Lords of Creation: Omnigenesis [OOC]

[Promise]

Hey everyone, I just got accepted in the recruitment thread. As I understand it, I need someone to create me? Or can I just jump in?

[C'nor]

Someone will need to make you, yes.

[Darklady2831]

Rollover all, go ahead and gain your AP

[Promise]

Is there a way to determine who will spawn me? Or do I simply wait for someone to offer? It's fine either way, I'll play games mean while

Well, if you see a god on the table that you think would make a good parent, go ahead and ask them, if not, someone may offer. Either way, you'll have to wait for them to create you.

[ChrisClark13]

You should also note what rank the races are each.

...and on that note, what if I made humans as a Legendary Race?

I was planning on making humans, but I'm more than willing to split it with you.

[ChrisClark13]

Hmm... nah. If I make them a "Legendary Race" then they're not so... human anymore. I'll make some kind of elfish race instead...

That's also Lengendary.

Edit: Are there automatically smaller poplulations of races higher ranked than Mundane?

Not by definition. But it is often done so.

[mystic1110]

Mods: lets decide who's keeping track of what...

Everyone: remember their is no difference between PAP and AP anymore. But when you make mandates, legends and demigods... please be careful with keeping the AP actions separate. Also would help yourselves if you keep a log of your own AP actions

@ Draken: I love Arlom's and Ing'dras' evil plans of building roads and cities... muhahaha

[ChrisClark13]

I can do that, not sure if you guys can make /another/ thread to keep track of all this, because that'd be nice.

5 AP Weave Plane: The Green Sun
Somehow in a trinary orbit with the other suns, it shines a nice green color. Like the others, approaching it unprotected is a really bad idea.
5 AP Cosmic Decree: Every mortal being has a portion of the Velharan, Valmyr, and Vylcent's lights within them, forming the soul. The amount of the lights are not always in equal porportion to each other. I think this means that each of the brother's personalilty's forms the core of all the mortal's personalilities. But what effect this has for sure will need to be decided in OOC. Other gods are free to throw their little bits into this mix as well, but it'll have to be done with another Cosmic Decree if you want it to affect every mortal.

5 AP Left

I'm waiting for Vel and/or Val to post before I make another post, fyi

[Maugan Ra]

To clarify, the effect of Arathor's blessing there is to make the Beasts in the Endless forest capable of using tactics, which their lack of a coherent society or true sentience would normally deny them. It operates on a purely instinctual level for them, but is no less dangerous for that.

Actual, sentient life will be incoming. Because who doesn't like werewolves?

[THEChanger]

Greetings and good fortune!

I was also recently approved in the recruitment thread, and was awaiting the making of mortals to put my deity in the OoC, for reasons which may become apparent as you read.

I would be looking for a creator. I think either Bharus or Valmyr would make good progenitors.

But, here he is folks....the deity you've all been waiting for...

Ordon the Monster Chained Beneath the Mountain

Originally Posted by THEChanger

Name: Ordon, the Monster Chained Beneath the Mountain

Played By: THEChanger

Domains (Portfolios): Order(Punishment), Metal(Bindings)

Theme: Enforcer of Law

Alignment: LN

Attack: 3d6
Defense: 5d6
HP: 20

Description: He was mortal once, or so the legends say. A man of fiery hair and burning arrogance. He thought himself above the petty laws of his fellow man, thought himself worthy to take up the divine mantle. He considered himself a lord, a master, a king.

He considered himself worthy enough to defy one of the twelve.

Which among the twelve is no longer remembered. Perhaps he entered the grand Labyrinth which is Arlom, and demanded the Mayor of that place surrender his city. Perhaps he stood against Valmyr the Sword of Light, and struggled to take his throne from him. Perhaps in the deepest winter he came upon Bharus the Frostking, and attempted to wrest that lord’s icy crown away.

Whichever of the twelve Ordon offended, they decided his arrogance was too severe for mere death to be an appropriate punishment. Ordon would have his wish. He would become a god.

