They remind me of dwarves from Artemis Fowl..

Well, they don't dig that quickly. They just have 4 arms and can scoop out sand pretty easily.

If fact, considering they live in a desert I can probably strike tunneling of of that list. Unless I've misthought, sand isn't very hard to dig through.

Hey son, wanna' learn how ta' make witch balls?

The way I thought of it was:

Rarity:
Races < Servitor < Mythos

Power:
Races < Mythos < Servitor
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

 Yeah, I know, Eda's power was one anyone could have seen coming. Though, in my defense, part of me didn't want to be too overpowered, and part of me couldn't think of a decent power that was both fit for a god and also creatively gluttonous. I think I may have an idea for her skill, but the Jaws will have to stay, on account of the fact that Eda's Gluttony typically applies to normal food.

Perhaps when her power grows (translation: when I think of a better object), she can upgrade from needing the jaws to eat through normally-inedible matter.

The... let's call them the Colored Creatures, for now, are the Guardians of Gehenna (one of Mina's Planes). They have the authority to allow dis-allow use of Divine Power within Gehenna, but they are bound to the Plane and cannot leave it. The five are meant to be the guardians of Gehenna as it has direct access to Mina's lands and Plane of Spirits, as well, they train any mortal that Mina's pantheon has chosen for intensive training. Each one has power over a different element (Fire for the Bird, Water for the Turtle, Wind for the Dragon, Earth for the Tiger and all of the elements for the Hydra).

Ok, I'm mostly ready to pay attention again. What important points did I miss?

Mostly that I'm defining my Servitor-Mythos to Zale, so that he can decide what guidelines I will use to define them, GV's defining his insectoid race, the Vandals, Wulf's talking about his Goddess of Gluttony, and Phi's discussing the differences between Mythos, Servitors, and Races.

@Zale: I defined what 'Most perceptive of the gods' meant in Mina's second power. I made it Perception 4+ because that's that inverse of Mina's Presence. Since the stats are all on a scale of 0 to 5.

That's it? I would have thought you all had discussed much more since yesterday morning.

So would I, but not many people have been on since then. However, the number of things that I need to define under the new rules is enormous, so I'm probably going to be making lots of posts just for defining everything.

Not many people? last night before I dropped that note and left, practically everyone was on. There's no way you filled so many pages with just that. Plus I recall Zale saying something about more rules. Didn't he get to that?

Well, maybe the 'not so many' was just my opinion, but only one page was filled after you dropped that note.

Wait, you're not just giving me the points of what happened since I dropped my note are you? Cause I'm asking for all the key points since before that. I don't know what happened since Saturday Morning. I literally dropped that note and logged off. I didn't read anything else.

I asked someone to keep a running list for me for just this reason.

Sorry, that's exactly what I was doing. Here are Zale's notes that he dropped for you... or was it Phi? Oh,well.

*New Rules Require Profiles for Heroes, Mythical Creatures, Servitors and Races. 
*Attempts to fit things into things. 
*Pondering at rules effectiveness.

I'm not sure what I was thinking when I approved that.

They don't really fit the profile for divine servitors by virtue of being individuals rather than clone-groups.

I think it was the uniqueness of the Colored Creatures that got them approved. As well as the fact that they're limited only to being in Gehenna.

Being able to dig easily could be a part of another ability. Especially if it's basically just the equivelant of having a shovel.

Desra

Minor Goddess
Domain: Lust

Power: 0
Precision: 1
Perception: 1
Presence: 2

Flaming Passions (2)
As the goddess of lust, Desra naturally has the ability to generate and manipulate a substance called 'Lustfire'. It is similar to normal fire, but with effects limited to living beings. To those who have reached sexual maturity, it has two effects. On those currently unaffected by Desra's lust effects, it will burn away physical imperfections, and turn them into much more attractive versions of themselves. On those already affected by Desra's lust effects, it will act as normal fire, and burn them to death. Only Desra and Uburra-Namall may manipulate this substance, and only major gods and pantheon leaders may withstand it.

=Tool of Office=
Heart of Lust is a heart-shaped pendant that allows the user to gain superhuman strength, and superhuman durability against foes who find the user attractive. The stronger the subject's lust, the stronger the user becomes against the foe (the lustful attraction must be natural, not induced). In addition, the user can blow physically tangible kisses at will, which will hit foes like projectiles of deadly force.

(Let me know if her skill is too much...)

This is for Mik Hael to alter whenever he decides to rejoin us

Mik Hael, God of Chaos, Monsters, Souls, and (Last Domain)
Pantheon Leader
Power: 3
Precision: 3
Perception: 1
Presence: 2
Anywhere, Anytime (6): The ability of a god of chaos renders them not entirely attached to any plane of existence that they are currently occupying and because of this, they can often traverse into any location in the third (sometimes fourth) dimension at will, including separate planes of existence.
                If a place is protected by a barrier, depending on the power, they will either be unaffected or project into the affected space as an apparition.
Strawberry Field (2): A skill which greatly increases Mik Hael’s Presence in a set area for a short amount of time, resulting in an unbinding of the laws of physics in said area, allowing for easier manipulation of space-time.
                Effects include: temporal shifts, light and matter bending for generation of solid illusions, and matter generation. The effect lasts for a period determined by skill level, after skill time limit is up, effects remain.
Anti-presence (6): A chaos-related skill similar to Anywhere, Anytime in which Mik Hael slips out of phase with the rest of existence rendering himself intangible and unnoticeable while in effect. During this state, Mik Hael is free to observe phenomena, but attempts to interact with the world in any way, cancel out the use of this skill.
                During the use of this skill, the effect of area effects and laws seem to be diminished greatly and for a time shortly after this skill is no longer in use. The ability to phase back into existence in order to convey vocal messages or physical objects while remaining in Anti-presence mode is possible but extremely tiresome.
Speedster (4): Chaos-related skill affecting the fourth dimension in conjunction with an effect on memory and thought processing. It allows Mik Hael to move and think at a speed much faster than should be possible in the physical plane of existence.
===Tool of Office===
Wanderer’s Staff
A simple staff in the shape of a shepherd’s crook, roughly seven feet in length and two and a half inches in diameter at its thickest point.
-The Wanderer’s Staff allows Mik Hael to pass through the various planes of existence ignoring the laws of reality of whatever area they pass through, but this effect lasts only as long as the user does not interact with their environment in any way other than travelling through, observing, or speaking with its inhabitants. When used in conjunction with Anti-presence, the abilities augment each other several-fold.

Should Independent Spirits be able to make Demi-Spirits?

Instead of a beta, could we just start the Second Age and reevaluate how the rules are going after say two weeks?

I feel that with the beta we are losing potential that we could just direct towards the actual Second Age because we are going to have to spend a long period of time on the beta before any distinct problems start appearing.
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
