I get your point. Apologies. Though to be fair, only one major thing has happened since you last went AWOL, and that is that Kalon surrendered.

Sleep Is AWOL. Okay. Lol. I'll get something...

Well, yeah. When I sleep (being an Australian) stuff advances without me all the time. It's just part and parcel of being in a multinational RP.

NS name: Ruskland-Preuben (Rusk)
Deity name: Juri
Gender: Female
Generation: Younger
Abode: Neither, prefers to stay in a small floating house in the planet’s north pole. There is also a shrine located at the colder south pole that allows people to access her abode, to drink tea every now and then, that is, if they reach the south pole. But as for team, well, a tentative Celestial Realm for now. Think of her as a wildcard.
Domain(s): Boundaries and Space
Function(s): As a goddess of boundaries, both conceptual and physical, she makes sure no antimatter appears (boundary between antimatter and matter), or the suns starts shining and radiating heat on the other side of the planet without the physical sun actually being there due to some god dickery (boundary between day and night), and most importantly, being the monitor of the boundaries between the Underworld, Celestial and Mortal Realms, well, self-proclaimed, slightly egotistical monitor, but important nonetheless. As for space, its not the celestial bodies part of space (outer space), but the general framework of distance and direction, this also means the space of the two different divine realms, making sure nobody blows a hole through space in either of them and start causing a racket similar to pre-Realms times. (OOC Note: Not the best explanation, so I need help explaining the god and her functions)
Appearance and attributes: Due to her constant presence on the mortal realm, she has taken on a human primary form. This is to make sure she blends in easily with the locals, she has long blonde hair and golden eyes. As for her secondary forms, she also takes on the form of an albino fox, or an owl.
History and background: The moment that the very concept of opposites was thought of and set to 11 times infinity in the form of the great something and the great nothing at the beginning of the world, the idea of this goddess was realized, but her soul wasn’t formed yet. It was until the Elder Gods first made the border between order and chaos, that her soul would take form, and each time the Elders made a new boundary, day and night, sun and moon, hot and cold, good and bad, her soul was strengthened. Eventually the rapidly strengthening soul was fueled by her other domain, space, and would eventually form a goddess, which was her. She was amongst the oldest of the Younger Gods, but she was just as immature as any of them back in the day.

When life began forming, she quickly saw the ever deteriorating situation, but in her wish to form a people that she could call her own, she created a species of powerful beings that took on the primary form of human, beings powered by the belief of the other peoples, whether it be fear or anything else (though fear was most preferred by her children). A few god moments later, wars between her siblings blew into greater proportions. She wished no direct involvement, but sought out a long-term solution for her and her children, and in doing so, she created more beings, this time to occupy whatever places her siblings made. And from this policy she created gifts for her siblings.

For her sister Ashora, she created the Lunarians from the lowest of humanity, a people of immense purity, and with unrivaled technological prowess, yet she made sure that they would grow decadent in the future, turning into liabilities instead of assets. For the various siblings that would soon occupy the Underworld, she gave them many different kinds of people, again, from humans. From lumbering oni of immense strength to demons numbering in the thousands[1]. And for those that would occupy the Celestial Realm at war’s end, she gave them the Celestials, made from her own essence, though when the war ended, these beings would leave their masters for the mortal realm, masquerading as gods there. For the sun god as well as those that had fire in their domain, she created massive celestial birds that flew about in the void of space and were as hot as any star, but in due time she would once more claim these as their own and bring them to the earth to start a chain of events leading to the end times, but that time hasn’t come yet. Then finally, for her brother Lukren, she created a type of being that existed exclusively within the dream realm, these however, needed to consume the dreams of others in order to manifest in the physical realm.

Then the war ended, and her plans somewhat came into fruition. During the war, she changed, as she usually was with the humans most of the time to stay out of sight, and she saw their plight and helped in any way she could. This earned her a large worshipper base scattered all over the world to work with, and these people she used to achieve the various post-War plans she had started.

