Gods, Avatars, Heroes

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby almostinsane on Sun Feb 10, 2013 6:44 pm

Gods, Avatars, Heroes/Champions, and Regulars:

Image
Gods:
One of your main character(s) will have to be a God as he’ll/she’ll be the one who will talk to the other Gods and send orders from his/hers realm, down to the avatar of the divine being.
Your God has the ability to shape his lands as he/she pleases, effectively making the lands into the most comfortable area for his/hers worshippers. However, not all Gods have their own lands, some are within such a large range that it can be applied for more than one civilization; for example, the God of War technically doesn’t need to have a kingdom for he’s so broadly ranged that every being will be worshipping him, one way or the other.

Very few times does the God leave the Realm of the Gods to directly interfere with what mortals does, and rarely is it gone unpunished by their peers.





Avatars:Image
They can be considered much like the messiah of their God. They are THE holiest men/women and their commands are regarded second to their own God. Such people are chosen by their God, for either obvious or secret purposes, and they are granted eternal life; effectively, an avatar can’t die of age or poison, yet they can be wounded and they bleed like any other creature.

Avatars typically possesses some similar powers to their God, for example the avatar of the God of Magic is most likely going to be an Arch-Wizard Master, while the avatar of the Goddess of the Elves might possess Druidic powers.

[THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE AVATAR PER GOD (Twin Gods won’t give you 2 avatars!)]





ImageHeroes/Champions:
Like the Avatars, heroes and Champions are held of high regard within a civilization. Some are as highly ranked as the avatar, others may be held of noble rank and a few might just be common people, yet to discover their gift.

Unlike Avatars, Heroes can die from age and poison, and while they are not as skilled as the Avatar may be, they certainly haven’t earned the title ‘Hero’ for nothing. These men and women have fought hard to be where they are now, each being a special man of his kingdom, whether it is magical, martial or simply pure cunningness, they are some of the few who can truly represent their kingdom/empire.

[Unlike Avatars, there is no limit for the amount of heroes there can be, however you’ll also have to play them.]









Regulars:Image
These are the regular folk of every kingdom/empire. Easier to be killed by an Avatar and Hero, however these are the people who make up the soldiers of every army, these are the unfortunate sods who discover magic and find themselves trained and harvested for the needs of their superiors.
Without number, and barely with any will, they vary from slaves, to servants to soldiers to noble men.

[You won’t be expected to play any regular characters. Only if you want to.]
