You Are a Minor God
« on: June 04, 2015, 11:32:44 pm »

Out the prayers of a small child you are blinked into existence. You are a personal god, what others call an "imaginary friend" or "guardian angel".

But you have much greater ambitions.

You are bound only by the four laws:

1. A=A; The law of equivalence: whatever is given must be taken (time is irrelevant to you)
2. A != 0; The law of existence: without belief you do not exist
3. A < R; The law of least resistance: if you bend reality too much, you will be destroyed
4. A∝ P: The law of faith: your limits are defined only by your believers

------------------------

This is a very simple god-game, the objective is become as powerful as possible without disappearing from disbelief or over extension of your powers. Actions are done through "miracle points". The more miraculous the action, the more MP is needed. The snag is, I won't tell you how many MP you have .

"Belief" restores your MP. "Belief" is gained many ways, I'll leave it to you to figure it out. The stronger the belief the more MP you get. Belief can only be obtained from sentient creatures and has no upper limit.

As you gain more MP you will grow more powerful and can do more reality-bending things, however you are confined by the above rules at all times. Time is no matter to you, so long as someone believes, but if your believers run out, you are destroyed.

Bending reality is a tricky business, if you bend it too much, it will break and so will you. Do not overextend your powers.

Now then minor god, what has your child-believer named you?

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

You are Fluffy, God of Killer Rabbits. Not the most dignified name, it doesn't inspire nobility or strike fear into the hearts of your enemies, but it's a start.

You arose when your believer, Eve, a girl of 7 years, prayed to her newly acquired bunny, for friends.

Totem Get! +1 Belief; New free Power = Possess Bunny: Allows you to posses the body of Eve's bunny, does not cost any MP..

Prayer Quest Get! Find Eve some new friends. Reward: Possible increase in Belief, possible new Belivers

1 MP Used. Speaking to the child's mind taxes your powers a little, but it is a child, and children are malleable.

Eve seems slightly surprised and opens the cage, taking you into her arms and stroking your forehead. You make a mental note to never mention this to anyone, when you become supreme God of the Universe.

This is embarseing.....but it feals so good........(this is our thoughts not speech)

snugle a bit, then gaze at the door, indicate we want to be taken outside with our paws.

-the plan-
1.kids drawn to Eve and pet bunny,
2.kids talk to Eve about bunny.
3.Use this interest to spark friendship.   
4.???
5.profit

Well I think the most efficient way of bending reality is by working on something that would happen anyway.
After doing the above action radiate a aura of adorableness. Not too much but enough to affect the psychically susceptible such a children.
