    Sheesh, you guys have been gods for all of 2 days and everything's starting to descend into madness and chaos.

My totem animal is the donkey, but mostly for the symbolism, as there are not many to be actually found in my cube.
    That is...extremely detailed and specific. Good job. oO

    Too complicated for me!

    My Sphere is much simpler.

    Just get down to Earth and spread the love.

    ...but y'know, I guess if you want some staple crops and such, that's cool too.

    Now that I've ascended to the gardens of godhood, it's like the entire planet is my lawn. Possessed of an elder knowledge, there could be only one outcome.

    Or... send your avatars down to the Prime Material Plane to establish libraries and universities, teaching mortals literacy, mathematics, architecture, political science, astronomy, astrology and meditation.

    Or that ....

    Actually that's what I meant when I said I'd give them jobs. But they have to prove themselves, my job interviews are very challenging.

    Sending mortals on doomed quests doesn't seem particularly wise... But don't mind me. I've been trying to create an Chianti Elemental.

    Not going as smoothly as it did with the Rosé.
    Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

    Who said anything about being Doomed? Going to College is like going on a Quest, not everyone makes it and of those that do only a handful reach the top pinnacle of academic success. Failing doesn't make you Doomed.

    Just wait until I lead my rooster army to bring back Order to this world, while appealing to my enemies' reason, to make them understand that this madness doesn't help anyone.

    Sky Father can always just kill us off and ask the Plot Gods for a new set.
