Why 12 arms?
Because the more arms we have, the more flamethrowers and things we can stick on it.

And the more flamethrowers and things we can stick on it, the more dwarven.

I'm having trouble imagining more than 6, maybe 8 arms fitting on someone. Unless our torso looks like an armtree.

It doesn't matter if our host dies.  The orc god has had her hosts die multiple times without any apparent effect.  It's just a fun way of directly crushing opposition and talking with people who aren't our followers without using mana.

Also now that I think about it, I'd prefer a plant based avatar that can grow extra vine arms at will and breath out infectious spores.

Avatar =
1) Limiting own mobility
2) Making ourself visible for other gods targeting ( we don't now what happens with the god when host is killed, that may be an injure)
3) Wasting mana

Our avatar should look like a normal old man, maybe hunched over with a cane and long beard. Big bushy eyebrows, the whole deal. We don't need extra flamethrowers because we're a god and can just do the same thing without even needing to move an arm. And talking to a old smiling grandpa would be a hell of a lot less terrifying than trying to talk with a giant 12 armed golem that would make Lovecraft shit his pants.

It could also serve as a nice disguise, if the other gods don't have some means of sensing our soul walking in their territory. A old hermit wandering into town isn't a big deal, until he goes nuclear, and by then it's too late.

As for limiting mobility, presumably we wouldn't even need to go wholesale into him. Just a fraction of our consciousness could reasonably mimic a human, hell computers nowadays can seem to be sentient easy, and we're GOD.

10 arms then mentally add two more. We should aim for 6 at most.
