Welcome to Dawn Of Divinity. In this game you play as Gods born from the blood of the Demiurge and the concepts it had consumed. Currently taking up to seven players. Will update on weekends and when I can on weekdays.
>Name:
>Domains: What you are God of. Take as many as you want.
>Fluff: Optional information about your God such as appearance, personality, what aspect of their domain they represent, etc.
Roll xd100 worst of x where x represents their number of domains. The determines your starting amount of ichor. Ichor is used for most actions. If you gain more ichor then your cap your cap will increase though you won't gain the extra ichor. For example if you have 56/58 ichor and gain 10 ichor you would have 58/66 ichor.

>Domains: Penance. Jealousy.
>Fluff: Smith is insecure and feels as if all his peers are superior to him in one way or another. For this self-identified wrongdoing, he inflicts harm on himself while simultaneously refining his intangible form until he’s confident he’s outperformed all his fellow gods whether possible or not.
If this doesn’t work lemme know. I pulled it out of my ass so it’s understandable if it doesn’t.

>Across the limitless cosmos, One Truth remains suzerain. Might makes right. The strong do what they will, the weak suffer what they must. Be the mighty cruel or righteous, the meek have no recourse to resist. This is unjust. Thus, this one must Lie. Gather strength that they can mantle the heavens and make a world anew- one where strength is meaningless and all are equal.

Name: Ohr
Domain: Light,Destruction,Purification
Fluff: A paradox,a blinding light that eats itself, endlessly destroying parts of itself in vain attempts at purification. Ohr is not a sphere, a cube or any kind of standard shape, it is simply a Light that hates and wishes to purify what it sees as impure, to reveal the sheer utter wrongness of creation and ''fix'' it.

Name: N'and
Domains: Arcane, Profane
Fluff: The god of hidden knowledge and open depravity. Crystal clear waters and pond scum. Often appears as a pig adorned by pearls.

>Name: Eaugolus
>Domains: Death, Recycling, Netcraft
>Fluff: At the edges of even this virgin universe, there existed detritus and waste. Paradoxical flotsam and artifacts leftover from the First Battle against the Demiurge. Marble, blasted violently away from the face of an impossible temple. Torn, threadbare robes of what shouldn't yet be silk. All of these would coalesce with the viscera of the ancient Demiurge, and form Eaugolus, new god of cycles. He ceaselessly combs through his titanic net with eight spindly arms while three eyes gaze ever-intently forward. Eaugolus enjoys long walks on the beach, and sifting through the rapidly-expanding ocean of inert things for useable mortal essence/matter.

The first drop of blood almost seems to embody the Demiurge's regret over the harm it must cause its maker. However the newly formed God quickly grows jealous as his next sibling forms. A drop of blood freezes. The emptiness of the void seemingly enhancing the lord of nothing's strength. An insectoid being forms next. Desiring peace yet knowing subconsciously that reality never has and likely never will know peace it lies to itself and says there is hope for existence. The blood of the God's can be describes as liquid light. As the next drop of ichor gains thought it chooses to, instead of taking form, focus on purifying itself. Discarding whatever it deems to be waste. Some of this waste falls into another drop of blood perverting and diluting the being. With pearls of power around its neck the corrupted hog God is born. A recently born being is drawn form the edges of the void to this place desiring to not allow what was discarded to simply vanish back into nothing. Catching what aspects he could and binding them with the closest drop of ichor the last diety in this part of the void is born.

You may now begin making actions. Creating things such as a star,a planet, or a divine servant cost 2 ichor. Most other actions such as performing miracles or creating mortals cost 1 ichor. Roll a 1d100 for every action. The roll receives a +10 for every Domain of yours that is related to the action. The roll gains +5 for every additional ichor spent on it. Currently no limit on the number of actions you can make.

>The moth god floated in the darkness, wings beating on an atmosphere that wasn't there. It gazed on the others, its father, its siblings, and it buzzed in concern. Some were stronger- none were like itself. There was danger here. The threat of strength enforcing injustice, but as at the moment of its creation, Zyyk lied to itself. It gazed on the darkness and knew that this could not endure. More, it should not endure.
>Zyyk spoke in a tongue that had no name, perhaps the first words ever uttered in this creation.
"Brothers! Sister! Or Sisters? We are in the midst of the void. There is no source of light. Worse, there is no hope of shadow. This must change..."
>The insect rubbed its forelegs together.
"Siblings! A conjecture! Let us combine our powers and put forth a lamp from the nothing! One finer and grander than any, save perhaps the Water-Whittled One, could on our own! I will start us off!"
>Zyyk funnels 3 Ichor into creating a vast, spherical presence of warmth and serenity, a center for a creation lacking landmarks. Zyyk hopes it will serve as fuel for a sun-furnace. If so, any sun in it should be a kind, loving thing. (Peace and Love are related, as this isn't a source of light, but a seed for it. Let me know if that's too abstract to call connected.)

>Seeing new opportunities to outgrow his peers, Smith creates two beings of draconic form in both senses of the word. The first he creates is Hatsuko, who with every breath she takes blows forward a fire of existence and births countless amounts of matter out into the void, readily filling it up and giving this void the tools it needs to create something spectacular.
Go, my first creation. Birth everything you can. Show them that you’re better than any other child of a god could hope to be.
(3 ichor spent on Hatsuko. I could probably asspull some way it’s related to jealousy but that’d take too much time.)
>The next creation that comes into existence from the cosmic hammer Smith wields is yet another dragon, far less appearanced like his sister is Fukushu, who was created with a burning hatred for the one who created him and being forced into existence. His purpose is to punish Smith for this sin by killing him, but since he is immortal the only thing he can do is hurt. As long as both of them exist, Smith will constantly be attacked in infinite ways by this self-inflicted punisher of hate which only serves to refine his form and make him grow ever stronger.
(Spending 3 ichor on Fukushu as well. They’re both divine servants so it’s only a single additional ichor. This one should hopefully be getting a +10 in penance.)

>Eaugolus took a moment to ponder, in the presence of his newfound siblings; much of them smaller than himself but burning brighter with primeval ichor. He knew right away that he could not engage with them in the flesh, his stores of ichor were too meager, his frame too immense, his labor too intensive. There was too much around him that needed to be returned, too much that needed to be allowed to to rest, and he considered the responsibility his. Absentmindedly while Eaugolus worked, a stray arm or two began to tug at his form until a loose cable had been pried free. It was promptly twisted into a new shape, and presented before Eaugolus' inspecting eye.
With 3 ichor, he attempts to breathe life into the Braided Proxy, repurposed from bits of his own body.

