How to make a goal for mortals and gods by TheUn-noticedKohai
#MythicalCovenant
First lets ask the question, what is a goal in MC?
-- A goal is a task or objective one cannot complete without the help of the other.
-- Goals must be able to be completed without having to use the Wish in the Holy Grail Games.
-- Goals Must have an obtainable conclusion. Anything that has to deal with the whole world is logically possible, but in this rp it CANNOT be possible.
-----------
How does one go with making a goal?
-- Well this rp is heavily based on story and character growth. Coming up with stories for your character is tough yes but thats what makes it the most fun.
-----------
Ask your self these questions when coming up with your goals. (works for both Gods and Mortals)
-- Why do they even play the games?
-- What motivates them?
-- Why go out and get a contract at all?
------------
Goals and Mortals cant all be vengeful and evil because not all people or gods are like that. It implies that the gods are being ill-treated and the world just sucks for the Mortals. If that's the case for this rp then this is a very spiteful rp and that's not what I and Enilia are going for.
------------
Example goals for both Gods and Mortals
--Why not say my character wants to see the world because they stayed in the heavens/cooped up for too long and the world changed so much. So their goal would be to travel

(Continuation of goal examples)
-- Why not have your god make friends with mortals because they want people to worship them again. (Gods die when they don't have any worshipers/ are forgotten)
-- Say if a loved one died. And the god/mortal cant put together an ideal memorial.
-- If a mortal is homeless they would probably want to make a contract so that they can get back on their feet again.
-- Finding cures for sickness
-- Building or refurbishing temples
-- Find a mate for life- *bricked*
-- Finding lost loved ones that you have no contact with
-- Learning empathy
-- Emotional/Mental journey (Basically character growth goal)
-- Finding a lost object
-- Completing a collection
-- ETC
------------
Goals don't have to be super excessive or intricate. Not every mortal gets a contract lol so they pray at a shrine for strength or help in the subject that the god is meant for. God's aren't instant problem solvers, but they can help
-------------
Hopefully, this all helps in the creation of making unique goals for characters. And helps shine light on some unclear topics of said goals.
-------------
I should also mention the Goal is separate from the Wish. The wish at the end of the game acts as a bonus. And its not necessary to put into the description of your character, especially mortals cause they don't know about the wish until after they have a contract. Only gods know about the games and bestow the knowledge on to their contracted mortal.

Re: I guess, since I didn’t see a revenge example, I thought revenge didn’t count.

Tsuki's a nice boi who doesn't want to hurt anyone, and he's selfless beyond compare. :'y
His motivator for a goal would have to be for someone else, or encouraged by someone else.
('>' ) my mind goes through a ton of scenario's before i finaly decide on a single thing, So i'll need a moment on that.
Honestly i wanted to throw my oc #Eonas in here as a sun god, but i thought his goal of "wanting to be worshipped more" sounded to...simple, to put him in... now i see i was probably mistaken, as this story seems a lot more light hearted than i originally thought.
>:V HHHHHHHNNNNN I NEED TO GET TO WORK THEN.

Being taught by the goddess of death, absolutely amazing! xD
Anyway, these are all possible goals I considered on my character ref. I will be considering another character but I am not completely sure if I want to divert my story development between two charas. So if I do decided to make a second character, all of these shall be considered once again ^0^
