[QUOTE="Moe Ronalds, post: 302967, member: 2083"] This is a thread where I'll be posting storyhours for a campaign I'm in, as soon as we actually start playing. I will however, be able to post some info already. Setting: The PCs are all gods, existing mostly in the realm of the gods, but also on their own, private plane. The earth, has just recently been birthed as a grand project by them, though a few gods may eventually add things to the world they created. Gods in this campaign are not created by any grand creator deity, they have all been born (some differently than others). Also, none of the gods are evil, at least to begin with. If something were to happen to them, or they were to die however, the god would turn to the darkside (and once down that path they turn, forever will it dominate their destiny! ;) ). The characters start off as 5th level (in terms of the realm of godhood anyway). Characters in the campaign are represented like this: For every level they have, they also have the abilities of a cleric of equal level, and they have one special power. The gods are as follows (I'm including everything I can about them in case anyone has any ideas for this campaign because it's pretty much going no where (plus, since we haven't actually played yet, this is gonna be the bulk of my post.)): Name: Darin Alignment: Neutral Good (I think) Job: Protector of the forests and it's inhabitants. Level: 5th level ranger Favored Weapon: Quarterstaff Granted Power: Can temporarily turn normal trees into treeants so that they may defend themselves. Domains: Nature, Plant, Animal, Protection Created Race: A race of good Rakshasas Appearance: Blue Drow with white tiger head, wears cloak of leaves. Name: Taiyou (my character. :D ) Alignment: Chaotic Good Job: God of fire and the sun, and all that the sun shines upon. Level: 5th level fighter, going to multiclass to fire Shugenja soon Favored Weapon: Falchion Granted Power: Can change the intensity and direction of the sun's rays at will. (So effectively I suppose I could cast daylight and sunbeam at will, but I didn't think of that at first, I swear) Domains: Fire, Protection, Sun, Good Items: 2 fully charged wands of burning hands, flaming falchion, flaming longbow, glammored Mithril shirt Cohort: A good Nightmare with a white coat, a pompous british accent and a rather nagging nature named Apollo. Used to be a humanoid but was transformed by many years inside the womb of the volcano from which Taiyou was born (more on this later) Appearance: A 7-foot tall elf-like creature with wild hair dressed as an arabian knight (think moonlight night from sailor moon) with his holy symbol (a sun with a flame in the center) on the front and on the back of the cape. Also has flames surrounding his pupils. You can’t see this, but lava flows through his veins rather than blood. BRIEF History: His father was a once-powerful god (creator of the humans) who was struck down by his arch enemy, the first god of death (who was also killed in the process). His father's loyal servant Apollo managed to turn the god into a powerful volcano, but in the process was sucked into it's womb. Here, Apollo was slowly transformed into his current state, and Taiyou and his three brothers were born. His brothers include the god of trickery and bounty hunters, one of the new gods of death (possessed by the former god of death), the god of Flamboyance and all feathery beings (particularly flamingos) and Taiyou. Created Race: The Solaars, tall, slender beings with pointed ears and a special affinity for fire. They are very likable and kind, but their chaotic streak and innability to stay focussed can make them annoying at times. Name: Dracnic Alignment: Neutral Job: God of all things Draconic Level: 5th level Wizard Favored Weapon: Quarterstaff Granted Power: Can Polymorph into a dragon (can’t be a dragon whose age category would normally have more HD than her) one time per day. Domains: Fire, Protection, Magic, knowledge Appearance: A purple-skinned being with the wings and tail of a dragon. Created Race: The Draiks, a race of beings created in her image. Name: None yet (grrr…) Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Job: Goddess of the moon, and creatures of the night (particularly lycanthropes) Level: 4th level fighter, 1st level druid Favored Weapon: Spiked Gauntlet (wtf???) Granted Power: None yet (as you can see I was the only one in the mood to play today.) Domains: Trickery, Magic, Earth, Animal Appearance: None Yet (shish!) Created Race: She created the lycanthropes, I dunno what else she plans to create. Name: Erin (pronounced weird) Alignment: Lawful Neutral Job: Goddess of Death and magic Level: 5th level bard (yes, I realize none of us make sense, myself included) Favored Weapon: Glaive Granted Power: None yet (sigh) Domains: Death, magic, Knowledge, Law Appearance: You know I’m gonna say it, but… none yet (kill me now god! (wait wouldn’t that be suicide?)) Created Race: She says she’s going to make elves but she’s going to make them BETTER. (yes, because everybody knows elves got the shaft and they got it bad) The DM’s character (darin) so far seems to make the most sense, but I plan to take up a few levels of fire shugenja, just after I get improved critical (falchion) and improved critical (longbow). Any ideas/criticisms are welcome (if things go according to plan (do they ever?) we’ll play this wednsday). I’ll be posting stuff for Taiyou’s brothers soon (because I’m sure you’re all DYING to know more about them. :p) [/QUOTE]
