Hmmm..I would think an unfathomable alien thing wouldn't concern itself with the concept of gender....


Law, Community, Artifice, and Nobility I would like to think.

Grand Lodge

All the best ones. Why be a cleric of anyone else? I have all your min-maxing needs!


Negligence, Humor and Maturity. (Look, if a deity can't invent their own domains, I just don't see the point.)

Waffles would be my domain. And I'd invite you all to worship every damn day. It'd be glorious.

... and scrumsious.


Zagreus, the Blue Warlock, Alignment: Neutral

Favored Avatar: Sir Robert the Carter, aka Trebor Retrac, aka Ehrich Incarno

God of Magic, Dreams, Force, Skepticism, and Trickery

Symbol: Eternal Knot

Worshippers: Those interested in magic, creativity, inspiration, truth, and judicious use of force against who would obscure the truth (subjective though that truth may be)

Knowledge
Luck

Clearly I'm a mere mythic hero and not a true deity.

Stuck in humanoid body and mind. That covers that part.


Tacticslion Lawful Good God of Talking, Cooperation, and Home
Titles: The Loquacious Helper, The Parental One, He Who Seeks Allies, The Distracted God, The Tired God
Holy Symbol: A Home, A Child, or Stylized Writing
Portfolio: Home and the Family, Children, Stories, Respect, Communication
Domains: Charm, Community, Healing, Luck, Travel
Subdomains: Cooperation, Family, Home, Lover, Restoration, Resurrection
Favored Weapon: Halberd

Tacticslion is a an overly talkative, yet ultimately reclusive deity. Although creative, he generally desires to work with others instead of create on his own. Interaction and assistance are key.

He teaches that learning is key, but individualized learning is just as important as mass learning. Cooperation and individualized assistance, especially when dealing with learning disabilities, is extremely important. Parents also need to have an active hand in education, and it is their responsibility to foster a desire for learning within their children. When dealing with ignorance, it is important that all cooperated to help - no one person is responsible for knowing all, but all are responsible for helping each to learn and grow.

One of his most important teachings is that of patience, kindness, and love between friends and community. Even in the face of disagreement, a lack of hatred and mutual respect. This is important for families and for friends. Love must come forth in the form of respect. Dialogue must be held and listening is extremely important. Open forums of communication without prejudice or cruelty is necessary for a society to flourish.

Stories are an important method of education and enlightenment. Finding the proper method around a person's self-created or socially-built barriers to enable stories to foster growth and understanding. Not all stories are good, and some are wroth nothing but derision, but all can be useful to learn something.

Faith and hope, subservient to the concept of love, is what is most important, above all things. Seeking to find the Truth, and forever pointing to the Highest One, Tacticslion is a worshiper of the Lord of Lords. He seeks that all follow this greater One.

Although he seeks the good of all, his tendency to ramble indefinitely can be grating or cause his message to be lost in the preponderance of words he uses. His old fashioned ways combined with his tendency to ignore some traditions wins him some friends in balance, but oft causes him to clash with those who are either more traditional or more liberal, regardless of their alignment.

======================================================================

(Heehee, I totally snuck a pun in there. I'm so subtle.)

Charm (Love) - I am a strong proponent of Enchantment magic as non-evil. I strongly embrace the idea of love as Good.

Community (Cooperation, Family, Home) - I am entirely all about cooperation and community (though I'm pretty bad at getting such things together); being a stay-at-home dad, Family and Home are just... natural fits.

Healing (Restoration, Resurrection) - I'm big on healing, restoration, and resurrection. This is just a thing. Also, I give massages and generally am able to make people feel better. I was often told to be a doctor (though I wasn't).

Luck - I want luckiness. I want it a lot. And sometimes it works great!

Travel - I've traveled a lot in my life. By being the son of a missionary, I've crossed most of the U.S. (missing only Alaska), been to Mexico, many countries in Europe, as well as several in Asia. I've yet to visit Africa.

Favored Weapons: I'd also like the Nodachi or Revolver, but somehow don't think those are considered "options" here.

Other Domains: Really there's so many I want. Too many!

I'd really want War (Tactics) and Animal (Fur) because of my name (though the latter is less important) but ultimately those go away in front of more important things.

I'd want Weather (with both Seasons and Storms subdomains) because I love the idea of weather, seasons, and storms. Stormy weather is my favorite.

Knowledge (both Memory and Thought) because I love information, I'm fascinated with memory and thinking; and Madness ('cause I'm at least slightly nuts).

Protection (both Defense and Purity) are also really important to me, but I figure with healing it can get better and resurrection kind of covers it all. Also, I'm big on privacy in many ways.

I really long for Magic (Arcane) 'cause I'm a big arcanist-type, but... most of my reasons for being Arcane boil down to wanting a better form of life for myself and those that are important to me.

