I'll do my best to cover everything however. But it's turning out to be pretty difficult. A lot has happened!
Basic cosmology is slightly easier. Domina is the star mother. She formed two stars in the beginning which fused into one. Joloth made a planet and moon, the planet is heated from within by the tear Domina shed at her stars colliding. Later, Caliban made a second moon and Domina a new star, though only a brown dwarf hiding somewhere in Creation.
Frackt froze the main planet and along with Domina's Light this has somewhat melted and life gods sprang up.
Thus the main system is a large star with a planet orbiting it, with two moons. A second star also exists, with Caliban's moon and the main planet currently with minor life.
There is also the Lurker's realm with his/it's shadows, a different form of life. Major power, but thus far still building shadow beings and trading power for favors.
Other notable events include the invention of wine before life by Sleazus, the creation of the underdark caverns by Nihil None, and a simple though sapient races by Illarion and then taught to party by Sleazus again. The first bird and greenery have also been made by multiple gods working together.
I'll do my personal stuff next, as I remember that well.
OthernDivines that survived the transition to the Second Age, speak up and describe yourself! Your name, your Domain and power, titles and great works, Speak them and let your Words be heard!

Molinoth, the World Serpent, Moon-Child, the Remaker of Worlds
Formed when the Light of Domina’s Sun landed on the satellite planetoid made by Joloth, then woke and hatched from the satellite when the sunlight was shattered and turned into stars by accident due to Joloth. Ate and regurgitated his satellite eggshell to make the Moon, which glows naturally with the sunlight that fell on it.
One of few Divines thus far with a known form, a great snake with wings of Night, formed by he and Lurker forging Shadow and Starlight together. Built up the Mountains and tore the clouds apart to make the Sky. Cannot perform Creation, but can Recreate nearly anything.

Stepping sideways into Creation, Rinokan looks around itself.
The Divines working towards their true purposes, a new world being made before it.
To the other Divines, Rinokan appeaered.. Old. Not that a Divine cannot choose to appear as they desire, but the aeons hung heavy on the Divine.

Rolled 30 (1d100)
I decide to see what happens if I mess with the sapients shadows. The amount shows a percentage of shadows I messed with.
>>44505596
Domina, of divine fury. I believe the first god to emerge, I created the first few stars through which to spread my divinity, and seem to carry the title of Starmother. My domain is the stars and the creation, influence and maintenance of them, though my actual power is to burn away everything with my divine glory. My splendor and fury is great enough even to strip bare gods to their core soul, their basic divine essence, which is important because the stars in this reality are simply bare, divine souls burning in the void in all their grace and purity.
An unfortunate side-effect of this, is a persistent hunger I am possessed by, with a want to consume other gods with which to make new stars out of.
>>44506007
>the sunlight was shattered and turned into stars by accident due to Joloth.
I believe we attempted to retcon this to merely an equal distrubution of starlight across the worlds and other celestial objects, since creating even a single star is such a monumental act, and also something of a trespass into my domain.
Rolled 56 (1d100)
>>44506192
First things, first. Rolling for prominence, to relight the cosmos and see what we find. Looking for a Divine Shadow in particular.

Greetings, welcome to creation Rinokan. What do you need of me?
Rolled 5 (1d100)
I decide to shine a little of Domina's light to a bit of my realm. The amount rolled is the amount of light shown.
>>44506396
They weren't true stars, but more lots of tiny pinpricks of sunlight, I think? The sort of thing that can fall into a planet and are in fact orbiting the main one.
They're not huge and far away like the real thing, that's for definite.
>>44506441
I-It's not l-like I wanted to give you the light or anything!

Check the end of the first age, I tossed a newly created one at you.

pfft, nice try. want a drink?
>>44506448
Countless shooting stars? That's sensible.
>>44506481
I'll not be fed like some animal on display at the petting zoo!
Actually strike that, I'll eat anything you throw my way. Recount the roll instead to notice the Divine Shadow conveniently pushed into my field of divine perception.
Hello everyone!
>>44506496
Might want to check the people, I messed with their shadows earlier and didn't care to check the aftermath.
Can we multi-roll for addedd effect? Also is it reasonable if I sacrifise something to add as a + modifier?
>>44506425
Welcome back, perhaps.. This is not my first Creation young one. But it is my last.
Worlds have come and worlds have gone... I still remember my first Creation the clearest however.The ages are long gone, but to stride the world's as the God of- well... It doesn't really matter any longer.
Do all you can to make your Creation a fine one, for our duty is our gift.
By now I suspect I have seen nearly as many as the Witness, but always hiding away when the world ends.. now I am tired, and cold and alone. Perhaps I should have faded with my Creation, or perhaps I was meant to last until now. I used to be so sure it was one way or the other, but now?
Ah, apologies. I did not mean to ramble on so, to the matter at hand. My time is done and my flame is dying. I would flare brightly once more than fade in the space between Worlds, always hiding.
I would be a Star. Greater or Lesser, I care not. But to be a part of Creation once more.
I am RINOKAN. And I was a GOD before this World. My Created people grew strong and wise, my Domain stretched further than the furthest Stars!
And I would now Die.

Expect about 39~40% of the pop to be utterly scared or sciencing or doing somwthing. A good roll is needed.

