Crucible of Gods - A New Divine RP

Anak'thas

Anak’thas moved through the storm-scarred realm alone. The screeching wind was assailing him from all sides. The ground beneath him had ceased obeying whatever laws of nature governed here. Mountains folded into each other, as stone trees curved back into roots. For the two days Anak’thas kept himself going with the promise of his own realm. Whenever he saw the stone trees he did not see the blight it was but the lush, green forests it could be. Whenever he walked over the cracked, rocky ground he saw tranquil hills covered with fields. So he kept going, until finally, he reached the node. It was a simple thing, akin to the first node where they were all born.

The lantern creature reached out and put his hand on the stone. In an instant the howling wind ceased. Rock and stone began to crack and crumble around him as reality took back control of the world. Through the node and with his will he wrangled the impossible mountains into submission. All bowed for Anak’thas. When he was finally done sundering the blight of the realm, he began replacing it. He forged gentle mountains up in the north, from which life-giving rivers flowed down into the verdant plains below. The stone trees had crumbled and formed the seeds for the living forests that dotted the whole area. A singular vale ran towards the node he came from, which would guide the mortals here.

Finally Anak’thas took off his hand and realized that was not a god, not truly, until now. Ever since his birth he had thought about shaping the world by his desire. To do so, in reality, was a completely different feeling though. He felt powerful like he had never felt before, not even when he witnessed Benea summon the Hydra. No, this was something else. This feeling, it demanded contemplation. With a single motion from his hand Anak’thas raised a pedestal-like throne and rested his lantern atop of it.

Days passed by without recognition to the second-born god of order. It felt like he was in a slumber as he examined the memories of the power that had coursed through him. A slumber that he was raised from the second the first of the mortals appeared before him. Slowly they made their way up the hill Anak’thas had made around the node. None of them spoke. They just knelt. But the Lantern-God felt something brewing in him as they whispered their prayers to him. Their faith felt like a sprouting seed within him. A seed – he knew – that would grow into the creating power of akin to that of the nodes.

“My subjects!” He bellowed as he raised up from his throne. “You’ve come to me. Know that I am honored by your faith. I can feel it within me. As promised, I give you a verdant land where prosperity is everywhere to be found. All I ask is your faith.” He stepped towards the first few of his new followers.

“Rise.” He then said. The human with a walking stick, no doubt the first of many boons provided by the Lantern-God, rose up slowly and carefully. “For your benediction I give my blessing.” With two fingers he touched the man’s head and filled it with the skill and knowledge of how to work the land. It was foundational knowledge at best, but knowledge that would get them started either way. The blessing spread, from the man to those he was growing to love along the way. Soon it found its way throughout his faithful followers.

Through the direction of Anak’thas his followers began to stack loose rocks and dig up clay to make their houses around his throne. They were ugly things, with little refinement or beauty to them. The Lantern-God still smiled. These buildings would be the first houses of his worship. The people of his land did not rest there, however. They took seeds from berries and plants that they found in the beautiful realm and began to plant them in tilted fields around the node-hill. The first fields were being sown already.

---

Anak’thas wanted more though. There was something underneath the power of the nodes. Something more, waiting to well up like a flooding river. But that power was blocked by stones of oblivion. In the end the conclusion was a simple one: he would have to claim more land. He summoned a man, young of body, and gave him a simple command. Make way for Benea’s chosen realm and relay his message: Anak’thas shall claim further eastwards. For the good of his followers.

With that task done Anak’thas set forth for the second node that would be his.

summary

Anak’thas goes through a windblown hellscape to claim node 13. When he does he feels such a rush of power that he decides to sit down for a few days. Finally mortal followers come and begin worshipping him. He can feel this faith in him as a seed of power. In return for their faith he gives them the blessing of knowledge. Soon Anak’thas’ followers are tilting fields and building houses.

