If we do that, everyone has to be okay with me reversing anything you do in the next two weeks of roleplaying.
Which is why a beta would be better. No-expected continuity, no pressure.

Phi want Second Age
If we do a beta, how do we keep it from dragging on to long and keeping us from getting to the Second Age? I think we should have a definite end date for it so that we can move on easily.
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. |

Alright, so for my servitors, would the flaw for them be their non-sentience?
I'm not sure that I like that races must have flaws retroactively bred into them. Even the humans are beyond normal humans already.... I also just noticed that there is a large stat point difference between mythos and servitors, is that intentional? What is the minimum speed of mote gain?

I guess.
You wanted to play this like a game, now you have to. I'm sorry if I seem unsympathetic, but I don't want one person to have some sort of super-race so powerful an infant can easily tackle a dragon to death. Yes. Servitors are less powerful than most Mythos, but they are also generally more numerous and durable. They also get a stat point, which makes a difference. One mote every two days. So a Miracle every eight days, minimum.

And that's not including things like upkeep for Planes, right? *Groans*

This is why we should have a Beta~
So we can tell if things should be tweaked~ Without me having to worry about screwing with your hard work~

I agree, the beta test should come first. But, I wonder, will it be a possible future in the current timeline of the RP, or will it be whole different timeline?

Anything stopping us from attempting the beta now then?

Nothing really.
Just have everyone pick and announce their deity.

Pick? Announce? What's happening? Are we switching up?

I think its non-canon so we are experimenting within the Beta with any Spirit we choose.
I'll use Midas, but I'll be using him differently than how I plan to within the actual story

Yes.
You pick one god, then I shuffle them between everyone. People who join later will be included. The story will take place in an alternative time-line where the gods have grouped into two apposed power-blocs. This is so we can include combat rules and everything. Same places, race, mythical beings.

I choose Suna to represent Mina's pantheon for the beta.

The Primary reason for shuffling is to make sure each god is looked at through the viewpoint of someone who didn't make them.
That way any flaws will become apparent.

Actually, thinking about it again, I choose Magnas for the beta instead of Suna.

Hm. Okay...
Think I'll just stick with Uburra-Namall...

Right. Forgot about that part. Oh, well, still changing it to Magnas though. As a review of her profile: Magnas, Goddess of Lightning and
Metal
Lesser God
Power: 2
Precision: 1
Perception:
1
Presence: 3
Lightning
Rush (1): Magnas is able to move quickly from one end of a battlefield to the
other in a few milliseconds appearing as not much more than a flash of
lightning while doing so.
Steel Skin (3):
Magnas’ skin is impossible to damage with any mortal weapon and hard to damage
even with divine power, as such, if any god wishes to hurt Magnas then they
must have a Power greater than Magnas’ Presence.
===Tool of
Office===
Raiment of the
Storm
-A golden
yellow cape that appears to have been made purely from fur
-The Raiment
of the Storm can both surround its wearer with lightning, hail and other
elements of a storm to protect them as well as absorb any attack with the
elements of a storm to fuel its power even further
-If it absorbs enough power, the Raiment of the Storm can
fill its wearer’s entire presence with the power of a full-fledged storm

Alright, so we start with our first picks, divide into two groups, and swap Spirits when you tell us to?
