Ye Gods 5 OOC [0/40]
« on: October 29, 2016, 05:21:22 am »

YG killcount: 2 3?

Post sheets here or on the Discord
Sheet:
Code: [Select]
Name: No online-username-type names (e.g. 271ElfBeard828 or STEELFIRETRON)
Sphere: Up to two words to describe the domain you control
Primary form: Fluffy but not crunchy
Symbol: At least tangentially relevant and SFW
Description: A few sentences about motivations. No past Bubbles, no ascensions, no coherent history.

IC thread

Mechanics

Agreements, binding agreements, magical pacts, &c.

Binding agreements (witnessed by the GM for enforceability) cost a base of 140E. Every coherent/non-repeating 10 words, the final cost is halved. Excessively low complexity or irrelevant phrases will be ignored for the discount at the GM's discretion. Editing a post containing an agreement after the agreement has been signed on renders it unenforceable.

Action limit

At the moment, the action limit is calculated as roundup(# of players / 8 ), which equals 1 for 1-7 players, 2 for 8-15 players, and 3 for 16-23 players, reset everyday at 00:00 UTC. This will likely be refined in the future. There are separate action limits for free actions and for Essence actions. Performing actions beyond the action limit will result in possible random failure/backfiring. Reaction-actions directed at the PC responsible in a relevant way do not count to the action limit. Secret actions count to the action limit as normal. Listening for prayers uses up one free action.

Bypassing the action limit's limiting effects is allowed with an added 2E for free actions or an added 50%-cost for Essence actions.

Giving orders to agents uses up a free action.

Prices

Actions
Bold your actions!

If you think your sphere is thematically appropriate for an action, make sure to say so. Assuming your sphere isn't too broad (e.g. god of Sapience creating races, or worse, a god of Actions doing something), KJP will probably apply the discount, which is as follows:
    0.8x if you have only one sphere
    0.9x for each applicable sphere if you have two

Up to 0E: Fluff actions. Small bonuses of 1E or 2E may be given for excellent IC behavior
0E: Answering most prayers
0E: Setting up a fluff-only afterlife plane
1E: Smiting up to around 2500 individuals
1E+: Setting up a crunch-containing afterlife plane (NB: Not habitable for the living to prevent abuse)

Factories/generators

The break-even factor has been increased to 7 for Basic-Advanced things, 10 for Elite-Divine things, and 14 for Mighty-Almighty things. This means that a construct that creates a unit of a Basic race Tickly will now cost 28E, the price of 7 units. Factory-produced things will be slightly less powerful than individually-produced things of the same tier.

Price checks

Post a race description here on OOC to check which tier they fall under (unless you're brave or certain enough about the tier)

Stats

As with 0ld YG, there is only one stat for everything: Essence. As with 0ld YG, there is an Essence cap. All gods start with 20 of both. Reaching 1 Essence results in easily reversed incapacitation. Reaching 0 Essence results in potentially recoverable death with the aid of powerful preparations or benefactors (e.g. through a minimum infusion of a total of 16E, reviving at a 4:1 ratio to 4E). Reaching negative Essence results in permadeath. Unless reached by accident/clerical error, there is no self-powered recovery from permadeath whatsoever.

Essence can be obtained from Worship or from Influence. Worship is calculated as 2log2(n+1) where n is the number of worship-forming units (10000 individuals each right now) available. Influence is mechanically a delayed refund calculated every seven-divisible Tick from public spending on non-Basic races, artifacts, or heroes and other spending (e.g. smitings, blessings, plants)

Magic

Until a proper player-made system can be made, the 0ld YG schools will be used. They have been adapted and placed under Animals.

Spoiler: School descriptions (click to show/hide)

Technology

Technology is updated only every seven-divisible Tick. Nothing may exceed two technology levels beyond the current technology level. The current technology level is 1 (Bronze Age/Iron Age/Medieval). World technological advancement requires that most mortals advance, which requires plenty of actions.

Spoiler: Technology levels (click to show/hide)

Policies

Failure to adhere to policy will result in a WARNING. Accumulating three WARNINGs will result in a suspension of three days. WARNINGs dissipate once a week.

1. Keep IC in IC and OOC in OOC.

2. No fighting OOC.

3. No pop cultural/fictional references after, oh, say, 1930 without explicit permission.

Inactivity

Inactivity, defined here as a lack of posting activity on IC for at least a week, will result in being flagged as inactive (instantly reversible, of course). While flagged as inactive, other gods are free to generally wreak havoc on your creations and your character.

Should you need to be away from the game for some time, send a notice requesting safe stasis. The minimum time allowed for stasis is 24 hours. Posting IC or performing IC actions during stasis before 24 hours has ended will result in stasis being canceled and those actions being categorically ignored, a very unsafe state. Safe stasis results in complete character noninteractivity (e.g. no attacks or Essence transfers in either direction) and greatly reduces the likelihood of harm to creations.

Creativity Award

The Creativity Award is a 45E award given every seven-divisible Tick (starting T0) to the gods who best exhibit creativity (according to the rest of the gods). Each god may vote for up to two other gods, not voting twice as before. 45E will be split among the top three nominees, weighted based on the number of votes given.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

...well shit.

There goes my entire game-plan. Those price increases even for basic-advanced things hurt like hell.

I might need to think up a completely new character.

EDIT: @KJP, Character application edited if you could please update?