However the god grows a bit more greedy and wants another node. He sends a messenger out towards Benea to tell her that he will go and claim node 14

She remembers yelling, screaming, and hiding in a box. Or that’s how much her psychotherapist managed to get out of her before she quit. After that her earliest memory is left with her nanny at the age of 8, waving a plane goodbye on which her father doubtlessly was on. He always came back though. No matter where he want, he always came back to her. Her years as a child were spent with an odd sense of freedom. Her father was gone often, though he made every effort to call and video-chat with her whenever he could. Sometimes she screwed up, like those few times she was becoming a bully, but he never got mad at her. He only ever asked her why and often time she came to the conclusion herself that she was messing up. But whenever she achieved something, be it standing up to a bully herself or scoring high grades, he beamed with pride. As she grew older though, Isabel began to realize what her father did for work. At the age of 17, it began to really affect her. She wrestled with what she believed her father was doing. For the first time in her entire life, when he came she wasn’t at the airport waiting for him. For nearly the entire period he was home – which was generally a month – she tried to avoid him. Until he finally confronted her himself. They had a heart-to-heart that lasted until the morning. She yelled, she cried, she yelled more, and then as the sun came up she finally hugged him. After that Isabel's outlook on life changed. She graduated at the top of her class and went on a stellar academic career that ended with her graduating from law school and passing the bar exam. At the company that hired her, she shot up the ladder through a cutthroat game of office politics and a diligent work ethic. While she did continue her hard work, she did begin to delve into the mysterious life her father had. He was gone often, to places she could guess but he could never confirm. He talked about his family more and more. She started snooping around and found out that her father’s name was an ancient alias fabricated years ago. That evening her father knocked on her door. He explained that things with his family are difficult at the best of times. In time he would introduce her to his relatives. Until that time he wanted her to learn a bit about them. To do so he gave her a book on Greek myths. Isabel took it as a metaphor for how screwed up his family ties must be. It only made her want to meet his – and her – family. So the next year, when they had their annual reunion, she figured out it would be held in Seattle. She took a sabbatical from work and jumped on the first plane that went to the city. ██████████████████████ 𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬   𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬 ⌜ α м в ι т ι σ и ѕ ⌟ ⬩ Secretly Isabel just wants a family. She wants uncles and nieces and people that she could always depend on. Though up until only a year ago that was at most a fantasy. Now it could be a reality. Beyond that she wants a family she made herself. Though publicly she’ll claim that she wants to become a partner at the law firm she works at and work on a case that will immortalize her. ⌜ f є α я ѕ ⌟ ⬩ Isabel has never had a big family, so she fears losing the only family she has.

^{Ares’ physical power increases the more intense a situation he finds himself in. The intensity can come from himself but also from people close around him. War provides an easy example of when the intensity of a situation reaches a peak. In this state, Ares is an indomitable mortal. His strength borders on the superhuman as he shrugs off pain that would incapacitate most others. The drawback of this is that his power only kicks in when a situation is already intense. A the start of any battle he is his own, normal self still.}

Ares personified the aspects of the warrior: courage, honor, glory, and strength but also wrath, terror, strife, and pain. He was worshipped most in the city-state of Sparta, known for its heroic defense at Thermopylae. In Asia Minor, many city-states also worshipped him as the protector. In myth he can often be found fighting for the side that will eventually face defeat. The most prominent example is when he fought at the side of the Trojans. However, it does show that Ares - god of war and glory - strives not necessarily towards victory. Unlike his sister, Athena. He fights for his own reasons. Sometimes he fights to bring strife and pain. At Troy though, he fought for his love: Aphrodite. And he fought so hard that the very gods on the side of Achaeans had to take him out of the battle. ██████████████████████ 𝐁 𝐢 𝐨 𝐠 𝐫 𝐚 𝐩 𝐡 𝐲   𝐁 𝐢 𝐨 𝐠 𝐫 𝐚 𝐩 𝐡 𝐲 ⌜ м σ я т α ℓ ℓ ι f є ⌟ ⚔ Ares was a warrior. His purpose – from birth – was to fight anything in his way. The Fall was one of the few things he couldn’t fight though. No matter how much he trashed and tried to cling to his own divinity, he felt it fleeting between his fingers. Forever lost. When he opened his eyes again he found himself on earth, amongst the mortals. He had walked her before. His temper hadn’t been quenched. So he picked himself up and started looking for that which he craved most: war. And so he marched. Again and again and again. He abandoned his family. He saw no need for them and he reckoned, now that they had fallen, they saw no need for him either. Of course, he broke away from the burning embrace of battle every year to feed on divine Ambrosia, but he rarely lingered to feast. Often times he only showed up in the dead of night to steal a sip and vanish again. No, his true purpose on this world was to wage battle and for centuries that is exactly what he did. To his delight, he saw that the humans had as much an appetite for ending the lives of others as he had in ancient times. The bloodlust of mortalkind was not so easily sated. Century after century sharper blades and greater engines of war were introduced to the battlefield. There was always a war going on somewhere in the world. Whenever one place finally made peace, Ares would pack up that very night and find his next battlefield. One could say he is a traveler. He most certainly has fought amongst the armies of the world. But he never wandered the world to see it. But after fifteen centuries of bathing in blood, even the god of war grew tired of it. The blazing fire that ushered him ever further began to falter and for the first time in his life Ares decided to stay somewhere. Be it fate or luck, he found himself that way after the battle of Tenochtitlan. Where he met the most sinful of goddesses. Through her, Ares realized that war should be celebrated in its aftermath. For the next handful of centuries, Ares waged war and then drank deeply from the cups of victory afterward. He had a callous disregard for the dead and dying. War and celebration was the only thing that counted, and the latter was made ever more appetizing through a goddess that fed his sins. Until that fateful week in Madrid. For a time it was as if Ares had vanished from the surface of the earth. Some could whisper they saw him still at the World Tree every year, stealing a sip of Ambrosia. But he never spoke to a fellow divine. That is, until he boarded a plane heading for Seattle from Ben Gurion Airport with a smile on his face. ██████████████████████ 𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬   𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬 ⌜ α м в ι т ι σ и ѕ ⌟ ⚔ For the longest time Ares would’ve wanted nothing more than just to wage endless war. To do what he was quite literally born to do. However, he now feels an almost desperate need to change. So now he does not search for war but for his family. He wishes to reconnect with his family and become the man he hopes his loved ones wish he would become. ⌜ f є α я ѕ ⌟ ⚔ Death has taken a front seat when it comes to his life. In the millennia past it didn’t really bother him. But now he has people that he could leave behind. And the god of war has been to many funerals in his life.

