death tribble Posted April 27, 2022 Report Share Posted April 27, 2022 Oh gawds, it's the World Creation SuperDraft 6! You are a god. We are building a new fantasy mythology from scratch. Working with all of the other gods, you are going to create a new world. The setting is completely blank. You will need to contribute your divine ideas to build the lands and populate them with a variety of life. Here's what you'll need in your divine portfolio. Domains of Influence. These are special realms of control and responsibility for which you are known and prayed to. You will have one primary domain and three secondary domains. Secondary domains can be a new area of influence or can recreate any of the other divine contributions (including Interference). Geography. You are the patron and builder of certain locales. It can be as broad as a continent or an ocean, or it can be as specific as a city. Sentient Life. Humans are not here by default. You can build entire races from scratch or offshoots of another race already created. (Example, God A creates centaurs. God B likes centaurs, too, so he builds an offshoot race, dark centaurs.) Gift to Civilization. Whomever the races may be, they are extremely primitive. As gods, you must guide them. Contribute skills or knowledge to the population. You can specify a particular people for your gift, which will make them the best at it, but it will spread to others. Flora or Fauna. Create one of the following, either a special plant or crop for the world OR a special animal or livestock for the world. You dictate use, danger, locality, power, etc. These can be real world things (roses, corn, horses, etc.) or mythic (walking trees, Audrey II, Godzilla, etc.) Interference. Bestow a Blessing or curse to an existing place or people. The gods were often family, working together. They were also competitive, and sometimes downright petty. This is your chance to enact your will upon a fellow gods' creation. Mythic Monster or Guardian. You have singular representation in the world, a special, magical creature, benevolent or deadly. This creature is unique, named, and intelligent. Round one will be your Primary Domain, but the rest can be selected in any order. You may not pick the same primary domain as you did last year IF you took part last year. There will be bonuses for previous players IF they pick a primary domain that they have not picked before. As with the previous years there is no link between this World and previous ones. So continues Log's grand experiment. We will begin Monday May 2nd, Five in the afternoon British Time which is Noon Eastern in the States. We take the weekends off. As before I've just copied the front page of last year and thanks to Log for all the hard work Logan D.

DShomshak Posted May 2, 2022 Report Share Posted May 2, 2022 This is kinda stupid of me, but I have three concepts I'd like to try (which I don't see how to merge). So I'll let other people decide which I take. Two of them involve defining the Shape of the World, so consider that as you vote which you'd like me to do. * The Lovers, God/Goddess/Nonbinary of Love. Plural, because Love exists only in relation to another; nameless, because the name and face of Love is the name and face of the one loved. Or hated. Love can be complicated, and often is not kind. * Tethras, God of the Sun and the Center. When Tethras emerged, His light drove back the Nonebefore and set the boundary of the World. All live in the hollow sphere of the World, with Tethras shining in the center. Blessed are the gifts of light and life, which come from Tethras. Honor and repay him with blood! * Etterskell, Goddess of Multiplicity. When the Gods shaped the World, Etterskell was supposed to add her part and pass it on to the next God. But, butterfingers, she dropped it and it broke. There are now seven suns and dozens of worldlets, swirling in a cloud. Fortunately, they don't collide very often. Etterskell divides greater wholes into lesser parts, and decrees that nothing shall be unique except by special creation of the Gods. Then too, if someone else realy wants to present a Love God, Sun God, or (less likely) Multiplicity God, I am willing to step aside and develop one of the others. Let me know which deity I should choose. Dean Shomshak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 "Creation was cast forth, but it was without purpose. Then, purpose for all was gifted upon us by the most high god- Xarn Tarsus! By his firm hand, the meaningless are given meaning, and that meaning to serve! Here is the first truth- it is better to live on thy knees in his shadow than stand and die in freedom's light." -Excerpt from The Sacred Truths of the Tyrant ***** Xarn Tarsus, God of Tyranny (You're welcome) assault 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
