I only know the prevailing mythos of the legends, and how they have to work now that other legends have taken place of what people put them as formerly. In the case where I can't rectify the legend being an entirely different aspect, I just don't bother. This only applies for trios and other minor legends, though.

>>18235316 Well, I'll also say that I find Celebi to be more the servant of Dialga, the proper ruler of time.
I never truly figured out something of that nature for Jirachi, as it's power can completely alter reality as we know it. Or maybe it rather displaces you into the chosen alternate reality that already exists, but the "you" of this reality is not aware of it's existence. All possibilities and timelines exist in the complex space/time that Dialga and Palkia created. It could be an offshoot of both.

So, give yourself the powers of the legend of your choosing, except on a smaller scale. As I said before, only the minor legends really have that much overlap. One can separate the higher legends easily, although the only one I've never been able to place exactly was Lugia. So I have a legend that is strongly associated to water, but is not Water type itself. Kyogre is the ruler of the Ocean, so then what? Do I make it the ruler of the flipping tides? It's the only thing I can think of, not to mention that will give it a dual opposition to Ho-oh as the Sun and Fire. (the moon and water, as the moon affects tides) Manaphy and Phione are the immediate ones under Kyogre, as Manaphy is Prince of the Sea. I often have them represent cold and warm water respectively. (what causes the egg to hatch differently)

>>18235680 Note: Lugia is not the moon itself, as that has two legends of it's own that are more minor to Lugia. Nor is Ho-oh the sun really, as it's more the everlasting flame of resurrection.

>>18235680 Although Kyogre is King of the Ocean, Lugia could be the bringer of Storms and Lunar Tides.
Does that help?
Anonymous
>>18235759 Lugia is more about -not- bringing the storm though, isn't it?
Kyogre wants to make more oceans, Lugia wants to protect the world from storms.
I don't know how that would apply to any disciple though.

Quoted By:
>>18235791 The disciple could have control over the weather possibly? Only pertaining to storms though.
Keep in mind not every god is an ally to each other. Maybe Lugia is trying to keep Kyogre from flooding the Earth, therefore have the power to control storms.

I actually finished up copying each deity into a pastebin last night, but I still want to include many more legendaries. I'll like the pastebin and some rough entries that other's have submitted. Also, let me know if you want to remake any (e.g., Ho-Oh) to include other legendaries into an umbrella type deal (Celebi as a lesser deity underneath Dialga and Xerneas)

Furthermore, Zekrom's utopia is considered antithetical to Regigigas's agenda. Regigigas followers are permitted and even encouraged to obstruct or destroy progress toward Zekrom's utopia and are forbidden from providing any aid to its advancement. >Taboo: Destruction of any man-made object is frowned upon, though it can be justified for the sake of creating a monument. The greater the object, the greater the punishment. Destroying one's own creation for any reason will result in one's powers being revoked. >Endeavour: Workers posses superhuman strength, speed, will and stamina. The more tasks a follower accomplishes and the more people followers can successfully motivate, the more these increase. Stamina can rise to the point where you never tire or need to sleep. >Artistry: The follower gains the power to create anything they can imagine, so long as they have the proper tools and raw material. However, Regigigas followers don't automatically know how to use tools or weapons created this way, unless they are tools to create more monuments. >Collective effort: All workers of Regigigas form a hivemind, where they share all skills and knowledge among one another.

Regirock, Registeel, and Regice, The Elemental Golems – “We were created to create.” Followers of The Elemental Golems are tasked with constructing new things. Although disciples of Regigigas are to create monuments in homage, the Elemental Golems seek to aid followers create monuments that are nearly indestructible.
Taboo: Followers are forbidden to destroy any creation, even the works of Zekrom. If the followers does destroy a creation, s/he will be encased in the Golem’s element and absorbed. (e.g., a follower of Regirock will be encased in stone and absorbed, becoming one with Golem, but having no power or control).
Elemental Manifestation: Choose to receive an infinite supply of raw material from Regirock, Registeel, or Regice.
Regirock: Manifest indestructible stones. The quality and beauty of stone increases with favor.
Registeel: Manifest precious metals. The quality and shimmer of metal increases with favor.
Regice: Manifest unmeltable ice. The translucency and color of ice increases with favor.
Elemental Forge: Choose to receive armor that correlates to the Golem of your choosing. The durability and intricacy of the armor increases with favor.

