Lords of Creation - anyone interested in playing a god?


Forum Games


So, I was wondering if anyone here would be interested in joining a game of Lords of Creation?

Lords of Creation Wiki with rules etc

It's a forum game / play by post RPG wherein players play gods. It's similar to Dawn of Worlds, but with more focus on the individual characters.

A summary of the rules is as follows:
Each player is a god with certain domains. Each week, the gods gain a certain number of action points, which can be spent to do awesome godly things such as create continents or planes, turn some flowers into a sentient species of flowerpeople etc. Outside of that, each god can also act freely much like a very powerful mortal character, you know simply RP'ing a god.

Lords of Creation has a much more open "round" than many PF PbP's; it's basically "first come first serve" and the game-changing actions are limited per week rather than per round. This, in combination with a storyline created by all involved players rather than a precreated plot by a GM means that the game is much more open to varying amounts of dedication; it's okay to post once a week, or ten times a day, and players can come and go a bit as they please (not completely like that but not far from).

The game doesn't have a GM directly, but a few players take upon themselves to be referees/mods to reach a decision when there is a dispute (more than one player should be a referee since referees shouldn't mod themselves).

I've never played it before, but would be really interested in doing that; however, most games on GitP seems to be dead. This is mostly an interest check; I'm very willing to host and mod a game (if more people are interested) but first I want to know if there actually are other people interested.

I'm game.


Schweet! We would need to be at least 4 or so to kick it off I think :3

You should check out the wiki and the rules; they are quite simple, at least to anyone who visit these forums.

EDIT: IMPORTANT: I pasted the wrong link in the OP, that leads to an outdated wiki for the game. This is the correct wiki:

And these are the rules: Rules


Looks quite interesting. I'd be willing to take a stab at it.


Schweet; it seems to also be one interested in the sister thread I made in the PbP forum. When I get a definite there we could start it :)

Though of course more people are free to join - this isn't really a game that has an upper limit on how many could play.

Is anyone else interested in moderating the game beside me? It's nice to have at least two mods. Though of course we could all four act as mods, and simply that those not involved in a dispute moderate it.


I'd be fine with being a mod, Ilja.


The actual recruitment post with character sheet etc is up now - head over to this thread to apply :)

OOC thread will open tomorrow, game will start on tuesday.

I can't access this thread - it's keeps claiming I've made too many requests to the server too quickly or something. (:(

The URL might have changed as it got registered as a proper campaign.

Here is the recruitment thread.
Here is the discussion/OOC thread.
Here is the game thread, though we haven't really started yet.

We're still recruiting more players so if you're interested you just need to apply. I can't change the OP of the recruitment thread, so the starting parameters are down in the threads, but they are basically we all start as fledgling deities with two domains, and advancement can be done only after 6 weeks of play and having gotten the proper amount of domains. Oh, and you need two mods approval to join. Mods are me, Steven, and Rashly.

On reflection, I think I've got more I want to do than I can handle as is. I'll remember it's here, though.
