The God Applications are coming and we will be giving instructions in March. We are giving you guys a 1-month heads up to get your activity up. There will be 2 spots! You must:

1. 12 posts a month. Min. of six on your main god account.
2. Be an active member of the OOC boards. Remember that being a god isn't a status symbol. It's a staff position.
3. Post with more than 2 person. Meaning you can't just post with me on all my different accounts(example).
4. Have an event idea.
5. Be a role-model. This means behaving yourself.

Remember that a God Position isn't just the next step in your plot. It is more than that and we expect that to be recognized. 

Here's our official wiki entry for what we look for:
Many people have asked questions about how to fill the deity position. It’s not that hard! The first thing a player must understand is the site rules. The second thing they must understand is their community.

Becoming a deity is more than just a boost to yourself. You are a pillar of your community. You, even as a deity, hold sway over what could happen on the site. You are staff. You have multiple jobs that you must do.

Be part of your community. - That means still answering help questions, posting in the general discussion boards, and communicating with people outside of your fellow staff.

Entertainment - Our spots as deities are not just for our pleasure. We are a host of opportunities for others on the site.

Activity - You have to remain active. We have a quota to meet, but what this really means is posting with your community. You won’t get any posts in your temple unless you communicate with others. You have to actively seek out people before they search for you.

Do not be a jerk. You are not so high ranking that you can’t be touched. Remember that being a deity is a privilege. You proved yourself good enough to get a spot, but can you keep it? It all comes down to your personality and communication.

The SPOT! This is why we’re all on this page: Do not under any circumstances let the spot become your character. The character is the spot. We can notice when you thread and gum things together on your application.

Do not be terrified to turn it in. We’ve watched many people we didn’t think would get it, actually get it. Be prepared for the unexpected. Sometimes what you think isn’t the best is actually what we need most on the site at the moment.

Try to be as original as possible when you role-play. Try not to be the typical god/dess.

What it all comes down to, once again, is community. If you are good to the community, the community will be good to you. Your success rides on their acceptance and their want to role-play with you.

Don't be afraid. Write on my friends.

I shall have a mock up application for those who are wondering about it! It will take me a little bit to get it done with everything else that has been going on. :)

Good luck, practice, and I want to see the lot of you participate!

Sample App, I used Toya, Ang's sister, for the App since doing one for Ang wouldn't have been as fun… I will admit Toya looks fun to play as for a Deity >.>;  This is how we expect your app to look like in format. No links to posts or links to other documents. Mind you mine is just an example and quick write up yours should be better.:

Username: Toya
Character name: Toya Rose
Brief character history (max 150 words):
Toya is the queen of the White Court in Arri. She was the youngest and raised by her four older sisters. Her life has been met with fire and destruction much like her soul. She has the soul of a dragon and the madness that goes with it. She does what she has to for her family even if her attitude says otherwise. Toya is the queen of Wildfire and Innocence; the innocence due to her ignorance. The queen is a person who speaks with her fists instead of logic, a formidable foe. One of a few mortals ever to punch a god and survive. Toya is also the Tactician in Arri, meaning she has good standings with how to win a war as long as you don’t leave the talking and negotiations to her.

Our gods and goddesses don't have domains per se, for they have a title or function that defines them, which you can see just under the title of their temples. Our question is: what would your title be, and what would it mean for your character as a deity? How would they function as such? (Max 250 words)
The Fire Wrath, The Dragon. Toya is a creature made of fire and destruction. Her heart is always in the right place but her mind leads her down the destructive path. The saying the road to Hell is paved with good intentions defines her. She would rather fight to get her way and ignite the world on fire when it isn’t. Diplomacy is lost on her and she would be the first one to throw a punch if things weren’t going her way. 

What would be your character's three god powers? (bear in mind that this does not have to be absolutely definitive as they would be subject to approval (should you be selected) but a general idea would be helpful.)
i. Toya is able to have a volcanic eruption so the battlefield is in a haze with volcanic soot.
ii. She is able to make things that would normally have a good effect become destructive. EX: Picking up a glass and having it break from the slightest grip.
iii. Anything can become her firestorm, a massive fire attack. EX: Couch cushions lighting on fire or Ice cubes even.

Explain your deity’s philosophy. How will they use their domains and how will it impact Revaliir? (Max 250 words)
Toya is all about fire and destruction. The blood of a dragon rampages through her veins. If it rises against her she will crush it and burn it until nothing but cinders remain. She is, however, not without a heart. She is a caring woman when it comes to her own children and other's children. To hell with everyone else. Toya does not know fear and it makes her a warlord in her own right. This might cause wars to break out all over Revaliir for better or worst. Her charisma causes battles and brings people to her aid. Only the truly foolish would dare stand against the wrath of a dragon.

 Why do you think you would make a good deity? This is your chance to tell us about yourself, why you feel qualified for the position, what qualities you feel you could bring to the deity mix and how you would function as a part of our expanding community. (max 250 words.)
I am an active member of the community. I run not only the Wishing Well but also heavily stalk the help forums looking for people to help. I have a standard of twenty threads I’m in at all times for roleplay. I’m also one of the veteran roleplayers for the Greenhorns’ Guild. I draw icons for the shops and for events in my spare time. I also always answer my PMs from people when they get sent. I can post upwards of 60 posts a month for a good month. A bad month is 20. I also multitask with 50 other characters.

Provide us with an example of your writing. This can be from a thread you have already written, or it could be a piece you have specially written for this application. Whatever the case, it should feature the character you are applying with. (250 words max)
She wasn’t sure that this is what Blaine had meant by ‘finding a new hobby’.  She wasn’t even sure if this would be a get out of jail free card. The lycan was protective of his slightly psycho mate. Toya had a tendency not to understand when she was taking things way too far. Her recent activities included being a grand champion in Torn’s arena; it kept her out of trouble. However, when she woke up after one of her victories she found herself tied up to the bed with a quite displeased Blaine at the foot of it.

She was more disobedient than a child being told no. Saddling her dragon she heard about the unrest that was in the ice lands. Her blood ran hot naturally and there were plenty of nights that Blaine had thrown all of the blankets off the bed just to deal with how hot her body tended to be. It was the flame elemental in her that stirred; go figure the crazy one had the destructive powers of fire. Climbing up onto the golden dragon they were soon off.

Through the thick of blizzards and giant clumps of snow she found herself wanting to be back in the desert, she wasn’t cold but she wasn’t happy here. Her eye was visibly twitched as she landed the dragon. If it was one thing that she had a gifted talent in it was using her nose.
