Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Mammon the guy in the anti-Jagganoth faction that's supposed to be their muscle?

So Mammon is only blind on the left side it seems

Pre-entombment Jadis was, at least. Right now, she's just above Mottom, I think, with Gog-Agog ranking third strongest (after Jaggy and pre-entombment Jadis).

I'm trying to find the post with the actual rankings but not having much luck, but while I don't remember where Gog-Agog actually is, apparently she could be the strongest if it weren't for her being so weird and crazy. Yes, even when you include Jagganoth apparently. Found the post for that one, despite that not being a fact I forgot, at least. I do remember that current Jagganoth rated above even pre-entombing Jadis, though I got the impression that Jagganoth's power surge came after her entombment, not before. I could be wrong there, though. And Mammon was the weakest and mostly relied on his size and such, which doesn't bode well for him here.

Okay, found the power rankings post (but not a link to it; I quoted it directly in one of my posts here and found that by searching through my thread post history):quote:Q: All all the demiurges (our great Red God excluded now and the Master key, of course) as powerful as each other? Is it all down to the keys in their foreheads, or does the individual its in determine the power they can wield? So, Solomon is stronger than Gog-Agog, at least with her being her weird self. But she still ranks third currently, fourth if you include old!Jadis, which is impressive. And/or reflects poorly on the others since an insane pile of worms that probably doesn't even give a gently caress is stronger than they are. Though it kind of makes sense, given that the bottom three are deteriorating to varyingly massive degrees, while Incubus stole his throne and is looked down upon by the others. Meanwhile in the top three we have an unstoppable monster, a prideful rear end in a top hat who is probably sure to keep himself in peak physical (and every other) form, and then the weirdness that is Gog-Agog. I kind of imagine a big power gulf in the rankings between her and Incubus.

I'm absolutely counting on Incubus as the final boss. Firstly, because he's clearly the one most directly interested in both stirring things up and hiding away from everyone else where he won't cross paths with Allison physically. Secondly, because he's just incredibly fun. Thirdly because he has the most direct engagement with Allison's emotional issues and internal conflict.

According to (apparently) Abaddon in a recent Discord discussion, Gog-Agog has a talk show, which can be viewed in every one of the 777,777 universes owned by the Demiurges.

Fits with this old post, though that's amazing and not what I expected based on it: quote:Q: Where do the likes of Gog-Agog and Incubus fall in style of governance, if Jadis is defined by a harsh theocratic order, Mottom and Mammon seem disposed (with some presumption on the latter's part) to be voraciously consumptive resource sponge mercantile empires, and Solomon David and Jaggonoth seem to be inferred to have brutal autocratic domains that build their vassals to a particular vision. More importantly, how close is Incubus' style of rule to that of Labyrinth's Goblin King?

The way Mammon's strength, or rather lack of, in comparison to his peers is described makes me think that while Grandpa Mammon with his regrets and fading mind is weaker than Mottom. The old Grand Dragon is not and the count being so interrupted is going to stir it to the surface.

The old Grand Dragon is not and the count being so interrupted is going to stir it to the surface. Yeah, I actually just came to a similar conclusion, though not quite the same one; when I first read the post I quoted above about power rankings and possibly due to other things I read, I got the impression that Mammon was the weakest and mostly relied on just being a gigantic monster in fights and such. Looking again though, it seems to be saying that he's only at the bottom because of things that'd be revealed later, which now seem to be his senility, guilt, and poor vision/blindness, and that he'd be much more powerful otherwise. I'm not expecting him to suddenly go into beast mode and wreck Mottom, though, as much as I'd like to see that happen. We'll see, I suppose. Edit: Tangent, on the topic of Mammon being old: quote:Q: Who are said to be the oldest and the youngest members of the Seven, respectively?

I always love fights where the solution is to hurl an improbably large, immobile object at it. Palaces, aircraft carriers, space stations, you name it.
