Do we even have any female deities? I probably should have payed* a bit more attention.

Also probably gonna add anomaly to my list of spheres.



*Internet Explorer does not recognize "payed" as a word.
Eh. There's probably some unlikely thing that can happen to turn the entire pantheon into females. Which will happen. Because I will it.
*voided*
Any attempt to void me will end with me floating back in.
Into what?

Why is the god of knowledge not a major god but that luck jackass is? "Did you hear, Frank learned to cure the plague yesterday. No big deal, right? Happens all the time. BUT I JUST FOUND THREE FUCKING CENTS! YOU KNOW HOW BIG THAT IS?!"

You may just as well ask why the God of Baked Goods and Cannibalism is in the Order of Seven. The answer is simple. They represent things that ancient people are more likely to value in a hostile world.

I just blame that on cheesecake being delicious. I'm going to put what counts as a heretic to me on a list so my cults will know who to let die by eating the poison mushroom and who to bake into a cake because I feel like a dick that day.

Feed... Must feed. Food... See food. Gods.... are food. EAT.

Be baked into trans-existence. Create prophesy of me eating all the gods in the end time.

((I won't kill you all this early, that would make me a prick. Just thought it fits my RP because I'm the god of canibbalism... and I'm a god you're all gods, so...))

((PS. You got something about me being in the Order of Seven? Huh? Punk?))

I wish I could unwatch a thread because every time I look at this I can feel myself dying faster
Dying of laughter?
Dying of pure unbridled hatred, actually.

No, actually I approve of you being in the... Order of the Seven? How cliche sound is that? I should start an uprising just for that. Order of the Seven.

Ah, presumably because the Great God of Luck provides enough luck for most - only adventurers and such require the extra little bit that E. Low provides, thus the cult is mostly composed of various people of the adventuring sort, of which there are assuredly not too many.

In the corner, a gambler yells, "Dave has been chosen to be sacrificed to Gamerlord!" A yelling Dave is hauled away to the twin temples of Gamelord and Player, then voices dropped to a low rumble. On the stage, the minstrel continues his story.

"Then Xavanos looked upon the briefcase, and he knew that there was another. Another was unnacceptable; another would create, undo the void! That must not happen, he decided, and charged towards the briefcase. Wolin was prepared for this. He was prepared for everything. He opened the briefcase, and from inside, three deities flew out. The first was Baldman, then god of curiosity. His first reaction was to look around. He saw Wwolin battling nothing as it tried to eat the briefcase. (6+1 vs. 6+2) The battle they began that day is still raging to this day. Wwolin creating worlds, and Xavannos detroying them. (4+1) But one world had already been prepared. Inside the briefcase was a world, meant to burn through the void like wildfire. And it did. When wwolin opened his briefcase, the world was flung into the mouth of Xavanos, and entered his stomach. (5+1) It burned the nothingness, putting Xavanos in constant pain. It was so hot that it was forced to remain lifeless and barren, but it drove the nothingness away from around it, meaning that the parts of worlds Xavanos consumed but survived long enough to be near the red world was safe, and eventually began to reform into worlds. Baldman watched, and followed, being ever curious. (3+1) and the nothingness did not affect him. Then the second briefcase god, Neyravah saw the red world glow from within the nothingness. It was lovely, it was perfect, it was barren. So Neyravah followed Baldman, (1+2) losing 48 of his 50 heads and wings to the nothingness, and watched as the world pieces formed, and decided to assist. (6+2) He created life, but it blossomed out of control, reached out into the nothingness and was consumed. And so Neyravah had to start over again. The third briefcase god was zanzetkuken, god of sanity and insanity. He immediately fled the battle area and tried to form a deal with Xavanos, offering to lose the original power of creation in exchange for not being devoured. Xavannos replied-"

Once again, a disturbance forced the minstrel to stop telling the story. THis time it was because of a loud explosion. "That must be the Cult of Juren and their cursed alchemy." A man cried. Then from outside came the dreaded words "FIRE! FIRE!" Most of the tavern's occupants fled, but a man waited. "I have never heard this story before, and I am the world's most knowledgable scholar. Keep telling it please."

The minstrel nodded, one hand pushing some brown hair that had fallen over his eye seemingly of it's own accord. "I have this tale from a good source. It is the truth." He said, racking his brains as to where he was in the story when he had stopped.

Baldman observed the worlds that were, and he was a tad bored. The red world burning at the center of it all, rocks flying all about. There was nothing here - not yet, anyway. The First Life had proven ultimately disappointing, and this place was known. So he turned to the void.

"Void-Father, allow me passage through your unbeing. I come not to conquer like the others, I wish only to know, not touch. Is this agreeable?"

Xavanos struggled against the being. So many worlds created! Such a violation of the void! And pain! Pain beyond any conception of it ripped through Xavanos, and the struggle continued for eternity.
Whispering voices began to talk to him in the dark, asking to be let in, promising to not create, merely alter and observe. He considered, and agreed.

Xavanos stretches it's cavernous jaws wide and inhales Baldman and Zanzetkuken, marking them with the Touch of the Void, ensuring they wouldn't be harmed by the nothingness.
He continues to devour and destroy the worlds created in an effort to bring back the void.