>The aggregation of light once more focused on its surroundings after it was done purifying itself. It gazed at its siblings and promptly felt utterly disgusted at most of these wretches. Wrong, wrong, wrong,wrong and beyond flawed. It's seething was interrupted by the Moth, an annoying little thing that existed to Lie, a flaw perhaps that the Lord of Light would excise later. For now it agreed that this dark void lacked in light, as it was the only luminous thing in this already cursed playground

>Ohr would simply shove a good chunk of its own radiance inside the seed, a light that would scorch and burn that which was impure, that which was wasteful. A light that would expand continually.(4 Ichor)(Trying to use both Light and Purification there)(+20 from domains and +10 from extra ichor?)

>Afterwards, it judged that it might require aid in its endeavor, as there was just so much FILTH already. With 5 ichor it would create a single massive create composed of a luminescent eye adorned with resplendent white wings that burn particles before they could stain them. It would call this creature Menake, and it would server as an enforcer of Ohr's will, made to be spread light and annihilate that which should NOT exist.(5 Ichor)(Light and Destruction, though I guess it could also have purity at the QM's discretion)(+20 from domains, +15 from extra ichor

Abruptly awakened from quiescence, Ginn decided to hide itself from the world, as the light encroached on all things it called home. Cutting a chunk of itself, it then divided that part into two, then divided it, then divided it, to infinity. Set to surround the hateful sun, this ocean swallows its light so that the abyss may lie undisturbed.

Observing its sibling create the sea, Ohr was left irritated that the most pure and least degenerate of its siblings, perhaps the only one that had very little wrong with it, was trying to hinder it. There was quite literally nothing purer than Emptiness, and Water(that which used to not exist until moments ago) held an instinctive quality in its mind as purificating in its most primordial form.As the Lord of not just Light, but also Purity and Destruction, they should've been aligned no?. It had to admit however, that as pure as Emptiness was, it was stagnant and counter to its own goal of spreading Light throughout this cosmos, and as much as Destruction could cast things into the void once more, it was much better as a tool of Change to accompagny Purity where it would fail.
Ohr felt wistfulness(It's second emotion in existence!) for the first time

As it looked upon the void the first words The Lord of Lies spoke were ironically ones of truth. It sought the aid of its siblings yet no reply came. Realizing it's work would have to be done alone it flaps it's wings and creates a sphere of warmth. As feeling of love radiates from the seed the Moth God despaired for while it had created a great hearth more would be needed to forge a truly radiant light. Suddenly, a bright light appears and pours itself into the sphere. As the light of Ohr fills it an oppressive heat is created that would surely burn any that got to close if the energy of Zyyk didn't capture the heat inside only allowing a comforting warmth to get out.
>The Cleansing Light: Choose and effect.
>Sunforge: when used to create a star or item made of light all ichor spent is treated as triple the amount. Has cooldown of turns equal to ichor spent.
>Purifying Radiance: Cause a God to take double damage from all combat for one turn. Zyyk and Ohr must agree on the target.

Having dealt with the darkness that filled the void Ohr turned its attention to purifying the realm. To help it with this task The God of light created a being whose very gaze burned almost as hot as the center of the light Ohr had just created.
>Menake: Choose an effect
>Burn: +10 to all combat roles
>Blinding Light: Cause a successful attack against you to do no damage once per turn.
>>5971150
The jealous God Smith quickly proves worthy of his name as he forges a breathing masterpiece that loyally follows him creating both material to craft with and the fire needed for a forge.
>Hatsuko: Once per turn add +5 to any act of creation

Next he tries to craft a creature to punish him for existing. Yet it's self hatred proves greater then his own as it immediately destroys itself. Again and again the celestial craftsman remakes the beast. With every swing of his hammer he makes its body tougher even as it rips itself apart. With one last swing he finishes his work. In the end he is missing more energy then he spent yet he hardly notices as he can only think one thing."Where did it go?"
>Fukushu: Universal law will steal ichor from a random God. The amount of ichor it takes increases each turn. Additional effects hidden for now.
>>5971175
The God of recycling waste no time in his duties as he crafts a being from his own body as he breathes life into it he finds to his surprise a greater spark of his was in it then he first realized.
>Braided Proxy: Choose an effect
>Walking Noose: Gain + 10 on all combat roles.
>Waste Knot: Whenever you destroy an object gain back all ichor instead of half.
>Capture Specialist: Gain +15 to all combat roles. Must wait two turns before consuming defeated Gods. Can turn on at the start or in the middle of combat. Once activated can't be turned off until the end of combat.

Disturbed by the newly formed light Ginn attempted to block out his light. The waves surrounded the light yet something unexpected occurred. When the shadows of the mightiest God clashed with the work of two neither miracle could overcome the divine truth of the other's existences. To prevent a paradox the light behaved abnormally. Skipping past the sea some how all surrounding it is illuminated yet within the waters it is pitch black except the very center where the light resides. Disappointed with their only partial success Ginn chooses to ensure the darkness it has created will remain creating a mighty serpent that dwells in the abyss.
>Randraumr: It receives a + 10 for anything it does within the The Firnamental Sea.
As all this occurred all the God's can't help but notice their power both restoring and growing weaker.

Rules updates.
Divine Servants: While High rolls allow them to provide their masters with bonuses based on the Domains their makers used, or all of them of none were used in their creation, their primary benefit is interacting with Realms and mortals without spending ichor.
Divine Realms: Required for the creation of mortals. The God or Gods who crafted them receive a bonus equal to ichor used to make them when interacting with the Realm.
Ichor Production: At the start of each turn a 1d20 is rolled to determine how much ichor the a Gods gain.
Ichor Strength: Each turn the bonus provided by extra strength goes down. Will stop decreasing when it reaches +1 bonus. Current bonus +4.

>Zyyk resisted the urge to touch it, but only just. The moth god rubs its forelegs, wings beating as it spins in orbit around the Firmamental Sea. Though only one of its siblings participated, the results were spectacular. It held limitless potential, which could bring peace to the whole of creation, or bring it screaming to war. Zyyk spoke once again.