Rolled 59 (1d100)

Didn't you do that with the brown dwarf?
>>44506642
This is a big responsibility to place upon me but a fair request, which I accept. I know not of the creations from whence you came but I know of the one you now go into, burning and pure.
And thus a willing sacrifice comes forth! With a ravenous hunger tempered by an indelible gratitude, I fall upon the old god and consume him. And thus, within the crucible of my womb he is stripped bare till none remains but his very divine soul, pure and immutable, ready to grace the cosmos with its splendor.
Rolling to birth a new star into existence, called Rinokan. If you like, Rinokan, you can roll as well and maybe we can combine the results to determine strength and intensity of the new star?
To any who will listen!
our lives are short and dark.
the beasts of the air destroy us, and in the caves, our shadows move without us!
we require a light in the dark!
>>44505421

Far from Sun's light where the land is cold, I show myself as the Moon Child.

What would you request of the World Serpent?
>>44506864
Want me to "fix" your shadow problems?
>>44506864
I will fight for you. I am the light in the darkness. The point in the heavens. Give me homage and I will give you my protection.
>>44506959
With a final laugh, Rinokan turns to Lurker.
Did you not guess? I am myself the Shadow of ancient worlds! Take care in your space between worlds, shade. For none can touch you there, as I know too well!
With that, the dying Shadow God turns back to the scorching light of divinity and casts himself within.
Rolled 87 (1d100)

Combined roll of 77, that's quite good. Thus, in a brilliant display, the new star Rinokan is birthed into existence. A main-sequence star of comparable intensity to the first star, which is impressive considering it was the resultant collision of two stars.
Sharing orbit with the first star for now, I intend to nurse Rinokan to stability before letting it go into the cosmos.
>>44506959
Opposed roll to the Lurker, to have consumed Rinokan in his entirety, shadow and all.

I was never YOUR shadow. I have always been mine own.
My Creation was raised and fell long before this world became. I was the King of Shadows and he Tyrant's Bane.

As I am unaware of the reason for the encroaching darkness, my desire would be to find out what is causing it, and then ideally to drive it back.
As it is though, by my current means I remain powerless.

We should gather other wayward stars, Great Queen, and bring them into your realm. Join their light to yours and we will resist the darkness.
Should not there be a way to increase power beyond rolling 1d100?
>>44507852
Suprisingly, I never thought to roll that high, I just felt like punishing for oversteping domains and boundries.

I think the only way is combined rolls if gods are working towards the same purpose?
Either way, I feel it's time for Rinokan to shine on his own. Thus I release the new star from my bosom and allow for him to stand on his own. My third born child, the second star.

Well, I think a combined roll of 131 is enough to push back the effect the dark had before.
Once again, light shines in the cosmos. And furthermore, so as not to burn the worlds to cinders, I act to push Rinokan out into the void to stand on his own away from his own conjoined sibling.
Thus, there now exist two solar systems;
- Oronix, the first star and so far, around which all the planets orbit
- Rinokan, the third star a good distance away, currently with no planets
And of course the brown dwarf, but who would want to make planets around that?

greetings divine one. we hear your rage in the shudders of the branches and the talons of the birds.
please understand! the wood from the trees is perfect for building things! already, we have made simple tools and dwellings.

My domain has been left too long. Unchanged since my formation. It is time to Remake my first work.
Taking the Light-blasted rock, Molinoth cracked it and, as he did upon the Earth in the First Age with the leavings of Nihil None, spread mountains upon the Moon. Remaking the surface, then digging deeper to Remake the stone and earth.
Retreating to the space between planets, Molinoth's saw his domain again.

The Moon, now patterned with mighty peaks, forged in Domina's Light and capable of repelling mighty assaults. Deep under the surface, great tunnels and chambers lay.
Yet the land still seemed.. Empty. The airless landscape lay perfect but dead in the Eternal soft divine light the rock released.
Considering all that he had seen, Molinoth took the light around him and Remade it so it flowed and moved as the water far below did. Releasing the Moonlight, Molinoth once again looked at his Re-creation

Okay, okay. I think I have it now.
The Moonlight Pool below him shone brightly, even more than the stone around him. Drinking deeply, the Divine was astounded to see the Pool's liquid flow back, distilling itself from the Light around it.
And the drink itself left Molinoth reinvigorated. A liquid form of his own essence! Truly worthy to be his Creation.

Though frail, the forest does sprout. Fed by the Sculptor's sea and the everpresent moonlight the ever present light they will, in due time, grow further.
Thus the Great Forest began. Of interest however, much of the green dulled on sinking their roots into the shore of the Moonlight Pool: Becoming metallic in appearance or grey. Thus the forest from the world of mortals appeared to have developed great green streaks that hinted at forests like their own than a blue and green marble. And for the Divines that walked the surface, a large silver and green wood with the Moonlight pool at it's centre.

Although I was always aware of the divine shadow the Lurker perhaps intentionally sent my way, I'd held off on consuming it because of all the commotion with the spreading darkness.
My hunger is too strong now though after so long, and having successfully located the divine shadow, I pursue and capture it with some difficulty. Once firmly within my grasp, I consume the entity in a darkening display. Although not a god, it does have a mark of the divine however, and thus endures the crucible of my womb. What results though is rather distressing, and even weakens me in the birthing process. I find I have expelled a stillborn star from my body, a black hole. An abomination of divinity and a wound upon reality, the stillborn star shares only my ravenous hunger and in all other ways the dark nature of its grandfather, the Lurker.
Greatly disturbed by this turn of events and the danger this failed child poses, I reject the black hole and seek to keep it away from creation by throwing it into the dark reaches of the unformed cosmos. Perhaps it may find its way back to its grandfather, but I only want it away from my burning children and view it as a horrible mistake.
>Rolling for strength of the black hole, the higher the roll the stronger it is but also the more unstable, as well as its effect on space around it. Roll possibly augmented by the Lurker.

And if we or your children do meet, you shall have a place with me in my domain, clad in moonlight. Now go! Go and show to me your potential!
