Lots of Roguelikes have gods and goddesses, why not Noxico? Gods typically have domains that they rule over, so I was thinking what would be appropriate for the Noxico setting? So far I can think of three categories:

Gods of Races:

Gods for the individual races. This may fly in the face of the original setting of the fact that some of the races were artificially created from a demoness, but I could see them being for the other races. This is the weakest category, in my opinion.

Gods of Practicality:

Gods that specialize in weapons/magic/farming/smithing/etc. Basically your normal menagerie of skill sets, normally focused on survival and wealth creation.

Gods of Fetishes:

Gods for the particular fetishist. For examples:

The God(dess) of Feet that can adjust stuff about your feet, might have possible practical bonuses like faster travel speed.

The God of Men, focuses on changes things about penises, a suspiciously large gay population among their priests. (Similarly for his counterpart.)

The God(dess) of Fertility, self explanatory.

The God(dess) of Eating, bonus to health recovery and satiation for eating, bonuses to heavier sets, like defense.

The God(dess) of BDSM, favored weapon of whips and leather armor.

The God(dess) of Transgender? Focus on sissification, crossdress, etc. (Might be a hot-button issue.)

The God(dess) of Virginity, focus on orgasm denial, chastity, and purity, gets resistance to corruption.


Sacrifices to the gods/goddesses would obviously be related to their domains, perhaps sacrificing ceremonial carvings, like a bust/vagina to the Goddess of Women.



Something similar could be done for Starsigns (except for the sacrifices part), especially if the lore isn't compatible with Gods and Goddesses ruling over those domains.

Just thought I would throw this out there.

We have a complement of deities already planned. Bodshivita came up with 'em. If you talk to yourself on certain days, you can contact them. But none have any dialogue written yet.

Ah. Well I thought I'd throw that in there anyway.

Why would a goddess of transgenderism be into sissification?

The classifications otherwise make sense, although how to fit them into pantheons, I dunno. Maybe some sort of non-diety witch or otherwise that you could interact with?

I donno... maybe a god/dess of (assorted). Sissification didn't really fit into the other categories and it seems not that common of a fetish to merit a whole god/dess to it.

Well okay. Permit me then to ponder and propose possible benefits of praying to the gods, because I think it would be cool to be able to get relative bonuses based off of which god likes or dislikes you. Here are some offerings:

Eternity:
Paragon:
Healing (heal you, heal others, the like)

Renegade:
Undeath (make things last unnaturally long, like people or things)

Death:
Paragon:
Time Control (if you don't want to speed up time, maybe increases in speed/dodging ability)

Renegade:
Death Bolts (kill them dead with bolts of death)

Architect:
Paragon:
Defense Buffs (increases to armor, bonuses to preparation)
Easier Camping (well defended camp site)

Renegade:
Sentries (like a golem or a ward)
Tech Bonus (bonus to guns and stuff)

Temptress:
Paragon:
Transformation Control (like bonuses to alchemy or the ability to resist transformation if you choose to)
Easier Seduction ("let's get it on...")

Renegade:
Lust Bolts (make them submit to their carnal urges)

Madman:
Paragon:
Luck Bonus (crits are easier, traps fail more often)

Renegade:
Chaos Aura (followers and those around you spontaneously change)
Toxic Blood (attackers get an unwanted taste of you)

Commander:
Paragon:
Bonus to Followers (morale bonuses, higher charisma)

Renegade:
Smiting Spells (spell that does damage to your enemies, ranged or touch attack)
Attack Bonuses (hit them harder with the sword or stick or whathaveyou)

Could you elaborate on the less obvious bonuses?

Not to mention if I guessed right about the Death Paragon bonus, that's gonna be a bitch to implement :I

Which are less obvious? Also I left space to add more because you clearly had more domains for the dieties and, if they can, should be reflected in how the gods interact in the world. Here, I'll try to add some more stuff...

Just... just describe 'em all, please. I've been bitten by assumptions too often.
