I forgot to put a starting point for my character, at the beginning, he'll be leaving an inn at some port.
I'm still writing my character, but I'm watching south park at the same time so I'm a bit distracted.

So, is sigh-ups on purpose, or a typo?
The flesh is weak!

Does that really matter?
The Fantabulous
If it's not a typo it may be an interesting comment on the sign-ups so far,though I somewhat doubt that is the case. I figure Zia will probably start either in the village or at her home.

This is actually going pretty well so far, so more of a sigh of relief if anything. Though bringing that up, we can freely change or modify what words means for Gods' Champions. That, and tidbit, the Ain is taken from Gain & Drain to represent the fact it easily comes and goes.
Regarding starting points, I'm working on the opening and would like to set up/establish events in a character's vicinity. Further information to work with would be helpful (like specifying whether the port Ignace is at has traders or is a fishing community), though I'll make things work either way.
What do you guys think of the Bloodied Rose Chain claiming Marked have been given their powers by "so-called divinity", with them having no quarrels about capturing and selling them as a result? In addition, just to make sure everyone is clear, fifteen and sixteen is the youngest (and general reference) that someone called a young wo/man would be.

Sounds cool to me - An interesting plot could be afoot with that, methinks. Which do you think would be better for my character to start? In town or at home? The town will be largely at your discretion if I go with that. She'd probably be picking up some supplies from the farmers there or healing a customer.

It's supposed to be a major trading port with the Eastern Continent. I like the town idea better for your character.

I think so too... Hmm, I'd say she'd be picking up some supplies (bread, herbs, etc.) and maybe getting annoyed for healing services. The town itself would be a few houses and shops with probably a market for the farmers, most of the locals living on nearby farms... unlikely to be very advanced in their methods. She'd be the only local healer.

Posted my profile here.
That's what I'm signing in with. Tell me if there are any problems, especially with me using Bestial in my backstory.
The Prince of Foolish Relevations
Fine by me, but can you name what snake(s) his abilities & form is based off? I would also like to know about his snake companions and what he thinks of his fellow Beastkin & Bestial herself (before and after discovering her true nature). Besides that, as a bounty hunter would you say he frequents Einheit's City Guard then? Requests tend to be strew about the numerous taverns there, but high paying & high risk missions are often found at the Guard.

I can't wait for our game to get started
Re: Skills and Abilities. Most of those with the exception of the venom are just things that are a hallmark of all snakes ie, a snake that cannot hunt by tracking via scent if one exists would be the exception not the norm for snakes, same with shedding and hiding. Also Snake Charming isn't a snake trait, rather one humans use on snake, all snakes are cold blooded, they are reptiles after all. However I'll say that the fast acting venom that can kill a man is a trait of the Black Mamba. It's famous for it. Is that what you want me to add?
The Prince of Foolish Relevations
Well, its not exactly like Bestial has to obey any physical or biological laws anyways. Though that would be good to put down. Besides that, Justanid, how close to Einheit would you say your character is?
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."
I edited the back story (added maybe two sentences overall about Bestial and Beastkin). I left the skills alone mostly, I don't know what saying the venom was based on a Black Mamba would add to anything overall.

I tried to leave that open in case you wanted to start everyone in the same area.

I kind of doubt we're going to start in the same place
The Prince of Foolish Relevations
Quite the opposite actually, as I would prefer the players to be in different locations so different events can be done. Mysteria and Gnomepolis would be good places for your character to stop by for example. By the way, if I put in the effort to make little theme songs for the Gods would anyone be interested?
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."
I have to say I prefer Background Music to a character Leitmotif; however, I like how both are used in Detroit Rock City. Maybe each god could have a Favored Instrument as an alternative?
As for starting location, Mysteria would probably work out best. They'd probably be there looking for a way to get separated defeat each-other, finding several ways that didn't work, and then getting the idea that maybe a god could help them both destroy the other one.

I like the favored instrument idea
The Fantabulous
Well, the use of a particular instrument, even in background music, could be considered a leitmotif. I like these ideas...

Are you sure you want us to act independently of each other at first? GM.
The Prince of Foolish Relevations
Well, I wouldn't be opposed to people working together, but I would be disappointed if nobody wanted to explore outside Einheit. I'll start the RP sometime tomorrow, by the way. Regarding instruments, I would say the West is a bit lacking. In fact the word Art is short for Artificial there, and is commonly used to reference artificial lifeforms. Though what I wanted to go for was a little thing that sums up their personality. I'll figure it out later.
"The Omniverse is the collection of all possibilities, and all possibilities must eventually come to pass."
The reason I ask is because I kind of want to meet up with someone and create a catalyst that leads us to explore, like some event that forces the characters to move on, or some kind of goal to work toward caused by outside events. Something triggers an action like most plots have.
Like the title suggests, the players are eventually going to aid the Gods. To go with that, the RP opens one week until the Divine Gathering at the Western capital Einheit and all kinds of villainy is picking up. There's no singular villain or plotline to follow as a result, with plenty of mysteries & secrets. Besides the information listed in my posts, pretty much any idea or character will work.
