A New Pantheon (Deity RP, OOC, Open)

[Illan]

I'm now making a poorly rendered GIMP drawing of Mirayeset because I don't have fancy programs nor a tablet thing to draw properly on, so this is the best I can do for interwebs.

Ooh, I'd love to do that for Arkahmis since I had to jump through so many hoops to get a proper look for him, but I have no drawing skills.

Please send me the picture when it is done, yeah?

I'll just post it here, but I can TG you if you'd like as well.

[Jorliefstreiken]

Maybe you can draw all the gods next to each other.

Okay I think you misunderstand...

this is a crappy GIMP drawing. If I were doing it by hand, I've have much better quality control (I am, without doubt, better with a physical pencil in every way), but I'm limited here.

You'll just have Void in the background...

I know but if you do get that stuff or your drawing one day, maybe draw the Ichors next to each other.

I'd love for Arkahmis to be drawn one day

I would appreciate that, I may miss it if it is on here.

Nation/Faction name: Vos Terranaiva (Also known as "The Lands Under the Earth"). The official government of these lands is known as the "Arkahnate."

Race(s): Truly, anyone who wishes to pursue the teachings of Arkahmis in such a manner that brings them to the Arkahnate would be welcomed, so long as sabotage and such things are not intended. Wood and Dark Elves are rather common, along with Humans and Dwarves, but truly any race can be found in Vos Terranaiva should one have an eye for it.

Patron God(s): Arkahmis being the primary deity of their customs, they also revere all associated nature gods in a similar way, such as Alerielle and Mirayeset.

Current Leader(s):

The two different branches of the Arkahnate, the "Crystos" Branch (Derivative of "Crystal" or "Crystalline", will elaborate later) and "Metallus" (Derivative of "Metal" or "Metallic") have two separate leaders that are the heads of their respective branch. For the Crystos Branch, a shrewd and beautiful wood elf maiden by the name and title High Archess Nara Lleviana leads, ruling over the more cultural and foreign affairs of the nation with a typically outstretched and welcoming hand. For the Metallus Branch, the Dark Elf Aravis Elcherion holds the position of High Archon, directing the more judicial and legislative affairs of the Arkahnate, in addition to the military it keeps.

Brief History:

Geographical area and key features:

Unlike any other society in Drinda, Vos Terranaiva is nearly one-hundred percent subterranean. Massive, bustling cities built into gargantuan caverns carved out by Arkahmis himself are spread all around the mountains they are buried under, and are all connected by elaborate underground highways lit by fires or, more commonly, natural magma flows. All created by the hands and power of Arkahmis, he has spent many, many ages formulating his perfect ideal paradise - a safe one at that. Despite how this may seem, the cities of Vos Terranaiva are incredibly beautiful. Stonemasons in the nation are the most masterful of all Drinda, constructing beautiful and intricate buildings, spires, temples, roads, and much much more. The natural beauty is immense too - huge fresh water rivers flow alongside rivers of magma often, and the vista of one of the open caverns in its fullness is magnificent, to say the least.

Vos Terranaiva has five major underground "undercities", with one being the nation's both religious and government capital, each of them situated under the peaks of mountains and duly named after them. From smallest to largest, there is Tyra Primilla, situated under the Primilla mountain, the first of the cities situated in the caverns constructed by Arkahmis. Next is Nyla Avalana, situated under the "Avalana" mountain, and is the second most densely populated one, likely because it is closest to the surface of the five. Third is the Vala Neirousa, under the mountain Neirousa - it is a largely military based city, and holds the largest garrison in all of Vos Terranaiva - it is closest in proximity to the capital for this reason. Next is the Syra Kiala, situated under the Kiala mountain. It is known as an "artist's city", as many of the nation's jewelers, stonemasons, potters, and much more live here due to the high amounts of clay and various precious gems and metals in the nearby mines, making tourism here rather high. Lastly is the capital city, Vyra Nexus, found under the aptly named Nexus mountain. It is located in the center of Vos Terranaiva under the highest mountain peak, and is said by many to be one of the "most spectacular sights in Drinda". The city itself is huge, and the cavern it rests in reflects that, always lit up so that not a corner of the gargantuan cave is dim, and such unique style of stone and crystal architecture it is mesmerizing. Commonplace throughout the cities - not just Vyra Nexus - is the use of hexagonal granite stacks as staircases, a very aesthetically pleasing feature, and when entwined together, they look nothing short of elegant.

Also in Vyra Nexus is the huge buildings that make up the Arkahnate capital, large structures that, much like the rest of the city, are adorned with beautiful crystals and shine with illumination.

Map Claim:
Strictly the mountains.
Their whole society is almost entirely underground, with the extremely rare settlement/fortress situated around an entrance to their undercities.

TO BE CONCLUDED

I just want to get this up.

I've done that too.

No my computer shut down suddenly

[The Ik Ka Ek Akai]

Right so moving to paint because it's actually easier to work with (Had some sizing issues and GIMP kinda screwed me over there)

[The Ik Ka Ek Akai]

To be honest, GIMP's not great. It's free because it's lower quality than most stuff. It's got the basics, but....it can be a pain, sometimes.

Lord, you must be desperate if Paint is a better option.

Well, I WAS doing moderately okayish, but when I had to resize, GIMP decided to just put backgroundlessness where the expanded template was supposed to be, and no matter what I did, it simply did not turn out right.

Though, I'm having just as bad luck with paint. Without a pencil, there's so much that's infinitely more difficult to do.

My printer's got a scanner, I MIGHT be able to figure it out later.

Hand-drawn promises much better quality control. I've never been good with a mouse or touchpad.

I don't see how anybody could be, honestly. It feels far too jerky, among many other things.