The Endgame draws near however.
Personality: Calculating, but not cold, as she can be quite compassionate to others, and she has a high tolerance level. A prankster too, as well as being an interventionist. Can be quite smug.
Other: Has the largest creation amount out of all the other Younger Gods, and all due to a single mistake. When creating the various rabbit people, she forgot to take out the rapid breeding part of them, and this manifested in the human forms of the rabbits as very short pregnancy periods, and a reserve of eggs. Suffice to say, they quickly overran continents with their numbers, and had to be culled en-masse by the others. Suffice to say, Juri was amused and not at the same time. Some of these rabbit people have been turned into immortal Lunar rabbits serving the Lunarians, though they cannot reproduce anymore, gaining population only from regular rabbit people being turned into Lunar rabbits. They live underground most of the time, away from humans.
RP samples: Longer ones further down the line.

Done deal Q.

ACCEPTED.

He's not wrong. I'm actually posting a bit more than I normally would simply because everybody else is posting so much that I have need of him to match the others's amount of activity.

Yes we do indeed seem to have raised the number of post at the cost of the length of the post rather dramatically of late. That is a problem.

I would like to remind all players in the RP of our no one-liner RP, and encourage everyone to emphasize the quality of their posts over the frequency of their posts. In particular I want to be very clear that where three or more players are interacting with one another people should allow for everyone to get a post in once in a while and not suddenly "move ahead" so to speak, leaving other players stranded and outside of the action, that isn't much fun. Lets try to do better.

That's fair. Apologies. It does have to be said that with extended interactions over a short period, the quantity of posts does need to go up, though I'll admit that the frequency of posts has been going up and quality has been going down somewhat, which like you say, is a problem.

A WIP just to be safe.

You need to pick an abode. If you don't want your god to be a frequent presence in the Underworld or the Celestial Realm thats fine, but everyone has to pick a "team". Other than that I have no issues with your app, so pick an abode and I will accept your application.

NS name: Skappola
Deity name: Æurielle (Also spelled Eurielle or Aurielle); The Divine Spark; The Architect of Obsession; The Artisan of Inspiration
Gender: Female, usually
Generation: Younger
Abode: Celestial Realm
Domain(s): Inspiration, Love, Obsession, and Insanity
Function(s): The Architect of Obsession and Artisan of Inspiration, Æurielle is the patron of all those who seek vision and passion in an aspect of their life. Whether it be enamored lovers, devoted archivists, or neurotic inventors, Æurielle is the divine spark which begins them on their paths, as well as the corrupting influence which leads those paths to consume them. Though cited by scholars as the god of inspiration, love, and obsession, Æurielle sees no difference between these concepts. To her, obsession is simply the truest form of love, and love the natural continuance of inspiration
Appearance and attributes: She generally appears as an angelic figure (As seen to the right), often clutching her divine book, the Pagida.
History and background: Æurielle's origin is shrouded in mystery for most, in no small part due to her obsessive efforts to cover it up. Indeed, it is often said that only the Elder Gods are truly knowledgeable about her beginning, and, for whatever reason, they seem as unwilling as Æurielle to disclose any information about it. According to the questionable testimony of Æurielle herself, she came about in a beam of light and inspiration in which the first humans were born, and as such should be regarded as their patron deity.

In reality, Æurielle was born not with the humans, but with the Elder Gods. In the early days, during the flurry of creation in which the Cosmos were designed and organized, divine power, hope, and inspiration radiated unknowingly from each Elder God, drenching the universe in divine light. This divine light slowly, over innumerable centuries, coalesced into Æurielle- the personification of the Divine's obsessions, inspirations, and love of this new universe. Upon seeing this new deity, the Elder Gods enslaved her, delegating to her the design of the minutiae of the world, far below their interests as ancient deities- the sea slug, the roundworm, the fruit fly, and many other lesser creatures were all designed with loving care by Æurielle, though she herself would never admit it.

It was only upon seeing the creation of humanity that her true passions were awakened. For in these young apes she saw the potential for a new beginning, both for herself and for all who had been wronged by the Elder Gods. Sneaking into Purgem Millais' workshop, she stole his holy fire and magma and fashioned it into mighty glowing hammer, which she used to free herself from the chains placed upon her by the Elder Gods. She fled, falling to Earth as a severely weakened demigod, and hiding out in a cave system overlooking a small tribe. From here she rebuilt her strength, hiding from the Elder Gods' servants and gaining cultists who called her by many aliases.