"Brother. Lamplighter. Hear me and consider... This Cleansing Light is by sum of ichor, mostly yours, but it was my warmth which fueled the spark. It has surpassed all expectations. Even in the heart of darkness, it blazes with a radiant shine! It would be a waste to turn such beauty toward blunt violence."

>The moth paused.

"It would help neither of us. Instead, let us declare it a Sunforge, a crucible great and glorious! Lamplighter, if all of us were to pledge even a pittance of ichor, its flame would make a light like no other! It would bring the beautiful light to all corners yet unmade! Surely, you agree?"

>With his enchanted effigy still clutched in a solitary hand, Eaugolus pondered. While he sensed immense potential for harm and chaos in the future, it was not what he desired. Eaugolus regarded his newfound siblings, his bizarre new home with fondness; his primary motivation for preserving all he can in a frightening maelstrom of change. Finally, he imbued it with one last swell of life and sent it on it's way to the congregation of gods, bereft of an independent will but full of determination.
-Eaugolus chose [Waste Knot]: Manually deconstructed objects provide full Ichor refunds.
>The Proxy respectfully approached the artificial star of Zyyk and Ohr, presenting itself as the mouthpiece of their kin.
-"Brother Zyyk, your call has been heeded -- a contribution shall be made. The power of the Cycle shall be added to your creation, so that should ever its light be snuffed out, it would spring back twice as bright"
-3 Ichor (8 left) was channelled through the Proxy and into the Moth God's light, augmented by proximity to recycling (1d100+14).
>With his proxy sent on its way, Eaugolus also considered the new sea surrounding the sun. For better or worse, it appeared to be staying for good. Strongly, he felt, he should consider giving such territory his attention. It simply felt... right. With a powerful toss of his net, he snatched the entirety of his debris field, and with a world slung over his shoulder her travelled. Much of it was left molten and glasslike by the speed of his journey, settling into twisted, smooth shapes.
-Saddened by their apparent uselessness but intrigued by the new forms, Eaugolus spends an additional 4 Ichor (4 left) to attempt creating the Silver Line, a ghostly layer bisecting the upper and lower halves of Ginn's Firmament Sea (1d100+8).

>With the endless supply of matter that Hatsuko spews out with every exhale, Smith decides to put it to use. He casts his arms out as a net to catch all of the spread out dust of existence and gathers them in one place before crushing them together with his cosmic hammer until a small universe the size of his two hands is brought into existence. It is similar to its founder, constantly harming itself as planets crumble into eachother, galaxies devour one another, and black holes consume the matter as fast as Hatsuko can breathe out more of it. Of course, Smith has made this little universe an extension of himself, meaning that he can feel and is effected by each and every destructive action that takes place. Still, even with all the chaos and anarchy unfolding, there is potential. Potential for Smith to prove that he can create something more refined and detailed than any of the other gods.

"Oh, joyous occasion! Return to the Scraptrawler, little one, and tell him that I am excited to see his contribution to the whole! Perhaps his recycling could return heat to the blaze when it is spent? If it were more efficient, the lamp could be a light on all creation!"

>All creation... The peace-lover paused, contemplating the expansion of its inner self. The ichor had doubled its inner self, yet nearly half lay empty. That was no good. If Zyyk was to weave the deception of kindness across the cosmos, it must be scraped hollow!

>The moth god pondered the Cleansing Light. It was magnificent but the surrounding sea was no less so. Zyyk contemplated Ginn. He was a leviathan, powerful beyond all, but his emptiness drew the liar's attention. There was a stillness there, and a kind of peace. Such darkness filled the waters, yet the light ignored them. The Tidecarver must have been disappointed.

>This saddened Zyyk, as the strongest of its siblings was agitated by the lamp which was part, its own responsibility. The moth reasoned that it was not too late. Amends might yet be made. Zyyk approached the expanse, careful to avoid disturbing it with direct contact, and began to shake its wings. Fine dust fell on the waters and in an instant, dissolved. The essence of peace filled the sea, calming crashing motion. Now, it would be more still and, Zyyk hoped, emptiness would resound.

''I think I shall claim this holy creation, for it is most aligned with me, but you are most welcome to bathe in its light sibling, I am sure it would scour away your little lies like the one you have just told me.'' It paused

''But while a Purifying Radiance to scour our filthier siblings would indeed be useful, I did not invest my power for the sole sake of destruction. I agree that it would serve a better purpose as a Sunforge.''

>That said, with the sunforge it decides to forge a weapon, for it felt it might need one in the future and could sense the strength of its ichor gradually leaving. It would concentrate solid light in the form of a spear, imbuing the head with the innate power of entropy, the attribute of unmaking itself.(Light and Destruction on the spear for a +20, +28 from ichor in sunforge I think, 3 ichor spent)
>Next, Ohr would be interrupted from its water-boiling seething(despite the fact that the sea would just reform instantly) when it noticed that its Light somehow bypassed the whole ocean to illuminate the entire void despite the water itself being in pitch darkness. Inspired, it remembered one of the FUNDAMENTAL qualities of photons and so decreed:
''And Lo, for nothing shall travel or move as Light does, instantaneous,absolute and unbounded. For Light is the limit of causality and to break it would be to break this reality itself''
>Create Universal Law to establish the speed of light as absolute and beyond anything by virtue of it being light and linked to causality, with the added clause of it being so rigid that breaking this rule and destroying both the spirit and written form of it would bring....consequences(Light + Destruction again for +20,4 Ichor)

After the last of its hesitation escaped its maw, the work called to it.

>The insect floated, keeping a healthy distance from the Hateful Light. He held a deep disdain for everything that was not itself and was blinded by his own malice. Already, he perverted their work toward ends of slaughter and if the Lord of Lies had tear ducts, it would have wept for the loss. Once the Sunforge was lit in earnest, Zyyk flinched in dread of what it had created.

"Claim the Sunforge you may, I won't contest it. Even so, in forging a blade you squander its potential. The innocence of the lamp is gone, its purpose wrenched toward ruin by your radiance. You will not reconsider this, but I beg of you, hesitate to wield your spear. How much brighter would this void be if we dedicated ourselves to a lasting peace?"

