Yes yes yes!

Spoiler: Lauxal (click to show/hide)

Name: Lauxal, Queen of Monsters
Sphere: Primary: Monsters Secondary: Nightmares
Primary form: She appears as a massive giantess with coal black hair, the body of a spider, 9 eyes, bat wings and a massive scorpion tail. However she can also disguise herself as a person`s worst nightmare with ease.
Associated symbol: A silver spider with 9 eyes.
Description/Background: Born in the darkness, she shall spread her children far and wide. The mortals shall fear her arrival, however all monsters shall honor their great queen.

[IcyTea31]

Because I have nothing better to do, here's how I predict Aurosseu's relationships will go with the gods that we have so far, based on spheres and descriptions. Most likely, some of the 'Neutral' category will drift over to either 'Ally of convenience' or 'Opponent' once the board is set and everyone has gained some power and relations. Still, a friendly god would be nice, just for variety.

• Friend:
• Ally: Lithus/Luthus
• Ally of convenience: Ra Ha Sahaka, Izgamlo, Alicia
• Neutral: Iliseth, Teburshe, Vgray's WIP character, Gai-gen, Moi'aaty
• Opponent: Mavnon
• Nemesis: Lauxal

Because I still have nothing better to do, I could do these assessments for other characters at request. Any interest?

[Demonic Spoon]

I admit to mild curiosity of how you'd assess Izgamlo's probable relations with everyone else.

[IcyTea31]

Izgamlo:

• Friend:
• Ally: Ra Ha Sahaka, Moi'aaty
• Ally of convenience: Mavnon, Aurosseu, Teburshe, Lithus/Luthus
• Neutral: Iliseth, Vgray's WIP character, Alicia, Gai-gen, Lauxal
• Opponent:
• Nemesis:

Izgamlo seems so flexible, very little conflict stems from his nature. Theoretically he could get on good terms with any and all other gods, but poor chemistry between the others makes that improbable. In practice, Izgamlo can choose his friends, but must be aware that the choice has consequences.

[FArgHalfnr]

I'd love to see that for my character too. And just out of curiosity, why do you think we'll be ally? Not that I'm against the idea, just that since our aspects are unrelated I would've expected to be an ally of convenience or neutral. The fact that one of my character's personality is violent might also clash with your peaceful aspect.

FAKEDIT: I just remembered my progress aspect also includes arts, as I mentioned in my character sheet. I guess dreams and art go well together.

[Dutrius]

I've updated my character. I may reword it a bit better later.

[IcyTea31]

Dreams bring desire for progress. Revolution implies a new beginning. Those are the primary connections between Aurosseu and Lithus/Luthus, though there are a few more minor ones towards both good and bad relations. Yes, the peace and violence clash, but Lithus/Luthus is a package deal.

Lithus:

• Friend: Luthus
• Ally: Ra Ha Sahaka, Aurosseu, Teburshe
• Ally of convenience: Gai-gen, Izgamlo
• Neutral: Iliseth, Mavnon, Vgray's WIP character, Alicia, Moi'aaty, Lauxal
• Opponent:
• Nemesis:

Luthus:

• Friend: Lithus
• Ally: Mavnon, Ra Ha Sahaka
• Ally of convenience: Iliseth, Izgamlo, Moi'aaty, Aurosseu
• Neutral: Teburshe, Vgray's WIP character, Alicia, Lauxal
• Opponent: Gai-gen
• Nemesis:

[DreamerGhost]

You should've seen the massive army I had. Seriously, only Strike Team Fusil could've stopped it, which they proceeded to do by striking the heart of the army (me and my archangels).

Remember when you within a whole alliance fought against Fusil? Remember how this kind of ASSumptions always returned to bite you in the ass?

I'll be making a charsheet momentarily.

Damn, magic and engineering have both been taken. Again.

That is very much MY line.

Then Cim nuked everything anyway, and I could have at any point  .

C'mon =_=' Cim never nuked anything.

