Welp, there goes Jin. Let me know if I did something wrong and I'll try to fix it tomorrow.

For now, I schleep.
 
Okay tried to leave it open enough as people are scattering after the sermon
kk, and now i got a nice way to spice up how my rp posts look heheee
literally just 2 tabs in the post, one of what the character does, and one of very basic info
 
So he can make living beings with souls and flesh?

Hasuna makes babies which is creation of souls and flesh if you think about =P

Welp, there goes Jin. Let me know if I did something wrong and I'll try to fix it tomorrow.

For now, I schleep.

That said, this is a Noragami RP and his abilities do sound a little too OP for it. I'd allow for OP if it is for a particular job as a god...but Jin doesn't even sound like he has a particular job or specific wish he's granting. Creation/Life-giving deities to do exist. Izanagi is one such in Japanese lore. Izanami used to be another before she became a death goddess. However, they are npcs of real gods (as in actual gods you'll find in Jap myth) for the sake of expanding the setting. Even then, I'm pretty sure they had a regalia (jeweled spear) to do so. 'Destroyer' also implies 'calamity god' which lowers worship in general...but let's go over the issues one by one:

1. Enormous strength and endurance. I'm not letting any players get beyond Yato (Culling god) unless you explain to me exactly why he has this (and he was able defeat a blighted war god and 'rend' the Heavens with his regalia lol). Gods, given the fact that they are spiritual entities in Noragami, already have an array of supernatural capabilities (jumping from buildings and all). World-lifting Atlas is a no-go unless he's specifically a strength god. Even then, that sort of Herculean strength kind falls into the bit too OP for this rp 😓

2. Hymn of Creation. Reading about it sounds like the sort of alchemical transmutation you'd find in Fullmetal Alchemist....but on a grander scale (no limits a bit too much for a creation god that doesn't even have one regalia). In my Noragami setting, 'power' of a god is dictated by the number of worshippers they possess and the number of regalias they have which is how I'm encouraging players to develop within the setting. From what I'm reading, the wish he was born from is to give 'life' to stories. If he has any creation ability (which teeters on a bit to the OP side), I'd like it to center around the wish he is born from. Also, I'd like limits until he finds a regalia (and even afterwards tho I'll allow steady growth as the rp progresses <.<). Regalias are how gods primarily do their jobs (which is the only reason I'm allowing godly abilities in the first place). Yato can 'cull' because he has Yukine. Kofuku spreads poverty mainly through the use of Daikoku which concentrates gloom. There was a reason Heaven didn't allow her to have a lot of regalias (which would augment her abilities to spread disaster/poverty to a dangerous scale) and, while she does have a degree of bad luck about her, her abilities are limited due to this. Also, the less specific his abilities are, the less I'm willing to allow on a grand scale (even then, unless he has an army of regalias/is the #1 loved god in Japan, he won't ever be on the level of world-creation like the primordial gods e.e). For now, I'm only allowing the transmutation of small things and a limit on the number of 'Servus' he can make. I need specific limitations before I can accept a somewhat OP ability.

3. Destruction Index. I don't care what he 'thinks', but gods, spirits, and phantoms are not living. He can't touch a god, spirit, or phantom and instantly destroy it/break it apart. He can break apart the 'things' he creates himself as a natural ability. Period. His ability to 'destroy' is equal it his ability to 'create' (this makes the most sense to me). I won't allow godly authority on other god-made objects or things that aren't his own. 'Man-made' objects is the max I'll go (and I'd like a regalia for this since it doesn't have anything to do with the wish he was originally born with). The breaking apart of 'living matter' is, simply put, too OP of a natural ability for a god who not only doesn't have single regalia, but whose wish (from which he was born) has nothing to do with it. Jin is born from a desire to create. Or a desire to destroy. He can't be both. He can become a destroyer in people's eyes, but that has nothing to do with his innate abilities as a god (if you want this, he's gotta die then reincarnate into an new god). He can train himself to join wars for humans or gods(making him a war god), but gods born specifically for war are always going to be stronger. He can learn spells that decompose matter, but that would something all gods can do (if they learned in the rp), and he wouldn't be a god of it specifically. Gods exorcise phantoms using a divine weapon. They can only kill other gods with a divine weapon. In fact, gods don't die unless blighted, eaten by a phantom, or attacked by another god (using a divine weapon). This is lore. Any other abilities I'm allowing they possess are for the their 'jobs' that affect the near shore or or for flavor. From what I can tell, Jin is meant to be a god that 'gives' people things. That's fine. But for anything bigger than the size of a microwave, he needs a regalia...or multiple, multiple regalias if he's going to start mountain creation (since I imagine the spiritual energy required for that would be gi-normous <.<)

4. I don't mind if you wanna tie his legend to that of another god. However, since she's an actual npc I'm playing in the story, I'd like to know the details of what he did on Mount Inari. If he was destroying the landscape, bothering her worshippers, and really did kill gods (that work for her) on his way up, Inari would attack him herself. Foxes are quite vengeful, after all, and she'd kill all of his worshippers (calling it divine justice) before they could even make a shrine on her mountain. Wars between gods aren't pretty after all she has a lot more support than him (and a lot more regalias) 😏 However, if he really just climbed a mountain, has no intention of making an enemy of Inari, and the 'destruction' is mostly just human lore/legend based on how others perceive him, I don't believe she would mind all that much. I'd like a clarification on the relationship you are trying to create with my npc.

