Hey Dwarm, could I get a link to the lore thread you're talking about?
@Waters, Those gods could work! I'm hesitant to use the supplemental domains simply because they over complicate things, but since these are supplemental gods, I see no problem. Also, as a side note, I meant for the 'Child' or sibling titles indicate origin, not domains or themes. Like, Child of the Dead Winds would indicate an Air/Negative energy combination. But it's a small nitpick. Well, actually, seeing as how Rowbe is already a combination of two elements, further adding elements would over inflate the titles. Yeah, never mind about that, Child of 'x item' should be fine.
@Dwarmin, I'm not so sure about adding other Forgotten Gods. I mean, they are supposed to be the titans, the ultimate six, one to represent each of the inner planes, the six elements of DnD. However, we can make... another section of gods? Yeah. Whereas the First Ones represent races and the Small Gods represent qualities (and sometimes races too), this other section can represent minor facets made before the First Ones.
We can just call these the Facets, or the Aspects, or... I dunno.
In the end, I want the Forgotten Six to remain the six distant, all powerful, banished super-gods. But their children, cousins to the First Ones, can represent more elements. But if we are to add this section, we'll have to have enough gods to justify having the section in the first place.
Oh, I just remembered all the Quasi and Para elemental planes. We can associate all of those with new Facets.
This first graph shows them all, and where they come from. I believe "Mineral" fills the "Metal" role nicely. If you want to include them, that is. These minor planes might just add unnecessary complexity to the lore.
What do you think?
EDIT: Oh, I forgot about your concerns, Kid! Sorry, the threads moving so fast. Anyways, making a First One of each alignment might be a problem. Each one is supposed to represent the major races, so if I made them equally evil and good, we'd have whole races worshiping evil gods, when the majority of them are good! But I should emphasize: The First Ones may be first, but they're no more powerful than the Small Gods. Evil characters shouldn't feel slighted by being forced to worship a 'lesser' god, because they're not lesser, they're just younger.
EDIT x2: I see
none of the characters have any affiliation with any of the gods! The closest we have is 'Good gods'. It's not game breaking or anything, depending on the DM, but I expected the paladins/druid to have gods at the very least!
