You are all GODS!!

HolyMan

Thy wounds are healed!
Ok SunKing (whom I hope comes back) hasn't been around and he peeked some interest in a topic I have wanted to try, and would like to keep the discussion going here.

You are all gods each of a different patheon and you are bored. Each of you in the past has made a world of your own, either a whole celestial body in the cosmos or just an out of the way plane that you use as a place to roam in material form.

But after ages of exploring, twiking, and even rebuilding it is time for something new. Hearing that other gods have the same feelings you all agree to meet in the Grey Mist, a neutral ground where you may only enter in spirit and only communicate with each other (no powers, attacking or other interaction is possible). You have come to the conculsion that a world made with every aspect of the Gods is intruging and you all now meeting to discuss it's creation.

A few things:
a) You each have a home dimension (like a layer of hell, a forest world, an elemental plane, whetever you wish)
b) You have followers/slaves/worshippers living on/in this dimension (note: this is one race- human, orc, fire elemental, with a few subtypes allowed)
c) In the Grey Mist it is RP only... the only things need to start play are:
1) Name
2) home dimension (type and name)
3) worshippers race
4) god aspect (panethoen or domains)
5) alignment
d) This will be a 3.5 D&D game that during world creation we will refine the rules and make characters (mortal avatars or some such). Then have the bored godlings go have some adventures. :lol:

My humble concept:

The One and the Many is the spawner of forests, swamps, jungles, greasslands, saltmarshes and any kind of vegetated landscapes. He inhabits one and all at the same time, traveling through the plants. It shapes the earth to fit the needs of the plants it spawns. It's chaotic nature distancing it from regular structures, like blocks posts or similar objects. It tends to destroy and reshape things, twisting it's original form. He wanders the forests and jungles, spawning new plants, fungi and mosses, and eating up the dead ones. It also spawns thousand of vermin to help it in that task.
The One and The Many can creat oasis in the middle of deserts, creating rain and lakes, and populating them with evergreen plants.

a) Geas: A rocky world with bast rivers and lakes, and few oceans. The world's temperature ins high and the entire surface is heavily vegetated, jungles swamps forests and grassplains extent worldwide. The only living creatures in this world are analogs to plants mosses and fungi, along with vermin.

b) The followers of the One and the Many are sentient plants and fungi, like myconids, shambling mounds and treants for example.
c) In the Grey Mist it is RP only... the only things need to start play are:
1) The One and the Many
2) Geas
3) Sentient plants
4) Domains: Plants, Earth, Water. God aspect: A swarm composed of plants and fungi, like a giant Shambling mound. This creature has like a hive mind that controls and feels every living creature in Geas. Essentially, The One and the Whole is Geas.
5) Chaotic neutral

Awww... no BECMI rules for Immortals? ;)

What does BECMI mean?

My interests have been piqued, will we have to chose domains?

Yes you would be making your "god" as you go along but you need a base which could change.

@VV Very Nice The God of Shambling Mounds is now created lol

edit; going to edit in people and their characters in post #1 VV is done

Duretep, The Lost Prophet

Name/s: Duretep, The Lost Prophet, Twisted Messiah, Mad Seer
Symbol: A burning book

[/sblock]
Home Plane: Skelsdebraast: This used to be a place of great serenity and peace where the former lord of knowledge used to walk and contemplate many things. When Duretep changed the land also changed, everything becamse warped and illogical. Trees have eyes that watch you, the clouds in the sky shift and change constantly, rocks fall upwards and other manner of the natural order being ignored. Duretep sits on his throne which is at the top of massive plateau that has stairs that while walking forward you can never move up but walking backwards up them will cause you to move up. His throne is carved out of a massive tree that at first glance is covered with black leaves but on closer examination they are actually ravens. His throne is in the center of the ruins of his greatest library, where his change actually occured.
Portfolio: Prophets, Insanity, Dreams
Worshipers: Wandering prophets that speak mad words of the end of the world and insane revelations of that no sane mind can comprehend are the followers of The Lost Prophet. Some diviners still pray to him seeking knowledge that may be lost to some sane dieties. Many Aberrations revere this diety, especially the Illithids who have great respect for his world spaning plans
Cleric Alignments: CN, CE, N, LN (they rever the planning aspect of Duretep)
Favored Weapon: Kukri (Duretep dual weilds 2 intellegent kukris, Zhubkim the Whisperer and Tundntbur the Watcher)

