Upon the Mountain Top
« on: March 30, 2024, 02:06:42 am »

As above, so below; for beneath the caverns beyond any depth that can be chiseled away by any mere mortal’s axe—reserved only for those most unfortunate to receive the highest praise of a miner—lies a most otherworldly place. Where death itself fears its beast lurks. So, too, would the prospect of an antagonistic realm where the deities roam. If under the depths there is the circus, then potentially, beyond the mountain tops, there is the library housing the knowledge for the realm. Much reminiscent of the Mount Sinai, the peak of Olympus, or the humble abode of Shiva, a worldly avenue to the court of the gods would be a great parallel.

My Suggestion inherits the notion of dig too deep, build too high, demons below angles above. Just like how spires can lead to the circus, Procedurally generated structures on top of mountains can lead to the home of the gods (mountain temples etc...). Also, there can be an avenue for building up the gods with some kind of tower, resulting in some consequence (release of angles, rath of gods etc...). The reward for such endeavors. can be the acquiring of secrets (demons names, summoning of angles, heal restore life, control elements etc...) through the dropping of slabs, books, or scrolls.

Realm of the gods

The realm consisting of skies of indescribable colors where deities hold seats over domains guarded by angles, arch angles, and solders in the center of cities populated by souls of their respective deities. It can be a great target in adventure mode. as claiming a seat can be the same as claiming a site. Each seat/deity/pantheon can have its own realm depending on generation.


Deities


Deities can hold seats over domains that appoint champions and prophets spawn demigods and avatars similar to the noble screen. each position coming with its set of powers, perks, and responsibilities limited only by number of followers and their belief (more followers and faith more positions and perks (like weather events, blessings, summoning spires, setting divine law etc..). Deities can compete with other deities through missions given to appointed positions. As well as taking seats from other pantheons. Pantheons can run similar to Cavillations, and seats similar to Government.

In adventure mode it can be done through speaking if a seat is claimed.
