conversations.value: A new universe springs into being. Gods coalesce into the void and begin creating. Some make the world, some make it better, and some make it… interesting. These gods have different powers, personalities and agendas. Some will ally. Some will defy. Some will betray. Their actions reflect the nature of the world as much as their hands shape it.
  
  This game is a blank slate. I'm defining nothing about the world because what it is and what is possible within is to be defined and influenced by you, the players behind the gods.
  
  The game will be **exactly 7 scenes**, each scene approximately a day in the god's experience, an epoch for the world. This story hinges on the players' creativity and their ability to find compelling conflicts between their characters without a personal need for your character to 'win.'
  
  You're encouraged to create your own deity and all your own cards. You can start from a very literal corporeal being, or with a very abstract concept, but each will have either a tangible form or an indispensable agent with a tangible form (Whichever the group agrees on?)—The gods need to be able to interact directly, to hurt each other, and to have something to lose beyond what they've created.
  
  As always, I'll ask players to establish relationships before starting the game.

conversations.from: human
conversations.value: God of Invention: It is not enough to create, you create intricate challenges and brilliant solutions. You favor clever and industrious mortals. You demand your intellect respected.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: God of Death: Without death, life is pointless. Without atrophy, new is noise. You clean the world of that which is no longer useful, to make room for the rest. Mortals fear you, but do you mind?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Painter: You paint in broad strokes. You create planets, continents, oceans, skies and heavens. Details are beneath you. Go big or go home.
conversations.from: gpt

conversations.from: human

conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Calligrapher: You believe in simplicity, purity of form, clarity of purpose. You are precise and bring elegance to the rough areas. What story is told is of no consequence, only that it is told well.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Jealousy: You hate anything you cannot possess. You wish you had the talent the other gods do. Are you above grinding them down? Stealing from them? Plagiary?
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Good: You want to make the world a good place to live. You want to fill it with good people, who do good. You will not rest while evil thrives.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Obsession: Everything must be perfect, it must be your way. You will not rest while mortals defy you. You do not hesitate to wrest control from anyone. What great secret drives your mission?
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Searching: All the gods have a purpose, but you. You've told them "mystery" or something, but you don't know and it leaves you hollow inside you. You are searching for your purpose.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Peace: War, violence and pain are intolerable. Your purpose is to end cruelty and conflict, in the world, and among the gods.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Overseer: Your purpose is to watch over the other gods and ensure that they each fulfill their own purpose. You must protect the them from themselves and each other, to ensure the grand vision is completed.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Havoc: There's no victory without conflict, no triumph without challenge, no hero without a villain. Since no one likes a predictable ending, you're going to throw a wrench in the works.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Ooathua: You have many concerns, and many arms with which to tend them. You will make a place where your immense weight is bearable. You will spawn creatures that serve your purposes, to lighten your load, and perhaps to keep you company in your lonely place.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Krom: You are strength. You take what you want and fear nothing. You have four arms, four legs and four hearts. You cannot fathom reticence, bookishness or mercy. You celebrate what is right, and loudly. Your brother is weak, but holds power over you.

conversations.value: Jenny Soomrani: Jenny was born in Idaho after her parents moved from Pakistan to pursue careers in engineering. She's a junior at Brown University… or was until she woke who-knows-where. Apparently, she can create worlds and is meant to do something great 'here.' She doesn't mind the part where everyone calls her 'goddess' but she does miss her family and her dog Crunchy.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Puppeteer: You make things happen. You set stories in motion. You put fires in mortals' hearts, take justice from the comfortable, and set families against each other, all to watch what happens next.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Pointillist: You have no interest in blind creation. Your interest is in examining. What are the grand questions of this universe? What have the other gods made, and what makes it all tick? What of the other gods themselves?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Lust: You cannot be satiated. Your need knows no bounds, and you are not above cajoling with mortals to get your kicks. What's your perversion?
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Wrath: You don't suffer fools gladly. You don't suffer anything alone. The world will know your pain, your disapproval. What wound do you bear that will never heal?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Anarchy: Why should creation carry more value than destruction? Some things need to be destroyed. Sometimes you destroy other things, because complacency is worse than the void. What's the one thing you cherish most?
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Gullability: All the gods share in the task of creation. Why must there be fighting? We do the greatest things when we work together. If you trust the gods and mortals who betray you, eventually they'll change. Why do you doubt yourself?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Oblivion: The universe is meant to be made and then left idle. Reality is a cycle. We create, we destroy. Again and again. The other gods don't see it, but you know they have to clean up their mess and you'll do it all yourself if you have to.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Bring About the World: Whatever that is.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Tenant: Born to be, Tenant is the explorer god. Discovery, adventure, anticipation, and observation are his roles. Treated as a lesser for his seemingly intangible contribution, still the gods covet his praise.
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value: Goddess of Love: 
  This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.

conversations.from: human

conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Mischief: You can't help it. You love to play tricks. Each trick is a lesson, but mostly you play them because they're funny. It, uh, sometimes gets you in trouble.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: A Good Story: You spin tales like you spin your webs. You once managed to win all the world's stories from Nyame, and now they're yours. Nothing's better than a good story.
