Pantheons


Settings


Long ago, these essences came to Earth and helped shape it into what it is today. The Deities of the different polytheist religions remained among the living, their essence hopping from vessel to vessel when the life of the vessel came to an end. As the world grew, evolved, and their existence passed into myth, the Gods began to congregate, to live in the same area of the world. It was close enough to the sea to satisfy the likes of Neptune or Poseidon, but yet close enough to parks and mountains to give the Gods a reminder of a time where the planet was filled with those large expanses of untouched land, or a time when they were worshiped as gods, rather than drawn as caricatures of themselves in comic books.

They chose to live in the area of Seattle, trying to blend in and do their godly work to heal, meddle, cause mischief, and whatever their goal and purpose was. After all these years, humans were still pawns in  their grand scheme, but that did not mean all of them considered humankind as little, disposable, chess pieces. Only a deity has the ability to kill another, but if history has taught the deities one thing, it was that a feud between gods came at high costs, and that for the sake of their secret, feuds had to be avoided and the concerned parties kept far enough apart.


Rules


  • Information from Marvel comics does not apply
  • Game opened to any gender and orientation
  • IC posts should have at least 2 paragraphs/200 words. No one-liners or one-paragraphers.
  • Follow the Oath of the Drake


    Deities


  • For the time being, only 4 groups of gods are available, more can be added if requested
  • The deities are essences that take over a mortal's body for a normal life span, at any point in the mortal's life. Character Age must however comply with the site's rules.
  • When the essence takes over, the human is erased, its soul sent to the afterlife or is destroyed, depending on the deity's nature
  • When the essence leaves a body, it either falls into a coma due to the absence of a consciousness (soul or essence) or it dies
  • In case of a coma, another deity's essence can come and take over
  • Vessel hopping is frowned upon, it is considered distasteful to change bodies for no valid reason other than incurable illness/age/imminent death
  • Should the vessel meet an untimely death (accident), the essence simply escapes to find another suitable vessel
  • Male deities can pick female vessels, and vice-versa. Don't feel limited in your choice by the original gender of the god.
  • The Deity's relationship (family, friends, enemies, lovers) existed in the past. While the family ties remain, engagements such as marriage my be ignored/broken. 2000 years is a long time to stay married...

    Character Sheets


  • Provide a picture of your character, if possible 150px by 200px
  • A paragraph is considered to be at least 6 complete sentences long
  • Write outside the bold codes, after the /b, do not alter the format
  • Use the proper character sheet. They are color-coded for each deity group
  • Send the sheet to Aysande for approval


    Character Sheet Explanations

    Deity Name
    Region: Who believed in them? Norse, Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, etc.
    Dominion: What did they use to have power over? Air, water, lightning, war, death, etc.
    Residual power: What is the single power that they can still use
    Gender: The natural gender of the deity, can differ from the vessel's

    Appearance: Appearance as a deity

    Personality: Personality of the deity. It takes over the vessel's personality when the deity takes over the body. At least a full paragraph

    Family & Relationships: these are the god's relationships if any are known, so that if people create a son, daughter, lover, they are aware that.

    History:History as a deity, if any information is available. Can be written in paragraphs or as a bullet point list. No need to cover how they survived the last 1500 years and more.


    Vessel Name

    Age: Age of the vessel
    Gender: gender of the vessel, specify if they identify as non-binary
    Orientation: All are welcome
    Occupation: What do they do for a living?

    Appearance: a full paragraph of the vessel's appearance

    History: history of the vessel before and after it was taken over by the deity. At least 2 full paragraphs. No bullet list. That is a RP sample that shows the GM your ability to RP.

    O&O: link to your O&O, and anything specific to this character
    Other Notes: Anything else that you would like us to know, a plot that you'd like to play, another god that you'd like to be able to interact with, etc.

Well then since we can reserve, I'll do so with Aphrodite.

If for some reason LadyAthene declines to play, please let me know! :)

Dammnit, now you have me SO thinking about a female Thor, or Baldur. Or maybe Set...
Instead of obsessing on the person you want to be, focus on who you DON'T want to be. It's much easier to not do certain things than to break your head on some ideal of yourself.

When the dust settles, you may find out you've become who you were supposed to be all along.

I may be interested in this, possibly maaaaybe with a bisexual Odin. Or Set, if Nowherewoman opts not to pick Set.

Brain is trying to percolate with ideas for a modern-day Odin...... I really like the idea, since Odin learned seidr, which is women's magic, of Odin every very rare once in a while hopping into a female body to get back in touch with his feminine side and magic. And y'know, because I secretly want Odin to be a grim/dour shopaholic who never seems to have enough clothes. If, um, that doesn't bug anyone? >_>;

Plus....possible inspiration pictures with eyepatches!