Name: Lorash
Spheres: Metals and Memories
Primary form: Bulky metal golem engraved with fractal runes.
Associated Symbol: Engraved anvil
Description: Lorash believes in inevitability. No matter what, being is fleeting and all eventually return to void. As such, only the journey matters. Lorash is dedicated to recording said journey, creating eternal record of all that lived.

[FArgHalfnr]

Character sheet list, with everyone's aspects
Since I don't want to be constantly searching the thread for everyone's character, I've decided to put each each god's sheet in one place. I'm posting this here because I'm guessing I'm not the only one who might find it useful. (I know there's a character list at the first page, but it doesn't include all the information I need.)

I will try to add new sheets as soon as they are posted, but since it is not an official list being added here does not means that your entry has been accepted. If you plan to edit your sheet please make sure to announce it on the OOC thread so that I can update it here.

Spoiler: Iliseth Character Sheet (click to show/hide)

Name: Iliseth Ilwen Yua Inel
Sphere: Souls and Blood
Primary form/associated symbol:


Description/Background: Likes combat and killing but only when there's real reason to do so. Otherwise tends to mind her own business unless something really worthy of her attention is going on.

Spoiler:  Mavnon, Overseer of Conflict (click to show/hide)

Name: Mavnon
Sphere: Conflict (primary), Ritualistic Pacts Between Individuals And Supernatural Beings(secondary)
Primary form/associated symbol: He/she takes the form of a warrior, dressed in appropriate equipment. The form He/She takes changes as Mavnon pleases. One moment, she may be a towering giant adorned in chainmail while the next a small newt decorated in feathers and wielding a claymore. Regardless of form, a scroll and rusty sword can always be seen to be deeply lodged into Mavnon's hips. For a symbol, She/He uses a sword pointing upwards, with light radiating from it.
Description/Background: Mavnon is the overseer of Conflict, she who ensures that the gazelle flees the cheetah or the assassin slays the king. He sees Conflict as the very essence of Life; without Conflict, there would be no improvement, no real point to Life besides the continued existence of the gods. This is not to say that utter Chaos is Mavnon's goal; no, that would be reckless and stupidity. What Mavnon instead desires is an ordered world where Conflict is but another facet of existence, neither a blessing or curse. It is only through Conflict that the world will be bettered, its people blissful and the gods kept strong. While in general terms Mavnon supports all conflict, she is not a neutral bystander; he will take sides as she sees fit, helping the strongest or weakest if it would align with his goals. As such, Mavnon may help a kingdom conquer its neighbours one century, and throw it into disarray the next. This said, ardent worshipers of Mavnon are usually safe from the god's changing allegiances as Mavnon is pragmatic and knows that is without a doubt, suicide.

While a being of Conflict, Mavnon has the habit of granting boons to mortals she particularly favours. On some occasions, these boons are less granted and more forced upon.

Spoiler: Ra Ha Sahaka, God of Forbidden Knowledge (click to show/hide)

Name: Ra Ha Sahaka
Sphere: Knowledge, Ambition
Primary form/associated symbol: A squidlike entity with a giant incandescent red eye/An eye with nearby tentacles in any shape or arrangement
Description/Background: An easily amused entity which likes to see mortals struggle, learn, grow, and ultimately fall to their own hubris and reckless power. Works well with others, but fairly disdainful of higher beings that seem to lack flexibility. Hopes to organize several deities into a coherent pantheon over a coherent domain, that their contributions might enrich and empower it well beyond what each might think to include alone.

Spoiler: Aurosseu (click to show/hide)

Name: Aurosseu, the Keeper of Dreams, the Absolver, Giver of the New Dawn
Spheres: Dreams. Patron of Healing, Peace, Forgiveness, Rest, the Night, Sunrise.
Primary form/associated symbol: To other gods and similar beings, Aurosseu appears as a humanoid figure in a simple all-concealing hooded white robe. Inside the hood, only a dark, starry sky can be seen. To mortals, Aurosseu appears as their sweetest dream; if there are multiple observers, he takes on aspects from the dreams of all of them. His symbol is a rising golden sun behind a silver horizon.
Description/Background: Every morning, in an ideal world, a being wakes up invigorated, with only the joys and successes and none of the sorrows or fears of yesterday. Both old and new challenges await, but with new strength, the being faces them. That is, in an ideal world. In reality, someone has to bring that rest, that vigor, that blank slate. Aurosseu is that someone.

