At the beginning of time the Elder God crafted the world. He carved deep ravines, built towering snow-peaked mountains, and drew forth deep blue oceans. He then placed across this world many fantastic races of plants and animals, populating it with wonder and life. Magic, life, and people of all races spread across the many lands of this new world. Yet this was not enough for the Elder God. He created a multitude of dungeons filled with riches, magical artifacts, and the possibility of ascension to High God of this world. The battlefield was set, now all he needed was players...


Gods and Heroes is a game where several players play as gods and several other players play as dungoneers. These daring heroes will delve the world's dungeons looking for power, riches, and fame. Whats more, they will help their patron god in advancing their divine career. The game will take place in turns with gods and heroes having alternating turns.

Gods
Gods are divine beings with no permanent presence in the physical realm. Instead they work directly by guiding their chosen hero through dangerous dungeons. However, helping your own hero is by no means the only way to achieve victory, killing or weakening rival heroes works just as well. Each turn gods will be given a certain amount of Intervention Points. These can be used to help or hurt the mortals in various ways.

Heroes
Heroes are mortal beings who are favored by the gods. Their role in the world is to complete dungeons and claim the powers and riches contained within them. However, their ultimate goal is to raise their god to ultimate power (and or becoming ruler of the whole world). Of course, your goal can be whatever you want, that just what happens when someone wins the game.

[SOLDIER First]

Spoiler: ooh nice (click to show/hide)

Name: Mir

Description (Appearance): Mir appears as an absolutely colossal being. His feet are those of bovine and the size of a lake, shaking the ground for miles with every step; legs, thick and long as a coursing river, are brown-furred to his thighs; his plain-sized chest a swathe of muscular flesh. The head of Mir, so high up from the ground that it is incomprehensible to all but the most stalwart of beings, is a bull's.
He has a squat nose and small ears the same color as his leg-fur, with enormous white horns sprouted from the sides of his head that curve and seem as though he wears the moon itself upon him. He wears nought for modesty but a loincloth made of no material and all at once, and an ornate ring of all the precious metals just above each elbow and on every forearm, calf, and horn.
The eyes of Mir are perhaps the most fantastic of all his features, appearing a milky white that shimmers and ripples as you look upon it.

Description(Personality): Mir is the patron deity of Peace, and his final goal as High God is to ensure its prosperity throughout the land. Though it is often a hindrance, he often checks upon the other Heroes to ensure none are lagging too far behind. ...Unless, of course, it is behind his own Hero.

Never played a forum game other than mafia, can I join?

[AbstractTraitorHero]

I think the VM will be happy to have players make a God sheet or a hero sheet.

Hero (I would rather call him a villain ):

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Garix
Race: Skeleton, used to be human (I know not really general fantasy)
Description: Garix used to be a human wizard, but he started looking for immortality and as we know playing with death is not a good thing. He studied, experimented, until he thought he found the secret of immortality. He used the spell he thought would make him immortal but instead it burned of his skin and flesh leaving only a skeleton controlled by dark magic. In his new form he is much more powerful but the force keeping him alive is dying out, he needs to find a new source of energy to keep him alive.

Garix is a skeleton, he wears a dark robe so that only his skull is seen. Even though he is undead he can be killed. He carries a dark sword, worships a god connected to death. You can imagine him as how you would imagine death (however Garix is  mortal).

Is the GM still here?

[Roboson]

I was out of town for these last couple days, and it seems several character sheets have trickled in. It seems we have a fair number of heroes, but only two gods. So it looks like we need a couple more entries. I'm thinking we have about 3-4 gods and 4-5 heros.

As for the way the game works (at least for the first dungeon) the heroes will travel in a party through the dungeon. There may be situations that one individual could not easily overcome, however, there can only be one champion to claim the final prize.
