The talk about Greek mythology gave me an idea to post some stuff from KMC.
Part 1
Some of you might know my religon is Heathenism (Belief and philosophy of the viking). I got pe'd off with Marvel's bad writing of the Norse gods so I decided to make my own Heathen Marvel Universe. I haven't completely fleshed it out but here are some main differences between Earth- 999999999 and Earth 616.
1. The Gods managed to fend off the Celestials. All the other pantheons were destroyed except the Asagardian pantheon ( pantheon includes elves, dwarves etc).
2. All The Asagardian major gods (Thor, Tyr, Heimdall etc) are more or less as powerful as Odin. Leadership of the Gods is on a rotation basis. Thor was once the leader of the gods. Loki is not evil. Odin has an evil brother called Othin.
3. Everyone on earth still worships The Norse Gods but how they exactly do it varies from country to country. The whole world has a norse feel to it.
4. There is no X-gene but the God gene because the gods started to inter-marry with humans. The X men are called the God men. Some mutants are given certain names because their powers are seen to descend from certain gods. If you have superhuman strength you are said to have Thorite genes for example.
5. Magic is more powerful and technology is at 19th Century level. ( something I might change....the tech bit)
6. Captain America is Captain Germany his ancestors did not move to America. Captain Germany fought against Hitler who was trying to revive a twisted version of Viking Culture. The Holocaust never happened to the extent it did in this world. Captain Germany has magical powers drawn from the Norse God of combat Ull.
7. At the present time The Gods have become more distant to humans because they have become corrupt. Othin has started to take over the world with the Frost and Fire Giants and some Dark Elves.
Part 2
General fell of Earth- 999.... : Imagine 1930's Chicago, Victorian England, Dark, Middle Ages with a high-tech gothic feel.....
1. Agatha Harkness (Character from FF) is the witch supreme of this earth. She practices witchcraft and honours (we like to use the word honour instead of worship in heathenism) the Godess Freyja. This version of Agatha Harkness is alot younger and more sensual.
Her rival is Dr Schwartz (Dr Strange) a wizard he is the second most powerful person at magic on this earth. Dr Schwartz is evil and resents the fact that Agatha is more powerful than him and is a woman. DR Schwartz has a Chinese servant who follows his orders but hates his guts. His servant honours a Chinese incarnation of Thor called Liu Kang. Dr Schwartz has no affiliation to any gods and constantly ridcules his servant for being religous.
2. Jotuns (Giants). Jotuns were for the most part ousted from earth after WW2 (This is actually a different war in this timeline happened 1000s of years before mainstream WW2). As a result migrated to Kree, Skrull and Shiar Empires. Unfortunately they became intergalactic mobsters. In this timeline the Shiar Imperial Guard was specifically set up to eradicate the jotun threat and protect the Royal family. Jotuns became so confident at one point, they tried to intimidate Galactus......they got fried. At the present time they are not as powerful but are still a major force. This is due to the fact of the Imperial Guard joining forces with the Kree and Skrulls to weaken the jotun threat.
Not all jotuns are bad but they have a bad reputation through out the Galaxy and on earth and a significant proportion are involved in intergalactic crime. Jotuns rely less on magic and more on technology, they are highly advanced. Rumours have it they are making plans with Kree and Skrull outlaws to try and take over Earth.
Jotuns are not giant in appearance. Tend to be taller and stockier than average. Fire giants have glowing eyes and give off low emissions of heat. Frost Giants have dark blue skin, and give off low emissions of cold. I may alter this stuff later.
3. Raganarok (Apocalypse), is a cross between the mainstream Apocalypse and The Kingpin. He is the descendent of the Jotuns and posseses vast high tech and magical artifacts. He is base of operation is New York.
4. Ironman is a descendent of the Dwarves ( he is not aware of this) but is not religous. His dwarf genes make him ill in sunlight and several hours of exposure can kill him. This prompted him to make his magical tech suit to protect him from sunlight and jotun goons.
Being a descendent of the dwarves gives him the ability to create advanced magical artifacts and the ability to combine it with hi-tech. He is just recently gaining hi-tech equipment from the jotuns, he hates doing this because of their criminal connections but sees it as a neccesary evil.
Well basically ive got more but basicaly im going to have to put it to a rest for awhile. Im going to try and create a timeline and a bio for major characters. The undead are also going to play an important role on this earth and they are like a whole different race with different types of undead with different attributes and powers, some evil some bad.
