And my second app. Any probs just shoot - Robots and Akai especially :)

God's Name: Ornara/Zrixith) (There are two distinct personalities inhabiting her body, Ornara and Zrixith)
God's Powers: Ocean and Monsters
God's Divine Form: Unfortunately as always with mythical female chars, having a tad of a problem finding sfw images. I've got this or this. I quite like the former, but perhaps with some more modest clothing. It would pretty much be the mortal form as well for her usual meetings with her worshippers.
God's Mortal Form: Not to sure which to go (in addition to a more ‘normal’ appearance) this, this, this or this. Choosing pics are a bugger for me – but they all get the point across to be fair.

God's Bio:
In the beginning, when the Earth was created, it was dry and empty – life may have attempted to struggle upon its surface, but inevitably it succumbed and perished. Then, with the birth of Sapphire came the first rains. Whilst the creation of the Earth was an unparalleled feat upon itself, the creation of the first life was something that no single God could ever have hoped to accomplish. But, with the warmth of the Sun, the shelter of the Earth and the nourishment of the water, life could finally emerge and establish a foothold upon the brave new world of Creation. Gods continued to emerge, and as the rains continued large, permanent bodies of water formed upon the Earth. These were the first lakes, seas and – given time – oceans.

Mirayeset came into being as guardian over this new domain – the calm tranquillity of this frontier as of yet unclaimed by the rampant expansion of man and his kin was a haven of peace. But, the morals could not be halted in their impassioned claim to their world and soon embarked upon the vast oceans. With them came conflict, strife and destruction. As coastal settlements established themselves, storms and waves that were once merely a part of the way of things became feared tools of devastation. The Ocean had changed. And so, Ornara was born.

Younger, and more rash, than her elder sister – Nara relished the freedom and independence of the beckoning Ocean. Eternal calm and tranquillity bored her and she sought to explore and create. The oceans became filled with her attempts at creation – the inexperience of youth failing to deter her from the challenge. Creatures that other Gods would have tossed aside as write-offs were held aloof with pride and let loose upon the world. Ornara paid little heed to the consequences, with delicate ecosystems becoming easily upset by her haphazard meddling. But alas, such is the trouble with the curiosity of youth.

However, her greatest creations were the Atlanteans – her people. Although, it is perhaps ironic that they are not entirely of her own making, part result of her meddling and part of the evolution of the wiser, more experienced designs of her elders. Regardless, she was ecstatic at their existence and came to love and adore them. To Ornara, the Atlanteans are her beloved children who she takes it upon herself to nurture and protect. Whilst this was at first only a benefit to many of the other Gods – especially Mirayeset – as Nara had finally found an alternative occupation than constantly releasing her latest creations upon their realms. But, over time a few may have grown wary over the nature of her people – their expansionist nature across the islands of the world not going unnoticed. Especially as they start turning their eyes towards the continent.

Alright, so, if everyone is alright with me doing it, I'll focus on creating a map and general basis of what the world is like. I think it's better if one guy does all the organization and details while everyone shunts ideas and what they want to him, rather than have everyone talk and get nothing done.

I'll create a good idea that suits everyone, but what I'd ask are names of your kingdoms, the races, and the history behind it. IN A TELEGRAM. When things conflict, I'll talk to the specific people that it concerns, and then hopefully we'll have a nicely shaped world that makes a modicum of sense. (Other god realms that are their own planets are not included in this little map project, so anyone that strictly plays on their own realm, just ignore this post.) My hope is to create a world everyone can agree with. Bearing in mind that I am not going to limit the number of kingdoms a god could have been responsible for forming, I do want you to be reasonable in size, spread, history, and the likes. You shouldn't have a billion human, elvish, and dwarven kingdoms at your disposal while there are dozens of other gods competing with you, that's a bit nutso.

^ Brill I say. What do you think about setting up an archive thread purely for IC details and completed apps?

Also, Terminus has given me Co-OPship so I may be able to help deal with some of the backlog - just note that any decision I make CAN be overturned by the all-mighty OP.

On that note, unfortunately both of my apps are pretty good and I'm now stuck choosing between one or the other :( Any thoughts?

RP Sample: (A good example of your RP skill.)


