I am the Magician of Information. I am not all knowing, but I have collected many potions and bottles and I have a magic mirror that can tell me almost anything, but it will break if I stretch it's abilities to far (ie, ask a question it can't answer)
I stole this idea directly from Piers Anthony, author of the Xanth books.
Is this balanced?

No problem, however you do need to choose a side.

RPG etiquette
when someone wants to join an RPG he has to follow the rules set by the ones that started it, failure to comply remove said person from the RP at once
...or in plain english: if you don't play by the rules, you are out of the game

To Mvasseliv:
You have stated that you can burn everything. You shouldn't be able to burn things that are inflammable. Stone doesn't burn, neither does water.
You also said that you can teleport.
Teleporting is fine on its own. However these two abilities would cause you to be able to teleport anywhere start a fire and leave without anyone being able to do anything about it. This is too powerful.
When you said that your restrictions were that we must free some guy in your base that's heavily guarded, and then get a pendant as well. This still makes you unstoppable until we get the pendant and free that guy. This is against the rules, because you are still unstoppable as of right now.
I was trying to give you freedom over what you wanted for powers. After all this is your character.
So you are a Fire God. You can obviously start fires. What else do you want to do?
Another thing that you must keep in mind. I made a very detailed description of our fort defenses. You have made multiple posts that are simply, bursts into the fort. I don't mind you penetrating our defenses, but if you could at least tell us how you got past the underground moat and the 8 stone walls I'd be very interested.
But I want to leave you the choices of how you want your character, you just can't make yourself too powerful. I'd also try to work with your fellow Chaos members like Wolfman.
Thank you Lith.

I will align with chaos, seeing as how they seem to be outnumbered.
I am a shadow mage who was once aligned, as a normal mage, with order, but later defected to chaos, leaving the order alliance in disarray from which they only recently have recovered. There is a large price on my head should I be captured in order territory. I am a master of deceit and treachery, and have the ability to release a shadow that no one but myself can see through. However, the shadow immediately dissipates in the presence of sunlight.
Is this OK?

Sounds fine to me. However I don't understand how this is useful. If you would like, you could make yourself more powerful. (As long as you stick to the deception motif) So this means that you can hide anywhere behind your shadow?

Yep. And it kinda makes him invisible in caverns and stuff, where sunlight can't reach him. We need windows :/

Let me clarify. I can create darkness through magic, in which I am completely invisible, but in sunlight, that power is useless. My character is more of a manipulator than a fighter, so he rarely walks abroad in the day.

Spam Elemental - a mold-like creature of spam, unable to attack. What it can do is um... surround an opponent and hold him, making him unable to move from the spot.

Sounds cool to me. I'll remember to close up all doors at night.
Woock. If it's daytime, then we can have our fort open, because in order to get in you must come in from the sunlight.
I'll think of something to get some more sunlight down here. Any Sun Gods out there?
We need a some kind of description of the Chaos base. We don't even know what it looks like. Go to it Chaos losers. (It doesn't have to be as elaborate as my description)
I think we should come up with some kind of quest type thing to spice up this thread. Anyone have some ideas?

Why do you need a description of it? Afraid you will never see the inside of it?
How 'bout this: Exact same as yours, only the layout is backwards.

The spam creatures:
spam golem - a being made of highly compressed spam, unlike the spam elemental it cannot shapeshift, but can hit quite hard. They are slow and flammable, but the density of their spam enables them to continue fighting while they're burning (of course they eventually will burn down to ashes)
spam dragon - smaller than other kinds of dragons and unable to breathe fire, they are not at all useless. Only their insides are spam - rotten spam at that. It means that they can breathe poisonous spam clouds, which are really loose rotten spam particles. Since the clouds' structure is a lot less dense than in spam elementals, it catches fire a lot easier. Their skin, on the other hand, is not flammable at all.
spam demon - material beings representing the astral spirit of spam. They can curse others, which highly increases the pain and damage the cursed being suffers from attacks. For example, if someone punches a cursed person, it feels like a full blow with a sledgehammer. Spam demons are not made of spam and therefore not as flammable as spam elementals. They are also mediocre warriors, but are able of teleporting.
In order to summon a spam demon, a soul needs to be sacrificed.
spam giant - this is an enormous mechanical structure of vaguely humanoid shape made of various materials, both flammable and inflammable. The way it is built enables it to continue functioning once the flammable components are burned out, although not as effectively. Excellent siege fighters. They are powered by none other than spam.
Spam giants can only be summoned in open spaces (no caverns, buildings, forests etc.) and the non-spam components of the soon-to-be-Giant should be piled up close to the summoner.
