It's a lot harder to do once the dust settles. Unless you routinely shove your face into the dirt before inhaling.Well dwarves do need some air in the long run. And inhaling ashes isn't hard if there's plenty in the air.Vulcanic ashes are microscopicly small and razor sharp. They're pretty bad for the lungs....If inhaled.
Not the "have kids" part, the "Honey, let's have the kids guard our Afterlives from attack by various horrible monsters of Nothingness, okay?" part.I still imagine they'd be a bit less mature than a full god.Befriend her, mutual benefits, alliance, spending time talking with her, show her our good side, woo her, impress her etc etc.
Also, you didn't address the other points. Or how you would convince Serena to do this...
So? They'd be gods, forever tied to defending an Afterlife. It would be like if your parents stuck you in a building to protect it from attack.Both Serena's and Donuts afterlives will be pretty much paradises, and i did say that the godly offspring would be for both Serena and Donut. I wasnt saying we could hog the offspring.Something that doesn't resent us for condemning their own children to eternally guard the Afterlife? Something that won't alienate Serena (they'd be her kids, too)? Something less valuable?What could possibly surpass a squads worth of gods who could have any combination of 6 different areas of influence in defense?Because we want our kids to have a better life than that?Well, since we seem to be accepting the deal anyway (I'm hesitant, it seems like something that'll bite us down the line), should we try to casanova it and use our first favor to ask her on a date?+1
we need to start producing our very own god-spawn. and we have a Goddess here who is ready but not yet willing.
To fortify our afterlife against void-spawn, why not add the offspring of Donut/Serena to the afterlives of both Gods alongside any angels we make?
Nor did i say tat our godly offspring couldn't help their parents in the real world. Just that their main job would be to protect the souls.I'm against having children to give them jobs. We could ask them to "help around the house," so to speak, but I would rather not force them into positions of extreme difficulty, danger, and importance without asking them (or, ideally, them asking us).

Act out to the best of my crazy ape ability behind Mercer's back so that the fairy girl imitates it. After all, there has never been a better role model than a hyperactive pyromaniac chimp. If anyone tries to kill or eat Mercer's fairy, kill and eat them first.[3] The fairy applauds. Mercer glances over his shoulder and notices you.
Go back south, and in my drunkeness, eat Mercer's fairy... because.... Hm... Idk... I just wanna find out if fairies taste like chicken.[2] You start running south.
Give Up Existence or Become Lich[1] Respawn?
Eat potatoHm...a bit undercooked. And by "der" I mean "".
Grab the nearest person, set them on fire, and push them back into the pod[4,3v4] Persus resists your attempts!
Respawn if dead.Hm...you seem to be strangely alive...
Kill Persus13.

In Hospice(Celestia's city), the few people at the gates refuse your Eladrin entry, and the rebellion overwhelms the ruling class and takes over. It begins settling down, and a worrying set of laws rise into being. One being that 'idol worship' is illegal. They seems to give prayer to nature and the world as a whole, and to them, pledging oneself to any one aspect of it, is sinful. How utterly and truly ridiculous.They certainly deny our separate existence, which basically means they see (for instance) Jebyg and myself as the same entity. Frankly, I see that worse than not being believed in.
It's not for us.I say we do the same, but with a medium sized golem. We want to give our best effort as a gift, after all. Can we have 4 arms yet? Also can we use a different power sigil, or do we need to use Earth?I want a sleek person sized Golem with wind power. Cone head too. We will have a assassin yet.
I meant to type that they don't have the Slow Learner tag.QuoteSLOW_LEARNER, making them about as smart as humansHonestly Slow Learner is the "stupid" tag to me... or rather whatever creature has it is stupid.
So naw, Humans are smarter then Giants.
They...actually are, if you read the raws and ignore my toyp.Quoteany halfway intelligent giant would be wearing bootsSo yeah, they are kinda not halfway intelligent.
