A tip for others: I determined my population by estimating by nation's size (By comparing it with RL nations) and multiplying it with my population density, which is usually between 50-90 people/sq.mile (http://www222.pair.com/sjohn/blueroom/demog.htm). Might help others with getting their numbers right.
WIP that I'll add onto with edits.

This sounds cool. I'm thinking of making a bohemian-themed kingdom.
Looks interesting. Are there aliens involved, or is this a human thing?
Hm, I wonder if we'd have gotten more joiners if I had made an interest check first. Well, I'll start it sometime in the next few days, so you guys don't have to wait too long/

Name: Aria-A'Taszch, The Eightfold Lord, the Infinite Spider, The Vermin KingAspect: Decay, Sickness, Vermin and Healing. He is rot and mildew and blight and corrosion, and is associated with vermin and their predators. But at the same time, he is their opposite. He can hold back plagues and epidemics, he can keep crops stored in granaries from going off and free of rats and pests. He is a patron of the wilds and of doctors and farmers.Personality: Aria-A'Taszch is a pensive god, slow to act and first to think a problem over as much as he can. Every action is measured and considered carefully before he carries it out. He looks down on people who act with haste and without thought, and has much more respect for those who think through their deeds first. He considers the sicknesses and blights he inflicts as necessary to keep societies advancing, to prevent unneeded decadence and complacency.Avatar: To mortals, he appears as thisTo his fellow deities, he is a great rotting spider, the increases in size, number of eyes and legs the more he is looked at.


How pretty. You're in.

Edit: Added the map grid we'll use.
That's perfect. I've added you to The List.

I'll put up the map we'll use once I find an image uploading site that I can actually use.
As an example, here's my CS:

Name: Falke

Aspect: The domains of Falke are justice, duty, and the creatures of the sky. He is also associated with wind and mountains. He is the enemy of oath breakers everywhere. Though Falke is the embodiment of Justice, he is not strictly speaking "good", as his zealous pursuit of justice is devoid of mercy or compassion. He is the patron of those who uphold the law.

Personality: Falke is distant and socialises little. This is in part due to his excessive pride, bordering on arrogance: He views himself as the greatest and most important of gods. He is without humor, and cannot stand to be mocked.

Avatar: Falke is known to take two forms among those mortal and immortal: A great hawk beyond any other, that darkens the sky when it appears, and scours the land for those who are false; And as an old man, a cloak hiding all his face save for his shining diamond-like eyes, and carrying a sword.

I subscribed and I want to work in this, this looks like the shit man. But I do have to ask, are we following those exact rules, powers, and point system and if not then what sort of powers are we allowed?


We'll follow the rules as closely as we can, though some of the exact powers will be modified for convenience (For example, shape land and shape climate will be merged as one). I'll add in the rules and the map when I've seen how many people join up.


"The world is blanketed in darkness. You exist, that much is certain, but your senses can tell you nothing. There is only the shadows.

Suddenly, after aeons beyond counting, everything changes: The sun rises at last, awakened from its slumber, and floats above the world, illuminating all. You see yourself, your shape, your thoughts... and your powers, as, you now realize, you are a god. As the sun ascends to its perch on the otherworldly Sky Tower, rising from a vast ocean, it disappears again, before emerging again. Where there was no time, suddenly the wheels of history begin turning. This world is your playground: Yours to shape... And yours to seize."

As you can probably surmise by the title and that intro, this is an RP where we each play as a god, and shape the world from its very beginning. We'll be using a modified version of this:

Reference Manual

If you're unsure, you can read through that short guide for a basic idea of what we're going to do here. Depending on the amount of activity, I may or may not look for a co-GM.

The application sheets should contain the following elements, though you are of course free to add other fluff. I retain the right to add stuff to this as their need becomes apparent.

Name: Your deities name(s). You can add titles here if you're into that stuff.
Aspect: Describe your god's area of influence. You can have several, though try to keep them related to each other, to leave stuff for other players.
Personality: Explain how your god acts and thinks.
Avatar: What form(s) does your god prefer to appear as?