<sup>The Restless Dead often come to her on earth as well. Hel has the ability to talk to the ghosts of the recently departed. Oftentimes this is to hear some last words, offer comfort about the next world, or enact a final wish.

However, not all Restless Dead are benign in spirit. Some return as Draugr, undead who desire to harm the living. Hel first saw it as her duty to dispatch them with great prejudice. Recently, however, she found a way to bind a Draugr to a totem and thus to her will.</sup>

Anak'thas

“I shall.” Anakt’thas said to Benea’s offer. In his mind, the central node would serve as a meeting place for the gods shaped in the form of a giant temple complex. But here around the node they would join again. For now, though, Benea’s creation would protect it until it could rightfully be claimed.

There were other gods joining them now. One absolute savage, with whom Anak’thas would feel no pleasure to work with. At least Monica was wise enough to relent to Benea. He was quickly growing tired of the bunch though. Half of them would be obstacles at the very least.

The mote-as-eye of his turned towards the recently awakened humans. “Hear me now mortals.” He shouted towards them. “The world beyond this valley is a wretched land indeed. But me and my kin-“ he motioned specifically at Benea, “will do everything in our power to tame those lands and make them prosperous. I promise you these verdant realms in exchange for naught but your faith.”

With his grand declaration done he again turned towards Benea. “While your company would no doubt be a delight, I am afraid that duty calls first.” He then leaned in closer to whisper: “Not all our siblings will offer the same life-giving lands, and these mortals will no doubt become the tools of our order. We must protect them.” With that said, he started walking – at the pace of a god at least – towards the north-eastern node.

Summary

Anak’thas envisions what Node 18 should look like, then grimaces at how his other siblings are turning out. He soon realizes that they should move but first makes a declaration to the humans who woke up. He offers them a verdant realm up north in exchange for their faith. After that he explains to Benea that duty calls and they must move because he suspects not all of his siblings will give blessed realms to the mortals. And the mortals must survive because they will be their tools. After that he leaves for the next node.

