This is where players can ask questions, taunt/rage at their rivals without worrying about being in character and so forth.
i also ask players re-post their God Sheets here and also include a name and description of Their first messenger.

Sophazia, Goddess of wisdom. Sophazia is a goddess of knowledge, she started out as a goddess worshiped by philosophers, scientists and many people concerned with learning, she is most known for the eternal library, an infinite place where all knowledge of the world is stored and where she gathers all the literature, scriptures and books written. (part about the library needs a yes word cause it would mean she knows allot of the techs and stuff) Ceridwen; messenger of Sophazia: There once was an age where knowledge was shunned and the worshippers of Sophazia were burned on the stake, books were burned on bonfires and all that followed her were declared a witch, her power was dwindling and both she and the world were risking falling into an age of regression where they would never advance. She knew she would have to do something lest her power would shrink too much It was then that she created Ceridwen, she was a lamia, half human half snake, She was to go and spread learning once more and to enlighten the world, she visited the western part of the world where the largest amount of burning and knowledge was concentrated she approached the largest city in the western part where a council of priests ruled the world, calling all other gods false gods, she stood in front of the main gate asking for entry to the city, the guards in their ignorance could only identify her as a monster and so ran inside the city where arches started to bombard her, such mortal weapons could of course not hurt a messenger of a god so she stood there In front of the gate asking each person seeking entry into the town the same riddle, "There are two sisters: one gives birth to the other and she, in turn, gives birth to the first. Who are the two sisters?" All those that answered incorrectly devoured for they were not the once she was looking for. On the sixth day of the sixth week of the sixth month there once more was a traveler who arrived at the gates, and Ceridwen repeated the riddle, Only this time to be surprised as the traveler had the answer; "They are day and night" she said. The lamia smiled as she had found the one destined to lead the church back to glory, there was a simple point of contact, a handshake but through that the knowledge needed to return the world on the path to enlightenment was vested in the traveller and she was told to use this wisdom and Sophazia’s guidance to reestablish the church. 30 years later the church of Sophazia had reappeared slowly spreading knowledge once more and putting a stop the misinformed witch hunts the people had been performing. Ceridwen, She is said to often look with pity in her eyes for humanity has so much more to learn and most only throw the chances away in favor of going to war, this is one of the reasons why she often is said to disdain males. Das sheet is posted.

Toth, Lord of Death
The Carrion King, The Reaper of Souls, The Watcher in the Void "I am the King of Kings and the end of all life. Gaze upon my work, ye mighty, and despair." -Toth, speaking through the Prophet Kuzariel, to the 4 Lords of Hjoldstadt Just as there is life, so too must there be death. It is the natural end to things, a balance to keep the forces of man and nature in check. Death is not evil. Just as a hurricane bears no hatred to the lives it ruins and a plague carries no anger against the people it strikes down, death simply does not care for the machinations of man. It is cold, it is impartial, and often it seems unfair. Because of this, mortals tend to fear death as something frightening and unknown. Consequently, Toth's godhood is a lonely one. No mighty nations march to war in his name. No soaring cathedrals chant his praise to the sky. Few followers fill the streets, screaming his name in their ecstatic devotion. But Toth does not care. That mortals die is offering enough to sustain him and the shadow of his passing is evident everywhere. He spends the eons in his shadowy realm of Mori, keeping an eternal tally of the dead and occasionally intervening in the mortal world to ensure that the natural balance of life and death is maintained. That is not to say Toth is without worshippers. Wherever you find death and suffering, so too will you find devotees of the Carrion King. Some worship him in a futile attempt to stave off death. Others embrace their mortality wholeheartedly, gleefully exhorting the virtues of death to any who will listen. Toth rarely listens to the prayers of his followers, yet many still see his messages conveyed through natural disasters, plagues, and particularly gruesome deaths. Toth remains neutral in most conflicts, godly or otherwise. Only in self defense or times of great need will he raise his scythe against a fellow deity. As is the same with mortal wars. The only thing that Toth and his followers will take an aggressive stance against is undeath and its practicers. To master death is to commit the greatest of blasphemies and Toth will not rest until the twisted souls of those who do are condemned to eternal purgatory, unable to pass into the realm of their patron god.

Uh, one question. If a mod could put my images and sheet stuff here, since with my crappy internet, that'd take me around half an hour. Though here is my first messenger The Iron Prince The second son of King Vagar the Golden of Dainmark, who is himself High King of the northland, Madderung Bearkiller is known more commonly as the Iron Prince. He is Volsungr's greatest messenger, bestowed with the eternal brand of His Mark upon claiming his first life, a great northern dire-bear that he slew when he was six years old. The Iron Prince leads the raiding parties more often than not, and though young, few have seen his face, as he is wont to wear the bearskin headress at all times, and everyone in the land goes in fear of him.

Torga, Lord of LiesTorga is the Lord of Lies and trickery and takes great pleasure in luring mortals astray from their path and towards his plans but nobody knows what he plans for them in the end. Torga resides in the Realm of Whispers and lies pulling the stings and spinning lies to any and all that communicates with him. Mortals depict Torga as a withered skeleton or man wrapped in a tattered robe and wearing a mask made of black iron but nobody has ever seen the God instead they have heard his whispers. ----------------------------------- Jauy, Prince of Deceit. On of Torga's many liars and deceivers but Jauy is one of the newest pieces to Torga's game, he sees mortals as play things and nothing more and that they are the perfect tools for a power struggle.

What's the fastest way to generate as much faith as possible? Not sure if you can powergame really, i guess a combination of shrine spam and mass conversion though.

It's not powergaming because I'd be neglecting most other factors to bulk up on faith

What's the fastest way to generate as much faith as possible? probably to convert a large number of pepole, possibly witha Phrophet. I also notice i neglected to place the standard Faith generation your followers do simply by believing. That's what i get for posting it at stupid o'clock i guess. I'll sort that out now. A note on Messengers, while its fine that they could have once been mortal, it best to think of them as extensions of your God. They are essentially your Angels.
