| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) | comment |
Cradle of Gods is a Play-by-Post game hosted on the TVTropes forums.In a fantasy world known simply as the Realms, godhood works...different. For starters, one must earn it by traveling through Shards, defeating Pretenders, and reaching the Temple of Divinity to claim a Throne. For another, even if you do, you won't rule forever—inevitably, the gods will die, the Cradle will open, and new gods must take up the Thrones.Thus is the focus of the RP—the beginning of a new Cycle, and the journey to ascension. Specifically, it focuses on one particular Ragtag Bunch of Misfits, who end up traveling together on their quest for godhood. | |

Dead All Along | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_1b590025 | comment |
Dead All Along: The Onna-Musha, as it turns out, was killed by Iande years ago, who has been running a cycle where Hinanosu and the Silver Host clash, fight the Pretender, only to then "reset" and do the same thing all over again. | |

Shoot the Shaggy Dog | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_272abb98 | comment |
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Vlavuel realizes Hinanosu is a False Utopia and attempts to escape, leaving behind a magical dish that reveals to Val and Poppy the true nature of the town. During their own escape attempt, they come across his dead body, revealing he hadn't even made it out of the town. Subverted when it turns out to be one of his clone bodies, and the real Vlavuel is alive and well. | |

Deity of Human Origin | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_33179374 | comment |
Deity of Human Origin: Well, not necessarily human origin, but every god, no matter the cycle, was once mortal before claiming a Throne and ascending to godhood. | |

Gratuitous French | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_34f8042a | comment |
Gratuitous French: Downplayed with Val, who is actually French (or more accurately Rouen) and has it as his first language. He usually speaks the same language as everyone else, but slips back into his native tongue when under extreme emotion. | |

| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_378039e | comment |
The Last Of These Is Not Like The Others: Compared to the...somewhat questionable origins of the original group, the Contenders introduced in the third Shard are considerably more above board. | |

Ending Memorial Service | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_539a54d | comment |
Ending Memorial Service: The Shards tend to end on makeshift funerals: the Huntress's Shard ends with the Pilgrims burning her body and those that died fighting her, while the Orphan's Shard sees them bury Revache after her Heroic Sacrifice. | |

Ragtag Bunch of Misfits | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_8ad43dc9 | comment |
Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: Let's see...a criminal, a pirate, an assassin, an outcast, a general, a fugitive, and a thief. Definitely not the sort of people you'd expect to become gods. Later characters are considerably less ragtag, though. | |

"Not So Different" Remark | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_984ef9ef | comment |
"Not So Different" Remark: Urzael notes that, despite their very different personalities, he and Val have similar origins. Val notices the similarities as well, and openly wonders if the reason he hoped Urzael could change was because Val himself wants to change from the person he used to be. | |

Ambition Is Evil | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_9e1e14ea | comment |
Ambition Is Evil: Interestingly inverted if you look at the metaphysics behind becoming a Pretender. To become a Pretender requires giving up greater ambitions of godhood to instead rule over a mere Shard, meaning that the less ambitious characters are the villains while the more ambitious ones are the heroes. | |

Our Vampires Are Different | |
| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_9f63d4f1 | comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: They're called Bloodlords (or Bloodladies depending on the gender), and they're native to Rousson, but otherwise, they're fairly standard. Emmeline is revealed to be one midway through Nise-no-Tengoku, and she and her brother had made a deal with a mysterious assassin for a way out of the city and a cure; in return, the assassin asked they find Val, for currently unknown purposes. | |

| Cradle Of Gods (Roleplay) / int_d32cd9f5 | comment |
Cast Full of Gay: The cast is mostly female, and a good chunk of them have no reserves about flirty banter with each other. Of the male members of the party, Mikias had a brief flirtation with another man (which he has some issues over) and Val is largely uninterested in romance. | |