Spoiler: Teburshe, The Shade Keeper (click to show/hide)

Name: Teburshe Fikathat Baduol
Spheres: Growth and Shadow
Primary Form/Associated Symbol: Teburshe has no single form, and will often appear as a gaunt old man or woman, kindly or crotchety in turns as they please, or simply disguise themself as a wild beast or look through the eyes of some great tower. Their favorite form, however, is that of a great overarching tree with branches spread wide, offering shelter to those beneath it. Their symbol is, similarly, a tree, though in some circles it is instead an extremely large and tall tower. In either case, the shadow it casts is as much part of the symbol as the object itself.
Description/Background: No work is ever finished, and no height can be reached without casting a shadow down below. Teburshe is a patient god, though the irreverent might call them slow or overcautious, and prefers to ensure support is in place before any plan is carried through. There is always somewhere higher to reach, and aid to offer to those in the shadow cast by greatness...and those who must be deprived of their time in the light to offer it instead to the greatest. Teburshe seeks a world of endless Growth, reaching beyond the limits of possibility and sense to achieve the truly magnificent. But as in everything else...the tallest tower requires the strongest foundation, and Teburshe can work patiently. A tree's roots can also grow, in the cool depths of the earth...

Spoiler: Izgamlo (click to show/hide)

Name: Izgamlo
Sphere: Primary: Magic Secondary: Portals & Thresholds
Primary form: A massive, living portal, forming a silhouette of whatever physical thing the viewer fears the most. Where the portal leads to, and thus displays in the silhouette varies widely, from a innocuous field of flowers to the blinding light of the sun.
Associated symbol: A small black Anti-Sun symbol, that sucks in ambient light
Description/Background: Izgamlo wishes to access the mysterious existing magic via means of a great Portal, and learn how it works, and how she can use it. In addition, Izgamlo wishes to bend and warp space like one would mould clay into a work of art, riddling it with portals, making movement unpredictable. To achieve these goals, it is willing to work with other gods, as well following the adage of "you scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours".

Spoiler: Uztot Mailug/Azem (click to show/hide)

Name: Uztot Mailug/Azem
Sphere: Kinship, Blood
Primary form: An old man with a permanent smile on his face
Associated symbol:

Description/Background: The greatest bonds are borne of blood. The blood of the innocent and guilty alike, this is what connects all beings, so that they shall have purpose. So that they shall have happiness. So that they shall belong. Uztot Mailug realizes this above all, and cherishes every mortal union.

Spoiler: Alicia (click to show/hide)

Name: Alicia, Mother of the Muses
Sphere: Primary: Music  Secondary:Emotions
Primary form: A woman with hair as black as the night and a skin as white as snow. The long robes she's always wearing change color depending on her mood. She always has seven orbs of light floating around her, each one of the seven colors of the rainbow. She usually carries her Psaltery with her, which has 7 snares, each again one of the colors of the rainbow.
Associated symbol: A 7-snared Psaltery, with snares in the seven colors of the rainbow.
Description/Background: Alicia is a loving goddess, dedicated to making everyone happy. She loves every single follower dearly and easily forgives people their mistakes. She loves to disguise herself as a normal sentient being to play music somewhere, so she can brighten up the days of many people.

Spoiler: Gai-gen (click to show/hide)

Name: Gai-gen
Spheres: Primary(engineering), Secondary(architecture).
Primary Form/Associated Symbol: A bunch of floating, whirling, gears. In perpetual motion.
Description/Background: Gai-gen is the embodiment of mechanical technology, and as such he is nearly void of emotion... mostly. Also loves to build structures. Has a fondness for golems.

