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.

Yeah.

They'll still have connection to their old world, at least until they sufficiently adapt to this one- After severing ties with the world they came from.

Which would take quite awhile. The migrant gods would have already cut themselves off from the old one. They'd be weakened by this- sustained only from the faith of their people.

In game terms, they'd only have the motes from races, not the natural 1 per day or from domain actions.

Well, his defeat wouldn't have to mean the death of Everything.

I think that domains should extend between worlds, so completely hurting a domain should have some effect.

[Mik_Hael]

I count living as anything that can currently think, or at some time will think in the future.

[Zaleramancer]

:D

Well, the destruction of the God of Life wouldn't kill everything.

It would just mean that things would stop being born. You could get around it by making new people to replace the old ones, or by extending the lives of your people while you tried to find a better solution.

Most likely, the need for a new god of life would cause one to begin to form.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

Let's say someone in NB hurts or destroys Bios in NB. What you are saying is that that would affect LoC, and I totally vote against that.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

What does NB have to do with LoC?

[Mik_Hael]

Wellll, when you think abou tit that would be the destruction of the god of creation, or birth which would cause that, then again that's imply assuming that god's actually are the domains instead of simply being those who controll the domains, If anything the destruction of a god would cxause a vast release of energy which would cause the domains that they control to become haywaire and their fluctuations would cause damage to the other domains resulting int he destabalization of the dimension.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Zale's decision is law...He decides the outcome.

[Mik_Hael]

...I'm actually on marv with this one, we probably could do a cross over, at any time we want, but at the current point this hasn't happened.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Oh, I don't think that should be the case. Like killing Zeus (!). That would wreak bloody havoc on all those who he had domain over, but those protected by Odin or Thor would be just fine.

Numerous deities exist over the various domains, thus, it would take killing ALL gods of that domain to do true harm, I would think.

[Tsubasa & Wen Tien]

What you are saying is that a god's domains should affect all worlds regardless of where they are at or from, or at least that's how I read your post. And if that is so, then by harming a god of life in NB, that would have a disastrous effect on life in LoC, which is why we should not put your idea into efect as it is not a good idea.

[Zaleramancer]

Spell Check, Por Favor?

The injury of a God of Life would cause nasty side-effects. Life energy would surge and recede at random, causing booms of birth and growth, de-aging and such- then causing a lack of growth or sluggishness and exhaustion.

But it's the God of Life. That domain doesn't cause much killing, unless it's because they explode from sheer life-force overload..

But after they have been killed/destroyed- then it more or less stabilizes. The domain would slowly fade.

Life would slowly -but surely- disappear.

If it was, say, Fire, then fire would slowly become harder and harder to make. Eventually, it would be impossible.

Seas would slowly dry up and vanish. Stars would fade away.

They end with a whimper, not a bang.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

What? I never said any of that. I said the gods should only affect thier own world.

[Zaleramancer]

On a global level anyway.

The local area they died in would be demolished.

[Mik_Hael]

Or it could be a Highlander like situation.

[Zaleramancer]

Phi said that, not Marv.

[Gentleman Vaultboy]

You read that wrong. What he's saying is that the effect should be be shared between out 2 world, because they're being connected and gods are trying to migrate over.

[Mik_Hael]

Tired and distracted.

I love how the attention shifts in this place.

[Celadon's Penultimate]

Sadly, but truly, you're right.

If that deity is attuned to the world/society/culture in which it currently resides.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Exactly, don't be putting words in my mouth.
