Story: The incarnations of the gods are moving about the human world as they look for entertainment. Recently however several of the gods have come under attack by strange beings who are able to match their power and sometimes overpower them. Most of the gods incarnations attention is now focused on finding out what these things are and how they are so incredibly strong. ~Setting~ Modern day and modern technology. The location will mostly be in Tokyo but other places around the world. ~Rules~ -Your characters are gods, but that still doesn't make them invincible. They can't be hurt by conventional human means of course, but they can be hurt and killed by other gods and opponents of that calibre. -You can move from place to place across the world freely, but still not teleport from place to place. I don't want to see any instant transporting. -Your not allowed to run around in broad daylight or sight of humans while doing godly things (flying, special attacks, etc.). Secluded areas are fine to fight in or do those things in such as underground parking areas, remote areas, at night, roof of a large building and so on. ~Gods~ (Choose one of these for your character. Note that your character has their traits but they don't have to look or act like that god exactly.) Eir - Goddess of healing Heimdall(Taken) - Guardian of Ãsgarð Jörð(Taken) - Goddess of the Earth Loki - God of mischief Odin(Taken) - God of both wisdom and war Mani(Taken) - God of the Moon Njörðr(Taken) - God of sea, wind, fish, and wealth Nótt(Taken) - Goddess of night Thor(Taken) - God of thunder and battle Ullr(Taken) - God of skill, hunt, and duel Váli(Taken) - God of revenge Sol(Taken) - Goddess of Sun Hel - Queen of Hel(Underworld) Dagr - God of the day HlÃn - Goddess of consolation Iðunn - Goddess of youth Lofn - Goddess of love Skaði(Taken) - Goddess of winter Týr(Taken) - God of war and justice (I'll make up more if there's a real need.) ~Profile~ Name: Age(Your an incarnation of a god, so human age still applies somewhat.): Gender: Incarnation of: Weapon: (In the case of Odin and Thor, they must use their respective weapons, such as Thor using a hammer type weapon.) Picture: (If any) Description: (A little description of your character, if you want to give one.) Name: Vince (Might change this later.) Age: 23 Gender: Male Incarnation of: Odin Weapon: Javelin(Gungnir) Picture:  Description: Likes to have fun but in a darker way (shown later on). Doesn't keep in constant touch with the other gods and usually sends Freki or Geri to get messages from one god or person to another. Uses his Draupnir and sells the 8 extra rings created every 9 nights for money which he then uses for his pleasure. ~Sub characters (that I control)~ Name: Geri Age: 17 Gender: Female Incarnation of: Geri (Not a god) Weapon: (None) Carries a staff but has decent fighting ability, therefore she doesn't fight. Is more skilled than Freki however. Picture:  Description: One of the two girls who serve Vince as the incarnations of Odin's wolves, Freki and Geri. She is slightly clumsy, just as her sister and often times ends up in questionable situations. Herself and her sister are named after the wolves they are incarnations of, the reason for them not having a more humanly name is unknown at this time, but it seems to be out of choice. She tends to wear large baggy clothes wherever she goes due to her fear of being fondled by dirty men (this 'fear' comes from Vince's joke stories about large chested women being drooled over by those kinds of guys), so she wears the baggy clothes to hide her large bust. She often defends her paranoia by saying that she is trying to match her sister's style of clothing who wears it as more of a fashion. She seems more childish around Vince, this is mostly due to the fact that she rarely interacts with humans and prefers to watch from hiding places every now and then. Although she seems more childish she is in fact more mature than she appears. She knows more about what humans do than her sister does (although this doesn't stop her from believing Vince's stories.). Name: Freki Age: 15 Gender: Female Incarnation of: Freki (Not a god) Weapon: (None) Carries a staff but has little experience fighting. Picture:  Description: Geri's younger sister. She is very clumsy girl and not very perceptive. She spends little time in the human world because it doesn't interest her, unlike her sister Geri who is very interested. Herself and her sister are named after the wolves they are incarnations of, the reason for them not having a more humanly name is unknown at this time, but it seems to be out of choice. She speaks in a childish tone at times when around Vince but she speaks respectively and politely to everyone. Name: Hugin and Mugin Age: ??? Gender: ??? Incarnations of: (Not incarnations) Weapon: None Picture: (Don't have one) Description: The ravens which inform Odin of daily events around the world. Vince however never directly speaks to them or even sees them, despite being the incarnation of Odin. Instead Hugin and Mugin inform Freki and Geri of major events or disturbances and they inform Vince if necessary.    |