From what little power she had left, she fashioned her own pocket realm- Ohros, a plane of divine white light eclipsed by great floating palaces, gardens, and libraries. It is here that she continues to hide from the Elder Gods to this day, sweeping up what human followers she can and preparing for the day when they will inevitably find her.


Personality: Æurielle is commonly personified as a benevolent, loving mother and an unafraid, enlightened visionary by her nascent cult, but, in reality, this is little more than a costume she wears for her mortal subjects. She falls victim to the same curse of obsession which plagues her followers, fixating on arbitrary goals or ideas and focusing her entire efforts until they are realized. She is a jealous and paranoid god, believing anything other than the all-consuming mania with which she treats her loves to be false love. As such, she expects her followers to treat her with the profound and obsessive love she deserves.
Other: Æurielle enjoys imbuing her followers with her "spark" of inspiration to create great artifacts and monuments to her, but the greatest works are always those made directly by her. The most treasured and mythologized by her followers is her book, the Pagida, which is said to grant anyone the knowledge of what their true purpose in life is, bounding them to serve in that purpose for all eternity.
RP samples: I co-ran this RP

You are never too late. It looks very good, I like it. ACCEPTED provided no objection from the Shrailleeni Empire to specific mention of his/hers deity in your history.

*checks entire thread*
Seriously? Not one god of War...
Well good thing i'm here i suppose, but first, numerous questions!
Question one. Character limit? I've got two pretty much ready to fire.
Question two. God Wars. Ever happened? Regardless of plane they took place on. Important for backstory.
Question three. Is anyone here currently interested in being included in my character's biography? Two of you will be mentioned anyway, you'll see why. I'd like 2-3 others at least though who volunteer to be the ones to stop a psychotic destructive rampage before it takes out alot more than just an old kingdom. :P

On that note, the one god i will definitely use shall have the following in that exact order as domains.
War, Dragons (hai Arasi), Annihilation/Power, Rage (particularly the righteous and vindictive kind), Song.

While they do have dragons listed higher than Anamara's, it is useful to note they are almost certainly much younger as well. Infact i can almost guarantee they'll be one of if not the youngest of the current deities. Besides, the dragons probably behave a little different depending on who they're rolling with.

More like a personal army that protects her house on the mortal plane which she stays in for reasons to be revealed!
Though looking around it seems the other dragons do the whole society thing. These ones are more of your typical, 'Rare giant terrifying powerhouse murdermachine of death' type. When you meet the god they're 'protecting' you'll see why. :D

3 godly "wars" we've got in the backstory. The first is between Lokarn the Elder god of the underworld after she absorbed the Eldest God and was forcibly cut down to size. The second was were Yxraxus got sealed in the planet, and the third was between all the younger gods before the celestial realm and underworld were created to order the planet.

Hrm.
Yeaaaaaah she a bit too young in the god department for any of those. I'll have to see if maybe a more recent smaller 4th is a possible thing. Ontop of explaining why they live on the mortal plane despite slightly aligned to the Celestial, it also gives them lots of enemies.

Which i figure if you're going to have a god whose thing involves exploding stuff you might as well not limit yourself, yanno?

If that can't be a thing i guess i'll just be an instigator who keeps crossing various lines as if really trying to start one. XD

Which i figure if you're going to have a god whose thing involves exploding stuff you might as well not limit yourself, yanno?

If that can't be a thing i guess i'll just be an instigator who keeps crossing various lines as if really trying to start one. XD

Looks like you and me are going to stir some good shit up. Very nice yes?

To be quite honest mine is almost going to sound like an anarchist. They're not, not officially, but that won't matter. :P

Well good thing i'm here i suppose, but first, numerous questions!
Question one. Character limit? I've got two pretty much ready to fire.
Question two. God Wars. Ever happened? Regardless of plane they took place on. Important for backstory.
Question three. Is anyone here currently interested in being included in my character's biography? Two of you will be mentioned anyway, you'll see why. I'd like 2-3 others at least though who volunteer to be the ones to stop a psychotic destructive rampage before it takes out alot more than just an old kingdom. :P

On that note, the one god i will definitely use shall have the following in that exact order as domains.
War, Dragons (hai Arasi), Annihilation/Power, Rage (particularly the righteous and vindictive kind), Song.

