Gods of New Eras OOC (8/8)
« on: May 13, 2019, 10:04:19 pm »

When the Old World burned, the result of a horrible cataclysm which left the land barren, six of the Old Gods carried their people across the sea to a land unknown to their mortals, and only glimpsed by the Gods themselves. Now they arrive on the new world. Will these immigrants take root here, or will they wither and die, the last remnants of a dead land?

Gods of New Eras (GoNE) is a simple god game with a much smaller scale. You will guide your fleeing refugees to an unknown world and discover what mysteries and dangers await you there. It's going to be mostly free form and writing heavy.

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

God Name: Mother Forest
God Depiction: A great tree that selflessly let's other trees grow on it in a parasitic manner.
Religion Name: Treegrow
3 Guiding Tenants of your Religion:

- Be selfless and put the wellbeing of the community before your own.
- Be fruitful and multiply
- Suffer not the Elf to live.

Follower Race: Orcworts, Dryads, Needlefolk
Race Description:

Orcwort: To many the Orcworts are strange alien creatures. Giant intelligent pitcher plants that masquerade as trees, they struggle to do many things with their own crude tentacles, and instead create wortling fruit to act as their hands. Neither the Orcwort nor the Wortlings possess conventional senses, but instead possess a plantsense through which they can perceive vegetation and things in contact with vegetation, making them blind if there are no plants nearby.

Dryads: Tree spirits tightly wound to their trees, they cannot move far from them, but have powerful supernatural abilities and can call other plants to their aid. Many of the greatest Dryads and their trees could not fit onto the living treeships of the Exodus, meaning that the overall population is unusually young. The cataclysm has cast a generally melancholy pall over the various dryads.

Needlefolk: Intelligent, roughly humanoid plants that was essentially uplifted by the the other members of the Sylvan commonwealth before the Cataclysm, making them their its most fanatical and enthusiastic supporters. The betrayals of the elves during the cataclysm has also hit them the hardest, even effecting their biology to give them an innate ability to sense the traitors when they are nearby.

Departure Scenario: Commoners
Arrival Scenario: Strange Sickness
Starting biome: Thick jungle

Prior to the Cataclysm, Thal accepted, regardless of race all blessed with aspects of  its image, and, under careful tutelage, aided them in embracing their full forms.  The Cult of the Red Hand is composed of similar demographics,  though all are marked by lesser aspects of the Hand.

Congratulations to those who made it, and sorry to those who weren't favored by the dice. The IC writing will commence shortly.

Link to the discord for faster OOC conversation: https://discord.gg/eSxjM6q

Of course, this OOC will remain the main OOC area, but for quick things like price checks and questions, discord will be a viable option.