Slight diffrence between using human biology to maje them and poofing your own slave race into existence lol

Ah yes. Haze- Haze- I'd assume the creatures he's making belong on the side of the the far shore and aren't visible to normal humans, but he can't make supernatural entities that people of the near shore can see/remember and populate the setting with it as a whole new race. That's way too world-breaking for my tastes. Therefore I'd like specific details on what the 'Servus' are.

alright i got it, forgot because im being stupid and decided to do like 4 things at once lol
 
Well this is what I get for writing at 1 am lol

It'd be kinda out of character to just take a soul to make a little gremlin thing, since he values every life and all that. Most of his 'living' creations are made up of his own flesh and anything with a similar shape to whatever he wants to create. His Servus, for example are literally just two chunks of 'expanded' flesh (Sounds messed up but I was just working under the assumption that all gods regenerate from any regular wound when I wrote it >>) and two dolls he created a long time ago. Which is something I should've added but, again, I really do be stupid sometimes.

Well that's just me being a lazy writer late at night lmao. He doesn't really have strength beyond what any other god would have, by "Nonsensical Strength" I meant he had a lot of willpower. I just didn't want to write "He's a muscle head." for some reason.

That said, this is a Noragami RP and his abilities do sound a little too OP for it. I'd allow for OP if it is for a particular job as a god...but Jin doesn't even sound like he has a job or particular wish he's granting.
(Not so) Fun fact the lore section for Jin was actually going to be divided into 2 sections, "Destruction" and "Creation". I planned on going a little bit more into detail as to what he was doing currently but I figured it would've been too long so I left it at "Destruction". Dumb choice but I was real tired atm, brain machine broke.

I can get to writing the "Creation" part if the other one's not enough.

'Destroyer' also implies 'calamity god' which lowers worship in general...
I mean, there's no such thing as bad publicity amirite...? I'll shut up...

It's exactly like transmutation from fma actually. My idea with it is that he can rearrange the different components of any object around him, combining them results in creating something different. About the "No limits" thing, it was supposed to be no limits as in imagination and the things he could create. Though, as I think I've mentioned before, his creation doesn't even amount to that of primordial gods, since all he can really create are small trinkets. The main twist to these trinkets being the altered properties fact.

The biggest things he's created have been his two Servus, which more or less are about waist height (approximately) and have nothing special about them. They're just cute comedic relief.

I'm fine with the regalia and worship power scaling and if the creation is still too op I'll get rid of the "He can create things instantly." and let you decide how long it takes him to make anything. Sounds like I'm bargaining w you but I'm just trying to compensate for my horrible writing, my bad qqdid.

3. Destruction Index.
Wouldn't it be funny if I told you the first thing I wrote for this was something along the lines of "His left hand doesn't really have anything special about it, he's just a better martial artist than you (not really)."

Cus that what I did.
He can break apart the 'things' he creates with those dark flames as a natural ability. Period. His ability to 'destroy' is equal it his ability to 'create'
The intention was just to break any object (from the near shore) in his way, not really about breaking other people apart since 'living' qualifies as anything with consciousness to him, but I'm fine with him only destroying what he creates.

Or just leave it at martial arts since it would be kinda funny.

Its a weird mixture of both human legend and actual occurrences. Since he'd gotten himself a reputation for beating up anyone I figured he would have some contenders looking to see how strong he really was at the time. Basically just a bunch of airheads got in his way as he was climbing, could've been gods already at Mount Inari or they could've followed him there, who knows.

He didn't exactly wreck the landscape, he just had dozens of duels as he moved forward (Hence why it took him so long, every fight went on for about a day or two.) but all the noise and scandal he made must've been pretty annoying. According to my official Jin lore facts™, he's actually been trying to apologise to Inari this whole time but he finds her difficult to approach.

Not sure if Inari would be mad at him for literally going out for a walk and getting jumped a dozen times while he was at it. Basically Jin's just trying to make peace with Inari but he doesn't really known if she sees him as an enemy or not, therefore he never knows how to handle the situation.
Ah yes. Haze- Haze- Haze- Haze- I'd assume the creatures he's making belong on the side of the the far shore and aren't visible to normal humans, but he can't make supernatural entities that people of the near shore can see/remember and populate the setting with it as a new race. That's way too world-breaking for my tastes. Therefore I'd like specific details on what the 'Servus' are.
Yes they're from the far shore and can't be seen by regular humans. They're not really a race of their own they're kinda just strange chimera-esque creatures made using certain parts of Jin's body. They actually look the way they look because of their artificial exterior but if you were to open them up it'd be just a bunch of muscle and blood + other disturbing stuff.

He can't really make an army of them because of how complicated it was to just create the first three so he just copies and pastes them whenever something irreversible happens to their bodies. Pretty much there's just three of them at the time and I'm not really planing on making more.
 
i mean you are still creating sentient life with i assume their own souls

also if he didn't want to get jumped by humans he can teleport all god can and if the is an old god as his bio says he would know this skill
