I'm interested.

[Digital Hellhound]

Humm, this looks very interesting but I think 3 god games might be enough for the moment. Watching regardless. Just wondering - would a dimension-hopping posthuman intelligence (somesort of technological singularity deal) work alongside more traditional gods? Even if mechanically they'd be identical.

We never said the Visitors were like traditional gods. If anything, we implied something entirely different. :3

I know, I know, but I meant traditional as 'eldritch horrors that have lurked in deep space since the dawn of time, feeding on the stars themselves' as that's what dimensional invaders usually are. Posthuman intelligence implies mortals ascending to a god in contrast to one being born separately (from belief or whatnot) or having always existed.

Anyway, it's just an idea I've wanted to use in a god game for a while, nothing concrete. Perhaps I should make an app, hmm hmm.

[filiusenox]

I guess I'll give it a shot/waitlist, if you'll have me.

[jaass]

I'm in/waitlist.

[Tsuchigumo550]

I'd like to be in/waitlist. This looks like fun as hell.

[Deep Waters]

Sorry for the delay! Real life, some unexpected snags with the map, and a little bit of writers' block regarding fluff has been conspiring against us. We've managed to clear out most of that, though, so we should have it up by tomorrow. Barring other unforeseen complications. >.>

[javierpwn]

Yay!!

[Deep Waters]

Alright, it's up! Sorry for the delay. 

We were actually mostly finished for a while, just stuck on some crucial bits of editing. Anyways, not that you need me to tell you, but applications are officially open!

[Remuthra]

Where is the application form?

[sjm9876]

Spoiler: Physical appearance: (click to show/hide)

A winged, six legged wolf with coloured fur. He is roughly the twice the height of an adult human, with the rest of the body scaled to match, and his tail is much larger in proportion, and takes the form of a coloured serpent, with a seemingly independent life of it's own. (Note - the wolf would represent the first element, and the snake the second element). The colours of his fur shift constantly, although they settle down often on the colour that best fits his element, and likewise for his snake tail, although this is due to his subconscious rather than anything else.
 He seems at first like a savage beast to most mortals, and tends to inspire both fear and awe. However, his strongest followers become used to this, and soon come to revel in the wildness of their god, whom they deem free from the whims of others.
 He goes by no single name, instead allowing his followers to name him.

Spoiler: General personality: (click to show/hide)

Whilst not opposed to the finer arts of mortals, he is more attuned to the savagery and bloodlust of war than the admiration of art and crafts, unless such objects are practical. He cares little for the unneccesary, although he revels in grand displays towards a practical end. He is stubborn and unyielding, but not overtly aggressive - he is more solid than forceful in diplomacy, although he does struggle to contain his anger on occasion, especially when confronted with what he deems to be an unreasoned plan, or with blatant hipocracy or insincerity. As such, he tends to find dealing with most mortals taxing, and is unwilling to trust most until they have proven their loyalty to him. He also dislikes most magic users, especially in combat, as he believes all fights must give at least some chance to both sides, rather than one side being decimated before they are even in range of the other.
  His ideal follower would be a calm but direct mortal, a short worded person, who follows his own rules and ideals as much as he enforces them on others. He would also be an honourable individual, who keeps their word over all else, and believes in the importance of a fair fight.

Spoiler: Archagent: (click to show/hide)

An unusual Hachiri of the Tallfang clan, Vardus Tallfang cared little for the playful entertainers of his people. Instead he yearned to escape the niche life he had been given, and to find his place on his own. He reveled in his inhumanity, like many others of his clan, although he differed from them also - he is much larger physically, and also more gifted with weaponry and machines than his magically gifted race. He prefered to tinker with machines than to practice magic, and he hoped to one day find out how his people's airships were originally powered before they were magically restored. As such he spent his days on the ship, acting as little more than a daydreaming mechanic, who the others considered a loner and an outcast.
 When the visitors landed however, Vardus saw his chance. He was first off the ship to investigate the crater, and when he saw what rose from it, he did not hesitate to pledge his life and limb to what rose from within. He waited then to perform the will of the being he had seen fall from the sky, longing for adventure with all his heart, and taking upon himself the name Vardus Wolfson.
 Vardus is unusual among the Hachir, prefering to solve problems with a direct, hands on approach than with magic or words. He is a skilled mechanic, and having spent his life working on the hull of an airship many miles above the ground, is almost utterly immune to his fears, having learned to look them in the eye from a young age. He is a very instinctive individual, trusting them far more than the words of advice others may give. Vardus is also strong willed, refusing to give in to peer pressure or manipulation. He does not back down, not through any particular choice, but simply because the though of surrender never occurs to him.

Mah application, took a while to do.

[Ardas]

Righto, as soon as my other god games slowly die out, I might prep an app for this.

[scapheap]

Here my application

Presenting Katrinonus(cat-tir-na-us) the Angel of Might

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Physical Appearance:A red headed woman with five white feathery wings and a mechanical rust-colored one out her back(the mechanical is left side middle), one right green eye with the other being a robotic one that has a red glowing pinpick, fair skin, wears a long red robe and wielding a simple looking broadsword.
General Personality:Tend to be the heroics first, thinking later type, through this tend to work in her favour, being the paragon of good bring more people to her cause and when she does use that brain of her, it catches everyone off guard because the dumb one outwitted them. Also tend to be the easy going one who let the bigger picture do it own thing while she muck around at the grassroots, being more or less the idea of 'look after the pennies and the pound will look out for themselves'.

and her Archagent, Clair Heart, the romantic fighter

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Appearance:Long blond hair and wings with brown eyes and fair skin, scar under right eye, stopping just short of her nose, wears leather overalls and blue trouser.
Personality:A fun loving tomboy with romantic tendencies. Dislike killing. Like her sisters.
Profession:Raider, fighter
History:A harpie raider who very good at fighting, so much that she tend to be the last one away from a raid because she hold off chasers to allow her sisters time to get away. She viewed as odd because while most harpies will just do the deed and toss out the kidnapper man, she take them on dates first.
She is 21 years old, born in the kingdom of Lymaela. Growing up, she ended up a lot stronger that normal for a harpie, to the point that she remain the only harpie to win in a test of strength against a Hrakchir(It an armwrestling match). Like most harpies, Clair has a lot of sisters, numbering 32 at the moment, she being the 9th oldest. She view herself as their protector, putting their survival above her own.
Being the last one to retreat, again, led to her witnessing Katrinonus's descent, to which she charged to the landing site wondering what it could be and if she could fight it.

[Remuthra]

Arathea, Goddess of Pain

Surrounding the chair is a massive assortment of objects. This collection contains renditions of every possible item of any possible size and condition. Some of the objects are always diving at the chair, causing a renewed spurt of blood and screaming. The blood constantly shifts around, forming itself into symbols representing pain.

To be filled in soon.

[HailFire]

Okay, so I should probably clarify something, as Deep just chewed me out over IRC about this: The final draft of the third (rules) post had included minimum length requirements of 1-2 paragraphs for the first two items (appearance/personality), and 2-4 paragraphs for the third (archagent), with more detail encouraged, but not required. Even though that shouldn't be too arduous, I decided to cut those bits out at the very last second as part of my effort to make it less intimidating, trusting that enough emphasis had been placed on a certain threshold of quality and quantity, but given that some of you aren't giving us more than a couple sentences (which, in some cases, aren't even spelled correctly), please consider these requirements officially re-instated.

Sjm, you're just about there, though you could probably stand to fill in the first half of your app a little more. Scapheap, you are... not.