Sounds very interesting!! I didn't understand this though: "usually sends Freki or Geri to get messages from one god or person to another. Uses his Draupnir and sells the 8 extra rings created every 9 nights for money which he then uses for his pleasure." Am I missing something here? Is this RP based on something else, or is it entirely made by you?  |

@Eureka- The gods and items are from Norse mythology. The story is being done entirely by me. Draupnir is Odin's gold ring, it creates 8 new rings every 9th night. Freki and Geri are Odin's wolves (Although in this RP I am personifying them as young girls) and Gungnir is Odin's Javelin. Don't worry about that stuff, I'm not using mythology to base the story, events or anything like that, and you don't need to know too much about it. |

Name: Zatsuon Age: 21 Gender: Male Incarnation of: Loki Weapon: (In the case of Odin and Thor, they must use their respective weapons, such as Thor using a hammer type weapon.) Ummm.... Can I make up one? (will delete if I can't) Uses a huge scythe, not unlike the one that Light has on the cover of Death Note volume one. Picture:  Okay, so it's the Japanese band Ellegarden. So what? :P (The guy on the far right is who I want)Description: Is almost always fooling around, and sometimes goes through cronic depression. It doesn't keep him from having fun, and getting into trouble, though. Likes to go out partying and drinking every once and a while. He loves to take photographs of things he sees in every day life. How's that? |

That's fine, and yes you can make your own weapon. Odin and Thor are the only incarnations in which you can't. |

Name: Tenku Ayamari Age: 20 Gender: Dude! Incarnation of: Ullr Weapon: (hehe dont mind if I use an unconventional weapon? ^^') Turtle Erasers (snall thrown projectiles he enchants before throwing, can cause a variety of affects depending on what he chants) He keeps a small dagger for close range combat. Picture:  Description: A freelance "Magican of Justice". Tanku has been traveling about doing freelance work to keep him going. He carries around a large amount of turtle shaped erasers he carries in fannybacks around his waist. They can become leathal weapons when enchanted with a quick chant and thrown at an oppenent. The effects are primarily explosions, but he can add elemenal effects by adding a couple words to his chants. Along with his strong throwing arm and firm understanding of physics and gravity, he is able to throw them quickly and accurately. He's always running about hunting for a job, (or the nearest racoon)but he manages to do both quite sucessfully. Occasionally he gets the itch to have a toe to toe match against a difficult opponent for some reason.   |

She acts mature and studious during the day... but at night, the party girl comes out.

She even works at a nightclub, as a bartender. She has an awesome figure and is an amazing dancer. No one knows her "night" side, and she does not tell anyone either, infact, she conceals it. She also rides a motorcycle (yay for chariot)... only at night, or when there's an emergency. Everything is concealed under that uniform... As for personality, you'll find out. ^^ |

Cuz then I have a picture in mind. ^^ Now, a general inquiry: Do all of the gods know eachother, or do we later meet? (whacks herself for too many questions) Arigatou! *bows* @Freya: LOL, I was researching Norse mythology and I saw that... and I was like, HEY, FREYJA! and now.. here you are! ^_^ |

@Ryoko- Alright. There is no 'god form'. You can just do godly things in human form. Although if you do want to add one you can go right ahead. That goes for everyone. (In fact, I think I may add one myself.) All of the god's know eachother but some of them not on a personal level. They know who all the incarnations are and can tell when they run into one, but they don't know appearance or on personal levels (Unless your characters work out that way, that's up to you. ----Starting Now---- ~Somewhere over Germany~ Vince: *blocking a spike and then cutting another in half with his Gungnir* ????: *jumping up from the ground and turning it's arm into a spike* Vince: *makes a swift slash across, cutting ???? in half. remains floating above ground* Just what are these things. . . *sighs and turns* I've had enough of this for one night. I'm heading back to Japan. |
