I fail to see how this would be more than an interesting back-story, and possibly have an effect on it/their general personality.

It/they would be a composite of the memories from with it/they are drawn.

I suppose It/they would be harder to destroy, as it/they would likely return from other memories with a different personality...

A god that took form throught the consolidation of repressed memories that has the ability to draw upon the past in order to create fantoms of existance for short periods of time as well as access the memories and thoughts of others with ease, in fact altering them if they wish....This might be slighlty influenced by 1984 given that I have been forced to read it at least twice in the time span of less than one year.

That is interesting. If these Spirits from another world came to ours and we had to defeat them, will defeating them damage our world due to their domains?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

There are many ways to prevent somone from altering your memories, so its not really that powerful. It would still be just as powerful as any other High god.

[Zaleramancer]

Hmmm..

Note to self: Make a God of Life.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Probably not, it would just mean that thier world is damaged.

[Mik_Hael]

No it would just cause the final and complete utter destruction of their planet resulting in it fading away from existance.

[Zaleramancer]

At first, no, but eventually they would gain connection with the world.


There will only be a few migrating gods. Most of them will be born in this world.

[Mik_Hael]

.....Now your just taunting us.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Very true. Like Sisyphus, a Corinthian king in Greek mythology, once actually tied up Thanatos to escape death. It was only when Ares freed his fellow god that Thanatos was able to reclaim (yes REclaim) King Sisyphus for the Underworld, and people were able to die again.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

I don't think so, unless they integrate themselves into the mythology of this world and establish themselves as objects of worship. The worst it would do is play havoc with their own people and former world.

This is, of course, assuming that their own world still exist. If it doesn't, then I'm pretty sure that our world will catch the blow-back.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

The Greeks had Bios, the personification of life. I could see us having a god for that.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

But is it really necessary? maybe...

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Yeah, that's also true. If they're gods from other worlds, they'd have to establish themselves as gods of the world they're currently visiting.

At least I'd think so...

[Mik_Hael]

In all honesty I'm going with no.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Maybe, maybe not.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Not really, but seriously, the Greeks had a god for EVERYTHING. I'm not even CLOSE to done with all them in my MythPower series.

Yeah, so it's really you guy's call.

[Zaleramancer]

Really? What makes you say that?

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Lets not have a god of life, because then we're one assassination away from a dead world. Every event would become an escort quest, and even an injury would play merry hell with the universe.

[Mik_Hael]

You proposed the creation of a god that by destroying would most likely cause an end to all living things including the god's themselves.

It's oh oh, so tempting.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

Oh Mik, gods aren't really "Alive." Not in the traditional way.

Not even in most of the other ways, come to think of it.
