Okay! I’ve been thinking it might be fun to make a community island for us all to work on together. This goes from the terrain to the gods to any species that are added! This could be be a lot of fun but also a lot of work, so it’s going to really require peoples help. People will be able to jump in and help at any time, and even if you don’t help you will be able to use places and gods and species in this area for things like stories or art or anything else you can think of.

Before we get into this I want to warn that you should not offer any gods or other ideas you are not willing to share or have people work on. I’d say people are allowed to have personal characters on this new island, but please specify if it’s that over a community character. I don’t want any avoidable fights.

I’m gonna start it off by talking about terrain, but feel free to talk about anything. I think we should have like one area that’s a marsh land, maybe with giant mushrooms instead of trees and houses on stilts to avoid floods. I also think a snowy area would be fun but I don’t have much idea besides that. Also I wanna start with this over a god cause I think in a group of people having an area may help us think of an idea for one?

Going to add a google doc later when we have solid info on the area, to keep it all organized.

in which we discuss domains and motifs...everyone's favorite aspect of morbit gods! what domains and motifs do your characters have? what domains and motifs would you have? how do these play into passive and active abilities, and their physical forms? what does it mean to them as a person? did they have the option to choose these qualities purposefully on formation or were they chosen for them? or maybe you just want to discuss ideas! the possibilities are endless!

gonna throw my own hat into the ring with my godsona, dysthanasia- dys is a type C collective high god, which means they're basically a DID system working with the morbit god system, with each system member having their own set of motifs and domains and a form that shifts to accommodate. dys' specific set of domains is survival and creativity, which is based on the fact that i really, really love creating stuff (no shit) and that no matter what, i'll try to pull through and survive anything- this manifests in a sort of "focus band" ability that allows dys to survive things that would normally kill anyone else. due to them having no real believers/faith (thanks to keeping their god status a secret), they're in a constant sickly state, but this ability allows them to hang on despite that, and manage to live on in day to day life. their creativity domain manifests in spontaneous generation and manifestation of ideas, sometimes in ways that are inconvenient and extremely hard to control. this includes things like bringing toys to life and entire drawings becoming landscapes for them to explore in headspaces and dreams. i'm not sure what sort of high god-tier active manipulation of either domain they have, but considering they don't really have any follower power to work with, it probably wouldn't go well anyway. they feel pretty overwhelmed by the whole god thing in general, to be honest, and consider both domains to be overwhelming things to be dealt with more than actually beneficial things that keep them alive and capable. 

motif-wise, they have lineart and slime. some of their clothing and glasses are made of tangible lineart, and their body is made up entirely of slime that they only have complete control over on good health days (not often). they don't have very good motif control in general outside of stuff in an immediate range, despite being a high god, and prefer to keep things to themself regardless. any motif manipulation is typically used to customize their appearance and is done within their apartment, away from prying eyes, and only enough to pass as a weird construct or some foreign species that no one's ever heard of.

let's talk about scraps...anything about em! what do you think of scraps, what kind of scraps would your characters (or just you!) use, what would your natural affinity be, what kind of neat applications could you think of? maybe you have a scrap design you'd like to share, or want to collaborate on some kind of scrap-related idea...the sky's the limit! go wild!

i'll start the thread proper by cheating and saying that if we're going by The Canon™ and god scrap affinities line up with their motifs, im locked into slime/lineart scrap affinities via godsona bullshit. i don't really use dysthanasia for a lot these days but honestly, those still fit pretty well all things considered so i'll just roll with it anyway. slime scraps would be super fucking common due to both slime being a REALLY common concept on morbit thanks to it being biologically frequent and also like...emotionally resonant, in a way? idk, slime gives me a lot of emotional feelings and i feel like it could lead to being a pretty common scrap type. lineart on the other hand would be pretty rare, and most of dysthanasia's (godsona) scrap usage with those would have to be from their own shed scraps. lineart scraps would probably contain art-related memories and emotions, which is kind of fun to think about...maybe they'd look like tangible, uncolored drawings, like floating assets or powerups? who knows!
