Panthenon (Interest/OOC/Sign-ups) Open!!!

Postby Qwanch » Tue Sep 11, 2012 1:27 pm

This is a world creation RP that will have five stages:

Stage One:

Birth of the Gods

Stage Two:

Creation of the World

Stage Three:

Creation of the Intelligent Races

Stage Four:

Fall of the Intelligent Races and the Rise of Evil

Stage Five:

End of the World





As I am strapped for time, I would like to briefly say that this RP is very character driven, and even though there will be battle occasionally, the social engine of the game is the most important. Care for you're patron city, dole out gifts and punishments to your worshipers and enemies, and talk to other members of the Parthenon to make deals and gain face. Each stage represents a different era of time in the Parthenon Universe:

In stage one, new gods are coming into being (People are signing up to play, so the IC thread is just comprised of pre-world events...).

In stage two, the world is created; this includes the world itself, as well as the landmasses on it and non-sentient animals (maps and illustrations contained in spoilers would be appreciated to show new additions to the world map... I'll compile it together at some point.).

In stage three, we each either make an intelligent race or we endorse someone else's race.

In stage four, the players that choose an evil alignment band together and cause chaos by corrupting the intelligent races. Good characters try to keep altruism alive in the world. Neutral characters just kind of hang out or play both sides... like businessmen sometimes do.

Stage five is something we hope doesn't happen for a long time, but when the thread looks like it's about to die, we'll use it to completely destroy the world using our god powers.

A reboot will then be decided on.

I do love a good deity RP. :D Can I reserve a place and then make an application when I've seen some more allignments? I love my chaotic neutral but if there's too many of them I'll use my lawful good...

Edit: Hmm. Can I possibly reserve domains, too? Either knowledge, illusions and general mischief or justice, law and order. If I can't, that's fine, I'll just fill out an app. soon, but I just don't want there to be too many of one allignment and everything go wrong like I've seen happen before.

I might change favoured race to K'chain Che'malle or Forkrul Assail. (I'll edit in a few hours).

Honestly still can't decide between my two characters, but... Well, I'll have my chaotic-slightly-evil, since there is no 'evil' alignment on the table here.

Name: Merva
Personality: Arrogant, selfish and just a little bit mad, Merva has been described as an 'arrogant, insufferable, genius git' at his best. At his worst, he'll kill anything that gets in his way simply because, have plots within plots within plots and intentionally get in the way and on the nerves of anyone trying to do anything good. Because of all of this trolling and plotting, however, he isn't the best fighter when he doesn't have a plan, has a very low pain tolerance, and can be a bit of a coward if he's actually in danger with no way out.
Alignment: Chaotic-slightly-evil
Patronage (God/Goddess of ______): Knowledge, illusions, lies (and general mischief when he's being his nicest)
Gender: It varies. He's a trap, generally looks feminine whatever his gender (the only real difference being a slight change in body shape), and so just look out for whatever pronoun is being used at the time, and what sort of situation he's in. He generally shapeshifts into a woman, but can pass for one wearing androgynous clothing.
Favored Race: Elemental golems (fire/ice/earth/air, soldiers who don't have the best mental capacity and will easily do his bidding.)

Edit: If anyone's skimming posts that means I no longer need justice, law and order as attributes, 'kay!

Uh, I'm the God of Change, among other things. You might've stolen that guy from Heroes, but I think The Malazan Book of the Fallen has better material for Gods(especially since there are many gods in it).
Try another one, Aster.

Also, I've changed my favoured race from Humans to the awesome K'chain Che'malle (And Nah'ruk, for that matter- cause they have lightning guns). Simply because high tech dinosaurs with magic and kick-ass fighting skills are awesome.

Lol, looks like a combination of The Sister of Cold Nights and maybe a female version of Draconus. Probably his two daughters, anyway- Envy and Spite.(From The Malazan Book of The Fallen).

I just thought it went well with Evolution *shrug*

I've always wanted to actually use a God of Evolution. And nothing screams Evolution more than Sylar. I don't actually plan on having him act like him though.
