And now he's got a planet sized weapon capable of firing once to destroy the Ring. Aka the atmosphere of Despair.

Doesn't that technically mean he feels the atmosphere's pain? There are some gods that can light the very air aflame.
Or lightning.
Or something.

The Edge of the Galaxy

Unpertubed by any Gods, the strange fleet sets to work. Minod, the playwright hadn't moved from his placed at the Voidguard, hanging in space completely apathetic. The fleet appeared directly before him, ignoring the calls of the Voidguard. Smaller shuttles set out towards him and with stranges apparatuses began to suck in his very essence. Like a swarm of Mosquitoes they began to suck the very lifeforce from the god, more and more shuttles joining them from their motherships. The process was taking it's time, but slowly and surely the god was beginning to fade.

Someone should do something.

Somebody? That's your cue.

Also, if Sapt Golgo doesn't pay attention to mortals/lesser divines, why help Udil in the first place?

Mutare for being an arrogant douche who thinks he can do what he likes...

This sounds a lot like Udil-Volondor, right now.

Gods get like that. It's mainly due to Sapt Golgo's protection that he's still alive, else I would've spitted him.
She really doesn't have a reason to mantain that now that he's not an agent of change but rather the head of the new order - that will last forever. I remember Golgo hating that concept.

Yeaaaah... the Spider doesn't really pay attention to the younger gods unless they appear to threaten the universe's stability. You could just try talking to her.

Corvus? That's your cue.

Not really Vgray. Even I admit that. He's not that sympathetic as a viewpoint character. He's probably be viewed at best as a Byronic hero/hurting hero, by most as a flawed but good intentioned person who's troubled, at worst as a demonic figure of cowardice and paranoia.

Just as Az-SHo could be viewed at best as a caring father figure who wanted to protect his children and was struck down by a trusted ally, at worst a greedy bastard who was consumed with rage and was only put down before he caused greater destruction.

Don't forget Sabt Golgo how? She'd just hang in the background, being all mysterious and shit. Maybe eating everyone in the sequel, perfect ally betrayal.

I don't think this would make a very good series. There's really no-one sympathetic and interesting enough (well, Gren is getting shit done now) to act as a protagonist, and Udil would be too much of a Villain Protagonist. Udil would be a good player character for a God of War type of game, though, atleast pre-godhood.

True, although the plot would be at least somewhat balanced toward Neyravah because They never actually did anything malavolent toward Udil.

Well, Gren could act as the protagonist. He's the nicest character, even more than Feros and pre-Az-Sho slaying Corvus. And in a crapsack world like this, that is not a hard thing to do.

I appear to have become some sort of symbol of downfall or something.

But I am pure and good! Do you not see my attempts at creating elemental healers!

And I am not evil! I love kittens!

In all seriousness, the only scrappies I think would exist are Mutare, Vanida and Aodun.
Mutare for being an arrogant douche who thinks he can do what he likes, Vanida for being a screechy hypocritical bitch, and Aodun for being a god eating Marty Stu.
Udil would be a base breaker.

Again, theoretical fandom response. Those three are character archetypes who I've seen scrappified a lot. My opinion has no draw on this.

That does seem to be how the fanbase would go.
And everyone forgets about Un'girlan until he breaks out, causing widespread accusations of 'where did this guy come from', 'I've never heard of him', and 'Deus Ex Machina'.
