… ⛩ ...

Have you ever wondered what the gods and goddesses do during their free time? Do they have relationships? Family? Rivalries? Do they go on vacation? What is their work really like?

Gods and Goddesses have lives too like going on vacations, fighting over the last dumpling, dating, and trying their best at their work. But when it comes to divinity, mundane isn't quite so mundane. After all, that fight over the last dumpling might turn into a war with their god powers. We'll be playing those gods and goddesses in a feel good rp with anime physics and over the top antics. We'll be focusing mostly on the characters themselves, their lives, and relationships. It's a slice-of-life, romance, comedy but as gods and goddesses.​

General Information Setting General Rules

• 
  - This rp is largely focused on the romance and comedy between the gods and goddesses while we rp out their daily lives.
  
  - Friendships, friendly rivalries, and romances are allowed and encouraged.
  
  - All gods and goddesses will be original. No gods and goddesses from real mythology or religions though feel free to take inspiration from them. You can be creative and fun when making your character(s). They can be as weird as you want (or as normal as you want).
  
  - While the setting takes inspiration from Japan and anime, your characters don't have to.
  
  - Anime physics apply, so anything can happen just like an anime
  
  
• 
  While the gods and goddesses' work revolves around humans in the Human Realm, most of the rp will take place in the Divine Realm.
  
  Human Realm: Basically the same as Earth and current modern times. To prevent having to deal with real mythology and religions, we'll be keeping settings in the Human Realm vague. Their detail won't matter as much as the Divine Realm.
  
  Divine Realm: The realm of the gods/goddesses. It's the same size as a world with many different places but to keep our characters closer together, we'll be focusing on a smaller section of the realm like a city. I'll be taking inspiration from Japan and anime for this realm. Basically, the Divine Realm is like the Human Realm.
  
  While the gods/goddesses' shrines are spread out throughout the world in the Human Realm, in the Divine Realm they are much closer together. Imagine the shrines like normal houses with other gods' shrines like neighbors. The rest of the surrounding area is just like any human town or city as well, with stores, places to eat, entertainment, and vacation spots. The Divine Realm doesn't just consist of gods and goddesses. There are also other beings that work and live there so these places do have staff and employees that serve the gods/goddesses when there. For instance, if a god goes to a restaurant, there will be cooks and waitresses there though they are not gods/goddesses themselves.
  
  We'll make up the more specific details of the Divine Realm together while we're rping.
  
  "The Creator": The first being to ever come into existence. Not necessarily a god or goddess, it is just a "being" that can take the form of either or anything it wanted in order to communicate with those it wants. It is the very fact that this being exists that anything else can exist. It is also what created the gods/goddesses, the realms, the humans, and other beings. However, it did not directly create them. They come into existence because "The Creator" but still are 'born' on their own, at their own times, in their own way. "The Creator" does spend it's time in the Realms and interacting with others, however, since it can take any form it wants, most are unable to tell. It will take time to purposely speak with the gods/goddesses if they request to talk with it.
  
  
• 
  - Please do not just disappear. Let me know if you need/or want to drop out. I'd rather have you tell me. Don't be afraid. I'll understand.
  
  - Please post character's name, location, and preferably picture during the IC posts.
  
  - Be nice to everyone in the OOC please.
  
  - Keep things PG-13 or so, we are in public view and have a range of ages playing.

I have a tentative song that is more of a joke. Not that it's a required section, but still. Figured it would be fun to try

 

[chaosheart13]

Wooooo, just finished the relationships! Will edit everything accordingly! Biyanka's is now done and I edited Lien's for Rory. This should be interesting...

Just a suggestion from me, a kind of nitpick really, but big blocks of white text are pretty hard on the eyes, maybe you could use some colors like for example I did with Nebby's quotes, or break the text down more like Spuds or Jess did?

Aside from that, I have to say, I'm loving all the characters so far, and can't wait to see what others come up with, and how they'll all be in "in action" :)

Took a bit of your advice and edited my CSes! Spaced them out better and did things in chunks as well as used colors! ...Not sure if Biyanka's quotes are too dark lol. But yeah, THIS WAS FUN and I can't wait to see what everyone else made!

 

[NeonArmageddon]

Oooh, yeah, that looks way better :D

I noticed your characters seem to have the same problem with Chiaki so I thought I should explain the best I could :P


At this point, Chiaki recognizes she can't do a lot of things in modern life without using some sort of resource so she sucks it up and tries to supply to make up for the demand. In other words she's not watching TV or reading a book without giving back to the planet in some way.

As for the processed food, that's for two reasons; taste and the ingredients.

Since processed foods are made with a bunch of man made chemicals and limited natural ingredients, Chiaki would rather eat that than what comes from nature so she does not disrupt the natural flow of things. In other words, she'd rather eat the processed garbage in stores because she'd want to leave the fruits/vegetables/seeds etc to the living beings in the wilderness who don't have the luxury of choice. The most she'd do is buy a bunch of strawberries from the store and throw them where wild animals are.

Also because a box of mac and cheese tastes so much better than a stick of celery.

Oooh, interesting! Understood, hm...I have no idea if my characters would know that initially though! ...Actually maybe Lien since he's an observer, but maybe not Biyanka. I need to think, I'll let you know if I decide to change something! And honestly I can see her point of view well, that does make sense! Honestly I feel like Biyanka would still have her misgivings and Lien would be worried about her eating all that and just...well, chemicals in general, but he'd better understand more with this explanation. ...Okay actually yeah fixing Lien's and Biyanka's a bit BRB.

No need to fix it or anything! I figured I would explain just in case you were confused about it

Them being confused allows for potential interaction~

Haha, true! ...Still edited xD But I do feel Lien would continue to observe enough to see...maybe even write something to explain his views and then whoop. ...I had to change Biyanka's a little too since like...after rereading it, the thing made no sense. OTL Yeah. Whoops. Well anyway edited! But maybe they might not entirely know everything in the beginning? Well, Biyanka, Lien might.

Damn, I just leave for a few hours and come back to the CI to be slapped with like 5 new characters, and I'm just like this after realizing I have a lot of reading to do...

And the CS are only gonna get more and more bloated with every character. The Relationship section is a blessing, but also a curse.

Yeah I probably won't do a relationship section for all the characters unless it's something significant... like "friends 4 lyfe" or "I love you" or "i'm going to murder you in your sleep"

What the actual heck!? XD

Press "F" for Respecc to our Spuds. He's the one with that long relationship tab, but it's hella handy!

 

[Reanimator Buns]

I'll probably spoiler it at this point

You know, that's a good idea, let me put mine in a Spoiler too

Edit: well, maybe tomorrow, I already put down my laptop, and my phone refuses to do the spoiler right :/

Yeah just did it too, holy cow that's so much easier QAQ

 

[AceSorcerer]

Welp, I just figured out I wasn't getting the notifs I was supposed to. Heavens, I've missed a bunch of conversations.

Speaking of which, @ScarletNova , would it be possible to have an OOC Discord server? Just a thought.

Could be a good idea with how active this seems :)

 

[Stray Shinku]

Remember that not everyone has Discord, though.

That's true as well. I guess it depends on what Scarlet thinks and what everyone else things haha.
