Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Cyclone

Meh, not sure. As I say, working on an assignment for Sunday at the moment, and two more after that. If you ever do Law, you'd understand the level of 'I eat Law. I sleep Law. I walk Law. I poop Law. Wherever I go, I see Law. Slowly, but surely, I am transforming. Into a textbook. It's called Law.'

I still need to finish re-writing the Game Mechanics, and I don't want to rush it.

I will, however, try to get an Interest Check up sometime this week. Maybe even tomorrow if I feel I've worked well enough to reward you miserable wretches. Don't hold your breath though.

I must admit, it is heavily influenced by the god Janus in Smite.

But I see where you're coming from.

I guess I will go with my God of War. I guess my main problem would be with coming up with a name for him...

@Kangutso

Hmm, just read up on Janus. Seems very interesting. I'd say you're looking more towards a god of Change (Time) there, or Change (Space). It could also be Creation (Time), Creation (Space), Creation (Genesis).

On Cyclone's point, tell us a bit more about what this god's personality will be likes, his/her abilities and maybe their name. That might help narrow it down more

Maybe his domain would be Creation, and his portfolio would be space? For simplicity's sake.

Honestly, the more i think about it, the more I realize that he would be just as potentially powerful as Vowzra would be...

Would it be better for me to just go with God of War(Honor)?

@Kangutso

I do think that space is in fact a portfolio, and I do think it goes under the domain of creation - but the real issue is actually understanding what kind of power 'space' gives.
I struggled to come to grips with the creation domain, and the portfolio of time is one that can easily become over-powered or, if you're paranoid of being OP, under-powered. As Vowzra was initially a god of Space (Time) (though strictly speaking that makes no sense) I can tell you that space, generally, is a difficult thing to come to grips with. I'm personally keeping away from it, and I'd advise anyone wishing to create a god to do likewise.

I had another character, in a Bleach RP, whose power was centred around Spacetime, and all it really came down to was his ability to open portals. I have no idea what else you could actually do with 'space' or 'time'.

I have no issue with you choosing to be a creation god, but the whole space thing, I can confidently tell you, will be a nightmare. Do it if you feel you're up to it, but otherwise you might want something that is less ambiguous. That's my 50 cents.

I've been thinking about it and don't you guys think Astarte may be a bit OP in terms of what she can achieve? Magic has a way of being used in all kinds of things. Or maybe we could make sure the Magic Goddess keeps her ultimate versatility but her abilities and creations aren't as refined or resistant as other, more specialized Gods?

@Frettzo

I don't think she is, Magic is generic, she is more powerful than a normal god when it comes to granting magic etc. and her magical gifts to creations, plus her personal abilities, would be greater than those of a normal god. She is able to grant magic for no Might whereas another would have to use Might. But it's generic and another god could nullify the inherent advantage of her magic by using their own Might.
It's the portfolio where a god's power is truly at a peak and can be said to be 'OP', but since it's managed by the game mechanics, it's manageable. I mean, Vowzra is a god of Creation - that could easily be said to be OP, but it doesn't really manifest like that when it comes down to it.
You also need to remember that scientific advancement (unless it is combined with magic) can act as a bit of a neautraliser on magic. So I'd say don't worry too much xP

<Snipped quote by Frettzo>

She never struck me as being overly powerful or influential in the last RP, but maybe that was because she kept mostly to herself.

Magic really isn't much broader than change or chaos.

On that topic, I'm still wondering if change should be my domain and air the portfolio, or vice-versa. Any opinions?

@Cyclone

Definitely Change, that gives you more to play with. If not, go with Weather. Air is seems more like a portfolio overall, it's quite specific - unless you want to have portfolios like 'Oxygen' 'Poison Gas' 'Helium' etc. which I'd say an air portfolio covers anyway.

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Kangutso Oh yes, you did indeed. Sorry, it was 5 in the morning when I responded and I had been awake for a good 20 or so hours xD

Hmm, a god of Travel (Portals) maybe?
Or perhaps Magic (Portals)

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Kangutso A new guy wants in before the interest check is even up xDD
Unless interest is very low, I doubt any player will have more than one god character, so if you are interested, you'll have to choose between the two idea you have or somehow combine them.

Also, I'd be interested in seeing your writing skill, or even better, have anyone you know from this RP vouch for you.

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Rtron Hmmm, this 'good'ing can't be good.

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Cyclone I'd say go for either Cyrus, Castus or Heru. Though, for one reason or another, I lean mostly towards Heru.
ZOROASTRAAAAAA:

Hider

xD what makes Napoleon even greater IS his plebeian roots (though, strictly speaking, he was Corsican aristocracy)
I'm developing the idea and think it will be more of a family story rather than one single character. The House of Eskandar through the ages.
Will go nicely with the Wrolfins when/if they comes along. And Zerabil's lineage (we didn't get to it, but Zerabil's love interest is a stunning redhead >.> Seihdhara she's called)

Mid/High Casual - Divinus: The Deity Roleplay (Rebooted)

@Rtron Meh, Zerabil was a hero from the start, his creation story will pretty much be the same as the last two iterations, so he'll still be a hero - and things can develop there. Vowzra's Victors will probably come about in a very different manner. But Eskandar will have nothing going for him from the divine end. All he's going to have is wit, guts and endless ambition

<Snipped quote by Kho>

Pfft, mai hero gon be b3tter

:P

Edit: Heroes! I have two planned already!

@Cyclone

xPPP Eskandar will be a Man. Literally, a mortal man, not even a hero.
