Deicide

IRC is /join #Deicide

Deicide is the act of god killing and that is what you aim to do. You will be playing from creation to apocalypse as a deity and either working with or against other deities for control of the universe. This game will be very IC driven and subjective, so very little rules. It is also a mini game meaning it will be short so expect a fast pace. Beyond that sign up and prepare to become the most powerful god in existence.​

Rules​

1. You will have 2 orders which can be about anything so long as you state what stats you want them to give, power or worshipers.
2. Worshipers are essentially mortals who bow down to you. For Example:
   • This number increases over time as population does but you may also increase them with some sort of sign or miracle.
   • You may also use conversion to gain followers and even state you wish to convert worshipers of another player.
   • It is also allowed to send out your worshipers, or a miracle to smite another player's worshipers.
   • Worshipers will be converted into power when the final battle commences.
   • Losing all your worshippers puts you out of game for one turn and you may no longer gather more worshipers.
3. Power is the most important resource because it is what will affect your fighting rolls during the final battle, and any number of things can expand your power. For Example:
   • You can expand your domain; terra form world to a degree or your plane of existence.
   • Create creatures or beings to serve and carry out your will.
   • Win minor battles or contests against other gods as a show of superiority.
4. Religions are a means to increase worshipers and spread power. Their type and form can be used to offer different bonuses.
   • Religion Types:
     • Proselytic- Easier to convert spread religion. More susceptible to conversion themselves.
     • Ethnic - More resistant to conversion. Harder to spread religion to others.
   • Religion Forms:
     • Polytheistic - Can form alliances with other polytheistic deities. Less powerful individually. Easier to convert other polytheistic religions.
     • Monotheistic - Can't ally with other deities. Very powerful on their own. Easier to convert other monotheistic religions.
5. Next are the perks gained from being a certain Deity Type. They are as follows:
   • Elemental - bonus to rolls dealing with their element. Weaker rolls on things not dealing with their element.
   • Formless - Has difficulty gaining followers, but upon losing followers can reappear elsewhere and continue gaining them. Harder to change environment; better at making beings.
   • Animalistic - Easier to make new life forms to draw followers to, living idols to worship. Creatures can add to power directly as things to use in final battle.
   • Anthropomorphic - Easier to change environment. Can gather followers faster. Harder to make beings.
6. Once we hit the apocalypse phase all worshipers and assets will be converted into power which will influence your rolls in the fighting. The fighting will go on until only one side is left standing as sole rulers of the universe.

Kirkun, Serene Prince of Order, Bringer of Null, Master of Void, Lord of the Stoic and of the Silence​

Deity Type: Formless
Religion Type: Proselytic
Religion Form: Monotheistic

Background:

In the Great Serenity, the All-Encompassing Nothing, the World was in perfect Order, this balance perfectly calculated and arbitrated by its creator - Kirkun. This pristine beauty was however shattered with the arrival of malicious forces - Chaos, Discord, and other assorted anarchies, themselves manifesting in the form of other beings who claimed power over the All-Encompassing Nothing. Though Kirkun would combat these forces, his attempts were in vain, as the very presence of this tainted forces would destroy the harmonious equilibrium of the World, change begetting change exponentially.

Kirkun has thus set forth a crusade, designed to restore Harmony and Order to this World, bending the chaos of the World to his will and filling them with the Serenity that was once omnipresent and hearkening the return of Order, forcefully if need be..

 

[Plank of Wood]

Name: Raez-Koth, the All-Seeing
Deity Type: Elemental
Religion Type: Proselytic
Religion Form: Polytheistic
Background:

Bursting forth from a long thought dead volcano, Raez-Koth took the form of a giant pillar of fire. This fiery apparition is made distinct by a vague shape that resembles an eye, but mortals and immortals alike fear to hold it's gaze for too long. Raez-Koth itself is unspeaking and almost unknowable, only clear in it's dedication to fire, and to spread it's burning vision across the known world, and to cover all ground that it can see in it's thick soot. Mortals either tremble before his might, or are compelled in Raez-Koth's goal in taking it's torch to the four corners of the world. All whom serve the forces of blindness shall bend to his will, or else face the same incineration that was given to those that resisted before.

There can be no darkness, for there is only the Eye.

Background:

Kozairu is the God of darkness, he obtained such a feat after killing his way to the top killing and consuming the formal rulers skull. Taking his powers and adding it to his own within his time he saw that the realm of darkness has been nothing but a mere shadow towards the ever blinding light that surrounds his realm. To fix such a thing he had to gain followers, followers that would bend to his will without question he couldn't trust demons to do what their told, but he knew that mortals would do anything he says as long as they are given an simple reward like their most inner desire, or untold rich's. "Without out darkness there can be no light!" Those words is what Kozairu will use for his campaign to spread darkness through the entire world, but he had to give his darkness a name or no one would follow him so he chose the name (The Followers of Yami)

The Dark One

Formless
Ethnic

The Dark One is the god of nightmares and dark ambition. Out of the infinite shadow he has spawned, born in darkness and defiler of the light. The Dark One has the power to corrupt the good and bend them to his will, indoctrinating the weak willed. By bending time and space, able to heed matter to his command, The Dark One has the power to form nightmarish dreamscape planes and spread his dark form into foreign realms. Like a shadow, silently he slithers, to realize the dark ambition of his own.​

[viola]

Name: The Unconquered Sun
Invincible Lord of Sunlight, Bearer of the Primordial Fire, Stronghold against the Darkness

Deity Type: Elemental
Religion Type: Proselytic
Religion Form: Monotheistic

Background: The Unconquered Sun is the Lord of Light, it was Him who lit the First Fire so that Life could grow out of the Darkness that engulfed the Primordial World. His followers proclaim that all Living Beings exist thanks to that one Spark of Life that the Sun released upon the World, and that it is His own Light that pushes away the Darkness of Chaos and Void, allowing the World we know to keep existing.

The Domains of the Unconquered Sun are characterized by strong, stable Theocratic States that organize the Cult of the Sun. The Sun empathize Order, Prosperity and Martial Valour against the "Creatures of Darkness" that hide from His Eternal Brightness. All lands touched by the Light of the Unconquered Sun become fertile, all men who submit to His Brilliance will find heat and warmth, Chaos and Madness are washed away by the Clarity of His Sight and all the dark enemies of Mankind are burned and forced into hiding by the mere contact with the Sun's Everlasting Light.

With the forces of Darkness once again rising against the Light the Unconquered Sun is preparing for the final battle, the one that He already knows will end with His triumph and ascension as the Light that will never have to set again.

The False One | The Curious One | The Ever Searching | Charles (is Charles a good name? I like Charles. Charles it is)​

Deity Type: Ethnic
Religion Type: Polytheistic
Religion Form: Anthropomorphic
Background: The False One does not how he was created, but had always (as of now) had an intense interest in knowing how that had happened. Actually, scratch that, he was now always interested in the actual act of creation. He was now the God of Ingenuity. God of Technology. God of Things that go Tick. That was a nice title. He should write it down. He should create writing. He needed to tell his followers to create writing for he can write groups of things (lets call it a list) so he can remember everything. Also what is this glowing thing on the back of my head ... no his head. Ah screw it, I'm a god, I'm going to write my own bio. It's not like this is just some game.
