While waiting for my brother to liberate the tv, I took the liberty of designing a god of my own since I was bored and I remember Josie was talking about making a site about it... and I'm random like that. X3
So, here's my snow leopard god of Silence. I'm probably going to change his name though, since I don't like that one...
He can walk on a cushion of air, therefore never touching the ground and never making a sound when he walks. He is physically incapable of making most sounds, including talking, burping, farting and what not, but he can manage high-pitched noises like a light yowl, a purr and a hiss. Instead, he communicates telepathically and makes facial expressions. He can also use the paper incantations hanging from his body to communicate but projecting words and images on them, particularly the one hanging from his mouth. They are also his power source, so if the one on his mouth gets cut off or damaged, he looses the ability to make any noises at all. If the one on his neck goes, he can no long speak telepathically and the others... well, I'll leave that a secret for you all. ;3
Those are all the abilities I have effectively figured out for him at the moment... but I have a few other god ideas and designs in my head so I might not even use him. But, since my brother remains in control of the television, I have the opportunity to draw some more anyway. *runs off*
Achackote- Lion god of Doom or Dread, I can't really pick which...
He was kinda a spur of the moment thing, so I don't know much about him yet but I do know he has no eyes under all that hair. No pupils, no eyeballs, not even sockets, just smooth skin where his eyes should be and a dark shadow cast by his eyebrows. But, no eyes... and I don't know why... I do know that the pad lock around his neck cannot be unlocked, sealed forever like someone's "fate". There is a key to it but no one knows where it is. It is said that if the lock is undone and the chain is flipped over and turned inside out, that even death can turn backward. Evil becomes good and good to evil, day to night and night into day, the moon and the sun switch their places in time and... all that fun stuff... Most importantly, Achackote will cease to exist. So the life of a mortal can be saved but only at the cost of the life of the god himself.
Then of course, there's the feeling of dread that follows him around in the form of a dark mist, strong enough to drive sane men crazy and throw women into a fit of tears and screams. But he never does anything, I don't think. Doom/dread is just a feeling that accompanies death but it never actually kills... at least, not physically... So, I figure, he'd warn others of impending disaster but never do anything to prevent it or anything like that...
Fun fun. ^^ Don't whine about the pad lock "blowing in the wind". I didn't want to try and fit it in with all that hair...
Indeed he is. ^^ And I love the CG work that went into creating him. That movie should've gotten an award for its special effects, honestly. The facial expressions, the workmanship in the rendering and shadows when he was walking through the woods at night, it boggles my mind...
Thiabolos- Hyena God of Damage (ignore that it says Destruction in the pic X3) He will eat your babies...
Not much to explain here. He's just the god that goes around hurting people, places and things, causing damage obviously and wreaking havoc as he sees fit. He can do so in a number of different ways, since almost everything about him is catered to causing damage (hence the spiked collar, horns and crazy teeth). The most notorious method he possesses is eye contact. It is said that If one were to look this god directly in the eye, after 6 seconds, you'd be blind, your eyes permanently damaged forever. However, one must remember that the gods are indiscriminate, and he is, therefore, perfectly capable of damaging himself just as much as he may damage you. For example, if he were to stare into the eyes of his reflection for 6 seconds, he'd go blind as well and that effect would be nullified.
I love his design so much... Not as much as the God of Silence however... o.O
I have stood here before inside the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign But it's my destiny to be the king of pain
Haha, I LOVE them. <3 I replied to your PM about the site, it may be a few weeks before it goes up because I'm staying at a friend's house this weekend. But if I find some time after school I may do it this week. =3
Wow, River, you've outdone yourself! These guys are AWESOMEly overbearing/badass/godly/everything. TOTALLY sweet. I can't wait to see what these guys turn into and come together to be!
The Bird of Hermes is my name, Eating my wings to make me tame
Okay, my god of silence has some serious competition with this guy. He's the god of thieves (which is awesome) from my two favorite civilizations: Egypt and Japan, hence the two names. The first, Chigaru is what the Egyptians called him and means Hound. The other, Touzoku is what the Japanese called him and means Thief.
I shorten it to Chitou... X3
I have no idea what kind of abilities he has but he's a god of friggin' thieves so you know they're going to be awesome things like walking through walls or fly or something wicked like that. Stuff that can help him steal, basically. But he annoys the other gods and was sealed away back in the time of ancient Egypt so busy could be handled uninterrupted. He was, ironically enough, sealed in a shrine in Japan, which he promptly escaped from being a god of thieves and quite the lock picker. So, that's how he became known in two places....
Other stuff, I don't know but come on! look at him! he's friggin' wicked. X3 And all based around some of my favorite quotes from the best anime ever, next to Yuyu Hakusho and IGPX...
"To a thief, something you see is something you can steal... If getting everything you want is all there is to being a king, then as king of thieves, I truly am the king of kings." - Yami Bakura, Yugioh: millennium World Vol.4, pg 41 to 42