While they do have dragons listed higher than Anamara's, it is useful to note they are almost certainly much younger as well. Infact i can almost guarantee they'll be one of if not the youngest of the current deities. Besides, the dragons probably behave a little different depending on who they're rolling with.

1) Well there is no character limit per se. You however only app for one god, any followers, creatures, demi-gods etc. will have to be associated with this principal character.
2) Sure, plenty no doubt. The RP's name is Theomachy after all.
3) I welcome and encourage people to write existing deities into their background.

Oof. Well that's alright.

I, uh, actually don't know what Themomachy is until i just googled it. Heh. So, i guess there's 3 already known to exist, is it alright if i were to make it 4 in past history?

I just need some volunteers is all. I noticed at least one person actually trying to rank strength and intelligence, and in the strength department i feel it's best if numerous bodies tried to restrain them. :P

Strength wise your probably going to want younger gods restraining them, as both Elders were noncombative up until very recently and both would have been able to handle them single handedly. I would suggest maybe Purgem and Hianu, as they seem the most likely to restrain a bloodthirsty god of war.

Actually according to my reading, Quendi stated the Elder Gods aren't necessarily more powerful than the younger ones. It's not what i expected that's for sure, so we should probably ask for extra clarification to be certain. Quoted from this.

"Yes there are only two elder gods in the game and they are the "leaders" of the respective planes with "leader" very much in quotation marks. They are administrators of their respective planes but they aren't more powerful than other gods and depend on their younger gods as much as their younger gods depend on them.

Why was this not a job you wanted for your god?"
Which is what led me to believe it would require several bodies to successfully restrain them without further casualties.

Well of course, Purgem is probably the next strongest, and Hianu probably wouldn't be particularly amused at the mass genocide that just occurred.
Actually in that sense alot more than 2-3 might have shown up. Unless they sympathized with the cause.

That's the way it started but that changed a bit as we rped. Lokarn at least is jacked up on both the souls of mortals and the power of another god in her.

Anamara specifically opposes direct intervention with mortal affairs. If a god was running rampant like that and affecting mortals, Anamara would be non-too-happy and definitely intervene.


TO EVERYONE: Btw if you are doing one liners, and can't think of a way to beef up your post then it may be an idea to do a colab. It should also reduce the number of posts (and potentially quotes) that others need to sift through. Just a suggestion anyway, but one that I have found helpful in the past.
While it isn't among Anamara's domains, her backstory does mention her proficiency in manipulating souls. Does anyone have a problem with her creating a weapon that can shear souls into smaller souls?

Already a thing with Lokarn and her sword, as well as the big anti-god weapon the other Elders had, so I see no problem with it.

Oof.
Dragon on Dragon violence everyone. Please look away or risk overdosing on awesomeness.
Also tbh i'd assume most or even all gods can manipulate souls. Like you can easily translate my characters domain of annihilation to be capable of annihilating souls, though instead of outright destroying them it would simply leave them in a FUBAR kind of state, likely requiring Mau or someone else to repair them.

Then again i'm not certain how shearing is different from destroying when it comes to souls actually.

The concept I was going for is essentially driving normal humans mad (they now have two animal souls or just two weaker souls sharing one body) or (with enough use) the ability to shear away a god into many mortals.

Also tbh i'd assume most or even all gods can manipulate souls. Like you can easily translate my characters domain of annihilation to be capable of annihilating souls, though instead of outright destroying them it would simply leave them in a FUBAR kind of state, likely requiring Mau or someone else to repair them.


Ability doesn't translate to proficiency. Anamara, Lokarn and another I believe are the only gods described as having actively manipulated souls directly. Lokarn mostly just turns them into energy, not entirely sure how this process works. Anamara literally rips aspects of a soul out to create new things (i.e creating vampires), rearranges souls to create new traits in an entity. Anamara rarely creates anything, more she merges and manipulates that which already exists into her creations (using shadows, whales, lizards, humans, water and aspects of magics in the past already). This kinda became her thing because of the rp I initially had her in, I just kept it as an aspect of how she goes about doing things.