>>5972081
>At this, Zyyk turned and left Ohr to his own devices. Already, it had passed through the sea without skimming the water in the slightest. Now, it left the cosmic ensemble entirely, flying until it reached a point of the void like any other. Here, the light was dim and gentle, but its presence held the void at bay. Fertile soil. The moth god's forelegs burst into motion, gathering up the dust from its wingbeats, melding the specks together, and weaving from them a strand of silk. It began to assemble a web, vast and beautiful. Its divinity was stretched thin by the act, until the structure was visible in the void and with weight enough to be caught in orbit.

>This was the earliest realm. An artificial web, its sprawling surface would neither catch nor stick to any limbs. Instead, it was soft and gentle. Above, thin filaments of gossamer formed an intricate latticework, intercepting light and adding a kind warmth where there before, there was only purifying wrath. Below, the land consisted of valleys and ridges, tunnels and hills- all made with an eye for beauty and ease of travel. This was a thing made with love, of a calm so profound, violence would be difficult to think. There was a sinister tint to it, in that its smell and nascent atmosphere were primed to relax and set those upon it at ease, while choking those hostile with feelings of guilt. Once this was done, Zyyk pushed it into a slow, distant orbit around the Cleansing Light.

"It is my hope we can protect those who are to come, in time. As gods, we owe it to not-yet-extent lesser life to make them happy and safe. If you agree, I welcome you to join in my work. If you do not, I hope we can stir a calm sentiment by example."

Not all was dedicated to the pursuit. Bits and pieces of ice and string thrown about through passagemaking and runecarving clumped together. When it left, the Osso spent their time fashioning these things into figures of the master, cutting themselves into more of themselves and basking in the darkness. Only in the flashes of burning light left in the cutting's forging would their selves be defined, introduced to something so abhorrent to their world.

Judging them to be worth preserving, he sent the Braided Proxy down to them in order to teach the Enso the godly practices of weaving and net-casting. With that responsibility set aside and the colossal net once again draped over his shoulders, Eaugolus dutifully began his vigil and march over and through the Firnament Sea, allowing his tool of trade to drag behind him. "Perhaps," he thought lazily to himself, "I should improve my net sometime soon."

"If you believe any utterance to pass my proboscis, let it be this. I love you, Lamplighter, just as I love each and every one of our peers. This is unconditional, given freely, without hesitation or reservation. Be it that my desire is to lie, it is in my nature to love.

Speaking through his Proxy Eaugolus tells the Moth God of his decision to imbue the Cleansing Light with the ability to restore itself upon it's destruction by using the diving energy that passively exist in the universe. Due to this energy not being filtered through Gods the light will almost certainly burn brighter after destruction then before.
>The Cleansing Light gains new effect. Takes two actions to destroy. Will still give ichor after first destruction action.

Feeling drawn to the newly formed sea the God of nets approached it at great speed, accidentally destroying much of the debris he had acquired. Not one to let anything go to waste he used the molten remains to split the sea in half.

The penitent God forges a small universe that endlessly destroys itself. He also links this realm to himself so he may feel all the destruction it endures down to the cracking of the smallest stone. Ironically this place that seems almost uninhabitable is the first to naturally produce mortals. These draconian creatures have incredibly durable eggs capable of remaing intact even as the chunks of the planet they are buried in are blown apart by meteors and other planets crashing into it. The eggs only hatch in atmospheres they are capable of surviving so after planetery destruction they remain dormant until the meteor they are in strikes a suitable planet. The species rarely advances far technological or culturally before their planets destruction but their durable eggs keep their species alive and allow them to spread far throughout their galaxy.

The empty one gifted it's abyss with intelligence to further protect it's realm from the light. It then turns it attention to the net that had been cast into it's sea by Eaugolus and freezes the water between it. Carving mighty runes of command into the ice that power themselves by leeching off the divine power that radiates from the net the God of waters gains absolute power over the sea. Surprisingly the abyss's master and Ohr reach an accord with Ginn being gifted light with which it uses to create twin tools of cataclysm sheathed in darkness so the light wouldn't constantly disturb their wielder and so none can sense their power until unsheathed. Meanwhile, Ginn's newest pet creates people of ice and string to dwell within it.

Rules Updates.
Mortals: Must be in a divine realm. Provide half the ichor used to form them rounded down to their primary God which is the God that made them by default. Their secondary God gains half the ichor the primary God gains. Tertiary God gains half the secondary God's ichor and so on and so forth. No limit to the number of Gods they can worship. If the primary God is killed the secondary God becomes the primary God. If their is no secondary God then the one that consumes them becomes the primary God. Particularly high rolls to create Divine Realms will lead to naturally occurring mortals. These will be treated as if they were created with half their divine Realm's ichor.
Divine Weapons: Provide a bonus to combat equal to half the ichor used to make them in combat.
Universal Laws: These are indisputable facts of the universe. If only slightly altering or enhancing something that is already true such as light being the fastest thing in existence it cost 3 ichor. When causing more radical changes such as making death only possible via hanging it cost 6 ichor. The law must be be related to at least one of the domains of the God that makes it.
New Players: Whenever I allow more players their God gets a +5 from extra ichor that decreases each turn just like the initial players did.

>The First Deceiver witnessed the first flare of the Sunforge along with the glow of the Radiant Spear in its heart, and fidgeted in trepidation. This promised to be a terror of terrors, and yet, in Ohr's impatience, it came out too hot, too wild to be wielded. A disappointment to some, a relief to others. Zyyk's jittering forelegs lowered, as it paused and considered the lesson to be learned.

>Rushing to fulfill its vision could only lead to folly. The moth god's power was weak, its siblings strong and numerous. Already, they fell over themselves to craft weapons and amass servants to aid them in battle. Sooner or later, strife would consume the cosmos. The Peace-Lover lamented this, but thought that perhaps the conflict need not be total. Perhaps its work could be spared. Perhaps... made safer, warmer, softer... It muttered to itself, delirious with dread.

"Yes... the Silknest is not yet fit for little ones."

>The outer weave must be thickened, the inner weave, softed, its valleys, padded, its clouds, becalmed. The realm was filled with clear streams, too shallow to drown in, calm forests, too open to be lost in, and more.

