THE GOD MEME 1.1

THE GOD MEME 1.1




You don't know how, or why, but you now have the power of a god. Scratch that, you are a god, with all the responsibilities (or lack of) the job entails.


How To Play:
♦ In your subject line, include 'god/dess of...' with whatever you prefer to post. This can be anything: god/dess of knowledge, god/dess of french fries, god/dess of wank. Whatever you think your character is most suited to be.
♦ Optionally, describe how they came to be that deity. Have they always been a god? Were they just made a god? Did the head god make them a god for shits and giggles? Did the previous god of, say, tigers make them god/dess of tigers before hightailing it for vacation?

Replier options:
♦1♦ Fellow god/dess of the same pantheon
♦2♦ Fellow god/dess of a different pantheon
♦3♦ God/dess of the same thing, same pantheon
♦4♦ God/dess of the same thing, different pantheon
♦5♦ Supplicant
♦6♦ Disbeliever
♦7♦ Clergy
♦8♦ Other — whatever I haven't thought of


lbr if you're going to choose anyway you don't need RNG to give you permission

( A minor Goddess of food. Specifically desserts, sweets & candies; a patron and protector of children and “youth.” Carries similar importance to the Greek Goddess Hebe who served ambrosia, the food of the Gods. Has taken the form of a mortal who lives among humans, sharing her eccentric love for dagashi & penny candies. )

A dashing rogue wizard dedicated to order, justice and looking cool. Is also secretly a nerdy antique expert.

He'd quite possibly be seeking some sort of favour from a deity. He's also the chosen one of some kind of snake god, so that could be worked in.

[God of storms. Thunder/lightning/rainstorms, sandstorms, blizzards, winds, even fire storms, all his doing.

He does, however, keep it on the downlow. He prefers to get his popularity and fame through his own hard work, after all, not with special powers.

But there does seem to be a storm of some kind when he's around, usually on the lighter scale unless he's miffed. And he sure does love to take selfies in the middle of his storms.]

An improper deity, then. Does seem semantics are involved, but I enjoy the concept of raising oneself upon such a grand pedestal.

Tell me. I am not familiar with your doings -- what do you, in fact, do?

[Not a lot of devotees, but the few he has are quite dedicated. He's along the lines of a Pan-like deity, pretty chill unless he has reason not to be. Can be summoned by singing a song by yourself at a shrine.]

[In fairness, Loki exaggerates a little. He did attempt to be a proper prince when he was young. That's long since fallen by the wayside, though.]

I transgress. It's a Trickster's job to upset the status quo and tip the balance. Not necessarily to the point of destruction, but far enough to annoy, or frighten, the far-too-comfortable.

Or were you looking for particular stories? I might trade a tale for a tale.

Tip the status quo in such a manner so as to benefit oneself? I wonder. You seem... comfortable, yourself. Would you not be an appropriate target?

[ Smiling broadly, he stretches his shoulders and wafts a table and chair-set to settle down with an tilt of his head. ]

No. He pats her head again before backing off.

Of course! Natural as the day is long. I did not realize they had a god. That seems... strange... Why would the undead require a god? I have certainly never heard of a vampire needing a zombified god!

[goddess of stealth, no romance/smut]

Moira had no idea how she'd ended up a god. She hadn't even cared for them previously, no matter how often she'd watched the religion squad use their powers to either harm or heal.

Speaking of the religion squad, they were going to love/ this.

[Technically not a god at all, but for this, since he sometimes was considered/identified with the god of the sources of the Nile (in his position as cupbearer) or the/a god of homosexual love, either of those! It wasn't something that happened immediately, but slowly, over time.]

You are their god. This seems such a distant relationship.