In 13th Age, gods are something people barely know about. Instead of using gods in, 13th Age players are related to icons, which can be anything from a celebrity with great influence to a group of people wrecking havoc somewhere. An example of icons in the Pokemon world:
>Team Rocket >Elite Four >Brock >Misty >Wattson >Team Plasma Etc.
To use icons properly, each player has 3 points to share among the icons they want. A point represents a d6, so at the start of each session the player rolls that many d6 for each icon. For each 6, something very good from that icon happens. For each 5, something good, at a cost, happens.

Sometimes they have a script/premade story they're working from sometimes they make it up on the fly but this guy is the primary story teller. Everyone else creates a character based on one of the archetypal classes(playing to the archetypes or against them as they want) and chooses a bunch of options for either flavor (backstory/planned futures) or crunch(mechanical bonuses) and sometimes both.
Then the GM starts telling his story and the PCs purposefully or accidentally take that way-off track(this is a thing that happens every time, prove me wrong). Some people get really into it and its an amateur theater group others are more removed, it depends on your group but feeling silly for yourself and others is part of the package.
It can sometimes be hard to get into because there is a large backlog of possible books/options so its easy to feel outpaced if someone has minmaxed their guy to do massive damage and make you measly fighter seem useless and you've fallen into some trap of subpar mechanics. Also, DnD tends to be more combat heavy than some other games out there. Both these facts can be doubly true for convention pick-up games or DnD nights at your Friendly Local Gaming Store because there is less/no certainty that you'll be back next week to continue the story.
That said, check out your FLGS. They may have a wanted board to get your foot in the door. There are skype groups and IRC groups, most colleges have at least one group that plays table top games. Check out

Keep in mind that there are about 3 kinds of DnD out there right now so don't buy anything(especially not a whole library) and most of them don't translate from edition to edition until you've found or founded a group who wants to play the edition you enjoy.
Also also, don't get hung up on DnD. There are a lot of really cool games out there and things that are more rules-lite (anything written by Viral is good for pick-up and play and has free PDFs, Traveller is a easy to run Space Opera system, Car Lesbians is certainly a game) might help you create a group and focus on story telling instead of dice rolling.

So...Victini follower vs Genesect follower. Who wins?
Anonymous
>>18249765 I feel as though since the golems represent the ages of human history (ice age, Stone Age and Iron Age) something, nothing major, should relate to this. Perhaps something along the lines of Registeel advocating industrial society/technological progression, Rock promoting Agrariaism and simple civilized living, and Ice endorsing a wild hunter gatherer type living, or with each having taboos regarding the other ages.

>>18276436 I think we should just leave arceus out,I can't think of any balance to it
like those who chose none of the deities is chosen by arceus but he can't interfere with any of the the other followers or dieties
so he basically just becomes a witness to all of it without being able to do anything
New Deity OP !!OmwnSnYUMcp
>>18276687 I was thinking that he could be the neutral deity, one who seeks righteousness and smites the wicked. He nullifies the powers of "evil" deities (one's that lead followers to kill or cause harm) and judges them. He could also provide his followers with the ability to Convert of Rectify followers (he's the only one with the power to provide this ability) that need to be shown the right way. This doesn't mean it'll always work, but he'll be a more powerful version of Zygarde, trying to preserve balance. Essentially, he's like a Priest or Paladin equivalent in D&D.