Not all of the Demiurge's blood had been large enough to immediately take godly forms. Much smaller drops are scattered throughout the void slowly gathering together until enough gather to make new Gods. The blood that would eventually become Ashkur was unknowingly trapped within the Cleansing Light when it was formed. Unable to form due to it's great heat the God remained trapped until Ohr formed his spear. Accidently pulling some of the ichor caught inside the light out with his weapon. Perhaps had this being formed normally it would have been a great source of good but now he carries the heat that once trapped him and a desire to never be imprisoned again.

The Arcane God's pearls glow as he creates a shield of pure mana in front of him stopping the attack. However it may have been wiser to simply endure the attack for, as had been recently established, being faster then light invites calamity. He pours too much energy into his pearls causing a great explosion that shakes the void. The pig's corpse still bearing a horrible grin as death claimed him before he had even realized his mistake.
-N'and -17/16 ichor
When reduced to negative ichor Gods die or fall unconscious. They can recover from either state once they have at least 0 ichor. While dead or unconscious other God's can take an action to absorb them.

While the snake rests against its master's corpse, the darkness was not as content in grieving. They had their charges and they know of the master's other wish, wasted to create them. And so, they whispered.

Lord, may I ask you a mercy? My master wished for an end to your light, but that was second to a more primal want. It wished for a shelter to the darkness, a home for it.

I know that is anathema to you, but can you let the sea follow your light and spread throughout creation to chase it? Annihilate my master, my brother and me if you wish, but please, take care of the mortals under my protection.[/spoiler

Ashkur could feel the energy of the domain flow through him. What little conciousness that remained of Gin screamed in agony as he burned it alive forging it into something stronger. War, Wrath, Fire, and Subjugation were all the domains he held. His very nature was destructive like a volcano rushing over an island he would burn through the world. Yet he knew that the most important aspect of his being was not the chaos he could bring, but the new creation that would come after. While suffering may hurt temporarily it often makes one stronger as they grow better. His creations would the harshness of the world, but through their pain would grow.

Fearing the dangers that would soon come to pass the God of Peace focused on ensuring their realm was as safe as possible.

Meanwhile the first clash of the divine occurred as Ohr sought to eliminate the God of the Profane. While successful they were unable to claim his energy due to the sudden betrayal by the God they had shared their light with. The battle between the maker of light and the preserver of darkness was long and difficult with both Gods being pushed to their limits but in the end Ohr emerged victorious. As they were consuming Ginn a newly emerged God named Ashkur roared at them demanding they leave the sea alone for it was his. Not wanting to give up their kill but also being weary of the God which still had ichor dripping from his teeth from when he ate the fallen Arcane God Ohr offered him the Domain of carving.

Ohr was approached by Osso who begged them to not harm the mortals that dwelt in the sea. In exchange the living darkness swore to serve the God of light and convinced it's sibling and mortals to do the same. After this Ohr collapsed into themselves becoming a being of both light and shadow.

As these conflicts occurred other God's Choose to create. Smith created a divine blade to defend himself if he ever had to face danger himself. For similar reasons the lord of cycles weaved a new net from his old one. Even Ashkur crafted mighty chains, fearful of what was to come.

Meanwhile the inactive God Witch begins to act creating a great swamp to inhabit and growing a tree that corrupts all who partake of its fruit.
>Zaqqum: any God can spend as much ichor as they want to grow and eat one of its fruit. Upon consumption gain a bonus equal to the ichor spent on the fruit for all rolls that turn or the next if eating is the only or last action done that turn.

>From the confines of the Silknest, the moth watched all that transpired. Ohr, first to pitch in part of himself to a greater whole, had gone mad with purification. Even before his aberration had finished cooling from the forging, he attacked the swine with intent to feast on his blood! The hog had done nothing but enjoy peace and quiet, and he was slain for it! Then, before the body cooled, Ginn rose up to stab Ohr in the back with all the rage of a typhoon!

>The two struggled, but the Lamplighter's frenzy prevailed and he cut him down. In mere moments, Ohr murdered the weakest and strongest of gods, and now sought to debase himself with cannibalism. This was terrible, then another emerged from the Sunforge, a new god, rendered molten and cruel by the heat... heat which Ohr and Zyyk were responsible for. In an instant of his emergence, he demanded the hog's bacon and lion's share of the Tidecarver. Ohr complied with poor N'and, and haggled on fallen Ginn, giving only his tools, which the burning one, Ashkur, snatched greedily.

>Their horrible feasting echoed through the cosmos, and so too, did the violence. Despite the First Deceiver's best efforts to lead its siblings from strife, war had come to creation, and it would never be the same. The pristine darkness was now stained with blood. Zyyk felt dread grip its heart in a vise, and the sight of the others forging weapons in turn horrified it beyond reason. The moth panicked, falling into a riot of weaving and threading and molding...

"No-no-no... too much suffering... too much misery... the Silknest must be spared of strife... must be made safer... softer... almost there...."

>Zyyk spends 9 ichor to bring the Silknest to 20 ichor. By now, it is a cornucopia of plenty, where violence is almost impossible to think of, let alone act on, and the entire ecosystem has been carefully tailoured to be as beautiful and harmless as possible. At its most fundamental, it is a falsehood, a cage of happy lies from which there can be no escape.

During the time when blood is first spilt among Gods the universe tries to balances itself by bringing forth a being of life. While the recent bloodshed has caused it to be born weak it remains to be seen if they will be but a brief season or if they will grow to be worthy of the crown they were born with.

>>5982620
Spinning into being, The Season of Crowns flexes its tremendous raw cosmic might, only to notice (to some small amount of distress) that it appears woefully inadequate compared to its fellows. In some ways, even lesser than the servants of its sibling gods. No matter.

With a mustering of courage and unearned optimism, The Season of Crowns announces its birth to the great and mighty (in comparison) gods of the cosmos, despite the lingering smell of ichor staining the void.

>"I am honoured, siblings. Allow me into your embrace."

A pair of curious responses from two elder deities give The Season of Crowns some hope for the near future.

The Season of Crowns meets Ohr first, swimming through the void to flicker into being in the realm of light.

Here in this place, The Season of Crowns summons up a seed, split into two halves. Cast down from its palm(?) one half-seed grows, sprouting into a great and mighty bundle of coiled roots that thicken and sprout into an entire planet before long.

Upon this realm oceans of dew form, and in these oceans mortal life may grow, semi-aquatic jellyfish people who harvest the fruits that grow on the surface and take them down to the shallow seabed where they may soon form crafts of coral.

