Elder God Height!

Maligorn

Sometimes it's described, and sometimes it's not, but I'd like to know if all the Elder Gods are meant to be towering over all mortals, or if their physical proportions are actually normal (or even shorter than normal, as per the Urchin in Ivory probably?) The reason I'd like to know is so that I know if I can clasp Their hands or do things that wouldn't look awkward due to an extreme disparity in height.

Gods can make Themselves look however They want, from gigantic to the teensiest thing ever.  Sometimes They even go with a non-physical form entirely!

Yeah, what Xen said. You probably don't want to emote an action in relation to the God's size unless it's explicitly stated in the description, or they made an emote to give you an idea in the first place. Like if a God emoted kneeling down to be "eye level" with you, then it's probably safe to assume they're around twice as tall as you at the current moment. At least, that's what I try to do, personally.

You need to create the thread as a Question first (when you click on "create" there is an option to "ask a question").  You may be able to edit it to change it to a question, but you need a certain number of points to be able to edit a post after the first hour..

Alternatively, an Admin can edit it to make it a question (Eventru used to do it on a regular basis).
