Please read this entire post.

In the world, many things happen with seemingly no reason. Abnormalities, deviations from the norm... You are one of them. Born into this world a power ex nihilo, you have many choices. Starting off weak and fragile, hardly stronger than the average "human", as they call themselves, your powers will grow. The choice will be given to you: Will you reveal yourself to them, or work "behind the curtain"? Will you be their bane or savior? But the road to power will not be without toil. As a fledgeling being, you may wish to hide your true self from mankind for the present time. But for now, your journey begins...

Mortal Information
Name: (Your human form's name.)
Gender: (Male or Female.)
Age: (How old your human form is. 14-40 years. Note: You will not age.)
Appearance: (What your human form looks like. Be as descriptive as you like.)
Health: 10/10

Cult Information [Locked]

-This is a sandbox RPG. To put it simply, there is no goal. You are only bound to Earth, and occasionally, the Moon.
-The player limit is three. One spot has been reserved for ItalianSuperBoy, so there are technically two open spots.
-Be serious. Be as thoughtful as you can. Don't do anything like "I turn into Godzilla and eat everyone." or "I mind control the UN so I rule the world."
-Please let me know if you leave this RPG. That way, I can let other players into the game.
-I won't be able to update all the time. I will do my best, but worst case scenario, I may update a few times a week.
-At Level 10, you unlock your true form. This is when you break free from your mortal form, and show yourself for what you really are.
-If you die before unlocking your true form, you die for good and will have to restart. However, the rules change after you unlock your true form. If you die in your mortal form, you shift into your true form and will need to choose a new mortal form. If you die in your divine form, you will shift into your mortal form and will need time to "regenerate" without your powers.
-Lastly, this RPG is purely an experiment. Your sheet will evolve over time, this will most likely not be a conventional RPG, and it may be slow sometimes. And please be patient. This is my first attempt at an RPG.

Thank you, and best of luck to you, gods!

Since you asked, loco, I can probably let you have it if he never shows.
And since this is my first RPG, I'm going easy on myself. Three people don't seem too hard to manage.

You walk along the street, and enter the shelter. The filthy and sick are lying in rows across the floor. There is a young woman at the front desk. She seems entirely unconcerned. You walk up, and ask her if you could have any food. She looks up at you. "Sure, kid, but there isn't much variety." She leads you over to a pantry and unlocks it. "Take your pick. But not too much, okay?" She was right. There's almost nothing but canned soups, ramen, and bread. "There's a microwave you can use over there, if you need it." She points across the room. There is a microwave, a faucet, and dishware.

You take some bread, eat it, and walk out the door. Aside from the usual hustle and bustle, you see a stoner sitting down against an alley, and two people fighting in another.

(Like I said, this game's completely free-form. You can do anything you want. Perhaps you want to try to find somewhere quiet to practice your power, like an empty alley? If you have any questions or want any advice, feel free to ask!)

@Omnihero10 D: Tell you what, if someone leaves, you can have the next space. I didn't think this RPG would gather this much interest.

@Omni Exactly! Due to both the information, and my lack of personal experience.

You see a general store, motel, hardware store, and a few offices. Off in the distance, you can see the docks.

You run up to them, and strike the one who's winning in the face. [+1 XP] He's about eighteen, maybe 5'10", and fairly muscular. The other man, about sixteen, and thin, runs away. The winner, his nose dripping a little blood, glares you in the eye, then reaches his fist back to strike you.

(Remember, you have your powers. Weak, but there. Nobody seems to be looking, so you don't have to be [i]really[/b] subtle, but watch out.)

(Yes. You're a "god", so you don't really have any limits. But like I said, nothing absurd.)

Time is a concept, even free from the grasp of gods. However, you speed your movements up just a bit. [+1 XP] You manage to swing out of the way, and grab his arm and send your knuckles right into his nose again. [+1 XP] He's starting to look a little dizzy... Now could be a good time to finish him. He tries to pull his arm free.

I step out into the street, and begin walking down it. I go no where in particular.

You see many sights around you. There are street vendors, performers... The alleys seem to be quiet and free from people. As you continue, the city seems to be getting a little less dense.

(As a reminder, you can use your powers whenever.)

[What Powers can't I not have? For starters, I know I can't control time.]

I look at some of the performers.

(No time control, [but you can speed up your movements,] no shapeshifting, no immortality, no necromancy/zombification, [resurrection will be available in higher levels] and no mind control. That's what I have right now.)

You watch some of the performers for a few minutes. Two young men are breakdancing to Run-D.M.C.'s It's Tricky. They are rather talented. You see a man about 30 over by an alley who waves you over. He is holding an unlit cigarette.
