The Rules of the Gods and Divine Beings

Rule One:

Human and animal avatars are not allowed to any extreme powers, nor are they allowed to be extremely powerful to begin with. The avatars from the gods are meant to view the world as it is, before taking their information back to the other Gods and Goddesses for them to discuss and take part in decided actions.
However, the avatars are allowed to have something that connects them to their godly form whether it be something such as a scar, a marking, or even a minor power. Avatars do not know that they are avatars of a God however. They most likely will be religious affiliated with their said god, but will NOT realize that they are an avatar. The Gods may contact their avatar forms while the avatar is asleep, and when the avatar awakens they will believe it is all a simple dream.

A MINOR POWER DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN GOD-MODE OR HAVE UNBELIEVABLE POWER. You cannot control other characters, be irresistible, have ungodly strength, control elements to extremes (i.e. causing catastrophes) or be plain old extraordinary. Avatars are essentially normal people, who may have abilities that are unknown to themselves (but not the Roleplayer) and only come out in extraordinarily extreme situations. Don’t abuse this, or your god character, avatar, and all that fun stuff you are privileged to will be taken away and you won’t be getting them back.


Rule Two:

Human and animal avatars are normal people/animals. They can be killed with the consent of the roleplayer of the person who has the god character and avatar. However, they will not be reborn instantly or as the same person. When an avatar is killed, they will require at the very least a two (Real-life) days before they can be brought back. The avatars are reborn as reincarnations, meaning they won’t be exactly the same as their previous form. This is a protection measure to ensure that the God-killers cannot find them as easily as they might have done before. However, the avatars can remain similar to their previous forms and retain markings that designate them as Avatars of the Gods.

Rule Three:

Any and all actions that are decided by the Gods and Goddesses are done based on majority, including the Captain or Vice Captain. Both have veto power. No one person is allowed to act out on their own, or without permission from the others. Should a single God/Goddess in the council decide that an action is not to be done, it won’t continue forward and will be in turn vetoed. This rule is final. IF you break this rule, you will most likely lose your God/Goddess and not be allowed to have one again.

Rule Four:

Gods and Goddesses have to follow all of the regular rules, which ironically includes God-modding.

Rule Five:

Gods and Goddesses have no actual contact with the other world, they instead have avatars for this reason both animal and human alike. They are not allowed to interact with the characters unless it has been decided in a unanimous vote for yes by all the other Gods/Goddesses. However, they do have their own area or domain where they reside and are allowed to explore. Please refrain from having your Gods/Goddesses attempt to ‘enter’ the other world. If it happens, we most likely will delete your post and warn you to refrain from doing so again.

Rule Six:

Those who are affiliated with a certain God and/or Goddess are allowed to pray to them in hopes of being looked upon as worthy to receive a blessing. This will be done through rolling a one 100-sided dice. If the numbers is from one of the randomly created numbers, then they are deemed worthy of a blessing from their deity. You are not allowed to be automatically blessed by the gods if you don’t roll one of the numbers. If you do, you’ll lose the privilege of being able to receive a blessing and could get a warning. Continue to do so could be a ban-able offense from the guild. You will not receive a blessing of your choice. The god/goddess your character is devoted to chooses the minor blessing. If you are not happy with this, then politely refuse the blessing and continue on but do NOT act inappropriately because you haven’t received a blessing you want.

☛ AN IMPORTANT NOTE: ☚
If you have a God character, don’t make your other characters affiliated with your god in attempts to make your character powerful or ‘blessed’ or chosen or whatnot. It won’t work like that, and this could just be considered god-modding and highly annoying to others. You still have to follow any and all rules which apply to the gods, and other deity’s are able to still shoot your decisions down.


Rule Seven:

Characters are allowed to worship a certain God or Goddess, and allowed to pray to their deity. Praying may result in a given blessing when they deem you worthy. This occurs through the rolling of a single 100-sided die. If you manage to get the set numbers, then your character shall receive a blessing from your deity who believes they are worthy. However, no one is automatically blessed or a holy character thought to be a messenger of the God. This is not allowed and will not be tolerated. You must get one of the set numbers. You also do not get to choose a blessing. You will get a minor blessing from your character’s deity and they will choose it. You are allowed to roll two times per day. One you get blessed you cannot get another blessing. Your deity may become aggravated and may even deliver you a curse believing you are unworthy of a blessing, and are praying simply out of personal greed.
