    Don't make up a whole new mythology around your OC though. If your OC is some viking hero whose legend doesn't actually exist that's cool, but it's not cool if he's Lord McAwesome the 3rd, Master of Awesomeness from the Epic Country.

    Definitely interested then.

    There is only 8 slots. Even at just two people per faction I'm guessing this is about it.

    Nah there are actually eight.

    If one is empty that just means the NPCs have to pick up the slack.

    The "example members" listed are in the factions as NPCs among others.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The way organization works is that for each challenges I determine which factions are facing each others at random, and after each round I post the rankings in term of Divine Essence.

    If no PCs are involved I just determine the winner either by logic or randomly.

    Faction: Soldiers of Eternity
    Dogs, glory-seekers, warmongers. Of all the factions involved, it's probable that there are none who receive as many derogatory names as the Soldiers, yet at the same time there are none who are as feared. What the members of this faction wish for is for a world of mortality not unlike the previous one, where strife never ends and there are endless opportunities for them to battle and gain glory.

    Faction Leader: Duryodhana.
    Example Members: Ares, Achilles, Karna.
    Faction Ability: War Savagery - Those who wish to fight forever know that they cannot let injuries stand in their way. For each 10 points in your Faction Ability attribute, you may ignore one injury until the end of the turn in which it was inflicted.

    Faction: Anthropocentrism
    Not everyone is happy with the current state of affair. There are those who believe that the world existed for humans, and humans alone, and that the new world should represent that idea. This faction is composed almost exclusively of humans, though some monsters and gods who despise their own kind have joined, promising to be reborn as humans in the next world. Not all of their members necessarily hate the gods and monsters; some merely believe in the superiority of their magical traditions over religion, while others believe that the 'gods' are nothing but deceivers.

    Faction Leader: Sisyphus.
    Example Members: Trismegistus, Crowley, Prometheus, Fenrir.
    Faction Ability: Denial of Divinity - The faction ability of the Anthropocentric grant them advantage when directly opposing the supernatural powers of gods and monsters, scaling with the amount of points invested.

    In the interest of making sure there are at least some people on the same teams that will be it for playable factions, unless someone has a great idea that simply can't fit in any of them.

    Even if the author is silenced, the performance is stilled and the actors leave the stage, the story will never truly end.

    Regardless of the form it takes, as long as there are memories of it's existence, the story will continue on.

    In a small ward in the heart of a once devastated town, life carries on as it always has...

    Because of you.

    Please, remember it warmly.

    We'll continue to walk down this path for eternity.

    actually I'll post my sheet if it gets approved. Or denied I suppose. Only reason I didn't already is I wanted to make sure it didn't need work and was completed first.

    You can all have a laugh at one of the ridiculously bare bones sheets I use.

    GMs who have RPed with me are always shocked at my sub 1 page size sheets.

    With A Flaw in the Plan, could you do something like use it, walk behind someone, pop back into reality and stab them in the back? Can you use AFP, prepare a spell, flicker back in and cast the spell?

    Does resilience protect against damage caused by spells or does it only stop stuff being turned into a piece of cake.
