The Mythic Age
It was the dawn of a new era when the world was forged in the flames of Chaos, and tempered by the hands of Order. The Primordials beings of great power were born from both Order and Chaos. It was Order who gave life and willpower to these beings. Yet Chaos wished to sow the seeds of discord and whispered into the ears of the Primordials giving birth to strife and conflict. Thus the Great Cycle was born one that would see reality shatter and reform itself endlessly across the pages of space and time.
The Primordials would fight an epic battle for who would come to rule the Universe. Mundus or the mundane plane was born from this very war of creation and destruction. Entire planets were born, nebula and galaxies created from the constant destruction. Many beings would emerge from this time of ruin, the Fates, who weaved the destinies of Gods and mortals alike, the Furies who exacted punishment on those who broke their oaths. In the end, the most powerful Primordial Aetempas Brightlord of the Heavens would reign victorious over all of creation. Aetempas would shire seven children with the Earth-Mother Terra giving birth to the all-powerful Titans.
At first, the Titans served the Primordials well, but the Fates foretold that Aetempas would be overthrown by his firstborn son Terratus. Aetempas would send the Serephims servants of the Lord of the Heavens to chain the Titans and banish them to the depths of Maelstrom. In the end, Terratus defeated the Serephims and rallied the Titans declaring war on the Primordials for their betrayal. The world was reforged in this second Divine War; the Primordials would be driven to extinction, Terratus would forever chain his father to the Sky separating him from Terra forever.
Now the Titans would be the undisputed rulers of existence for millions of years to come, yet the Fates continued to weave their destinies of all beings and foretold new beings that would come to rule the cosmos. The gods born from the various love affairs of the Titans, or born by the cosmic forces were at first beneath the Titans but soon grew in power. Terratus like his father feared being overthrown and tried to banish the gods to Maelstrom, but in the end, the gods rebelled, and soon the First Titanomachy was born. The gods would end up defeating the Titans in yet another epic war of the divines. In a twist of irony Terratus along with the other Titans would be banished to Maelstrom for all of the eternity tormented for their betrayal.
Now the Aetherian Gods are the undisputed rulers of the Cosmos, they rule victorious from their base of power Mount Atherius. Mundus is in ruins, having been destroyed in the Titanomachy and an entirely new world is ready to be forged, for better or worse a new destiny shall be born in this Mythic Age where gods walk the earth.
The Mythic Age as drawn to a close. The gods have ruled Mundus for millions of years, epic tales have been written in the book of time. Tales of heroics, love, great battles, and the creation of new things and ideas. But all of that is over,nigh is the time of the Dawn Age. The crowning achievement of all this is this creation of mortal races. They are independent beings with a flicker of fire called souls. They are weak by themselves but there is something unique about them. They have the power to shape the very gods themselves, to strengthen or weaken them through the power of faith.
Permise
Welcome roleplayers to Atherius The Mythic Age!This is a game where you the player will take control of a deity, you and your fellow gods have just defeated the Titans and are now in rulers of the universe. Right now Mundus is a mess and in need of some major renovation.
Now there'll be seven main gods, who will reign in a new pantheon similar to various mythologies in real life, ruled by a powerful supreme deity think Zeus, Ra or Odin. This is based on a first come first serve basis. Once all seven positions are taken, you'll still get to play as a minor deity, but you'll just be less powerful than general. Just because you're in the main pantheon doesn't mean your all-powerful, power in Mundus is fluid and waxes and wanes, especially when mortal species are created who'll influence the power of the gods. Has time passes on you'll find that your power may decrease has the Mythic Age draws to an end, in which case the mortals will become even more critical.
This is a dice game! Every god will perform a "divine act," and the Gamemaster will roll for the result. Now let's say you're a God of Earth, you'll obviously have more success when forging mountains, deserts, and canyons then anyone else but keeps in mind that this is a mythological roleplay. Thus there's nothing a god can't do, let your imagination run wild! Also be aware that some crazy ass shit will happen don't be surprised if a four-headed dragon is born from your blood once slain in battle or that meteorite you sent kickstarted an event that awakens the Deep Ones.
Atherian Pantheon
From the tallest mountain on Terra, the gods of Atherius rule over all reality. It is a glorious palace of golden light and spires that reach into the heavens. Seven thrones adorn the center of the room where the Aetherian Gods pass their judgment. The Aetherians where the ones who overthrew Titans, and it was from this very mountain that cosmic history was changed. The most important of all the gods is the King or Queen. This Supreme Deity was most instrumental in defeating the Titans and acts as head of the Aetherian Pantheon.