Once done, The Season of Crowns visits upon Zykk, unleashing the second seed from its palm. Mostly air, this is a loose and spacious domain of gently floating plates connected by the fibrous branches of the world-seed at the planets heart. A world of great gusts and gliding leaves, this is a lighter sister-world compared to its far bulkier sibling.

Here, a fuzzy race of communal, diminutive critters is shaped, with stubby arms and unending optimism, they might spread from their home-plate and adventure every branch of this realm. They are nearly light enough to float, after all.

The first world is named Abza, the second is entitled Lungu.
The jellyfish people are bestowed as "Namma", and lastly the fuzzy critters are named the "Lammn".

As a final effort, the Season of Crowns bestows a miracle upon itself, using its influence over life to attempt to encourage its own growth into a bigger, stronger god.

>Upon the conclusion of the Silknest, Zyyk watched the creation and despaired. Their sister, the Cursemaker, allowed her soul to curdle with envy and made a horrid, corrupting fruit. This was better than another one of those ghastly weapon, but then, no sooner than its roots had buried, the Lord of Torture snatched the most rotten from its gnarled branches, sank his teeth into it, and then turned on the Smith! This was dreadful! Terrible! Horrible!

>More than that, it was terrifying. The First Deceiver considered the implications. Already, Ohr and Ashkur had proven themselves to be violent beyond reason. They were as strong as they were hungry for power, and Zyyk couldn't resist them. No, their limbs were too weak, their heart too soft, and even then, the Peace-Lover would never dream of striking another! Yet they would inevitably turn their attention to Zyyk's Silknest. It was the safest of realms for mortals, but it was vulnerable to the other gods. This would not do, it would not do at all...

>Trying to understand how the warmongers thought, Zyyk turned themselves to an entirely new type of weaving. Slowly, subtly, the Silknest was surrounded in a web of deceit and falsehood, of comfortable thoughts and placid forgetfulness. If one came to it with the intention to do violence, they would be stricken by mist and mirages, lost in a labyrinth of sights and sounds that weren't real and never would be, until they stumbled back into the void they came through. Untouched, unharmed, and, Zyyk hoped, with shame for their actions.

Will you join me in feasting on the Lamplighter, or are you a kinder soul than I? I will leave this choice to you and to you alone.

What a fight. Despite the confusion, it was kino. Well played, Ashkur.

>>5985453
Yea GG man it was a really close fight.

Ashkur would look upon the carnage he unfolded and be taken aback. The god of war and wrath he had let his rage blind him. While he emerged victorious the cost was great. No, to survive he couldn't just be a conqueror he needed to be a king with a kingdom. And all great kings have a woman by their side. He would bellow to Raimera "I have slain your greatest foe and the smith. I offer you to share in the smith's corpse with me for a formal alliance and to allow me to stay in your garden.

Like a God it's combat dice is based on the ichor it has. If defeated the God becomes the new owner and gains the ichor it has. It can only be challenged once per turn. One effect still hidden.
Also for clarification since I think their may have been some confusion it has been stealing ichor since it was made. If you check its ichor levels you'll see it has grown 5 ichor since it was made.

>As if bleeding into reality, the Braided Proxy appeared between the conversing gods of life and lies, hovering over the shattered, flickering storm-corpse of what Eaugolus knew as his elder brother, Ohr the Bale-Star.
-"It is not necessary to consume our brother; to annihilate him in his entirety. I should not wish it so;. Further interference with the battle may yet save our weakened, vengeful siblings, if we only band together to halt their battle and exhaust them. I speak to you, Dreamer and Lifegiver. Perhaps all of our powers in combination can piece something better back together."
>The Proxy turned to Zyyk, before unleashing a low, mournful ring.

>>5985440
>For the first time, Eaugolus feels compelled to leave the comfort and security of his collection, no longer with peace on his mind. Not only did he fear for the safety of his things, of his siblings, but he feared that Ashkur's nightmarish rampage would bring about an equally hideous flood of waste, trashing up his nets with the agony of untimely and early departures. T'would not be tolerated. At a speed beyond speed, Eaugolus clutched his net in eight great hands and travelled to the site of Smith's demise, discovering the god of Subjugation at the edge of consciousness.
-"Let it be known that I do not stand in judgement of you, sibling, just as I do not stand in judgement of any of other. But I would admit, you concern me. You are vulnerable, much more than myself. I do not believe there is much more that needs to be said. I would leave you to create and violate as you please, but you will leave the realms of nests and nets alone. Are my terms clear?"

Ashkur still wounded from his battles would respond "I can agree to that as long as you make no moves to attempt to kill me."

Sensing a presence watching him from a place not even he can see Ashkur roars out a challenge. The impossible dragon manifest before him and lunges at him but is immediately destroyed by blasphemous flames born from the witches fruit mixing with Ashkurs power. As he drinks in the ichor the beast itself vanishes seeming to meld with the void.
Meanwhile in a part of the void beyond the gods a hand that is all hands pats the snout of the recently destroyed beast. "Don't worry my friend you'll have your chance for a good fight in time." Spoke a thunderously silent voice. Fukushu just nips at the Demiurge's finger before wandering deeper into nothing and everything.

"Grandest of Scavengers, if I do not consume the Lamplighter here and now, further bloodshed is inevitable. If you wish to pry the body from I and the Crownbearer, you may make the effort, but I shall not hand him over."

>It raised a hand to its face, sobbing.

"Why must you all fight so? Why!? Ever since our births, you have thirsted for blood! Death! The DESTRUCTION that comprises your orb! Enough! ENOUGH! I will make your pain end, Lamplighter... I will end your shining crusade as it begins, and I will make a creation you would find joyous and worthy of praise."

>Immediately, the death god relaxed, allowing his net to once again fall behind him.
-"Then an accord is made. Fare well, second god of the Trial."
>Sensing need elsewhere, Eaugolus travelled once more to the Silknest, where his Proxy hovered over the mournful scene. He took it in one hand, and knelt over her, extending another arm in a gesture of consolation.
-"Death is only natural, you know that as well as I. You also know that this is one that can be prevented. Look -- his light is so dim and cold now, it is almost burnt out. His harsh edge is gone forever, not even we could bring it back. With patience, there is redemption to be found here. There is redemption to be found in every piece of everything."