Bound with chains of rusted iron, Ordon was dragged deep, deep beneath a mountain of red stone. There, in a chamber filled with the molten magma of the world’s core, Ordon was chained to a mighty boulder. Fused to the very rock around him, Ordon was given a charge. He would be henceforth a servant, a protector, and an enforcer of the laws and oaths of mortals.
Ordon’s body lies there still, but his spirit is free to roam. All the gleaming metals of the earth are his chains, and when he wishes to travel, he forms a body of iron, or bronze, or gold as the occasion merits, a vaguely humanoid mass of whirring chains, with a single, glowing red eye.

Ordon has taken to his charge with gusto. Those who abuse the law, those who defy their most solemn oaths, deserters and traitors, all of these find that the Chains of Ordon seek them out as eagerly as they did their first captive. They too will be dragged deep, deep beneath the mountain of red stone, and in the fires of Ordon’s cavern, they will be reborn, and made to serve.

All will be made to serve, with time. Ordon trust no oath, no mortal, not even the gods to keep their word. His old arrogance remains, merely recast, and he desires that all else be recast as well. But Ordon’s imprisonment has taught him patience. He will wait. He can afford to, after all.

He can wait for the end of time itself.

Looking at Moglin's domains and general description, Arathor seems like he'd be a suitable parent god. You'd have an evil monster as a progenitor, but if that doesn't bother you, the idea of the lord of wild beasts and savagery creating your God of Bloodlust makes sense.

[Snowfire]

So, I have a question.

If I jump us most of the way to space opera territory, how badly will people hurt me?

Added in a category separating the locations in the Underdark from the Locations on the Surface. Also added a dichotomy between the Maw and Pit of Madness. The Maw being the mountains on the surface, the Pit being the caverns beneath them.

If you want, PM me the information (On a table preferably, but if not I can make a table) and I'll edit it into the second post.

@ Draken: Would you be alright with Roads not being in the Underdark? I'd prefer for it to be kind of like THE frontier. No matter how civilized it gets, it's always wild and untamed.

I'd rather not get close to that yet, but I did have plans to eventually have the Vahnatai roam the planes in Squid-Like voidships.

[Gotham]

Maugan: Oh, Arathur done p-oed the wrong frostking. How shall the Order deal with this...


Hrm.


Oh, whats the process for societies learning open concepts? Just "and lo, they learned"

[Snowfire]

Oh, I wasn't going to give anyone starships this turn for a while. Just get the building blocks in place.

As well as those always fun building blocks for teaching the mortals how to fight back against the divine.

[Draken]

@Darklord

Roads in the underdark would just be tunnels trampled through by the hooves of Ing'dras' nameless mount.

It's not like any of these roads Ing'dras is making are <paved>. They are all just trails when it is all said done.

----

As for space opera jumping, Darklord has a point. We don't even have a decent number of settled civilizations to make void-travel needed.

I mean, the extant landbound civilizations have not even really met each other. What would be the point of going offworld to meet the dudes who haven't even had their society described yet.

[Maugan Ra]

That was, in part, his intention. He is, at heart, a wild beast - he's testing you, trying to gauge your worth through provocation. However you chose to react, just don't let Arathor sense weakness...

[TechnOkami]

Hey ladies and gents, I'm here, finally realized I can post here now. My color will be this, bold purple!

[Darklady2831]

@ Draken: Fair enough, that works for me. Though the trails through the Honeycomb would be very winding and twisting, it being an enormous maze and all.

EDIT: Also, someone has entered Arlom

[Gotham]

Maugan: You done been called out, son.

[C'nor]

I'll take on Planes, Races, and Lands. Which are now in tables up to Arathur's birth, with the exception that I skimmed ahead to when the Vahnati got a society, and Vylcent made The Green Sun.

Ing'dras actually made most wildlife and plantlife in the first asteroid before Arathur and The Marquis came and expanded on them.

Lands (also on the First Continent) is missing Ing'dras' roads and Arlom's cities!

Can you point me to that post, please? It seems like I missed it, but I can go back and edit it in to Races...

Also, those are further in than the point to which I've updated this, aren't they?

[Draken]

The wildlife and plantlife are part of the original creation of the land, which includes free create lifes for common animals and plants. I did not discriminate it as actions, but they are included in the description of the original creation.

Roads and cities are after the point you updated to, however, I will grant that.

[C'nor]

Ah, okay.

What sorts of life did Ing'dras make? Standard Earth-types, or something more exotic?

[Draken]

Just common animals and plants.