Mortal's Name:Senna Elfkiller
Mortal's Skills: Charismatic, Tactician, Natural Warrior
Mortal’s Race: Orc
Mortal's Mortal Form: WIP

Mortal's Bio:
Born to the Chief of an average sized nomadic band of Orcs, Senna grew up under her father’s tutelage. The man was renowned not only by his people, but also throughout his tribe for his bold and compassionate rule. They lived near the border of the Orcish lands, quite far from the few major settlements that existed and spent much of their time following the seasons. Whilst being on the borderlands meant that the band escaped much of the brutality and strife that accompanied the power struggles of the major tribes, it meant that they were constantly exposed to the ever-present encroachment of foreigners.

Senna’s father had born witness to it his whole life, lands which he had roamed with his own father as a child now lay fenced off by the farms of Elves or Men. He could see the slow decadence and corruption that had torn apart the once great Orc tribes until their leaders gladly traded their birth-rights for scraps and trinkets from foreign emissaries. Determined to not allow this to be the image conjured in his daughter’s mind of her own people, she filled her head with tales of the glory days of their kind. Of a time when Orc hordes spread fear and terror across the continent and exacted due respect from the other races. Senna grew up with imaginings of all that the Orcs had come to lose, but also with the burning desire to see it reclaimed. Her father, recognising her skill and ambition, took her under his wing.

However, it would all come to an end too soon. Increasingly wary of Orc raids, neighbouring settlers had been applying pressure on their leaders to call for aid from their respective lands. Eventually succumbing to the promise of wealth and revenue to be gained from pushing back the Orcs, mercenaries and soldiers were contracted to embark into Orc lands and repel some of the roving bands. After all, as was surely reasoned, they were barbaric marauders that new nothing but of pillaging, theft and conflict – they burned homes to the ground and stole a farmer’s hard-earned grain, how could the civilized be expected to endure them?

In the crackdown, Senna’s band was pushed inland – away from their usual lands. Her father, embarking on more and more desperate raids in attempts to gain enough food to sustain his people through the winter, perished. It is with this tragedy that Senna ascended to Chief-hood, a lack of challengers ensuring her position. She spent her first year in the role merely trying to keep her band alive, eventually finding shelter when one of the larger tribes took them in where none of the others had been willing.

Senna owed her brethren dearly, and so when the Chief who had rescued her people in their hour of need called for fellow Orcs to rally with him in revolt, she finally recognised a chance to fulfil her debt. However, as their rebellion gain steam, what started out as just another power struggle that constantly plagued the Orcish lands seemed to tempt Senna with something more: a hope, perhaps, to restore her people to their rightful place.

Well, firstly, I'd like confirmation on that if you don't mind me asking for it. Don't want just any old guy running up and being president without proof that he got it. :P

Aside from that, I should note that we have an ocean goddess. We actually have two water-based goddesses. So you might want to consider some slight alterations to your goddess. As for mortals, we don't have any apps for them. We're a god rp, not a demigod or mortal rp after all.

Fair enough :P I'll TG Terminus. It's a good point though, so let's say anything I do for now is probationary.

As for the Apps, yeah hence why it's taken so long to bump them through. Although truthfully, I get the impression from Terminus' TG that he may not have had the time to fully read the mortal app so that could be in the air. My logic is that it's not like a mortal is going to be OP compared to Gods. As for the water - I've been liaising with Robots and Akai (the guys RPing the other Water God and Goddess) so that we don't step on each others toes.

God's Powers: Luck, Cleverness
God's Divine Form: A white raven.
God's Mortal Form: Arnen has many forms, of which include a young boy and a royal duke. He takes the form of whatever he needs to look like to get his work done.
God's Bio: When the world was created, Arnen stayed hidden, wanting no part in creating his own race or land. He controlled no part of the universe, or at least he didn't know he did, until he discovered that he was clever and lucky. His goal is to gain followers to become the most powerful god, and distribute luck, so that life for mortals is not routine, but instead unpredictable. He will gain followers by any means, even by tricking other gods. However, Arnen is no evil god - simply one who wants his own followers. Other gods many a time come to him for his help, as though he may lack followers, he is on no side but his own, and will serve anyone who is willing to give him something in return. He owns no city or race, but rather has small temples scattered around the globe. People will commonly pray to him for good luck.

JRolo has a God of Luck. TG them just to see if they're ok with the idea of having a new neighbour ;)
Edit: Annnd I did not realise he hasn't been accepted either...well get friendly folks! How'd you feel about co-existing?

