I'm interested, and I'll make a character sheet quite so soon.

In the mean time, the deity what I'll reserve, is the God of Risk.

O/O

Hexed

finally had a brainspark. is Goddess of earth to broad a concept?

Kissa

Added god of risk in the reservation list.

As a title goddess of earth is okay. The rest depends on how the char is made. In general we suggest avoiding chars who have powers that are like ‘I can do everything with X’. Do you you know what kind of abilities and powers you would like your char to have?

Hexed

Geokinesis mainly. If it helps the inspiration pic is an older Toph with rocks floating around her. Will jump through the hoops after work to bring it here as image site it's on isn't too nice on link sharing. :D

Not able to affect plants or creatures directly just rock, stone, sand, etc. Was the only inspiration so far so and can certainly work on paring it down as needed.

Yep. Geokinesis is possible. We are looking forward to see what the first draft will look like. Going to update Earth in reservation list.

Also, we are aiming to get opening post up on saturday. (For me today was busy because of roof rats, car problems and such.) We are going to do couple rounds of posting before anything big happens, so there will be plenty of time for people to finish their sheets and even after happening happens, it should be easy to hop in : )

Silim

For now, here's a WIP!

Vengeance
God name: Schalae
Alias: Virisaele
Title: God/Goddess of Vengeance, Incarnation of Vengeance
Age: 28
Gender: Female (Fluid within the Sapphire City)
Race: Half-Elf (Snow-Elf/Human)
Sexual orientation: Bisexual
Player Name: Silim

Physical Description: In the Sapphire City, Schalae has a far more indistinct form, resembling a solidified, condensed mixture of blue energy and living shadows. This indistinct form can appear closer to a male or female form at their choice. While posessing a vessel, Schalae takes on whatever gender identity the vessel held without problem.

Personality: Who is your character? What makes her what she is? What are her dreams and fears? Does she have some long term goals? Here you can tell about what she likes and dislikes too.

History: Vengeance is not Revenge. Schalae is a creation of Desire and Order, although they've had no contact with their progenitors since creation, as seems common among the lesser gods. From the beginning, they've had little to no interest in the concerns of the immortals, and took exceptional notice of those in need of their specific domain. Not revenge, but only vengeance - those horribly wronged crying out in pain and anguish. And so it comes as little surprise that she would often dive down into Azure, possessing those whose need was greatest and bringing often brutal and swift vengeance at the behest of those unknowingly invocing their presence. Almost always, Schalae would afterwards leave their hosts behind - only staying for longer when noticing more injustices that required pure vengeance to undo.

Deity power: The Eyes of Judgement. 

Mastery: Represents the knowledge and skills related to combat matters, if applicable. If your character isn't well-versed in direct combat, then their knowledge of how they aid and support others goes here.

Max 3 masteries. Aim to match the masteries with the general theme of your lesser god. Despite being called gods the characters aren’t meant to be almighty beings. Please try to keep your characters' talents and abilities in order, and refrain from trying to implement multirole powers or abilities that let you do multiple things with one slot.

Talents: Represents non-combat related knowledge, such as hobbies and other personal skills that do not have a place on the battlefield but still define your character and their role as a deity. Aspects such as Sailing, Baking, Handicrafts, knowledge of certain matters, and more all go here. Min 2, maximum 5.

Equipment: If your character has some unique or significant equipment, should it be mentioned here. No need to list every handkerchief or pair of socks your char has, but if the char has, for example, Blade of Phoenix, Orb of Seeing or something similar, then it goes here. If you char owns nothing special enough worth mentioning, delete this section.

Advantages:These are advantages that give your character a bit of an extra edge compared to others. Minimum 3, max 5.

Weaknesses:Things that stop your character from being perfect, those lovable imperfections that make them relatable. Minimum 3. No maximum limit. It is possible to remove weaknesses by overcoming them (doing scenes where that happens), but the number of weaknesses can’t go below the minimum of 3.

Player Ons and Offs: Optional. Sexual and non-sexual things you like and don’t like in your roleplay. Link to your O/Os works too.

Gardsorm

Hey, welcome to the game, Silim! :3 A God of Vengesnce, huh?

We have two from Order and one from the Desire, but we're not exactly enforcing any creation limits yet... Plus unless my bad memory is letting me down, we don't have one that's from both Order and Desire, so fun matchup!

