1In the beginning, there was the Void. Then, the first Gods came into Being. They began to form the world as more came into Being.
--Volumes of Being: Volume I: The Book of Origins: Chapter 1: The Void: Verse 1



This is a divine RtD. You play as gods forming the world.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Name: Ort
Affinities: minerals, electromagnetism, reason.
Discords: organic matter, life, insanity.
Other Notes: traditionally, his appearance has been associated with auroras, as this is the time when most see Ort's power at work. Otherwise, Ort does not appear to mortals, though his works are rather plainly visible if one digs deep enough. Ort isn't known to communicate with living beings on his own terms, and it is unknown if he is even capable of it. He is said to be able to understand the requests of mortals, provided they are worded without ambiguity and without unnecessary embellishment.

Will this do, or are minerals and electromagnetism too broad?

2The first of these gods were eight in number. 3The first was Pisanrio, the God of Chaos and Lord of Discord. This one was followed by his opposite who was the same, Discord the God of Innovation, whose chaos was directed towards novel creations. 4More madness was to follow, with Nix the God of Madness, Komote the Nonlethal Flaming Trickster, and K'llxz. 5Finally, Li the God of Life and Ort the God of the Inanimate came into being, with hopes of ending the madness and beginning the sanity. 6These seven were joined by Cromwell, who started wondering why there was no sea yet.
--Volumes of Being: Volume I: The Book of Origins: Chapter 1: The Void: Verses 2-6

The First Gods came into being.

Alright, we're started! New players can always join.
In other news, I intended to create a system by which gods can change their Affinities and Discords, but forgot to. The changing of something so integral to your existence seems like something that shouldn't have hard and fast rules. Short version: If you want to become God of Fire, start burning stuff.
But, so far, there is nothing to burn. Want to fix that?

Ninja: Sorry, swordsmith. I already had the turn typed up before you posted. You'll be in next turn. I'll even let you post an action for then.

Make this a bigger bang. A bang so big that its explosive power grows both inward, outward and flipward randomly. Create a race of space carp that will ride the bangwaves (which are now a scientific term) and consume their heat for sustenance.

Give birth to the Alone. A giant primordial being. Alone in the universe, driven insane by its need for companionship.