>>18274834 Ok. Here's a basic one
>Regice >Keeper of the Ancient >"There was a time where monsters ruled and only the true and tested triumphed. They shall triumph once again" >Agenda: restore the ancient practice of tribal living, hunter-gatherer lifestyle as to bring fourth the strongest men >Taboo: The use of "excessive" technologies that overly ease survival, or worse yet, make life leisurely. This includes that endorsed by Regirock and Registeel >"Excessive" technologies are removed, and a true respect of nature's power replaces it, granting the player exceptional survival skills, with which they can sustain themselves independently or help party members, though only a small amount. The follower can also capture any animal if it is in proximity >Regirock >Bearer of Civilization >"Just as Man was molded from the dirt, his success shall be as well" >Agenda: Promote simple agrarian living as to find both sustenance and fulfillment >Taboo: Adhering to the barbaric hunter-gatherer lifestyle of Regice or the non-pure and destructive industrial lifestyle of Registeel >Regirock: Followers are granted exceptional agrarian abilities allowing them to instantly know the lay of the land, grow and bring any plant if given access it or its seeds and can sustain the majority of the party at minimum >Registeel >Advancer of the Modern >"Destiny lies in the future, and the future is defined by Technology" >Agenda: Develop and disperse as many beneficial technologies as possible and improve upon current ones as to advance the state of civilization >Taboo: The barbaric and simpleton lifestyles of the other Golems, which only hold humanity back. >Followers of Registeel have great ingenuity and craft skill, allowing them to forge any technology if given the resources, at the cost of a lack of natural wilderness skill Anonymous

>>18276436 Here's one I have OP, please have a look and tell me what you think.
>Cobalion >God of Justice >Agenda: To maintain and uphold justice, and to defend the weak and helpless. This can be achieved through any means necessary. >Taboo: Disciples should never knowingly commit a crime or use prejudice when enforcing justice. >Justicar: Disciples of Cobalion become extremely efficient and durable in combat, particularly if they are wielding a sword; and this allows them to easily fight on level with Pokemon. This strength should only be used during acts of benevolence or justice. Upon using these powers for any personal or vindictive purpose their pact with Cobalion will be broken, they will be branded as a traitor and other Disciples of Cobalion will be instructed to hunt you down and kill them. >Eye of Cobalion: With this terrifying glare Disciples can strike fear into the hearts of others. How effective this is depends on thier own confidence and bravery, as well as that of their opponent. Usually this will be enough to make anyone flee or cower in fear, but particularly brave individuals may merely falter for a moment. This ability can also be used to force others into doing their will or act in servitude. Using this ability for personal or vindictive purposes will incur the same punishment as Justicar. >Noble Spirit: Disciples of Cobalion can summon a familiar of Terrakion, Virizion of Keldeo to aid them in battle. This familiar will obey their commands, but will seek their own justice if not given commands. Wielding the same strength and skill of the real Sacred Swordsmen, these familiars can overpower most mortal creatures. If the Disciple is guilty of crimes or instruct them to act unjustly, then these familiars will instead turn on their master and attack them. As part of this ability Disciples may seek telepathic council from all four of the Sacred Swordsmen. I suppose it could use some revision, but I think this would be a good addition.

It's your choice, but having just one option, whether it's just Cobalion of the Sacred Swordsmen as a whole, seems a lot better than having all four of them as separate entities.

>Lugia All of the dex entries list it as either living alone at the bottom of the sea (and we can rule out Sea God since Kyogre exists), or creating 40 day storms with a single flap. From that info, maybe a storm god of some kind? I know t would clash with the Genies should they get written, but there's not a lot else to work with. Considering the lore, it could also have a connection to the Legendary birds, maybe canceling them out or something.
>Shaymin Crap, all of it's entries are about purifying the environment, which kinda bites me in the ass
after writing up Zygarde's, which does the same thing . Maybe have it be part of that? I dunno honestly.
>Cresselia Obviously a foil to Darkrai, as a result a lot of it will probably end up being the inverse to a lot of things from him.
>Diance With all the talk about making diamonds and being "the loveliest sight in the whole world", I can see an immedeate goal of them making the world a more beautiful place. Not entirely sure about power wise, but Earthbending-esque abilities spring to mind to allow for the diamond making.

It might be cool.

Quoted By:
>>18342111 In an actual battle, that seems likely. But keep in mind that followers of Victini can only manipulate the chance of succes in their favour, meaning there has to be such a chance in the first place. "Luck will only get you so far." A well-prepared plan might be able to account for this and overcome it (possibly by a group of Genesect followers creating a viable strategy with back-up plans before engaging).
What also matters is whether or not the "Luck" ability is active or passive. If it needs to be consciously activated, there are easy ways to take out a Victini follower, especially if you choose not to openly engage them in battle. No amount of consecutive victories and accumulated Luck will help them against a sniper bullet if they don't have said ability turned on at all times.
