SWORD OF SMATTAS. CAN YOU NOT HEAR A WORLD CRY OUT FOR JUSTICE? WHEN WILL YOU DELIVER IT?
Yam Slacker
Emptiness. All is formless and void, a blank slate of a world against the infinite darkness beyond. Nothing truly exists, yet, except for little sparks of ego and will, entities capable of shaping what shall come to pass.

Which shall prevail? Which shall make their mark upon reality? Which shall burn out and be forgotten?

What do you choose to do, Godlet?


*****

The Current Pantheon, in order of Seating:

1. The Pantocrater- SwedishThaumocracy
2. The Illuminator - DivineCoffeeBinge
3. The Constellator - Scribbleykins
4. The Arborean - Kyyp
5. The First Sea Lord - Deadmeat5150
6. The God of Lazy - TacoNight
7. The Fulmillustrator - TheNabster
8. The Refugitive - Shogeton
9. Vacant
10. The Drunk of Goddenness - Blasphemaster
11. The Stuffmeister - Battle Royale Baby
12. The Comedienne - JesterofAmerica

The Placeholderdome of Thunder is established! If an action is contested, both sides roll 1d20 and add their Divinity. They may try to invoke statuses as a bonus for their own or a malus for their opponent, but need to give reasons why in either case. Ganging up is allowed: total the divinity on each side, the instigator or first defender makes the roll for their whole side. The winner takes half the loser's divinity, rounded up. If multiple winners the divinity is split evenly with the instigator or first defender getting any remainder. A godlet with less than 5 Divinity loses their seat in the Pantheon, which may be taken by the victor, unless that victor has less than 5 divinity after winning.

So, in the all-pervading light, a world was called into being, a solid, featureless globe, indistinguishable from the brightness of everything and everywhere. That featureless surface was quickly submerged as water was brought to existence, a liquid coating sufficient to cover the solidity below. All around the new world, far, far away, fusion reactors flicked into being, adding hue and radiance to the everywhere-light as they began their existence. Between them, strange pockets of 'stuff' materialised, their purpose uncertain.

Create a moon in the shape of a duck in orbit around the world.

Why? Because what is the point of divine power if you can't use it in arbitrary, inscrutable ways? Making a duck shaped moon is suitably arbitrary and ridiculous. It should be a perfect representation of a duck but made of non-metamorphic rock and perfectly sculpted, down to the smallest(giant) detail on its feathers and so on.

Yam Slacker
The featureless deeps beneath the water corrugated and roiled, twisted, buckled and drove themselves upwards. Peaks broke through the surface of the waters, becoming islands, archipelagos,steep-sided land masses. All over the constantly-bright world, a chaotic pattern of upraised terrain spread outwards and around. At the poles, however, the waters cooled, forming giant chunks of ice floating in the pure water, drifting on currents and eddies caused by the upraising of the mountains. On the surface below the deeps, a trench vaguely suggestive of genitive organs furrowed its way into being around the world.

One lone Godlet zoomed down to the mountainous surface, planting itself upon the ground, the first entity ever to do so. In its wake, the first 'mews' of life, as the Firstborn chosen of the Gods stepped onto the rocky landscape, looked around disinterestedly, then cleaned the interstices between the claws of their forepaws or otherwise busied themselves sleeping or looking for something to eat.

Up in orbit, a pair of rocks came into being, one the shape and size of a cat, the other the shape and size of a duck, save for the giant detailing of its feathers. They took up antipodal positions in the same orbit, invisible against the constant light of everywhere.

In the vasty deeps of infinity, the clusters of Stuff began to grow.

Back upon the planet, there was a deep rumbling within the homogeneous ground. Geysers began to erupt, as from deep within, the elements of the four humours - blood, yellow bile, black bile and phlegm - were called into being. The cats eagerly flocked to the bloodgeysers, murring cheerfully as they drank their fill, aside from a few who approached, sniffed it, then turned away in aloof high dudgeon, demanding better fare.

Upon the highest peak, the veritable ceiling of the world, one lone cat watched a godlet create a rudimentary weather system.

One lone godlet pulled power to itself, and claimed a place in opposition to all the others. The first seat in the pantheon had been claimed.

And Lo, the Duck Moon did Quack and there was a Great Rumbling upon the Deep, heard all, even unto the Very Firmament and thus was declared,

"All That Flaps or Sqwaks,
All That Pecks or Chirps,
All That Soars or Glides,

ALL THESE THINGS ARE MINE!
I AM DIOGENES LORD OF FEATHERS!
LOOK UPON MY WORKS YE MIGHTY AND DESPAIR!"


Translation: Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack!

I attempt to claim exclusive jurisdiction over everything related to birds, thus gaining tremendous power in such matters but forever excluding all actions not related to birds or bird-characteristics in some way. Not unlike a variation of the adversary.