She remembers yelling, screaming, and hiding in a box. Or that’s how much her psychotherapist managed to get out of her before she quit. After that her earliest memory is left with her nanny at the age of 8, waving a plane goodbye on which her father doubtlessly was on. He always came back though. No matter where he want, he always came back to her. Her years as a child were spent with an odd sense of freedom. Her father was gone often, though he made every effort to call and video-chat with her whenever he could. Sometimes she screwed up, like those few times she was becoming a bully, but he never got mad at her. He only ever asked her why and often time she came to the conclusion herself that she was messing up. But whenever she achieved something, be it standing up to a bully herself or scoring high grades, he beamed with pride. As she grew older though, Isabel began to realize what her father did for work. At the age of 17, it began to really affect her. She wrestled with what she believed her father was doing. For the first time in her entire life, when he came she wasn’t at the airport waiting for him. For nearly the entire period he was home – which was generally a month – she tried to avoid him. Until he finally confronted her himself. They had a heart-to-heart that lasted until the morning. She yelled, she cried, she yelled more, and then as the sun came up she finally hugged him. After that Isabel's outlook on life changed. She graduated at the top of her class and went on a stellar academic career that ended with her graduating from law school and passing the bar exam. At the company that hired her, she shot up the ladder through a cutthroat game of office politics and a diligent work ethic. While she did continue her hard work, she did begin to delve into the mysterious life her father had. He was gone often, to places she could guess but he could never confirm. He talked about his family more and more. She started snooping around and found out that her father’s name was an ancient alias fabricated years ago. That evening her father knocked on her door. He explained that things with his family are difficult at the best of times. In time he would introduce her to his relatives. Until that time he wanted her to learn a bit about them. To do so he gave her a book on Greek myths. Isabel took it as a metaphor for how screwed up his family ties must be. It only made her want to meet his – and her – family. So the next year, when they had their annual reunion, she figured out it would be held in Seattle. She took a sabbatical from work and jumped on the first plane that went to the city. ██████████████████████ 𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬   𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬 ⌜ α м в ι т ι σ и ѕ ⌟ ⬩ Secretly Isabel just wants a family.

Beyond that she wants a family she made herself. Though publicly she’ll claim that she wants to become a partner at the law firm she works at and work on a case that will immortalize her. ⌜ f є α я ѕ ⌟ ⬩ Isabel has never had a big family, so she fears losing the only family she has.

Anak'thas

Anak’thas didn’t let his hand linger on Peninal’s head for long. The knowledge coursed through him for but a second before his divine mind placed it all neatly down as a framework that was already growing in his mind. His eye of light strayed towards the globe sitting on a nearby stone pedestal. With the knowledge of his fallen progenitor, Anak’thas knew what was shown to him. With his staff, he began to move across the little points that marked the nodes. Each place was already given a purpose. Farms, libraries, schools, fortresses, watchtowers. Like a living organism his grand design was already spreading across the world in his mind.

“The world is but a barren wasteland.” He said out loud as his singular, light eye stayed focused on the representation of the world. “We will need time to rebuild it before the coming doom.” Then he turned to face his siblings, specifically looking at the horned entity who insulted perhaps the only one of his siblings who spoke an ounce of sense today. “So we do not have the luxury to wait. We should act, and fast.” Then the gaze of his singular mote of light moved towards Monica. “Forgive me sister but compassion alone will not be enough to stave off certain doom. This world needs order and stability.”

His form of wispy robes moved beside the sister who spoke second. “I – Anak’thas – support you sister. Our knowledge and wisdom set us apart from our siblings. Together we will save this world. I am sure of this.”

Summary

Anak'thas touches Peninal's forehead to gain the knowledge, then moves towards the globe sitting on the pedestal. In his mind, he already knows how the whole world will look. He then moves to speak against Vatarr and Monica. After which he sides with Benea, calling her wise and knowledgeable.

<sup>The Restless Dead often come to her on earth as well. Hel has the ability to talk to the ghosts of the recently departed. Oftentimes this is to hear some last words, offer comfort about the next world, or enact a final wish.

However, not all Restless Dead are benign in spirit. Some return as Draugr, undead who desire to harm the living. Hel first saw it as her duty to dispatch them with great prejudice. Recently, however, she found a way to bind a Draugr to a totem and thus to her will.</sup>