New Tiberium-Affected Alliance wrote:God's Name: Kanosei
God's Powers: Kanosei's domain is of change and innovation, a being who, quite simply, is incapable of leaving things as they are. Kanosei's powers generally center around altering circumstance and changing the basic elements of the world - as well as her general goal. she is capable of inspiring beings to learn of new ideas, and of subtly creating inspiration by changing small bits of the environment around said beings.

Kanosei's other powers mostly revolve around changing circumstance, subtly influencing events to happen in advance but rarely doing anything direct.
God's Divine Form:http://cms.battleon.com/DF/images/NytheraVoid2.jpg
God's Mortal Form: Kanosei has a few mortal forms, but most commonly defaults to this: http://th09.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2012/069/b/4/silence_by_loundraw-d4scrcm.jpg
God's Bio:
Kanosei herself has no true understanding of when she truly formed, recalling only endless boredom until mortals came to be. As a whole, she generally has spent her time watching and subtly influencing mortals to become more than what they are, causing them to think differently whenever she felt such was necessary to improve them.


RP Sample:
A ringing of metal and the smell of burnt steel struck Fas before his eyes could visually process what happened, his reflexes saving him from a blow his eyes didn't even track. The being standing before him was something he had never seen before, Volcanic rock covered by molten lava that formed the approximate shape of a man. the heat of it's fist and the force it had struck with would have pulped Fas's internal organs without effort, had he not managed to block with his black scimitar. Even now, however, the being sported a grin on what passed for a face.
"So, you are the one they call Fas Fatum. Just as weak as I had expected."
Fas angled his scimitar, pushing his opponent's fist away with the sharp sound of stone grinding against steel, before stepping away from the punch that followed, his black scimitar coiled back like a cobra. Win or lose, Fas knew he wasn't able to run from this fight.


Similar, reads to me a bit like Nulvelith's and Utceforp's characters. I don't see any major overlap that should be a problem - but just to be polite TG them and check.

The V O I D wrote:My creation senses are tingling. You know what that means.

God's Name: Skorn the Heretic
God's Powers: God of Trickery, and Stealth.
God's Divine Form: Skorn.
God's Mortal Form: Varies. Because he is the God of trickery, he can appear as a man or woman among mortals, and can vary in size as well. He can even take the form of an animal, if he pleases.
God's Bio: Skorn the Heretic was once a part of the Pantheon of Gods. However, Skorn made a terrible betrayal to Caelum that resulted in him being removed from the Pantheon, and become an outcast among the Gods. However, Skorn, to gain revenge, began making a Cult of his own, the Heretics. Skorn and his Heretics were very anti-Pantheon, and wanted Skorn to be the only God, supporting Skorn. Skorn commanded them, once they had their bodies, to try and convert the other Pantheonic Mortals to his Cult, to trick them into joining him. To Betray their 'false gods', etc. Skorn the Heretic only wished to do this as a means of becoming the one true God to get back at Caelum. Also, Skorn hated Caelum with a brutal vengeance, and will often mock him in front of other Pantheonic Gods. Skorn now has his own threshold in some place that is not the Gods' Heaven, and not the Underworld. He lives in a mountain, among the mortals. He will sometimes go to either the Underworld or Heaven to visit his ex-brothers and sisters, but nothing more.

RP Sample: Here.


I think the resident God of Lies and co. have given their tacit approval to this but better make it official :P

Alrighty, so just tips here. Like Archangels pointed out, can't really accept or deny until Terminus says I can here.

Problems I can see:
Lunas Legion's char is the Goddess of Space and Time, so may be some overlap there. As for Destiny, I think it's open but there's some potential OPness in there. I like how you've limited the ability over the realms of other Gods, but the idea of being able to dictate the future irks me, personally. Term may say it's ok however. I'd advise perhaps limiting his ability to manipulate destinies? More along the lines of seeing a series of potential futures with 'destiny' being the more likely option? And he can try to alter the present to manipulate which of these 'destinies' is the more likely to occur?

Just some thoughts.

I think Haijira is more a god of happiness then luck/good fortune. Arnen the Trickster controls luck - both good and bad. Maybe instead of luck my god could control randomness. I meant mine to control more unpredictable parts of life rather that good fortune. I would agree if I could control randomness and unpredictableness instead.

There seems to be a lot of confusion on what gods can do. Maybe there should be set rules on what each god can do, instead of general powers, like "death" or "Oceans".
