| DustFerret07-02-07, 01:06 AM | PANTHEON There are several levels of deities. They are: The King of Gods Jaweh: The god who created all. After creation, he undergoes eternal slumber, leaving the state of the universe up to the gods he made. A purely neutral being. Has no physical being, and is rather the essence of existence. Arch-Deities The four gods constantly war, in the heavens trying to decide once and for all which force of alignment will rule the earth. Whichever god seems to have the edge, the world tips in their favor, and powers of that alignment become more powerful. Prophecy predicts their war will last 1,000 millenia. The God of Good: Ultima:The patron deity of many Terran people. She is essentially the Pelor of my campaign. Alignment:NG The God of Evil: Exodus: The most evil being in existence. Wills nothing but despair, and suffering upon all who exist. Alignment:NE The God of Law: Mateus: Upholds the laws of physics. Her will is what makes Terra rotate, and orbit the sun. Alignment:LN The God of Chaos: Zeromus: Responsible for the element of entropy, and most unexplained phenomena. Alignment: CN The Deities God of Death: Shagrath God of Life: Otep God of Nature: Jenovah God of Fire: Aries Goddess of Water: Calypso Goddess of Wind: Sylph God of Earth: Golem God of War: Kratos Goddess of Love: Venus God of Justice: Galder God of Travel: Hermes God of Magic: Merlin Semi-Deities The Demi gods live on Terra itself. They were once mortal, but were chosen by the Arch-deities to do their bidding on Terra. Evil: Baphomet: Put into a 1,000,000 year slumber by Tournesol. The horn that can awake him hidden away. Sleeping underneath Mt.Olympus Good: Tournesol: Lives atop Mt.Olympus. Takes the form of a huge Solar-Angel like being. Law: Raithwall: Lives in the Tethe-allan mountains. Living in a huge floating mechanical castle, he over-sees that science, justice, and the laws of physics are upheld. Chaos: Silenoz. An underwater dweller. He much resembles Cthulu, and if awoken will do the bidding of Zeromus, and plunge Terra into horrific chaos. Sleeps under Xanadu. I have not done the domains yet, but I will add new ones probably so check back. Planes The cosmology is much the same as in the DMG. I have not had time to make revisions yet. Civilized Countries in Terra Xanadu: Was once plagued by war, between two countries, Sylvarant and Madrigal. The war is over, and they have formed a united nation. (B.W=Before War, A.U= After unification. Important Events: King Tournesol the 15th King of Madrigal ascends to godhood. 1789 B.W Tournesol creates Mt.Olympus to be the tomb of the defeated Baphomet. Baphomet will not awake for 1,000,000 years, unless the Horn of Nabudis is played to him. 1678 B.W The Gigas King is almost defeated by Prince Arthur, but Arthur is slain creating tension between the countries. 1220 B.W King Alfred XVII of Sylvarant commits suicide. 800 B.W War begins, thanks to "negotiations" by gangster Mustapha Mond. 12 B.W Mond is killed 0 B.W The government of Sylvarant in shambles, King Dana I, offers unification, to acceptance. 1 A.U Present time- 100 A.U The other countries are on my map but have no developed story. If you would like to suggest something here's a list. Tethe'alla: West coast of Xanadu, on the continent of Terebathia. Eternia: Shares continent with Tethe'alla. Byzantine: Continent to the north-east of Xanadu. Cobalt Islands: South-east of Xanadu. Midgar Islands: South-west of Xanadu. Sinnoh: Huge continent south of Xanadu. Besides this, everything is generally the same. Magic and everything functions just as it would. Technology is standard PHB stuff. If you want, I can post my specific campaign setting if you're interested. I'm mostly looking for cracks, and suggestions. I'm sure you guys have ideas. |

| Elemental_Elf07-02-07, 08:34 PM | So are the Gods organized in a feudal manner, such as the King God has his vassals, which are the 4 Arch-deities then each of the semi-deities owes fealty to an Arch-Deity? Your setting sounds cool thus far, do you have any more info? |
| DustFerret07-04-07, 09:47 PM | So are the Gods organized in a feudal manner, such as the King God has his vassals, which are the 4 Arch-deities then each of the semi-deities owes fealty to an Arch-Deity? Your setting sounds cool thus far, do you have any more info? Sort of. The King God, is in eternal slumber. He will awaken when the war between the four arch-deities is over, to restore balance to the earth. I recently added a rank under Demi-God. Which is the Rank of King. I'm going to make a king template, so I can make King type Monsters easier. I'm only applying it to the species on which it'll be cool, but I'll post the template if anyone wants to steal it. I have so far done the following: Gigas: King of the Giants Mephistopheles: King of the Devils Dracula: King of the Vampires Leviathan: King of the Devils Ibliss: King of the Serpents Tiamat: King of the Dragons Yiazmat: King of the Birds I might have each King guarding some kind of relic, or set-up a summon type system for my players. So if theyd efeat one, they can somehow use it's power. |
