This thread is also for roleplay, not just creating random things.
How characters work:
When you make your character, choose one domain from this list. Your domain gives you more power over whatever that domain is related to. When influencing the world around you to do something related to your domain, you are considered 2 divine ranks higher. For example, an earth domain demigod would have the powers of an intermediate god when creating something that involved the earth.
Domains:
Arcana Domain
Forge Domain
Grave Domain
Knowledge Domain
Life Domain
Light Domain
Wild Domain
Earth domain
Water domain
Fire domain
Wind domain
Order Domain
Peace Domain
Tempest Domain
Trickery Domain
Twilight Domain
War Domain
Decadence domain
Luck Domain
Monstrosity Domain
Revelry domain
Plague domain
Fear domain
Shadow domain
There are 5 divine ranks of power. Each god is in one of these categories, depending on how many followers they have. Each rank gives you special abilities. When influencing the environment in a way related to your domain, you are considered to be 2 divine ranks higher. For example, an earth domain Demigod would have the powers of an intermediate god when creating something like a mountain.
Demigod (0-100 followers)
you can change your appearance to look like anything you want to. You can teleport anywhere in the world 3 times a day. You can change and influence the environment in any way you want within 100 feet of you, creating, destroying. or moving anything you want, such as trees, buildings, natural materials, weapons, and other things. Some domains, like arcana and knowledge could also make spell effects, while domains like trickery, Order, and war could also create magical effects related to their domains. For example, an order domain god could create an enchantment spell effect, a war domain god could create an abjuration or evocation spell effect, and Trickery could create an illusion or enchantment effect. These effects don’t affect gods. If you don’t know what would be part of your domain, just ask. Anything you create cannot be bigger than a 20 foot cube. You can create 1 rare, uncommon, or common magic item by spending 1 minute creating it. You can spend 1 hour making a very rare or legendary magic item.
Minor god (100-1,000 followers)
as Demigod, but you can teleport at will and the radius for influencing the environment is 1 mile and anything you create can be up to a 100 foot cube. You can also spend a day to make an artifact. This artifact, if you have it on you while fighting, gives you a plus 2 to rolls for fighting gods. You can only have 1 artifact at a time. If a creature besides you uses the artifact, it only gains a plus 1 to fighting gods. You can create creatures up to CR8.
Intermediate god (1,000-10,000 followers) as Minor god, but the radius for influencing the environment is 10 miles and anything you create cannotbe bigger than a 1,000 cube. You can create creatures up to CR15, and you can have 2 domains now instead of 1
Greater god (10,000-100,000 followers) as Intermediate god, but the radius for influencing the environment is 100 miles and whatever you create cannot be bigger than a 1 mile cube. You can create creatures up to CR20
Overgod (100,000 or more followers)
As greater god, but the radius for influencing the environment is 1,000 miles andwhatever you create can be up to 5 miles, or 50 miles if it is related to your domain. You can create creatures of any CR, and you can now have 3 domains. There can only be 3 Overgods at any one time
As your characters are gods, they gain power based on how many followers they have. Once every 24 hours, you can choose to either gain followers, or convert someone else’s followers. When you gain followers, you gain followers depending on your alignment and your divine rank. During your first post, you must say your alignment. You cannot gain more followers than there are humans.
If you decide to convert the followers of another god, you gain half the amount you would otherwise, (or, if the god you are converting followers from has less than that, you gain the amount of followers they have,) and they lose the amount of followers you convert. You cannot convert followers from a god that is more than 2 divine ranks below you.
Gods can donate followers to other gods. The god donating chooses how many followers they are giving to another god of their choice. The god giving the followers loses that many followers and the person they are donating them to gains that many followers.
Divine Battles
Gods have a pool of dice that they use for fighting other gods. They have an amount of dice (D6s) equal to their divine rank. (example: demigods have 1, intermediate gods have 3, overgods have 5) when battling another god, you decide how many dice to use out of your pool. Both gods roll their dice, and whoever rolls higher wins. Battles decide who wins not just in combat, but also in scenarios where normal characters are rolling dice, like deception vs. insight, and stealth vs. perception. Gods gain all of their dice back every 24 hours.
Pantheons:
If 2 or more gods agree, they can form a pantheon. Pantheons grant all members an extra dice to use in combat, shared between them. If one god uses this dice, none of the others in the pantheon can use it until it is regained. In addition, they gain an extra amount of followers every time they gain or convert followers equal to 1 tenth of the amount of followers they already earn. Gods in a pantheon can give other gods in a pantheon divine battle dice, which disappear after 24 hours, and the god that gave them gets them back. Gods in a pantheon cannot steal the followers of another god in a pantheon.
Current Population- 10,000
The population of humans will increase every few IRL days and rules may be added or change. Have fun!
In your first post, put your god’s alignment, domain, and current appearance.
A graveyard filled with yellow autumn grass appears.
From a towering, cathedral-like tomb in its core comes a figure dressed in dark robes. Autumn leaves fall from the freshly sprouted trees, knocked down by a chill breeze, and form a carpet at its feet. A gilded cup forms in its hand.
This is Koszmar, The Hunger of Baal, God of Harvest and Hunger, Neutral Evil master of the Grave domain.