Spoiler: Moi'aaty (click to show/hide)

Name: Moi'aaty.
Sphere: Life and Death.
Symbol: A skull surrounded by vines. (any skull or skull analogue is acceptable, so as not to discriminate against future races with different skull shapes)
Primary form: A white (or black) robe, seemingly empty, carrying a scythe with a black (or white) blade.
Description: As the God of Life and Death, Moi'aaty mostly seeks to maintain some sort of balance between life and death. Or so he appears. He appears to be apathetic towards the mortals themselves, but may become manipulative to further his own ends, whatever they are.

Spoiler: Lithus/Luthus (click to show/hide)

Name: Lithus/Luthus
Spheres: Progress and Revolution. (Might be a bit too similar to rolepgeek's character. Let's see how it goes.)
Primary form: A jet-black being with two eyes that shift between purple, blue, green, yellow, orange and red, an uncertain smile, and a scientist lab coat/a full set of dark, almost black red armor with a menacing visor and two large horns.
Associated symbol: A white or red spiral, depending of the sphere invoked.
Description/Background: A being with a dual personality. Lithus is the god of progress: for him, nothing should stop the advancement of science, arts, magic, or anything else that can be advanced. Progress is both a mean and an end for him. Luthus is a much more aggressive
god: whenever something attempt to halt progress, willingly or not, he will put an end to it. He will mostly manifest himself to overthrow stagnant regime, oppressive dogmas and anything else that might stall progress, usually with the help of the local population.

Sphere/alignment thingy: Motion, physics.

Description/Background: Watchful and protective of rulers and their ilk, his goals are to safeguard those who rule over civilization.

Name: 'Sevron
Spheres: Time and Life
Primary form/associated symbol: He appears as a towering, humanoid stone being with piercing red eyes, his substance worn with age, with his symbol being a weathered stone.
Description/Background: This god is the recorder of all things, and a lesser creator of Life. He has seen many things, and will see many more. He is familiar with paradoxes and time-dilation.

Spoiler: Skolld (click to show/hide)

Name: Skolld, the bound and broken god.
Sphere: Binding and Bone.
Primary Form: A person with chains sticking out of their wrists, shins, neck, back, and lower spine. Every limb with broken bones are bound is steel chains, to keep it together. If the broken bones are to heal, they'll grow a bit every time, even until they end up grown into the chains.
Symbol: A broken skull bound with chains, to keep it from falling apart.

Description/Background: Skolld is a stubborn god, he'll keep his things from falling apart, even if he has to bind it with chains to do so. He has the power of binding and bone, he could make a knight unable to budge his armor, or make a peasant fight on, even if all their bones are broken and/or shattered.
Initially he may make the bones simply not fall apart, but if it goes too far, chains will emerge to bind them, and prevent them from falling apart.
If Skolld builds a tower, no matter how unsure the foundation or architecture, he will make it stand. Even if he has to bind it with chains and bone.
Skolld can also reinforce things with bone.

Spoiler: Stellarion (click to show/hide)

Name: Stellarion
Sphere: Space
Primary Form: Black cube which resonates statically when speaking
Description: In between the sun and the chunks of planets lies space, a hole in earth is empty, yet filled with space. Space has crystallized as a god.

Spoiler: Utther (click to show/hide)

Name: Utther

Sphere: Primary: Destruction, usually the more petty kind, though if you piss him off enough he does go Biblical, Secondary: "That smoldering contempt you have for all life you get when your day hasn't turned out right, you know, like you cut yourself shaving, you miss your bus, it starts raining while you walk home, a dog or a homeless person pooped on your lawn, and your forgot to delete some space from your DVR so your favorite show didn't record. That kinda feeling."

Primary form/associated symbol: An old crotchety man with a heavy wooden cane, any other forms he takes always have a definite human face that is always frowning. Symbol is a frowning face, any comments about "turning that frown upside down" is considered sacrilege and grounds for corporeal punishment.

