WELCOME to the WORLD of GODS.
Too bad the world is about to end.

In our modern era, deities of all pantheons are fading out of existence as humanity marches on towards a godless age.The foolish mortals insane enough to realize this recognized it was a pedestal to barter for power with the once mighty masters of the universe; the Gods' dependency on mortal worship now in favor of the governed as leverage. But as always, hubris was the catalyst to the End; not only to man's downfall, but that of the world as we know it.

Across the world, mythologies and their pantheons have long been passed down through the ages, beginning with their creation stories and ending with their prophecies of destruction. The Gods and the tales of their powerful feats were once regarded and revered but as humanity grew independent of ancient beliefs, the old deities have long lost relevance and power. In its ignorance of the legends of old, humanity overlooked a key detail.

All myths, pantheons of beings and beasts, are apart of the same universe; and the Armageddon each prophesied is one and the same, the true end of the world.

THE GOOD NEWS:
The Gods are very much real, and in the height of their worship, they even interacted and intervened among humans.Your character has been mysteriously chosen by a five gods from the same pantheon as their vessel, pouring the vestiges of their power into you as a last resort.

When making your character, you may choose the mythological pantheon of your choice; your character should come from the same region your pantheon is based. When you do, you will select five gods of that pantheon to create the primary powers of your character. A sixth god will be chosen for a single extremely powerful ability that can be used only under the worst circumstances; its use should have consequences on your character as well.

You may choose however your character interacts or communicates with their gods, but have fun with it. Channeling their abilities into your character is a connection between god and mortal. They will experience what your character does, seeing life from the point of view of a mortal in the 21st century.

We are looking for 3-4 more people for this RP. Norse, Egyptian, and Aztec mythology have already been chosen.

THE BAD NEWS:
This is all to prevent the end of the world. It began when one foolish mortal who summoned and made a deal with 7 gods from different patheons, each one the worst of the worst of their mythos. And in bad guy fashion, rather than channeling their powers to their mortal counterpart according to the contract, they totally possessed his body instead; repeating the process until each evil god had his or her own possessed mortal body, creating an alliance of evil deities to bring about Armageddon and reclaim the ravaged world as their own.

Once you have chosen your pantheon, you will designate the antagonistic god of your mythology.

These villains aren't the only thing our characters will face. The mythical beasts of legend lurk about too.

NOTES:
This RP will have a discord server to easily communicate. I will post the server link once all roles have been filled. This is the CS.

(✕Up to 5 normal powers and a sixth power, like a special move. This sixth power can be slightly overpowered, as it MUST also weaken the user in some way. Powers are susceptible to nerfs by mods. We may also suggest that you buff a power if we feel it is too weak. You do not have to buff your characters if you don't want to.)

I'm interested! Can I claim Roman mythology if no one has yet?