I'll try to whip up a good sheet to send to you today, Aysande, if none of what I've said here seems like a problem. ^^

I'm thinking either a war goddess who runs a street gang (called the Valkyries, naturally), OR a trickster god, but one a little less malevolent than Loki. LIke perhaps Coyote.

It does look like the game will need some male gods at some point... so far I've had only Hades submitted who is strictly male and Odin who is able to transform between the two genders as he sees fit.

If not, sure, I will claim Venus.  I was considering The Morrigan, however, I dont know...

Can the deaths be explained by the death of a vessel? I'm not against bending things a little and give some room to creativity here. I am not talking about making Neptune happy in a desert, but explaining the multiple deaths by the death of the vessel would be acceptable.

Actually, it's part of his mythology.  Rather along the same lines as Prometheus' ever-regenerating liver.

He may not be the best choice, since his worship isn't actually dead, unlike most of the others.

With all the other religions that seems to add themselves to the list, I will have to change the character sheet a little and add a field. if you are already working on a character sheet with the unmodified template it's fine, don't worry about it.

Valid point that I forgot to cover, thanks! I would say that unless it's their power, they are pretty much human in every aspect (strength/speed/senses) but they are healthier and age a bit more slowly.

Let me know if you want me to clear the claim info on him. You might want to consider music or wisdom, I came across a deity of librarians among Egyptians I think...

I love this site for a quick database of gods and that they are about, and then go look for more information on another site because the site isn't really taking itself seriously . You might come across some entries that are less than formal. You'll find gems like:

Quote from: In Loki's entryLOKI was now well in with top God ODIN and his son THOR, with whom he shared numerous adventures. THOR, the perfect fall guy, was persuaded to appear in drag as the prospective bride of a giant and other embarrassments. THOR could always be relied on to supply the muscle when corners became too tight for trickery.

Can I lay claim to Horus? :-)

Consider it done

Quote from: RedPhoenix on January 18, 2016, 01:45:53 PM
I'd like to tentatively claim Isis.

I'm still sort of weighing if I can take another game or not so if someone else is dying to play her and knows they can just say so. :)

I won't put it in the table, since you are not sure whether or not you can join. If you decide to join and she's still free, she's yours. :)

If I remember correctly, Thoth was essentially the Egyptian god of knowledge. But it's been a while so sorry if I got the wrong name. ^^;;

Yes, sorry, should have said. PLease clear the face claim. Now, a goddess of music- LOL why had that never occurred to me? Too much like real life, maybe. Will look into it.
Instead of obsessing on the person you want to be, focus on who you DON'T want to be. It's much easier to not do certain things than to break your head on some ideal of yourself.

When the dust settles, you may find out you've become who you were supposed to be all along.

Apologies for the delay.  Having second thoughts about the workability of Coyote, am casting about for a different god(dess) that doesn't overlap too badly with things already claimed.

Well, if you're not going to go coyote, I think I'll scoop him up.

The claim has been cleared, feel free to pick him up :)

As much as I love this concept, I'm having a hard time making a character 'sing' for me.  Maybe it's a sign I'm overcommitted, not sure. Whatever it is, I think I'm going to step away.

Best of luck to you all, and enjoy!

The game as 6 females, 2 males and 1 fluid, not counting the reserved characters. Even counting the reserved one, the ratio is still off.

It needs more male characters. If the ratio becomes worse, I'll have to put a stop on female characters being accepted until it is corrected.

In that case I'll withdraw as well.

My point wasn't to even the ratio by going down, but to encourage male characters to be created...

TheBlackThrone

It looks like you have four male characters being worked out, including my own. I'm not around a computer at the moment so you'll have to wait for me to get off work to add those pics that would finish it. But unless those guys have said that they left the game, I don't see where there's a dramatic shortage.

There should be a list of who is taken and who is claimed as far as Deities go. I doubt everyone announces what they are going for.

I'm sorry, but as much as I want to play the character I was developing I have too much to do in real life at the moment to take on another group game, so I'm afraid I have to bow out as well. If Dionysus is still available when things have settled for me I'll see about coming back.

Good luck and have a wonderful game, everyone :-)

I have a concept here, and want to see if it is viable.

Can I start the game as a face claim, then switch to another?

I was thinking of starting as Ares or Mars, but his vessel is dying, so he is looking to shift into the next one. Being the God of War, he feels his vessel's soul (which he kept as a pendant or something, maybe with the help of a death god, I'm thinking Hades or Pluto, if the game has one) deserves to go to Elysium and he wants to make the transition.

Cynadea

Yes, you can start with one and switch when he leaves is vessel, no problem. It's all part of the game. What would be wrong is someone who hops from vessel to vessel for no reason. A dying vessel is certainly a good enough reason to want to go to a younger, healthier one. :)