I like the workings of the sheet so far, can't wait to see it when it's finished! ^^

The story itself has started since Saturday, but we're only on the first round of posting so everyone is still situating themselves ingame. =p No need to rush, you or anyone still working on their sheets, but we're planning for events to kick off sometime after everyone is in the same general space

Kissa

The game has started and we have done a couple GM rounds already, but it’s still easy enough to join if someone wants to join us : )

For those who are interested and reading the thread, I would like to tell that we have information thread now and there were few small additions that the original text on this thread didn’t have. The additions can be found easily in the edit log so one doesn’t need to read through the whole text to find what was added in it. From now on, all edits and additions will be made only to the info thread.

In addition to info thread we have character thread for accepted chars and story thread. All these are linked in the first post of this thread too.

 I know I am kind of late to the party, but I would like to throw my hand in the ring for this as a goddess of Fortune.
Locked, cocked and ready to rock!


Gardsorm

Hey again, Sessha! =p Welcome to Mortal Gods and thank you for showing interest!

Unfortunately, I have to bring up bad news in that a Goddess of Fortune is already being worked on by another player, so that one is not available at this time. >.< Do you have any other ideas you'd like to try?

Kissa has an excellent tradition of making character lists, check here to see what's taken and what's available!

Ps. Also yeah. Probably not showing reserved concepts still being worked on.

Sessha

 Well there is only really one left based on how many and that's a goddess of the Earth.

Steir

I think the ones listed are those other players have already claimed. So anything unlisted is still open to claim.

WilyRiley

*peeks in*

I don't know if I haven't had enough coffee (not that you can ever have too much coffee) but I cannot for the life of me piece together what might possibly still be open lol. I have looked at the reservations, the current characters, the intro post...it's not clicking for me. I apologize in advance if I am just being a big dumb.

I am interested, so if there is something open I will snatch it. Slowly...because lack of coffee is still a problem haha.




Revelation

I too am interested, been trying to think of what god to portray but might need s'more time to figure that out.

Kissa

Sessha
There are plenty of deities left. The ones in the reservation lists are deities someone has shown interest to and so for they are reserved, but everything that isn’t in the list is still free.




I will update the reservation list. There is 14 days limit to reserving a deity. If nothing happens within 14 days, the deity will be considered released for use. Sin is free now and Fortune is in editing phase.

Animals, Risk, Earth and Vengeance haven’t had any progress in a long time, so we will give their players two days time to do something or those deities will be released.

It’s a happy surprise to see new people showing interest in the game : ) Our opening scene is approaching its end, so this a  perfect spot for those who are interested to make a char and join for the second scene : )

WilyRiley

I'm so sorry, my brain just was not clicking when looking at the lists hehe.

I will happily toss my hat into the ring for Risk.

Gardsorm

I think something was misunderstood. =p The Deity types listed have either been claimed here and have characters, or were claimed by other people and have not had any progress yet.

So no, Risk is not available to be claimed... Yet, anyway. As Kissa stated, players with a claimed Deity type at some point in this topic who have not given us any update as to their plans or any work-in-progress sheets, will have two days to work on something or their claims are forfeited. In the mean time, any Deity type you do not see on that list, is potentially up for grabs!

Hopefully that makes things a little clearer. : )

Sessha

 Hmm of the types left I think for the moment I'll stick with Earth. Was hoping Fortune would have been open. Then I could have used an old image of mine. Hehehe Gard knows who I'm talking about. Though I did have one question. Since you have an Earth opening what about a god or goddess of the Sky? It seems only fair to me there should be one right?

Steir

I don't recall anyone claiming Sky, so wait and see what admin says about it. :3c

Kissa

I will try to specify this.

The reservation list is list of deities that are already taken. It is NOT list of deities that players can choose from. I will change its name to ‘List of deities that are already taken’ because it seems to confuse some people.

So where is list of available deities?

There is no such list. Players make up their own deities. The only limitations for making a new deity are that it must be something that is NOT in the list and if for whatever reason I and Gard see it unsuitable for the game.

So yes, sky is still available. So is water, wind, fire and other elements, beasts, sin, wine, fertility, hunting, arts, oaths, etc.   

Gardsorm

Alright, it has been some time, and based on the lack of updates since their claims or a reminder as to where they stand, I must declare Risk, Earth, Animals, and Vengeance are now free from claims. If anyone has any interest in those God focuses, you may now seek to claim them if you wish!

Sessha

 I think I will go ahead and make mine as a goddess of Gambling. Or does that fall under Risk? If so I'll go with that instead.