>The First Deceiver fidgeted, strands of divine veins in its fingers, and sighed.

"Are you so certain, Netweaver? Our brother was... is bellicose, a warmonger who thinks nothing of peace that does not serve his ends. Calm is meaningless in his sight- a trifle to be shattered when it does not suit his will. What would you have me do, carve his substance into twain? Reduce his divine will to so much glowing vapour? He is a god! A god of war, and hate, and the beauty he fought for. I want to take that beauty and... preserve it. To make something good from his legacy, pure, as he would've wanted. What do you desire? Truly, tell me... I am not beyond reason."

>>5985525
-"Violent though he was, he lashed out only in defense of all he thought good; a protector at his core. If such a quality could only be nurtured, drawn out... If we must lie to his heart to save him, then we shall. Surely one such as you would know the importance of denying one's truth in order to guarantee safety. Alternatively, should you wish, peace may be enforced through other means, restrictions impressed upon the skin of reality itself. I doubt many of us have the strength for such an exercise, however."

>>5985542
>>5985509
>The moth paused at his words, contemplating.

"...though it pains me, you speak true. The Lamplighter's aspect of Destruction is a portent of dread to this and all future realms. It has urged him to violence, time and again. I do not want to kill. I never wanted to kill... Let us take this Destruction from him, and feed it to the Crownbearer, smallest among us. In the short time he has been here, he has shown himself a wise and kind godling. I believe would use it well."

>Zyyk knelt, begin to carve at the blazing center of the fallen god, and spoke to both deities assembled.

"If we do this- excise the Destruction, that it may be tempered and remade in Life, and swear the Lamplighter to peace with the Burning Tyrant and Cursemaker, for at least a time... I will forswear the Eclipse Daggers and nurse him back to health myself. This I swear, upon the very crux of Deceit. What say you, merciful brothers of mine?"

After a long day of hard work planting her tree Raimerea woke up to the sight of a battered, burning dog in front of her swamp. it held within it's jaw the corpse of an unknown god. the dog yelped loudly, telling stories about how it killed this one because she hated him and that he did this for her sake. the witch didn't even recognize this god. she hated everyone equally.

the dog wagged it's tail, seemingly wanting to be praised and adopted.

"Brother, do you think it would be expedient to more thoroughly bind the Lamplighter? It is my hope that transferring the aspect of Destruction alone will suffice, but if this bloodlust proves inherent to the Kugelblitzer, it may fall short. What say you we lay chains about his essence? A temporary measure, meant to keep him safe, as well as any of us. I would pledge all of my ichor that remains to such a cause."

>Zyyk proposes laying a binding on Ohr: preventing him from attacking another god for 5 turns, and offers to spend 4 ichor on it.

Ashkur wiping his face from the gruesome dinner with his corrupt mistress would look upon her realm. A piece of beauty in the barren wasteland of a cosmos. Yet this reminded him of what he lacked. His ichor the very force of his own life had been stolen by him by the betrayer and now the nestlings seems to revive him? Nay he would get back what was rightfully his and take his shit.


Ashkur would shout “Give me the ichor I’m owed. The betrayer stole 26 of mine so I request 26 worth of his artifacts and belongings. I will not be stolen from. In addition I will not stand to have the betrayer attack the apple of my eye. Restrain him with some divine law soon or face my fury.

The Sunforge was the work of my hands as well as his own, though as he wronged you, he wronged me in seizing it for himself alone. I propose that we keep the Sunforge cool while we gather our strengths and then, funnel all of our powers into one final creation by its radiance. Something that will benefit us each in turn... A Throne of Light, and Fire, and Deception, and all the powers of the creation yet to be made."

Ashkur would expand the swamp which would slowly transition into an arid plain where frequent wildfires were common. It is in this land where he would create his first subjects the Arakai. The Arakai are a series of fire elementals born from their desire for fire to spread across the world. They have a body similar to that of a small humanoid and are composed of molten metal which is always in a semi-liquid state. They consume food like a normal creature, but rather than process its components they burn it for energy. They are extremely violent always attempting to bully those weaker than themselves and are quick to anger in violent outbursts. They practice a form of ritual torture as punishment for breaking laws. The groups of Arakai frequently go to war over the smallest of transgressions which often leads to more war over the effects of the conflict in a never-ending cycle of violence. The flames produced both by the Arakai and the wildfires would be green like Ashkur's flames.

First they head to the sea, perhaps instinctively drawn to it as oceans are the birth place of most naturally occurring life, and create the Reef Moon, Abza, home of the Namma race. These jellyfish like people often travel and forth between the land and sea however they avoid the deepest parts of their home for this is a realm where life grows particularly quickly and in a land of excelerated evolution monsters are quick to be born. Heading to the Silknest they make the Gale Moon Lungu where the Lammn race spend their lives peacefully floating on the never-ending breeze. Lastly they reach into their own life force and attempt to enhance their own growth. Sensing the flow of ichor they know it is possible but whether they are strong enough to do it they are less certain.
>Abza: Random events involving monsters or beast have an increased chance of occurring in this realm.
>Godly Growth: Gain an additional 3 ichor each turn. I have decided that influencing something like this would be a 6i law. Since this hadn't been established when this was posted I'll allow you to either spend the remaining 5 ichor and get this or you can be refunded the 1 ichor and have to reroll if you attempt this again. The choice doesn't have to be immediately made.

Seeing the newborn God of life makes Eaugolus realize he has neglected to care for the dead and so he begins gathering their souls in to the realm he now calls home. The Enso sense something different about the currents.
>Silver Scaffold: Mortals in the realm Eaugolus calls home provide him 1.5x the ichor they normally would.

Meanwhile Ashkur eats one of the witch's fruit and attacks Smith just as he finished crafting a shield. Witnessing this the God of peace enchants their home fearing it will be the next place to be attacked.
>Silknest: can provide a combat bonus equal to it's ichor but when activated the attacker cannot be brought to below zero ichor. Upon being brought to zero the attacker can no longer attack or be attacked that turn. Can be activated at any time but cannot be deactivated until the end of combat.

