Might actually be able to get the Interest Check up today after all

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

@Vec@Kho

I'd like a repeat of what happened in this RP, with Fate and Invictus making a big bang and each god contributing some of their unique magic to influence what comes out.

Like, in my WIP sheet I premptively aaid that Zephyrion created all change when he poured his energy into the universe's creation. (Kho, I assume that's fine?) Similarly, maybe a sun god could create literally all all the stars by manipulating the world's seed in a way that allows the physics for stars to form after our Bg Bang. Just a thought.

@Cyclone

Of course, that's no issue at all. Each god adds an element to the 'Seed of Creation' which, in the end, leads to the emergence of a fully functioning and stable universe, and change is needed in a fully functional and stable universe, as are Stars, Chaos, Time, etc.

<Snipped quote by Cyclone>

I concur, it made a lot of sense. Plus, it prevents any one God or RPer from claiming jurisdiction over the whole universe with "I made it!" Because we ALL influenced the "seed"

Not that Kho would try to pull a power-claim like that, but Vowzra might if everyone else starts to fuck with his chosen timeline, as we inevitably will :p

@Hael

Mess with anything you want, but NOT the Timeline. THE Timeline.

It's w/e with the races really as it's up to you guys. As for the latter, let me explain it. A star is literally a big fat ball of scorching hot plasma, floating in space and only being held together by its own gravity. The Sun is an example of a star. My thoughts on how I would go about introducing these changes to Ull would be to have him pop up into existence right after Vestec and Vowzra. He would then go on creating all the stars in the universe and then ya'll go about creating planets and such. Now, I don't really know if creating stars falls under Vowzra's jurisdiction so that is why I thought to ask here for opinions.

Or I could always go down the previous path and make him a Solar deity. The difference between Stellar and Sollar is in the spiritual sense really. Humans see the Sun as life and a bane of the darkness but see the stars in general as a guide they can use to traverse large distances as well as something to look up to when they want to feel really small and insignificant.

@Vec

You know, I think Vowzra would be up for creating a separate planet which only has one sentient race - Humans. It would be interesting to develop such a planet and protecting it from Vestec's attempts at creating other creatures.
I must ask though, when you say humans, do you mean strictly Homo Sapiens, or would it be possible for other Humans to develop?

As for creating stuff, I'm really not sure how we'll go about it this time. In the last rendition we had all the gods put their energies and will together to create the universe - they basically created the big bang effect. All the stars, galaxies, black holes, planets etc. were created from that effect. If we were to create everything in the universe from scratch it would take a while and a lot of Might, but you guys want to do that, we can go for it.
But just to explain, in the beginning all there would exist is a 'World'. A completely empty world where nothing exists - space, time, the universe as self-contained 'thing', 'plane of existence', or 'dimension', the laws of nature, physics etc. All that doesn't exist, it's not even a 'void' or 'vacuum' in the sense that outer space is a 'vacuum'. What must be created, first and foremost, is the 'universe', time must begin, space as a thing must exist, the laws of nature and physics (default as they exist in our world). That would be Vowzra's job, creating this empty universe. After that, we can start creating galaxies, stars, black holes, planets etc.

OR, instead of having Vowzra creating this empty universe, all the gods can combine their energies and thus create a fully functional, planet-filled, star-filled, galaxy-filled, (lifeless) universe.

It'll be a mixed bag of emotions for my god.

I have also found it difficult to come up with a name for him, so I have to call on that offer, I feel.

@Kangutso

I'd say looking at war god names from the various civilisations in human history may give you some inspiration

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

@Cyclone It sounds a bit complex, not entirely sure how it would function so as to allow life (if it the magic orb?), but I think it will make more sense when it is created
I will have to think out how Vowzra would interact with it - he might even find its very existence dangerous and seek to destroy it completely - yes, I can see it now, a people whose singular purpose is to destroy the holy site binding this unnatural planet together :O

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

And yes, there seems to be a push for developing more than one planet in this coming iteration, so it may be better to develop different species on different planets before the great collision. But again, it's all IC and player preference xD anything beyond Game Mechanics is out of my scope of GM powers

Edit: ninja'd

What are thoughts on that matter, everyone?

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

<Snipped quote by Kho>

I was just curious if we will have Cimex, Uri and the like; Any race other than plain ole Humans. I personally think we should stick to just Humans. Although it might sound boring at first, I think that if we have only one race to play with, it will enable us to be more versatile as to how that race would develop. We could always make another planet and have a different race inhabit it.

@Vec

Hmm, I don't think that's something I can decide - it's more a matter of what happens IC and what players decide on after discussion. I can see the benefits, and it would definitely be interesting to, say, develop different sub-species of human (Homo Garinthus >.>) without Cimex and Uri, or Dyun, interfering.
But as I say, it's all about player preferences and not something I can force as GM

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

@Cyclone Go for it ;)

@Vec Hmm, don't understand the question xD

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

@Kangutso I already like him. Seems like he would be something of a Lawful Good, or some other kind of 'good', character.

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

@Vec Glad you checked in :)
It's looking more and more like we'll be starting before the summer. I'll probably be slow on the posting until summer though, but you guys have stuck around this long, I don't think trying to keep you all active will be too much of a chore xP
