Who What Now posted:It's nice to see Cio without a perpetual scowl on her face. In fairness, this has been a very bad day for her. Or series of days? Things were not going Cio's way, is what I am trying to say.

I traveled for forty days and forty one nights across the Abyssal Desert. I suffered through numerous glass storms, battled the raiders who live within, suffering from the poor footing the former seabed provided until I reached what I thought would be the source of my enlightenment There it stood in massive letters, each one carved and decorated with the resources of an entire world, engraved with runes that set it perpetually ablaze. It read HERE LIES BEAVIS. HE NEVER SCORED. Around it, nothing else of note remained.

i mean if you assume it takes a month and a half to personally supervise denuding a world that still leaves everyone else a demiurge-free interval longer than human history

I mean with the resources of a million other worlds she could do it, but I can easily imagine her looking at the nukes and tanks and going like pffffffffuck it I'll conquer it later.

There's advanced technology in the multiverse, the Demiurges just keep it to themselves. It would all be reduced to ash in a single searing moment of godly regard anyway.

Maybe we can hold out until we can conquer other systems and then nuke the gently caress out of Earth, where the portal would presumably open.

Tollymain posted:i wonder how unique earth is in its unconquered state? Depends on whether there are 777777 worlds or 777777 universes. If it's the latter, then the answer is likely to be "not even a little bit unique". Universes are big. Heck, even if it's the former I'd expect there to be a fair few left. The demiurges' pact means they don't have to defend their worlds from each other, so there's no reason to be proactive about conquering and setting up defences in every world they own.

As many humans have noted in the past, what's the point of being unimaginably rich and powerful if you can't lord it over anyone? (Player of Games probably still my all time favourite fiction)

A.o.D. posted:And yet hoverboards are a thing. Who is to say the other universes are like ours? Maybe Earth's god was a long-winded gently caress and that's why it took billions of years for Humans to show up in a big empty space. Other creator gods could have been fine with dry land rising from the primordial waters of chaos in seven days.

the demiurges don't seem real keen on innovation or long-term investment so I could totally see them, like, sacking Earth or whatever the first planet in teleport range is called in each universe and not bothering try to get to the rest I mean that's still an effectively infinite amount of resources especially when the whole point is just to keep one jumped-up feudal autocrat in impossible luxury A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 23:47 on Jan 14, 2016 |

I don't think you can kill a demiurge with a nuke. Might mess up their hair and just make them even crueler when they snap their fingers and the entire combined armies of earth explode because gently caress you, magic.

i'd like to think that a nuke is a fair match for most of the more powerful things in the multiverse just not, well, the usurpers of the gods

You can't take them into the void without vast expenditures of magic or attention, so it's muscle power all the way. Luckily there are servant races that exist for this specific purpose.

Mottom's guys literally walk around with platters on their heads, so she can eat whatever she wants on a moment's notice. There's decadence, and then there's dedication.

Memory foam is more comfortable to sleep on than a pile of gold, sure, but does it give you the same sense of unparalleled superiority? I think not. Gotta get your priorities straight dude.

This conversation gets me thinking. There's no way that Mottom actually ate all of the fruit on that world. She's just one person. She went out of her way to make it extinct because denuding entire planets is what god kings are supposed to do.

Either that or various minions pillaged the poo poo out of the planet on their own initiative in a race to get their hands on a commodity known to be valued by an all powerful god king. The Invisible Hand strikes again.
