Morana have a “God complex”, or at least she wants to become a God. She believes the human race as a whole to be inferior (excusing herself). She doesn’t dwell on emotions (at least that's what she thinks, but she is a very emotional person herself; she doesn’t care about other people’s emotions or recognise her own emotions). She puts logic and science above any type of reasoning. Morana wants to know everything, from the why to the how, as she believes knowing everything in the universe will help her become a God. She wants to understand the universe, reality and deep down inside humans.
Nevida believe that she is the perfect being, the perfect human that goes beyond human limitations. She was created in the labs to become a human perfect evolution. She thinks that she is above human. A god. In contrast to Morana, she doesn’t believe that knowledge is needed to be a God, but being powerful, being perfect. Yet somehow, she is also imperfect at being perfect and doesn’t understand the whys and hows of humans. Not that it matters to her. She believes she is the perfect being, but that she is missing a piece to become a God.
They both want to understand the universe and become a God. This story is their race to godhood, but also, along the way, acceptance. When both of their universes merge and their worlds change beyond imagination and crumble, they find each other side by side
This could be interesting... But gods are tricky things to play with.
What non-god magic or power could elevate these characters to the divine?
What does "perfection" ultimately mean?
How much of these characters will be left if/once they become gods?
The universe is a really big place, and eternity is a really long time--no one else anywhere in the universe has tried this? Or will these ladies meet those others/gods?
Maybe it's just me, but I feel that gods demand a LOT of explanation. Unless you're doing a kind of "Divine Parody" where these characters learn to be human by chasing the divine--because that's a story worth reading.
Yeah, it's the latter where the characters learn to be human by trying to become a "god". Both have different ideas of how to become a god and what a god is. Morana thinks it is knowledge vs Nevida think it is power. I still have to work on the power/magic system.
interesting concept. I like it.
There's a great manga "Kurohime" where a person attempted to challenge the gods in order to make a better world for humans....and lost.