Duretep is the God of mad seers, false prophets, and any who find understanding within the confines of insanty. His messengers in the waking world are ravens that all have a mental connection to him, so the Lost Prophet senses through them. Duretep used to be a god of knowledge until he found out something that shattered his mind and caused his body to morph into something hideous. The gods of his former pantheon banished him to a demiplane of blackness where he stayed locked away, but the dieties underestimated him and thought his insanity to be a detremental to The Twisted Messiah. He himself is insane although this allowed The Lost Prophet to make plans that are so far reaching and rely on factors that no sane person could come up with, or diety. He waited in his prison for aeons with the patience of an immortal until a creature remebered his name in a dream, this allowed him to break into it's dream and takeover it's dreaming form. He then travelled among the dreams of the sleeping, seeding their unconcious minds with mind shattering thoughts. It is said that whenever someone has a bad dream Duretep passed through their dreamscape. Duretep wandered from dream to dream in search of a place where he can once again gain back a corporeal form, and then he broke through the barrier of theplane of dreams and stumbled into the Grey Mists...

Clergy: The Clerics of The Mad Seer usually congregate around prophets and seers hoping to gain any knowledge through their words, wether actual words or just crazed ramblings. They usually wear large homespun robes that conceal they're forms. The robes allow for them to move unnoticed, hide equipment, and it allows them to hide they're forms which have been altered in many ways in attempts to emulate their hideous god.

Missions: The quests that Duretep looks upon kindly (if he still has that emotion, or emotions at all) are those that have to do with either helping, seeing, or recording the words of a prophet of some sort or seeking retribution of a church or group who labels those who are sacred to the Twisted Messiah as heretics.

Churches: Duretep has few churches, perfering his worshippers to be on a constant pilgrimage to spread his words. Those he does have are usually not far from well travelled roads, if one knows where to look. They are usually abandoned (be it through the original occupants choice or not) church of another faith that has been transformed into a Church of The Mad Seer. Within these churches The Lost Prophet's followers gibber madly in unison instead of sing and take hallucinigens to blur the line of reality. Within these temples there is writing on every surface, this writing is in every language imanginable and all speak prophetically of great events that have happened or have yet to pass, and the lighting is placed to purposfully throw shadows in strange shapes.

Avatar: Altough Duretep has not stepped foot upon the earth in eons for a small period of time (for gods) he did walk upon the earth. His body was that of a well muscled man that wore simple pants. His head was that of a goats that had eyes that were blood-shot and were constatantly scan the area, but he walked straight as an arrow even though his eyes did not focus on the direction he moved. On his back were two massive black feathered wings and his hands and all over his body was writing that would shift and change. In his hands he held two intelligent kukris, Zhubkim the Whisperer and Tundntbur the Watcher. Zhubkim was made of a bright silver but the sun never glinted off of it. Whenever the wind would blow over it an infernal whispering could be heard that would drive creatures mad and once brought into combat a fog would surround it that would creep up to the elbow of Duretep making it dificult to know where it was going to hit. Tundntbur glowed a dark black and seem to flow and waver as if it was liquid. It was this weapon that Duretep would let go of to fight for it's self and as it cut through people it would scream when it delivered a mighty blow.

Name: Lavaria (La-var-ee-ah)
Home Dimension: Elemental Plane of Fire
Followers: Fire Elemental
Goddess Aspect: Domains of Fire, Chaos, Vengeance
Alignment: Chaotic Evil

Brief History: Lavaria was created eons ago on the plane of elemental fire and even from birth she showed her talent to create chaos and fire and much much more. Even from a youngling, her talents with her massive amount of unmatched powers were far beyond her time. As she 'aged' her powers reached nearly every tendril of the plane of fire in some fashion or another, and before long her downfall at the hands of her rivals was underway. Nearing her 1000th year of power the trinity of sisters whom of which were her closest rivals, gifted their power to Lavaria as a show of trust and 'pledged tribute' to the lava goddess. Sadly the power they had gifted to her was tainted and when she went to use it as a show of reign in her power she was sucked into and cast forever to the Grey Mist never to return to the elemental plane of fire again. Sense she was betrayed Lavaria has learned to pull from the plane of fire to the Grey Mists, however she has still not learned a way to return herself to her beloved home. Her demeanor changed considerably when she was expelled from her home plane. She turned cold and selfish wanting nothing more than her old home back and will stop at nothing, even trying to recreate her home plane if she has to, and will go through anything in her way to get what she wants. Lavaria sees this new opportunity as her first step in her struggle to have her home back by any means possible.
