Roleplaying Etiquette: God Characters
[[Listen, y’all. Ziya-mun here to bring a roleplaying etiquette lesson out to all you fine young cats and kittens in the audience, very specifically in regards to god or god-like characters. For reference, I have 10+ years of roleplaying experience, both in forums and out, and have played my fair share of god characters before ol’ Ziya here.
It boils down to two very big, very basic roleplaying no-no’s. God-mod(d)ing and powerplay.
God-mod(d)ing is where you imbue your characters with invincibility and powers that cannot be matched by other, more regularly endowed characters for the sake of constantly having the upper hand, and very often is not discussed with other muns before interaction. This, too, encompasses such things as controlling another person’s character and acting upon another’s character without their consent or prior knowledge.
Powerplay goes hand-in-hand with the above, where one embues their characters with more strength/powers/etc than anyone else to make sure they can never be beaten.
With god characters, these things tend to be a give-in. Gods are, by nature, invincible, immortal, almighty beings. And that makes them
Absolutely No Fun To Play With.
Nobody wants to play second fiddle to someone else all the time. Nobody wants to know they are utterly, completely outclassed all the time. What fun is that for the other mun?
That is why the key to roleplaying a god or god-like character in public is to remember a few simple rules:
Never take actions on another character without their explicit consent.
(In fact, it is polite to approach the mun and ask for an rp first anyhow. Not every mun is cool with a drive-by roleplay.)
When interacting with someone new, or entering a scene where one’s powers will be utilized, always run the character’s powers by the other rper. You can have a few hard ‘must always have/uses’ but the others should be negotiable, and if the other mun expresses discomfort in you utilizing these powers, either opt out of using them for the roleplay/with that person, or do not engage in a roleplay.
ALSO it is a very good idea to have a list of your character’s powers readily available either on your blog or someplace you can easily copypaste it to your partners.
It is generally also polite to play a powered-down version of that character publicly. That way, all new rpers will have a chance to approach without you instantly turning on the high-beams and reading their souls, or whatever the trend is these days.
There are sites easily google-able that contain full, very thorough lists of roleplaying etiquette that all roleplayers SIMPLY MUST read before engaging with others, but I do hope this helps those playing god-characters for the first (or third) time understand how to do so that is both fun for everyone and doesn’t make you look like a god-moding walnut.
Cheers! xoxo]]
"You're a light?" a voice questioned, a small cat padding up and staring up at them. ~believeinasmilingkitten
“Why, yes I-- oh M E, are you a K I T T E N ?”
"Are you aware of the dinner party I'm hosting?"
“I have h e a r d of it and have been worrying over the v e r y important detail of, whatever shall I w e a r ?”
“Well, I suppose there is another reason for this visitation. I really very much wanted to m e e t the man who might one day be my s o n - i n - l a w, if that is how these things are going to p a n o u t.”
“…. Pardon me but you’re what? Son in law?”
“Hmmm~? Oh, goodness me, you look a tad shocked, dear boy. Yes, son-in-law. If you ever s l a p a ring on that finger, you know what I’m s a y i n g ?”
“Loud is, unfortunately, my o n l y volume. And I do apologize for the sudden visit, though it really is past d u e. I haven’t had the chance to visit the t o p o f f i c e proper since my arrival in t h i s universe, and it really i s at the top of my sight-seeing list.”
“This isn’t exactly a vacation spot. Might I suggest our Hotel Resorts or possibly a few restaurants. You’ll find better hospitality elsewhere in my opinion.”
“Well, I suppose there is another reason for this visitation. I really very much wanted to m e e t the man who might one day be my s o n - i n - l a w, if that is how these things are going to p a n o u t.”
"Our numbers seem to be multiplying," said the woman. "Why, I can hardly keep track of us all!"
“Au contraire, d e l i g h t. Our numbers have always been i n n u m e r a b l e–we just have never been the most s o c i a l of godly aspects. Save present company, of course.”
“Of course, of course,” she said. “Everything else seems so large as a singular consciousness, though. I’m Chiara, by the way.” She extended a hand.
He takes her hand in his bejeweled own, turning it to press a kiss to her knuckles. “Ziya Al-Din, Ziya for short. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Chiara.”
“So polite!” She giggles. “And they say chivalry is dead. It is lovely meeting you as well, Ziya.”
“Those who say such l i e s clearly need to find themselves among more polite company. And what brings you to t h i s neck of the woods, d e l i g h t ?”
“If the Smiling Gods you know are hampered by such t r i v i a l i t i e s as guard staff and w a l l s, then you must know quite a few s m a l l sunspots. A p l e a s u r e to make the acquaintance of such a p o w e r f u l Angel such as yourself, Mr. Vega. I am called Z I Y A A L - D I N though most call me Z I Y A for short. How do you do?”
“Augh, you sound just like my nephew’s husband. So loud. I do fine. Although to be honest I was not expecting a visit from another one of your kind. What even brings you here? Into my office specifically.”
“Loud is, unfortunately, my o n l y volume. And I do apologize for the sudden visit, though it really is past d u e. I haven’t had the chance to visit the t o p o f f i c e proper since my arrival in t h i s universe, and it really i s at the top of my sight-seeing list.”

“I walked in of my own volition! Is that a c r i m e, good Mr. V e g a?”’
“Well you see I have a band of interns you have to pass as well as a secretary with a bad temper and a PA with an even worse temper and several security guards that- augh, never mind. What are you doing here? Who even are you? I’ve never seen your mug among the many Smiling Gods I know who come and pass.”

blindedbychoice replied to your post:“The only Smiling Gods I can truly tolerate are…
A w w w, how sad to h e a r that.
“WHO LET YOU IN MY OFFICE?”
“I walked in of my own volition! Is that a c r i m e, good Mr. V e g a?”
so why does the smiling god smile?
Because the sound of the cosmos ripping apart at the seams is M U S I C to our ears. :)
ah. so perceived notions of schadenfreude aren’t just projecting conjectures, then?
Hmmm~ I never claimed t h a t...