I'd like Artifice and Darkness for thematic reasons, but, you know, it's not happening.

Don't wanna presume on Alignment domains... Best to leave that to outside judges.

Kinda hope I'd wind up with:

Darkness
Healing
Protection

If there's room for four non-alignment domains...Community or Water...torn...

Nah, you're Good. :)

I tend to feel similarly, but I chose non-alignment domains based off of 1) the Beyond Morality mythic ability and 2) while I prefer lawful good alignment (which is why it's listed in shiny letters up top!) and most "quizzes" put me fairly firmly in the "good" category, I'm suspicious of my own motives often enough that I don't know that I want to try to exemplify it.

Knowledge: I am an information junkie

Art: I am an artist, and I love art in its various forms from music and stoytelling to sculpture.
Dreams: I do love dreaming, and I'm a lucid dreamer
Games: I love games in their many forms as well from sports and computers to table top RPGs
And last but certainly not least Faith or Truth: which may seem like an odd choice for a goddess to believe in a greater being which created even her. But the spread of truth through faith is certainly something I would devote myself to if given such raw power.

Awesome! :D

Also, one of my titles should be "Killer of Threads", apparently.

Charm, Community, Good, Healing, Protection

Sub-domains: Love, Cooperation, Family, Home, Friendship, Redemption, Restoration, Defense, Purity


Domains: Law, Evil, Knowledge, Trickery

Subdomains: Judgment, Tyranny, Deception, Innuendo

Given that I'm the GM 95% of the time, those seem extremely appropriate. 8^D


(Borrowing Inner Sea Gods' format)

TerminalArtiste,
Seeker of the Wild's Secrets, Shield of the Wild's Children
Alignment: LG
Areas of concern: Knowledge, nature, conservation
Domains:
Animal (Feather & Fur subdomains) - I am passionate about all animals.
Good (Archon subdomain) - I'm a good-hearted person, with a very principled stance on certain issues.
Knowledge - I know a lot of different things, especially about animals and the natural world.
Law (Archon subdomain) - I'm an organized and rather fastidious person. I've even been told irl that I'd make a good librarian.
Protection (Purity & Solitude subdomains) - I am not a violent person, except in defence of those things I care strongly about. Kind of like a mother bear.
Favoured weapon: Club
Symbol: Shield, covered in stylized writing
Sacred animal: All of them.
Sacred colours: Purple and green (my favourite combination. Yes, I'm a knowledge god whose priests will look like Riddler rip-offs.)

TerminalArtiste is a font of information, especially with regards to the natural world. He will supply this information gladly, sometimes without even needing to be asked! He keeps a long list of those who would despoil the natural world, and dispatches agents across the planes to thwart them. After all, who has time to get their hands dirty when there's so much to catalogue and keep track of? He dwells in a small, quiet glade on the slopes of Heaven, surrounded by his books. He is served by hound archons, guardian nagas, and half-celestial animals of all types.
TerminalArtiste's most favoured servant is Voice-of-Wild-Places, an advanced trumpet archon who's horn turns into a club, and who casts spells as a 16th level druid. Voice additionally is able to speak with animals at will.

That got a little more in-depth than I intended. This is fun! Was difficult picking personality traits that would make a cohesive theme, though.


All of them. Every last one, and every subdomain. Also, all alignments could worship me, I'm not picky.

What? Greed is a sin after all.


Thomas Long
God of Destruction, Midnight's Last Breath
Alignment: CN
Areas of concern: Knowledge, power, freedom

Domains:
Knowledge - I enjoy not just learning, but exploring areas humanity hasn't
Demon - Earned this as a nickname after a lot of failed murder attempts against me
Revolution - Believe that revolution is the means to freedom and a system that is kept fresh and well moving
Madness - Doctors said this one
Night - Probably my favorite time of day, everything is quieter, more peaceful

Favored Weapon: Great Axe
Symbol: A charcoal black circle with bright red lines running in eratic shapes through it
Animal: Platypus
Colors: Black and red

Thomas Long is an eratic and whimsical creature who was said by his peers to have never been human in the first place. His early attempts at solitude failing, he took to violence and rage against the humans who attacked him until they left him in peace. Now he seeks refuge among those similar to him, gaining knowledge and simply watching as the world falls apart of its own accord.

Despite all this, he is not truly an evil creature, often many beings having stated that he has good and at times even lawful tendencies with a love of protecting the weak and a belief of strength being used only in fair matches against opponents worthy to face such strength.

His favored servant is Vrock, a barbarian of the ancient north. Badly scarred, this terrifying half orc walks the earth with an enormous great sword over his shoulder, working good deeds and freedom towards society, throwing off malevolent oppression by whatever means he deems necessary.
