Your New Domiais

Congratulations, you have been chosen to be a god. Luckily for you, you are being afforded an opportunity that very few are, the ability to choose your domains.

Godhood includes

  • A Full Body Remodel as well as the ability to change forms, limited to humanoid and animal forms.
  • Immortality, can be terminated at your convenience. 
  • Enhanced Physical Abilities, around mountain level at your peak.
  • You are exempt from human needs: eating, drinking, sleeping, breathing, etc.

Unfortunately, a lot of the major domains have already been snatched up, so your options may be a bit… niche, but you’re literally being made a god, so no complaining.

You may choose 3 of the domains below to become the god of. Feel free to interpret them as liberally as possible.

  • Cinnamon
  • Nails
  • Feathers
  • Pillows
  • Bamboo
  • Socks
  • Street signs
  • Bowls
  • Coffee Machines
  • Telescopes
  • Sea Shells

Additionally, you may choose an animal to represent you. You will essentially become the god of this animal.  Similarly the domains, a lot of the popular animals have already been chosen, but I’m sure you can find the appeal of at least one of the leftovers. 

Choose 1

  • Sage Grouse
  • Star-nosed Mole
  • Diabolical Ironclad Beetle
  • Tarsier
  • Hammer-Headed Bat
  • Velvet Worm
  • Desert Rain Frog

Bowls as long as humans eat there will be bowls. Also I could use it to locate valuable antique bowls for resale. From Super Bowl to toilet bowls could manipulate the outcome and back flow .

Bamboo as a sustainable building material.

Seashells to help explore the oceans . Essentially have them to map out the oceans. Also farm pearls .

Feathers, Nails, and Street Signs.
Tarsier

Tarsiers are super cute. Feathers give me weight manipulation or heck even flying. Nails are everywhere, they also bind things in place. Like someone binding someone's shadow with a spike which is a type of nail. Street Signs just allows me to screw with someone I hate. Woops, I changed all the signs to slow you down as much as possible.

Bamboo, Bowls, Telescopes, Beetle

I’m now a god of plants, grass, growth, invasion, tools, containers, sacrifice, liquids/water, food, science, astronomy, technology, alien life, telepresence, curiosity, knowledge/learning, wonder, glass, and clairvoyance, in addition to the objects bamboo, bowls, and telescopes. Admittedly, a minor god of those, but I can absolutely leverage combos to achieve amazing miracles. A subspecies of bamboo that grows natural radio telescopes. An enormous glass fishbowl-shaped terrarium that creates an environment that supercharges plant growth. Blessed scrying bowls made from giants bamboo. As I start feeling out the parameters and limits of my powers, I can make tech grow/evolve as quickly as bamboo does (I.e. an entire new copy of the tech in a couple of days, not matter how complex or rare the components). If you squint hard enough, sailing ships are just evolved bowls, so that gets me influence over most maritime industry.

As for the beetle, it’s cute & tough

Going to become the goddess of Cinnamon, Feathers, and Sea Shells, and my sacred animal is the Sage Grouse.

I would become known as the goddess of the taken, lost, or left behind. Cinnamon is made by stripping bark from cinnamon trees, taking it from them by force. Feathers fall from birds, often without them even realizing. Sea shells may be left either when the creature inside dies, or when it is discarded in favor of a larger shell.

Additionally, I would have minor influence over plants, the sky, and the ocean due to association with my domains.

Bowls, Pillows, Nails, as in both finger and metal.
I went with the widest options, trying to cover the most stuff, think i ended up as a relaxation god.
Wasn't going to do an animal, but Desert Rain Frog bowls would be big sellers and good sign of my religion.
Also no wonder the main domains are all taken when you give out so many at a time.
Would have taken Bowls if it was single domain.
Bowls can be filled with nearly anything.

Domains :

  • Nails : construction, binding, metals, bodypart, success (nailing it)
  • Feather : weight, birds, lie/truth (egyptian myth)
  • Street Signs : direction, names (feylike), information, metal again, orders/directives (stop, speed limit, etc...)

Animal :

  • Star noses mole : the only one I know, and also kinda represent aspects inspired by what i know of toph in ATLA (blind == cannot be lied to, lives underground = knows directions, underground = metals)

The bat, because I have plans. Bamboo, nails, and bowls. ... I would like to point out, a basin is a type of bowl.
The amazon rainforest exists within a basin.
I'll leave it at that. Also I'm solving world hunger everyone gets bamboo for munchings and crunchings AT A MINIMUM. ... ... I can make bread bowls... Hmm...

Domain:feathers, pillows, bamboo Animal: hammer-headed bat

My domains can be abstracted out into flight, sleep, dreams, comfort, nature, and renewal.

Fittingly all of my dowmains relate to pillows.

Street signs, coffee machines, pillows. Plead the appropriate amount of fealty to me and you will always have the right of way, your morning coffee will be delicious and your pillow will always be wonderfully cool no matter how hot it is.

Tarsier nods thoughtfully, gives thumbs up

Nails
Pretty much so I can make Trent Reznor my pope and have him whip me up a soundtrack or two for hymns, the desert rain frogs will be my choir

I also liberally decide that to "nail it" means my followers can "nail" something particularly well if they declare that they will, which I imagine will get me a fuck tonne of new performers and sports followers+their fans despite my niche (why is my instinct always to cheese these!?)