Description/Background: To say Utther hates everything is a bit of a misconception, he is simply frustrated with all existence. He sees it as noisy and unpleasant, and he just wants it to go away. His followers usually have this same outlook on reality, the ones who don't only act that way to manipulate Utther into giving them stuff ostensibly for furthering the destruction of reality. Any followers who pray to him can expect one of 2 things: The first is if you dont immediately start complaining about things, or if you praise him and ask for blessings and such, he will complain about you bothering him and ignore you. The second is if you immediately start complaining, he will agree with you, and you 2 can enter into a dialogue that consists mostly of complaining about things. Sometimes you can say things like "You know, if someone just walked over there and gave them a good smacking, it'd set them right, eh?" and he'll agree, graciously granting you something to help you achieve said task. He also frequently forgets to take the power back afterwards, but it usually isnt a permanent thing anyway.

Spoiler: Shar Character Sheet (click to show/hide)

Name: Char (pronounced "Shar")
Spheres: !!Fire!!(primary) and minds/mentality (secondary)
Form: A winged dragon capable of changing the color of his shiny metallic scales. His great claws are a steely grey.
Associated Symbol: 3 sparks above a small flame
Background: This God is the spark. The spark of fires. The spark of imaginations. He gives the world these tools, the fire and the intellect, though he gives caution too, for these tools have limitless power, both to destroy and to build.

Spoiler: Verruckt (click to show/hide)

Name: Verruckt
Spheres: Chaos and Evolution
Primary Form: Verruckt generally appears as a tall, thin humanoid wearing bright cheerful clothing, a party hat and a bright white mask with a somewhat eerie smiling face painted on in black. While Verruckt's appearance and demeanor can seem quite silly, many people still feel somewhat disquieted in his presence, likely due to the erratic tendencies of his mood which can quickly interchange between overbearingly kind and generous to frighteningly sadistic and cruel.
Description / Background: Verruckt has no real goals except to keep himself entertained. To this end, he generally enjoys going around creating monsters and gifting (or cursing) mortals with an assortment of powers and mutations and then pushing them along to become either great heroes or great villains. Verruckt sees life as a grand and complex story. It is his job to make sure the world is full of interesting things and that life is never too dull. For this reason Verruckt, above all, hates stasis and too much order. After all, a story isn't very interesting if nothing is happening.

Spoiler: Khalira, Lady of Sky and Sea (click to show/hide)

Khalira
Primary: Sky and all things therein
Secondary: Sea and all things therein
Primary form: A tall, slender woman wearing a simple dress of deep, ever-shifting blues. Her skin is dark and tanned, with eyes in which the stars can be seen. She often carries with her a large claymore she casually wields in one hand. The cross-guard and pommel are both elongated and perpendicular to the hilt.
Associated Symbol: Uses both an albatross's feather and a shape similar to the hilt of her sword (Resembling the Christian cross, with an arm on both ends)
Description/Background: As the Lady of Sky and Sea, she tends to be very chaotic; quick to change her mind in an instant, and an agent of change in the world. Though she's not always good, she's rarely outright evil; preferring to toy with mortals and provide them with obstacles to overcome rather than outright harming them. As her spheres cover both the sky and sea, she also holds domain over storms, using them as signs of her favor, especially just before a battle. Many of her followers are maritime and coastal cultures.

Spoiler: Dgetga (click to show/hide)

Name: Dgetga
Sphere:
Primary: Invention, Creation (as Creation pertains to Invention), Taking Old Things and Putting Them Together In New Ways.
Secondary: Magic, esp. Magical Devices

Primary form/associated symbol:
Primary form: A human in what one might call a steampunk outfit, with octarine detailing.
Symbol: An octarine gear.  If you can't get octarine paint in this universe, or you're on a budget, or you feel like it, any old gear symbol works. 

Goals: Make Cool Shit.  Seriously, that's about it.  Would equally support a new spell or a new OS, but magitech has a soft spot in his heart.  Really, somewhat of a Muse/'urban legend' as opposed to a proper God, as he doesn't believe in institutionalized worship or even in exclusivity.

Spoiler: Vashna, Inventor of inventing. (click to show/hide)

Name: Vashna, Inventor of inventing.
Sphere: Invention, and knowledge.
Primary form/associated symbol: and he usually appears as this, responses appearing as if they were written by hand:
Goals: To invent things that change the UNIVERSE, like right now he has a awesome idea called "Cell phones".
