I call it being unappreciative. I had a cooler opening for the Agni'Vohda. :D
That said, it did get me away from the others so I could do what I've been promising to do for some time now. Aldii, I'm ascending you at the moment. Welcome to the game!

Hey Toph, I think it'd be a good time for you to clear Order to self-ascend. It'll bring more things into motion to get things rolling and far more relevant is that Leaf is trying to set order to things and it doesn't make much sense for it to happen with the representative of Order to be present. He might have a few things to saw about the administration of his domain after all.
Seems like it could just be an act of reality bringing into being a lord of creation to rule over the concept. Some light displays in the barren sky, some special effects, and a new gods rises from the barren ground to greet the world and assume his duties.

We are about to get to the 'ordering' part of things. Sounds good. Start playing, O head admin!

Ok guys, hear me out, now what if I ascended like this, so Leaf just "killed" Zebus. However what if that triggered some effect in the plane he made which leads to my rise, very general over view but what do you think?

Thanks for permissions. I'm starting with Agni seeing as I like the concept and given that's he just a mask, it should be a simple one to get me back into drawing and shouldn't take *That* long. After that I'll probably be doing my own god, then who knows? :D I have no objections...
Good luck with Umbra.
Right now, with no description I'd probably draw Umbra using Nocturne from League Of Legends as a guideline, adding some elements of abberant and lovecraftian horror.
I'd then make a Demotivational with the caption:
DARK CTHULU
Sh*t just hit the fan.

I didn't kill myself! Leaf's Angel's did! As I'm pretty certain that I could have held them off for an eternity, I felt that that was an appropriate time to teach Leaf a lesson in humility and show everyone what forced death really is! On that note, I should return to full form in about a hundred years or so. I currently sit formless in the barren twisting nether.
Sorry toph, but you were just a few seconds shy.
It should be curious to see how everyone and everything reacts with no "death" around. At least for now......

@Joran, that sounds like you are spliting hairs. That's my job! Generally speaking, if you let yourself be killed when you could have very easily prevented it, that's the same as killing yourself. We just call that suicide. That said, it'd be cool if Zebus now particularly favors suicides, and that the most devote worshippers of him kill themselves in immitation.
But as for seeing how things act without death...
@Shadow, would I be correct in assuming that you are not playing a chaotically aligned god of order? Both Joran and Pen have expressed interest in their characters resolving the conflict between life and death through future interactions. Unless Leaf rejects the god of order (seems unlikely, unless your god is chaotic, given that I've noticed he's been swearing by order for a while, now), he'll have to accept your new natural order, and that will be the end of it. As a reader, at least, that'd be a really unsatisfying end, since its basically a bad case of deus ex machina. And given Joran's and Pen's various statements, I'd assume at least a little unsatisfying for them, too (though you two, please let me know if I'm wrong in that).

@ Thought: Who cares? He's still dead. @ Joran: Still not cool. I SAVED you  @ Rimmon: Alternate idea. I have no idea what Joran has planned for Zebus, but presumably Joran hasn't just quit the game. (right, Joran?) This means that in some way, shape or form, Death must return to "Life." If the God of Death was actually a Zombie (aka, raised back to 'life' by you), that would be... deliciously interesting. Why don't you and Joran shoot each other a few PMs about it and see if you can come up with anything. Regardless, I think the transition of Death to Life is an excellent place for you to enter, however that happens. @James. Awesome Looking forward to it. You probably *should* spend some AP (1) on those Halls of Creation. Its a Named Location in the world, and we usually cement that name and its meaning with a small command action. The writing and decoration are free, of course. I love the idea, and can just imagine brave adventurers stumbling upon it by accident. Also, see below @EVERYONE: Please recall that we reset our AP every week. Typically, we do this sometime on Sunday (usually early afternoon). Shadow and Aldii, as you just got ascended, we'll not reset your AP this week, as that would be cruel. Crimson and Forgotten, we'll give you a choice. If you spend your AP before we reset, we'll reset you. If you don't... we won't, and what you have will carry over until next week's reset. Joran, Pen, James and Myself: No excuses. Get that AP spent!

I haven't 'ended' the conflict. My own creations follow normal rules. This doesn't apply to anybody elses. I'm just picking a side unintentionally as I'm born.

All starting AP is spent and logged!
And I have not quit! While all appearances are there, and I look "dead". Do not forget that I have already created an "after-life" plane, and that is where I went. It may take some time for my body to reform, Zebus will return. After a time.
Yes, Agni and Pruinus both had excellent intentions and worked well to stop the tide. Zebus himself could have easily wiped them out himself without even breaking a sweat. That isn't why he did what he did though. He wanted to teach everyone what death was and about. It was about loss. The end of one for others to come after, but that lesson appeared lost on Leaf. It was also to completely remove purpose from Leaf's angels. What are they going to do now, now that the Deathlord is gone? What is their purpose? What are they protecting life from? From dying? Leaf already decreed that life is neverending. So nothing will die. Agni and Pruinus have seen what can happen and felt loss. So, while Zebus is "dead" its really a whole lot harder to kill the deathlord than that.
And Thought, its not suicide, its martyrdom. Remember: He was murdered by others, he didn't kill himself.
