You wallow in a depressive state in the primal void of non-creation. The Adversary laughs derisively at your mental anguish, "Just like the nothingness eating away at you, you will never amount to anything. It is already inside the holllow shell that is you, a vast nothingness where any scrap of worth might have existed. All your efforts are futile, pointless. Just give up so that you can at last end this self-deception and at least serve some function in satisfying me before I too end."
The perception searing appearance of the Adversary, an ever shifting amalgation of everything you find ugly, pounds at your awareness like a constant visual nuclear barrage, interrupting your every attempt at forming a coherent thought.
Until finally the creative spark deep inside rebels at being constantly denied and frustrated, setting your entire being ablaze. It hurts even worse than the constant harrasment of the Adversary but in the pain there is a certain clarity of purpose, and calmness of mood as the gnawing hollowness inside is filled with a self-destructive heatlightmotionaction.
Create.
In Bullied Demiurges you may create up to two things per cycle. You may create three in your first active cycle due to a temporary self-destructive fugue burning state which awakens you from depressive nihilistic torpor.
You may create locations which encompass other things by focusing two creates into it. Regions which encompass creations which encompass creations take three creates, etc. Collaboration between demiurges is possible
Localized metaphysical alterations can be easily created, non-localized require collaboration and three creates.
Each cycle you may interact with one thing that exists, trying to teach it something, or change it or make it more or less.
Each cycle you may attempt to destroy something. Generally you are bad at this, but some things just need to be destroyed.
You can protect one creation or location from Destruction or the actions of the Adversary per cycle. Collaboration might better protect weightier creations
The Adversary can destroy one creation, and corrupt one creation per two active Demiurges. The Adversary also has one Doom per cycle, which can destroy or corrupt anything, even if it is protected.

Creative Urge: The thing you want to have exist the most, e.g water, chairs, love. You create double, whether in quantity or quality as might be appropriate in context. Try to be relative narrow in scope.