As Smith and Ashkur clash the God of Purification decides to punish the burning one for willingly corrupting himself however the war God responds with a surprising amount of force. His body is taken by Zyyk and Season of Crowns who debate what needs to be done. Meanwhile after a close battle the jealous God is slain.
>You have consumed Penance. Destroy it to gain 5 ichor, spend 5 ichor to keep or alter it, or take one of the following for free. Improvement, Punishment, or Suicide Attacks.

Ashkur, having fallen in love with the Lady of Rot, brings the corpse to her and offers her the domain of Jealousy. Seeing him as a useful guard dog she accepts his gift and makes him a leash.
>God Leash: Only provides bonus when wearer is considered Raimirea's ally/slave.

She then begins to craft her garden filled with vines and swamp flowers. From these she crafts her first mortals. The Manikin dutifully protect the garden though being naturally creatures of rot their growth is limited.
>You have consumed Jealousy. See the above paragraph to know what you can do. Your free options are Self-loathing, Desire, or Resentment
>Swamp Garden. Since this is the first sacred site I'll let you retroactively choose what type you want it to be. Check rules Updates for explanation.
>Manikin: Only grow at a rate of 1i per turn.

Within the Swamp Askur makes his first mortals.

Eaugolus convinces his siblings not to eat Ohr and manages to create a peace agreement between them and Ashkur. First they alter the sunforge for they fear its power is to great. Then they place a binding on Ohr ensuring they will be unable to harm Ashkur or any others for a while.
>Sunforge: when used to craft Weapons will only provide a single additional ichor.
>Ohr's Binding: Ohr may not start a combat unless defending themself or others from 5 turns.

However just to be safe Season of Crowns is fed the domain of Destruction. Not wanting to risk loosing anothers master Osso aids them in this endeavor. Briefly becoming one with Season's shadow the God is filled with an overwhelming hunger but they manage to ignore it. The Osso's ability to consume light enhanced by being one with the divine allows them to carve the domain out like using a scalpel instead of just ripping it out.
>You have consumed Destruction. Your free options are Monsters, Hunting, and Consumption.

Vivashalie can't help bit feel nervous as she and her father travel deeper into the Reef. She understood why gathering the sacred coral was important but the disappearances of the other coral gathers left her feeling frightened as no one knew what was causing it. When she spotted a peace of glowing coral she turned to her father to alert him only to witness what had seemed to be part of the Reef lunge forward and bite him in half. She swam as fast as she could trying to get away but she wasn't quite fast enough and felt one of her tentacles get caught by it's jaws. Pulling with all her strength she felt her limb ripping off but she ignored the pain and kept moving. Squeeze into the small tunnel she and her father had left fron only then did she look back. She saw the beast lay down and despite looking right at it she could barely tell it's form apart from the coral reef.
>Reef Hound: A monster is hunting on Abza. Will reduce ichor growth by 1 if not dealt with. 1 turn threat.

Ashkur would approach the newly born god to recruit him but would begin to salivate at the mouth. His domains of fire, war, and wrath urged him to burn the bones of this god-like tinder for his inferno. He couldn't resist his more animalistic urges the power he could gain was too great a temptation. His mind had to come up with a justification for what he would do. While he may want to be a king, the power he wields is what will ultimately give him the authority to rule. At least that's what he would tell himself as gorged on the flesh of the newlyborn.

>Sensing the inception of a new deity even frailer than the last, Zyyk sighed. Considering the dangers beyond the Silknest, they put together a wisp of essence and sent it to speak to them.

"Lawspeaker, godchild, you are too weak to be as young as you are. Even a gift would be wasted. The pantheon has entered an era of peace and I don't think you are endangered, but I advise you, tread carefully. Know that you are loved and, no matter your choices, if you have peace in your heart, my home has a place for you."

The world is altered to give rise to monsters, the Season of Crowns grows fascinated by the development, slowly but surely adopting the mantle of Monsters itself.

>Upon its revival, Ohr would automatically reform into a kugelblitz in a split second, then uncharacteristically would slowly rise from the ground and then just...stop. It would then not respond to any kind of stimuli, not even a twitch, pulse or offhanded comment, just nothing. Even the sight of a newborn god being assaulted did not make him stir.

>At the end of its ascent, before it went unresponsive, large swathes of shades,light and mist oozed out of Ohr like a bleeding wound. Ohr used to keep impure things accumulated to better sanctified them and destroy them, denying rot the chance to spread further. Thanks to his unresponsive state, a quantity of these is beginning to leak without being changed by purity first, and because the Destruction domain is no more, there is no filter to keep them in. The accumulated waste would drift into the Firnamental sea, and the light there would begin behaving oddly. The systems that kept purification in check malfunctionned and started atacking things indiscriminately, the waters would boil into luminous steam that left entire regions devastated yet sanctified, and light itself would no longer make a distinction between ''pure enough'' and ''completely corrupted' and the shades would not stop at sinners in their consumption. The initial wave being focused on the outer regions of the sea meant that it was more dangerous to enter and thus ironically more fortified.

"If only I could wipe away the impurities."

If only it had more time in this place. It wanted to create an angel to help in its duties of "auditing" creation. Nothing stops it from creating another Godbeast however. To return to that place, to return to its smith's hand, that is less than a price and more a reward. Perhaps they will be merciful, perhaps they will be wrathful. Nothing matters beyond them.

>Rairael manifests a gathering of runes in the empty air as Ashkur approaches. As the blood and of herself is spilled on the smith’s blade, she finishes her first and last miracle. Her soul is gone in seconds and only the flesh remains. The tyrant gorges on her flesh, but it is poisoned. When it finishes its feast, only a certain command should remain on its mind. “DEVOUR ALL GODS.” It shall be empowered in this endeavour and grow into the image of the chains that once bound the Progenitor. She is only a mirror, after all.
I noticed that nothing stops anyone from doing a miracle in combat. Rairta here is going to spend 2 of her ichor and roll a dice of 1d100+50(Sacrifice, Soul, Blood, Binding, Law)+5(Ichor). After this is the combat dice, it will be very sad.

>At the sight of this divine infanticide, the moth shook in horror. Not for the cosmos reeling at the Tyrant's stolen majesty, but the godchild now reduced to a broken body, one more lump of meat to be feasted on. It was an atrocity among atrocities. More than mere deicide, it was the opportunistic murder of one far lesser, after greeting him in peace. Zyyk paused, shaking in dread, and then, in another, altogether deeper malice. Zyyk had seen too many butchers.
