I'm fine with you taking Destruction. Seems logical to me. And I don't see why you can't use one Portfolio Element for multiple Domains.

I might as well throw it out while we are on the subject of new domains.

I plan on taking the primary domain of Death and the Portfolio Element of Undeath for it.

Reasoning
1) taught the Stormkin the life and death Cycle
2) Created simple undead, such as Zombies and Skeletons
3) Created advanced undead, such as Lichs and Vampires

I think Undeath is a subcategory of Death sense they are so closely related. But I'm not going to be claiming these until next cycle, so it's still up in the air.

Where can we get domains from? can we make up our own? with our own overpowered spells in them?

Godslayer domain: Domain power, stupid awesome: Clerics with this domain and everything they require to survive are immune to alter reality and can Call a duel with any god(other than me) at any time and the god appears at close range and cannot escape until the cleric says they can.

Spells:
level 1: Kill a God: kills one god(other than me), no save, so SR, no immunity or defences of any kind.
level 2: Kill all Gods: as per Kill a God, except that it targets every entity in existence.
level 3: Alter Reality: as per the divine power.
level 4: Become Ruler of all of existence.
levels 5-8: get steadily worse.
level 9: Cast any Spell: Replicates all aspects of any spell that exists.
levels 10-<undefined> : get steadily worse...

...

You can make up any of your own within reason, The GM's will decide if it is not within reason.

Plus we don't actually implement Domain Spells, or innate Domain Powers. Domains are currently for RP and DR purposes only.

You can presume they spread across the land to wherever they can survive.

Just for the sake of RP which is stronger? A herald or a Half god?

It should be Half god, seeing as herald are not special really, they are just messengers for the gods.

But I am not a GM so take that with a grain of salt.

Half god. Definitely.

Also, by half-god do you mean Exarch or God-ish?

Probably godish, I expect that the herald is much more difficult to kill, and probably harder to stop...

No see because a herald is not special at all, it is just a monster that the god happens to like so it uses it for a messenger. It is not (to use a example) Jesus, it is more like a angel. Jesus would be like a Exarch or God-ish.

Also can I grab the forging domain? I have:

Forged a plane.
Made weapon crafting.
Made Metal crafting.

But a herald is sort of an extension of a god, while a godish is sort of a separate entity, and exarchs are 3AP critters so aren't comparable.

A godish can do anything that a mortal could, but have to do most things mortals do. To deliver a threat to your enemies, a godish will probably have to fight its way into the enemy fortress and shout the threat over the sounds of battle. The herald will probably just appear at a window, speak, then leap out of sight. Basically, heralds send messages, and godishes have adventures. Using a godish to send a message is probably impressive if it works, but likely to fail. Using a herald to assassinate someone would be an exploit...

No no no. A God-ish (sounds like oddish to me, weird.) IS a weak god, but still more powerful than any mortal, under the rules here they are technically demi-gods. A exarch is a "critter" but a unique one and filled with godly power. A herald is just a exemplary critter, but in noway unique or even special besides being a favorite of the god. Also herald dont just magicly give a message, they would still have to avoid death if they tried to give a message to a enemy, and if they tried to assassinate someone they would have no more luck than a comparable critter.

The power goes like this:

Herald->exarch->God-ish->God

And that is just for those four if you add more:

Commoner->Low lvl hero/monster-> Mid lvl hero/monster->Herald->High lvl hero/monster-> Epic lvl hero/monster and Maybe Exarch-> Maybe Exarch-> God-ish-> God

Leaving out even more Epic lvl hero/monsters but they can fit in God-ish and God.

Herald are really not that impressive.
