The wheel has turned...

The cycles of creation see gods start close to their creation and very involved with the world, but as time goes on gods grow in power and vision and knowledge and most importantly DISTANCE from the worlds they create... eventually, they ascend into beings or forms not even known by the gods themselves, and leave a power vacuum in creation for new "pretender gods" to step into. This is an age where creatures and godlings from previous creations, dormant or imprisoned, or great people or beings throughout the world -- can vie to attain godhood in their own right.

Maybe the protagonists are entity imprisoned from a previous creation or dormant for ages, or suddenly or intentionally realize themselves as a "Pretender God" and must experiment or find their new powers and most importantly seek a following for belief in the pretender is what actually gives a true godling dominion. Clashing with other pretenders perhaps or allying them to be a part of your future pantheon.

...Now it is the start of a new era, for NEW gods.


Choose the form you walk among mortals as, and choose your monstrous or glorious true form. Band with other pretender gods and attempt to rise to power and become a new pantheon, or god of all -- Pantokrator. Face rival pretenders and vie with them for the faith and fear of the populace, secure elements and environments important to your domain to grow your power.


You are a GOD! However in a world of pretender gods can you rise to prominence and rule over all, banishing your rivals until the next age the wheel turns -- or are you another idol to be cast down in the struggle for dominion? FORGE YOUR DESTINY!


This game will use the forums for keeping track of gods and important events/resource management but will also have a strong real-time adventuring component on discord for people that desire real-time battles. There will be free-form use of dice (for combat, fate, and fortune), but no experience with dice systems is necessary to play.
Magic 90%
Magic is very common. Magic-tech, grand floating islands, forests that sing, magical creatures may be an every-day occurrence.
Technology 20%
Iron age
Combat 90%
The world IS war, but there may be RPs that don't feature it. Warhammer Fantasy/40k, etc.
Romance 00%
No romance at all will be included in this plot, period.

Details: Character sheets & strict mechanics, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred.

hello!

New to the site and hoping I get people interested in this fight heavy god-game.

I have a system for creating gods/characters that is involved (but fun, I promise!) and a custom dice system to handle combat.

Hope I find some players here!
