GUIDE FOR GOD CREATION:
>Name
What are you known as?
>Domain
What are you the God of? Anything goes! Be creative!
1. Your domain should have a fitting concept. Yes, theoretically you could be the God of "Otters, Sausage and Quartz", but this is not optimal for marketing. It is best if your domain can be explained in one word, for example "God of Fire", "Goddess of the Moon", "Herald of the Gods", this way you will gain new followers for your religion easier.
2. A 'bigger' domain is not necessarily better. A 'God of Nature' will have countless rivals that also claim such domain. A 'God of Horses' on the other hand has it easier to really claim his domain for only himself. In addition, a bigger domain doesn't mean you are stronger, because your actual power comes from faith of your mortal followers.
3. Think about your domain well! It is hard to change it once mortals have a certain image of you. Domain can change, but only organically. 'God of the Stars' can grow to 'God of the Heavens' but 'God of the Sea' probably won't end up as 'God of Fire'.
>Appearance
This is how you appear in dreams, imagination and also to other Gods. It can be whatever form you like. For example: Human, Giant, Animal, Monster, Eldritch...
Because of the Pact of Solomon, you can't incarnate in the physical world yet. You will have to work through symbols and altars.

>Commandments
Your most important rules and tenets. Can be changed over time. Ask yourself: How do your followers show faith, what do they offer as sacrifice to empower you further?
The stricter the rules the fewer followers you will recruit, but your followers will be more fanatic and loyal, giving you more power per capita. This is good for Gods with unmarketable domains, like disease or something.
