History Roleplay / YeGods

* {{The Power of Blood}}: Blood magic can be used for healing, combat, and making temporarily-existing, magically-charged items.

* {{The Power of Blood}}: Blood magic can be used in advanced healing techniques and to make temporary, magically charged items.

* {{Person of Mass Destruction}}: Not even counting all the Gods, at least two known Archangels have abilities on par with nuclear weapons. Tykki and Kyloth come to mind.

* {{GemEncrusted Gem-Encrusted]]: Gem Dragons are literally this.

* {{Gem-Encrusted}}: Gem Dragons are literally this.

* {{Orwellian Retcon}}: [[http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=144651.msg5836940;topicseen#msg5836940 Yaos' exchange with the Void]].

* {{All Planets are Earthlike}}: Played straight, initially, with the only two planets being Earthlike and each having a real life-style moon. Since then, two gas giants have been made with 30 moons each.

* {{Physical God}}: The premise of the game.

* {{Our Dragons are Different}}: Star Dragons are nocturnal, Gem Dragons love hoarding riches and are coated in a strong coat of gems, Ikakus fire energy beams out of their mouths, Mountwyrms are humanoid dragons, Tailwyrms are Mountwyrms without the wings and with long tails, and Wyrms are small, non-sapient dragons with only two legs.

* {{Whatevermancy}}: Lawmancy, magmamancy have been explicitly named.

* [[NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering]]: The Council. Very few decisions actually get made, and even then a god will usually keep arguing against them.

* {{Resurrective Immortality}}: Played with. A god might revive in a weakened state if they made plans prior to their death or are revived by a friend. The latter method won't work if the god was [[DeaderThanDead permakilled]] and gods don't automatically come with Resurrective Immortality. If a god had no plans in place and was permakilled, nothing can bring them back beyond very uncommon events.

* {{Whatevermancy}}: Lawmancy and magmamancy have been explicitly named.

* {{Gods Need Prayer Badly}}: Gods are made out of Essence. A god gains Essence by being worshipped.

* {{Kill the God}}: As mentioned above, Yaos is the only active god to have been permakilled. Other Gods "die" from time to time, losing half their maximum essence, but so far have all either revived themselves or have a friend revive them.
** The gods that died after going inactive have been permakilled as well.
* {{Medieval Stasis}}: Has ''slowly'' been growing out of this with the advent of the printing press and alchemy.
* [[NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering]]
* {{Our Angels are Different}}: Angels exist in Ye Gods as servants of the god who made them. Their physical appearances on what their gods want them to be. To name a few examples, Yaos' were classical winged Humans, Azem's Shiny Ones are Mountwyrms, and some of Darruth's are based on [[EldritchAbomination/MythologyAndReligion biblical angels]].

* {{Person of Mass Destruction}}: Not even counting all the Gods, at least two known Archangels have abilities on par with nuclear weapons. Tykki and Kloth come to mind.

* {{Rasputinian Death}}: It took six successful attempts before Yaos stayed dead, mostly by using {{Resurrective Immortality}}.

* {{Resurrective Immortality}}: Played with. A god might revive in a weakened state if they made plans prior to their death or are revived by a friend. That second method won't work if the god was [[DeaderThanDead permakilled]] and gods don't automatically come with Resurrective Immortality. If a god had no plans in place and was permakilled, nothing can bring them back.
* {{They Killed Kenny Again}}: The other gods entirely stopped caring after Yaos' first couple of revivals.

* {{Xanatos Speed Chess}}: Oh boy. Due to the implied rule forbidding public war against gods (and the explicit rule against killing gods), dozens of plans and counter-plans are played behind the scenes, leaving those uninvolved with only minor context clues and sometimes the aftermaths of said plans.

* {{Person of Mass Destruction}}: Not even counting all the Gods with humanoid forms, at least two known Archangels have abilities on par with nuclear weapons. Tykki and Kloth come to mind.

* {{Not-So-Omniscient Council of Bickering}}

* {{All Planets are Earth-Like}}: Played straight, initially, with the only two planets being Earth-like and each having a real-life style moon. Since then, two gas giants have been made with 30 moons each.

* {{Blue And Orange Morality}}: Every god with its own.

* {{Deus Ex Machina}}: Everything that happens in the game is essentially this by default.

* {{Kill The God}}: As mentioned above, Yaos is the only active god to have been permakilled. Other Gods "die" from time to time, losing half their maximum essence, but so far have all either revived themselves or have a friend revive them.

* {{TheyKilledKennyAgain}}: The other gods entirely stopped caring after Yaos' first couple of revivals.

* {{Resurrective Immortality}}: Played with. A god might revive if they made plans prior to their death or are revived by a friend, though always in a weakened state. That second method won't work if the god was [[DeaderThanDead permakilled]].

* {{Resurrective Immortality}}: Played with. A god might revive if they made plans prior to their death or are revived by a friend. That second method won't work if the god was [[DeaderThanDead permakilled]].

* {{Rasputinian Death}}: It took six successful attempts before Yaos stayed dead, mostly due to every god's {{Resurrective Immortality}}.

* {{Dark Is Not Evil}}: YMMV on Malakath. She regularly [[YourSoulIsMine eats people's souls]], is covered in a red aura, [[RedEyesTakeWarning her eyes glow red]], she wears black plate armour, she ate a pair of angels as her very first action...yet she is one of the gods that firmly labels herself as 'good'.

* {{Dark Is Not Evil}}: Malakath. [[ThePowerOfBlood Goddess of Blood]], full name (and title) is 'Lord Malakath Vandire Sephir Lecta', regularly [[YourSoulIsMine eats people's souls]], covered in a red aura, [[RedEyesTakeWarning eyes glow red]], wears black plate armour, ate a pair of angels as her very first action....and is one of the gods that firmly labels herself as 'good'. She believes she's good because she helps people even if they don't worship her and she only eats evil souls.
** YMMV heavily on that one. See Blue and orange Morality above. Especially considering her darker actions, such as destroying random Golem souls. Keep in mind it is Malakath's player writing the above...
** She destroyed those Golems because they killed her angels, then tried to revive the Golems, apologised when she couldn't, and she's ''actively trying'' to be good. Even if she's not good, she's definitely not evil.

* {{God of Good}}: Darruth

* {{Gun Nut}}: Fusil, God of Weapons. As the game is set in a mostly-medieval fantasy world, he and his Angels are the only ones who have access to them.
** It's been maybe possibly hinted at that muskets may or may not have been invented.
* {{Jerkass Gods}}: In spades!
** The GM stated that every large catastrophe had a god responsible for them.

* {{Rasputinian Death}}: It took six successful attempts before Yaos stayed dead.
** Though the attacks happened at different times, with Yaos using his {{Resurrective Immortality}} to come back, a bit weaker every time.

** It's been possibly maybe hinted at that muskets may or may not have been invented.
