"...I must accept this."
"...Yes, there is no turning back now."
As the mechserpents are in stasis, cannibalize their bodies to expand my mechanical halo and consume their souls.
Then move on to the "blood cult." Consume them whole, soul and body.
Do the same to the necromancers.
Sing Sucker out with all the sarcasm I can summon.
Name: Anaconda
God Level: Minor
Power: 1
Sphere: Machinery and Murder.
Description: The bright red and brute serpent, which throttles its prey. An aura of floating cogs surround it, angrily.
Notes: Ensouled. Fleshy!
[2]
Anaconda, flung to the edge of the known universe, attempts to get back and eat the world but gets lost on the way.
Spawn as a random mortal baby born somewhere within the universe.
Make the most of my first decade as a mischievous, manipulative little brat.

You are born comatose due to the entropy crisis. You survive, but spend your first 10 years drifting in and out of consciousness.
Lilith notes the fact that the power drain has stopped, and assumes the gods on the outside have done their task, or at least started to. With this in mind, she spends a decade simply wandering through the Sanctuary and doing her best to re-invigorate the life of the forest without using any divine power.
Name: Lilith
God Level: Minor
Power: 2
Spheres: Life and Nature
Description: An entity born from the fertile flesh of Akahet's more hospitable areas, Lilith is a collection of plant matter that has molded itself into the shape of a humanoid.
[4]
Lilith does her best to keep the sanctuary intact and manages to keep it from degrading any further, at least.
1 power. Using a combination of available sould and divine might, mend the hole in reality. Should the decaying universe consume Akahet entirely along with the underworld and oozeworld, join Sucker in the portal if it seems safeish."
"What now?"
Name: Manor
God Level: Minor
Power: 1
Sphere (If major or minor god): Consciousness and Souls (the business of being sentient, including life and death)
Description: [The Observer]
[4+1]
Manor's power isn't great enough to fix the hole in reality, but he manages to halt its spread towards Akahet for the time being, holding it back personally.
That whole ending a drought with a rain of ebola blood analogy seems fitting for our current situation.
Move the Eaters of Cold to the other entropy points quicker to speed up the process.
"Both of you have done nothing to help this situation. Sucker, you're a pessimistic idiot. Ep, you're wasting your time. The entropy point problem is quickly being solved by the Eaters of Cold. The best way you can help would be to speed up the process or directly close some entropy points yourself, and then we can deal with the hole in reality."
Name: Credst
God Level: Major
Power: 1
Sphere: Creation and Destruction
Description: A humanoid of swirling blue and red energy with barely indistinguishable features and a bright sun rotating on top of a crescent moon as a hat. He has 4 hands.
Notes: The sun and moon atop Credst's head represent creation and destruction.
Destructive Acts: 6
Creative Acts: 6
Credst's hat has no damage.
[6] Credst shuttles the eaters of cold around via hucking them across space. it seems to work well enough.
"Both of you have done nothing to help this situation. Sucker, you're a pessimistic idiot. Ep, you're wasting your time. The entropy point problem is quickly being solved by the Eaters of Cold.

"You're right. I'll see what I can do about the entropy points without his power, then."
*Action moved to this post.
Spend 3 power on disposing of entropy points, maybe by dumping them in the hole.
Oh, wait, I forgot I can't actually do that anymore.
Donate 3 power to the Eaters of Cold's efforts. If Sucker attacks me, wager 1 power.
Name:Ep.
God level:Demi
Power:5
Sphere:The Weak. (Before I got demoted.)
Description:A little brown mouse.
Notes:Lives in an infinite subspace burrow.
Ep donates 3 power to the eaters of cold.
"What? Wait, really? But I made a cool speech and Anaconda even got some music for me and everything. How often does a god get to do that? I mean, I don't have a very large dataset but I'm guessing it's not very often. Like, really, after all this drama you're making me look like a fool. Oh well. Guess I can't complain for a bit of extra life. I suppose I'll find something to kill to cheer myself up."
1 Power: Jump into an Eater of Cold and boost my entropy powers to maximum. Since I produce entropy and they eat entropy, then this should result in a flow with net positive energy I should be able to absorb. Then use that power to create a portal to another world that isn't so fucked up (cross fingers for no Lurker).
Then I can hopefully immigrate and retire there and spend the rest of my days challenging mortals in a game of chess or something. Of course, any mortals or gods that want to follow me are welcome.
Name: Sucker, Demon of Entropy
God Level: Major
Power: 1
Sphere (If major or minor god): Death and Entropy
Description: A Skeleton wearing a dark cloak.
Notes: Holds the Edge of Oblivion. A scythe with the power to kill gods and slay souls.
Has impressed some necromancers.
Can pull souls of the dead from the underworld.
[5][5]
Sucker leaps into the....well its sort of a mouth...of an eater of cold and promptly begins producing as much entropy as he can. The eater does what it does best and converts that entropy into energy at a rather staggering rate. Sucker absorbs the power generated, gaining 20 power quite quickly. The Eaters multiply as he does this, and immediately go off to eat more entropy points.
Sucker, thus empowered, moves a bit away from the hole in reality and opens a portal to some other realm. He has no idea what realm or what it is like, but there is now a stable portal to it.
Power begins to flow back into the universe as the eaters of cold devour most of the points of entropy. Realms unfreeze and their populations begin to grow and become more active. The mechaserpents, Enal and his science vessel, and the spider dreadnought all fall into the black hole and chunks of the Oozeworld start to get pulled in as well. The hole in reality swallows up Borkle and his ship and continues to grow. The races of Alkahet, now more awake, begin to fear for their existence.
Power:
Full power to all remaining gods. The end of the universe is upon us.
