Shouldn't the overgod be beyond flashy displays?

Or just have no form at all, just a see-through outline.

He could take the form of one of us to communicate with us...

Ok, first, I want in.
Name:Tarn
Psudonyms: The Mirrored One.
Sphere(s): Balance, Strife, Opposition.
Personality/traits: Split. (in diologue, which one is shown by having Red or Teal Text.) Constantly arguing about something, though they sometimes agree for short periods of time. In case you are wondering, Red is black face and Teal is white face
Appearance:A disk, constantly swirling with black and white energys, with two faces within it, one black and one white.
Other: Possibly have each of them do one thing, usually diametrically opposing (one creates a star, the other creates a black hole, etc.)
Second, I agree that The All-Father should have no form, or be constantly-shifting, possibly only as a Presence.
Third, on the topic of Divine Procreation, would the non-humanoids be able to do so by merging their Divine Essence together to form a new being with Spheres related to both?
Fourth, I keep imagining the solar system you are creating looking like some sort of celestial rave, other than the Crystal Ringworld, of course. Anyone else think of it like this?

Yeah, for the record, I'll go ahead and store the remainder of my acts for now. I don't know how act-intensive my Super Secret Master Plan will be (though I'll PM you the details at the same time I put up the relevant post), so I'll err on the side of caution there. Also, I can't think of a good way to integrate it with the existing post without it looking like crap, and I want to drop in on Poena during/after her training, rather than before. (Fashionably late and all :P)

I will warn you guys, though; the plan involves quite a few of you, so keep an eye out.

Mysterious super secret plans, eh? This should be interesting.

EDIT: Also, are you updating soon-ish today, Caesar? Everybody seems to have disappeared somewhere.
And we're only missing 'Anacreon'

Or just, you know, a guy.

I don't see why it has to be something odd or special.
To anything that isn't shaped like a person, a person would seem very odd and special.

I would vote for no fixed form. Failing that, something completely nonorganic, such as a pillar of flame.

Make it even more special. Xarn should be formeless, but when he appears it should seem to the gods that his body is the very universe around them. The stars are his eyes, and his voice are the thousands of creatures on the worlds.

Or, different people percieve the form differently. One might see an eight-armed giant, another might see a fire-breating donkey, etc.

There's no 'vote' on it. I've already made up my mind on the how and what of how Xarn will look. :P

The readers of Origins might have more of a clue about that.


Also: I'll add Tarn to the 'Trapped Gods' list, and the update'll be tomorrow, promise.

You will still have to define what the opposite creation will be, and it might just still cost yet another act. (Unless it's something really small that's being mirrored.)