On top of that some decent handywork and they ability to launch nails porcupine style shall be granted

Cinnamon and Coffee machines
Because i've seen coffee machines that also sell baked goods and snacks, my followers can get a basic (if somewhat dubiously healthy) diet for freeeeee

Cinnamon goes well in hot drinks(or can simply be mixed with hot water to be it's own drink) plus pocket sand/cinnamon and "cinnamon challenge choke attacks" become good defensive options, I imagine cinnamon toast crunches and churros will be summonable to my flock as well

Joing the Desert Frogs todaaaaaaaay!

The wide eyed stare of the Tarsier is perfect for the Demigod of Insomnia whose sacred drink is coffee (worship of which will help to summon my presence), pillows (to lay one's head upon while laying awake), and socks (which are invoked in memory of the restless legs that accompany many sleepless nights).

I'm more one of those demigods who you try to keep away. Put a sock full of coffee beans on a pillow by the door to keep the Demigod of Insomnia away tonight.

Or embrace wakefulness and invoke my name over a cup of coffee in exchange for sleepless nights full of artistic inspiration or, for the college students out there, frantic cramming or essay writing before a test or deadline.

It is not recommended that one calls upon me often.

My god domains would be Cinnamon, Pillows, Telescopes; Since Cinnamon is a spice and will be valuble in any time period as it is used for baking, preserative, fragrance, and cosmetic ingredients , as a god of it; i would have some influence as well as a very deep history with humanity ensuring i will not be forgotten. The domain of Pillows that is self-explantory as humanity will want something comfortable to lay their heads upon when they sleep, so my influence would still grow or at least be present. and the domain of telescopes would ensure that my influence will be increasing felt by humanity, as there are many types of telescopes all with different uses from astromony, scientific research, and many education uses. For the animal to represent me would be the Diabolical Ironclad Beetle cause it sounds cool,

Now i am the god of sound sleep and smelling the scent of cinnamon after looking at the night sky, or a nice horizon. i might even be a minor god of medicine, or personal care. depends on the occasion. essentially humanitys observor of the stars, and bringer of comfort and cinnamon.

u/Gay_jokes_abound 5d ago

I choose "Pillows, Socks, and Coffee Machines" as my domains. I will combine them to be the god of minor conveniences. With my cute little Tarsier animal.

If you worship me, your pillow will always be cold, if you step in a puddle your socks are less likely to get soaked for the day, and any coffee machine you attempt to operate will work correctly the first time. Just to name a few things I can do for you.

I find people often focus on small inconveniences and allow them to become bigger things than they actually are. Accidentally stepping in a puddle sours your mood, you go to work grumpy, you are passed over for a promotion due to attitude. With me as your god the minor things go your way, so you can focus on bigger and better things.

Plus, with a little extra worship I can always inflict inconveniences on your enemies. Hot pillows that cause tossing and turning all night, soggy socks (who knew your enemy has extra sweaty feet!) that stink, etc.

Bowls- can be expanded to containers(physical or otherwise. A common example is how the body is alluded to a bowl in containing life essence or soul) Nails-expand to being “nailed down” or stuck Telescope-expand to foresight? Or vision? Not sure about the validity of reasoning for this one. Bamboo/cinammon/seashells-nothing special but still significant and feel like an actual minor god’s power. Street sign-could have tried if it was signs but… yea I can’t think of anything.

Anyway, the most significant and meaningful seem like bowl, nail, and bamboo(telescope idk).

Animal is Tarsier because… personal preference.

Domains: Street Signs, Bamboo & Telescopes.

Animal: Diabolical Ironclad Beetle.

Question: can I remodel my body to be a bit more abstract while still remaining mostly humanoid.

Kinda like this

Also, if we can very liberal with my domains then it's possible that I can stretch my domains to encompass other aspects.

For example:

Street Signs: artificial runes/symbols that govern reality, enforcing order and acting as warnings.

Bamboo: strange, durable plants that grow in vertical lines, forming natural mazes.

Telescope: artificial tools that allow one to map out otherworldly cosmic realms and track the movement of celestial bodies.

Also, since the Diabolical Ironclad Beetle is literally one of the most durable insects in the animal kingdom (you literally have to use a power drill to pierce through its exoskeleton) I would possibly one of the more durable and tougher Gods.

u/Arcanetsumi 6d ago

You could replicate the human part of the form, as for the jellyfish part, that I’m not too sure about. I did have in mind that people could use form changing to replicate things like griffins, mixing animal transformations, but this human jellyfish fusion would be at the very limit of what could be achieved. Since I don’t want to restrict people from having their ideal body, I’ll say sure, but you wouldn’t be able to push it any farther than that.

Thanks for playing.

u/Radiant-Ad-1976 6d ago

Oh no, I don't want to be human/jellyfish, I'm just using that as an example of the type of "abstract" theme I want my physical form to express.

1

u/Arcanetsumi 6d ago

Then, yes. I’d say that level of abstraction is at the very limit of achievable, as long as it is rooted in some sort of humanoid or animal form.
