Three weeks. That's how long it's been. You know because you've been marking off the days on the calender with dread..

Three weeks since you found yourself at death's door.

Three weeks since you killed a god.

Three weeks since you.. changed. Since you've found yourself more fit then you've ever been. Since you've found yourself able to finally read those Japanese manga in the original language...

Three weeks of waiting for the revenge, the doom, that stories have taught you will fall on those who fight the gods.

..Three weeks of nothing happening.

You'd be wondering if you hallucinated it all if it wasn't for the power you now possess. Well, that and the fitness and the language thing and the fact you haven't had a snuffle since then, but the powers stand out more.

The powers that unpleasantly remind you of the god you slew...

[ ] The Sky God, the great God of the Sun, whom you tricked into striking himself with his own weapon, allowing you to rip him to shreds by feeding him into some industrial equipment as he lay wounded.
[ ] The Mother Earth Goddess, the Wife of the King, a bitter goddess who you fooled into breaking her own word, given when she forced you into the death contest for her own amusement, striking her down with her own curse.
[ ] The War God, the God of Steel, the one who bore copper weapons with great skill, defeated by being fooled into breaking down the wall that kept water from drowning the both of you. To this day, you do not understand how you survived.
[ ] The Lawgiver and Order-Maker, She who stands as creation, the goddess who regulated the seasons, who forced you into serving a roll you wished not to fill.. and once you found a loophole, and poisoned her cup, you served no more.

For your powers allow you to act as you saw them act, wield some of the powers they possessed by right of themself.. And now you have them.

And you may need them soon. For as you hide and wondered what was to come next, strange rumors, unusual events, have come upon the city that you call home... well, to be fair, those were happening before you left, but sometime between then and now..

They've accelerated. Strange lights in the parks, strange sounds in the night, rumors and whisperings and people vanished from the moonless streets.. or so the rumors claim.

What is something you can swear to be true however, is that last night, some beast struck an apartment close by yours, and messily killed the people within...

You've had enough of sitting and cowering. It's time to go out and see if you can use your new power to solve something, change this dire fate that seems to be dawning upon your home. After all, you killed a god. How hard can this be?

[ ] You know a bar somewhere nearby, why not drop in and listen to the drunks for a while? Find out in more detail about all these rumors?
[ ] Alia, a computer expert you know, might have some sort of clue.. you know she runs on some strange message boards. Maybe you can go talk to her?
[ ] Your younger brother sent you a message yesterday, saying you should come by and see his new digs sometime. Maybe now?
[ ] All this worrying has stressed you out. You think you'll go out to the swimming pool and swim for a while, relax, and maybe do some more planning.
[ ] If there is strange lights in the parks, something must be causing it. Maybe you could go to the local park and poke around.



So! New quest time! As this first post and title shows you, you shall have power, but will you have the wisdom to use it? Will you uncover the mystery to come? Make allies and enemies.. and survive the both of them?

Or will you simply fall under the events to come?

Edit : Vote called.
 
Character Sheet
Ren Suzugamori​

Stats
Strength : After the.. events.. in your vacation, you seem to be about as strong as a humans can get without being freaky body builders...
Endurance : You've noticed you can just keep on working through things and times that used to tire you out, too.
Agility: You've tried doing some things you've seen acrobats do on TV. Some of them have even worked.
Mana: Uh... This can be rated?

Skills
Driving : You know how to drive a car. You are not a professional stunt driver.
Web Browsing : You know how to use the internet, and even can find some of the more exotic sites on it.
Haggling : Well, you can drive a bargain but you wouldn't claim to be good at it.

Special Skills

Techniques and Spells

Authorities
Falcon of the Sky : The first Authority you have seized from Horus, this is the power to transform into a divine beast of a falcon, either completely or partially, and includes the ability to choose between the size of a normal bird or something more the size of a large car. Time Limits and other abilities are currently undiscovered.. if they exist.

Burning Blood of the Sun : The second authority taken from the domain of Horus, this is the ability to transform your blood into burning sunfire, either used as projectiles or as raw material to shape weapons with. While the ability seems to buffer you from the blood loss, you suspect overuse may have results you do not desire. At the current time your skill in shaping objects with this skill is crude.

Survival-Dex
Other People
Random Strangers
Haru Miyamoto : A strange kid you met in a corner mart. Seems to wear his headphones on the outside of his hood for some reason.
Miu Kimura : One of Haru's friends. Her red eyes bug you for some reason, but it's her Godzilla themed hairclip that sticks in your memories.
Wakana Fukui : The second of Haru's friends, her habit of wrapping a gold scarf around the front of her face makes her seem mysterious...

Guys remember who ever we take we also get tainted by their Legend and will draw Related Gods to us...

Also Happerry am I guessing right for any?
 
This is the first I've heard anything about 'tainted by there legend'. And as for those guesses.. They are hilarious.

LN had Godou attract a Heretic God Because he had killed Veragatha the one with the clubs. And he had such a hard time with Peresus Because of Peresus's Legend Naturally Truimping that of Veragatha's.

So none of then are remotely right?
 
Don't think I've read that light novel, and as for Peresus, yes Peresus's magic trumpted Veragatha's, but Peresus didn't get attracted because Godou's myth demanded that or anything, to my understanding. If you beat Lucifer up you aren't likely to have Micheal show up and try to beat you up because legend says so or anything. (He might send you a nice cold one as a nice kill man type of thing though..)
 
[X] The three-faced crow which sows terror across the fields of war. She spoke to you of your inevitable demise, and in your fear and terror you somehow managed to break the chains of fate and impale her upon a jagged rod of iron, leaving her corpse in place of your own.

The Name escapes me atm both he did have 2 Clubs and was a Sky God.

Its not Really a attraction but Certain Gods will attack a Campione that have Authorities that are at odds with the God in question.

Aka Kill Medusa and Peresus will try to slay the Monster. Or Kill the Golden Lion and don't be surprised tht if you find Hades, Ares, or the Argonauts pulling a Kool-aid man Gods and Heroes ARE Bound to their Legends and will follow them even after they Descend to the Mortal Plane.

Ho also Peresus is actually a Good Example of a Composite Legend the 'shell' of The Greek Hero while being at his 'core' Mithras The Sun God rival of Veragatha.
 
You can consider my gods more sane then "Oh, he killed my traditional enemy! Lets kill him!"

Well if this is crossed over with Megami Tensei, I expect the cosmology to be...actually more fucked up that canon Campione? This is MegaTen after all.

For our authority attracting Gods, I think the only thing that may happen is a God (maybe) recognizing from which God our authority come from. If they were related in myth...well, it depends on the relationship they had. Of course, every God we encounter will want our head one way of another. It's how it works.