Ares personified the aspects of the warrior: courage, honor, glory, and strength but also wrath, terror, strife, and pain. He was worshipped most in the city-state of Sparta, known for its heroic defense at Thermopylae. In Asia Minor, many city-states also worshipped him as the protector. In myth he can often be found fighting for the side that will eventually face defeat. The most prominent example is when he fought at the side of the Trojans. However, it does show that Ares - god of war and glory - strives not necessarily towards victory. Unlike his sister, Athena. He fights for his own reasons. Sometimes he fights to bring strife and pain. At Troy though, he fought for his love: Aphrodite. And he fought so hard that the very gods on the side of Achaeans had to take him out of the battle. ██████████████████████ 𝐁 𝐢 𝐨 𝐠 𝐫 𝐚 𝐩 𝐡 𝐲   𝐁 𝐢 𝐨 𝐠 𝐫 𝐚 𝐩 𝐡 𝐲 ⌜ м σ я т α ℓ ℓ ι f є ⌟ ⚔ Ares was a warrior. His purpose – from birth – was to fight anything in his way. The Fall was one of the few things he couldn’t fight though. No matter how much he trashed and tried to cling to his own divinity, he felt it fleeting between his fingers. Forever lost. When he opened his eyes again he found himself on earth, amongst the mortals. He had walked her before. His temper hadn’t been quenched. So he picked himself up and started looking for that which he craved most: war. And so he marched. Again and again and again. He abandoned his family. He saw no need for them and he reckoned, now that they had fallen, they saw no need for him either. Of course, he broke away from the burning embrace of battle every year to feed on divine Ambrosia, but he rarely lingered to feast. Often times he only showed up in the dead of night to steal a sip and vanish again. No, his true purpose on this world was to wage battle and for centuries that is exactly what he did. To his delight, he saw that the humans had as much an appetite for ending the lives of others as he had in ancient times. The bloodlust of mortalkind was not so easily sated. Century after century sharper blades and greater engines of war were introduced to the battlefield. There was always a war going on somewhere in the world. Whenever one place finally made peace, Ares would pack up that very night and find his next battlefield. One could say he is a traveler. He most certainly has fought amongst the armies of the world. But he never wandered the world to see it. But after fifteen centuries of bathing in blood, even the god of war grew tired of it. The blazing fire that ushered him ever further began to falter and for the first time in his life Ares decided to stay somewhere. Be it fate or luck, he found himself that way after the battle of Tenochtitlan. Where he met the most sinful of goddesses. Through her, Ares realized that war should be celebrated in its aftermath. For the next handful of centuries, Ares waged war and then drank deeply from the cups of victory afterward. He had a callous disregard for the dead and dying. War and celebration was the only thing that counted, and the latter was made ever more appetizing through a goddess that fed his sins. Until that fateful week in Madrid. For a time it was as if Ares had vanished from the surface of the earth. Some could whisper they saw him still at the World Tree every year, stealing a sip of Ambrosia. But he never spoke to a fellow divine. That is, until he boarded a plane heading for Seattle from Ben Gurion Airport with a smile on his face. ██████████████████████ 𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬   𝐌 𝐨 𝐭 𝐢 𝐯 𝐚 𝐭 𝐢 𝐨 𝐧 𝐬 ⌜ α м в ι т ι σ и ѕ ⌟ ⚔ For the longest time Ares would’ve wanted nothing more than just to wage endless war. To do what he was quite literally born to do. However, he now feels an almost desperate need to change. So now he does not search for war but for his family. He wishes to reconnect with his family and become the man he hopes his loved ones wish he would become. ⌜ f є α я ѕ ⌟ ⚔ Death has taken a front seat when it comes to his life. In the millennia past it didn’t really bother him. But now he has people that he could leave behind. And the god of war has been to many funerals in his life.

Anak'thas

Name:
Anak'thas

Form

At the core of Anak’thas is a brightly lit lantern. It is held by a more humanoid creature. While this figure is still a part of him, wounding it would not kill him. This form - his Aspect of Guiding Light as he calls it – is faceless. Instead of a face, he has a hole with a mote of divine light shining from it. The wispy robes he wears hide the lower section of this form. He leaves no footmarks. Instead, the lowest-hanging robes seemingly float over the ground.

Personality
On the surface, one could say that Anak’thas is a power-hungry control freak. There is, however, nuance to his obsession. While he is obsessed with control, he remains open to the idea that – for now – there are forces outside his control. Instead of absolute subjugation of these forces, he will prefer to initially find a way to incorporate them into his Perfect Order. In essence, he will resort first to control through assimilation. Not subjugation (though of course, when assimilation is not an option subjugation will be). Furthermore, he craves power only to further his Perfect Order, which ultimately comes to the betterment of everyone (or so he chooses to believe).

Will
Will of Perfect Order. Anak’thas believes that only ultimate order can stave off doom and bring true prosperity. But to achieve this ultimate order every object in existence needs to understand and accept its place in this ultimate order. He thus values obedience and duty above all else. Through this obedience and dutifulness, he strives to deliver every measure of prosperity. He does not abhor creativity but believes it is a force that must be closely monitored. For a wrongful but hopeful idea can sunder the prosperous order he strives to create. His true opposite is anarchy and lawlessness.
