close to breaking the "no omniscient" rule which was written in the introduction post. He is no god of Deceit or Lies, so being able to use illusions is unlikely. Same goes for unmatched intellect which, in and of itself, is something that sets off "Gary Stu" alarm bells immediately. He's intelligent, sure! But he's nowhere near the point where he's more intelligent than the rest, and to such a degree that the others envy him because of that. Not only is that just a sign of a bad character creator, but it's also godmodding because you're telling us what our characters feel or think.

So his understanding of physics, something that the gods can openly defy should they so desire, surpasses the other gods' understanding of it? Surpasses the understanding of the one who created said physics? With that ability/statement, you're setting your own character a step above Faust, the Creator. That's a huge no-no and is enough to have you character denied immediately. And again, he's not omniscient. How would he have learned every language there is without ever actually learning them? There is a reason for why Theá's speech is very formal and often gets a bit of an archaic twist. It's because she hasn't been on the Mortal Plane for thousands of years, and she's still trying to adapt.

and just plain worshippers ready to die for their god should someone go against him.

Why are they ready to die for him? Why does he have thousands? Where do they come from? Yes, Theá has roughly four thousand followers, but that comes as a result of her being a hunter, and travelling around the globe. She has interacted with many, many ponies, gryphons and more and gained followers from them. She's the fastest of the Gods and she is able to travel quickly enough to seek out so many and gain their loyalty in only three months.

I don't have much of a problem with his Blessing, except that it's a bit much with "flawless memory".

His purpose... Do you have any idea how quickly he will get Bitch Slapped if someone like, say, Sweeper, Torrential, or Theá finds out that that is his goal? I can't say it's wrong, but I'm just warning you here. Plus, his goals contradict. How can he be worshipped if everyone are mindless machines that work using only cold logic?

Exiled: monks that felt an emotion, they are forced to fight as cannon fodder on the battle ground. They have their mouths stitched closed and their ears are torn off. They fight with crazed bravery to prove themselves worthy to stand by their god in the afterlife he promises them.

Uh. Ouch. That's torture, plain and simple. You're a PROTECTOR of ponies. Do you have any idea how fast Faust would boot you to Oblivion if he did that? Faster than Theá can fly, and she breaks the sound barrier without effort.

Knights: unicorns in heavy bronze armor,

Is he trying to get them killed? Sure, bronze is tougher than copper, but you usually use steel for armour.

As for the rest of the units: Stick to what can be done in Equestria, not Steampunk stuff. Also, this isn't a RTS game with twenty different units pr faction, nor are we making our own factions. We are playing Gods with followers, and those followers are just normal ponies and not mechas or turrets, or crazed monks with mouths sewn shut.

Try again, and please do what Dawn and I have said; Look through a list of greek gods, find something interesting and let that inspire your character, or make a mortal character. But before that, read the introduction posts, read the RP, and read our characters. Then make your own character, and when you look through it again after it's done (but before it's posted) rip it apart; find anything that, in the words of Dawnscroll, "sets off the hackles of everyone in the Rp." In other words, is he realistic? Is he interesting but not overpowered?

The breeze blew through and toyed with what few loose hair had escaped from the braid, picking them up and trying to carry them away. Theá's eyes had closed, her ears splayed backwards as she tried to shut out the shouts from Sweeper. She was offended, she was angry, but why?

Sweeper said I was weak, that I could have done better than what I already did.

She only said what she thought; she misunderstood us. Listen to her; she's apologising, crying even.

Destroying the town wasn't enough for her? A few charred remains is too much to be left after utterly obliterating several square kilometres of terrain.

She is Silver Sweeper, remember? Of all of our siblings, she is the one most likely to say something she doesn't mean, or say something with a meaning entirely different to what we hear! She misunderstood our question, we misunderstood her. She realised her fault when she saw how we were slighted. When a god begs you of something, you do not decline, not even when you are a god yourself.

Theá sighed and let her ears stand up again, having once again lost an argument with herself. She opened her eyes and let her gaze fall from the sky to the horizon. She shook her head. "Do not demean thyself, Sister. While you may not have my destructive powers, you are no less powerful or skilled than I. As for your question, I am all right. It took a lot out of me to regenerate a wing; it will take me but a day to fully recuperate."

While Theá spoke to Sweeper, Winterjet kept her attention on Bright Scroll. "Weirder things than a pegasus with the maw of a wolf? Huh... That's... mildly disturbing, actually." Her eyebrows knitted together as she tried, and failed, not to image what it was like to spend all day in a place where things so weird happened. At the same time she flexed her leg and the ice covering it shattered, removing the reflective surface before she set her hoof back down on the ground.

"You sound like you admire her a great deal, Scrolls," Winterjet continued after a short while. "More so than what one would expect of normal followers." She tilted her head to the side, a few tresses of grey hair falling in front of her eyes. "I mean, either there are the ones that follow them because they're divine but act, well, 'normal'," she spread out her wings, making air quotes with two of the primary feathers. "And then there are the fanatics that grovel and do everything, even the smallest and most ridiculous request, that the alicorn asks for... You seem like neither to me; you're more like a long-time friend, someone who genuinely cares for her."

Theá felt a presence. It was old, and well known. Had she not still been fighting with herself and trying to let her hurt feelings subside, she would have smiled. As it was, she simply spoke up without looking to where she knew he was. "You may be right, Arcon, but you know as well as I do that Mother is never far off. Should she so desire she could be here at this very instant, then give the both of us a spanking for being naughty."

Winterjet snorted, trying not to laugh at the bad, yet still funny, joke... though she had a feeling that Theá was completely serious.

Said alicorn turned around and first looked at Sweeper, noting the teary eyes and how Bright Scrolls was doing his best to soothe her. Her eyes became notably softer at that sight, and with another brief battle in the silence of her own mind, did what she knew was right. "Do not apologise, as it is I who should do so. I lost my temper as I am prone to do." Another sigh, one of many that day, escaped her, and then turned to Arcon, giving him a respectful nod.

"And it's also good to see you, Brother. As to your question, it was a infested with the Cult, not a living—well, living and sane—pony was there. I fought them for a time until I stopped to let my wounds heal. One Smiling Doll made it through my barrier with the help of a hoofful of unicorns and my wing had been cut clean off. The result of that is what you see before you."

Pony, alicorn, Gryphon. Those are your choices. I'd rather we keep dragons out of this alltogether.

Equestria Divided: In Nominé - MLP RP

Honestly? No. I skimmed through it and, quite frankly, I'd never let anything like that pass...

Said Mortal character would then be a follower, otherwise there's no reason for you to have that one mortal character. So if you want to actually do "evil" stuff, go with a mortal character only.

Equestria Divided: In Nominé - MLP RP

Mortal of any allignment you want (just keep it reasonable. We don't want madmen running about. He can be completely cold and careless if you want, but a madman isn't fun or interesting to interact with), or a God that is, inherently, good.

You can choose between those two. Other "beings of power" do not exist.
