Destroy the World
« on: March 25, 2013, 08:56:40 pm »

Your goal is, simply put, to kill everything. How you do this is completely up to you. In order to do this, though, you must first actually exist. As such, you will need an avatar through which to kill things. Please use the following template to create your own personal reincarnation of Death.
Name:
Gender:
Occupation:
Financial Status:
Location:

You are the God of Death, watching over the human race, and waiting for them to finally wither away so you can consume them. This, of course, gets quite boring quite fast, because humans are notoriuosly slow diers. Wanting to speed up this process, you decided to create an avatar of yourself to cause more death. Ultimately, you want to stick it to the God of Life and just end up killing everything. But that's long term. First off, you're gonna need some supplies, as well as actually making your avatar.

Is this going to be just a single character?
Or an Avatar and some Human minions or what?

Single-character suggestion game. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. You can get human minions if you want, though.

Hm...shall we start planning?

Firstly, how much divine power do we have and what's our timeframe? If we've got at least a little divine power and enough time, we could just provide a little, constant push on the Earth to nudge it slowly out of the Goldilocks zone.

Well my initial plan is just a kind of dry run, I'm going to use a police uniform, walk into gang territory and shoot a few of them.
Gangwar on the police kicks off and we get a nice power boost for doing a good job, I hope.

Being a god that focuses solely on death, you don't really have that much of an effect on the world of the living. You can perform minor things, or very rarely, something major. A minor action constitutes things such as changing the attitude of a guard slightly, or making your avatar slightly stronger. These are quite taxing, so you can't do them often. Major actions are things such as cause a spontaneus explosion, or create a meteor. These can only really happen in the event that you kill a large amount of people at once without the aid of a major miracle (Anti-miracle?). You can get enough power to perform a minor miracle about once a weak if not very many people die, and for a major miracle, the average death rate equals to about a millenium of charging, with no miracles or avatars being made. As for time frame, it's about the magically-enhanced lifespan of a human, about 120 years.

Can I influence a large crowd of people very slightly, just to push them to do something they already want to do?

I have a plan.

If you do it persuasively enough, then yes. Also, could you guys please post some avatars? Unless everyone wants the one that's been posted, that is. Sorry for the absence, life was busy.

I'll post an avatar sheet after an hour. I have to do something. Does the avatar have to look human? Can he have six fingers or a third eye or something? By the way, what time period are we in? Can we time-travel?

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

You can have deformations, though expect it to bring suspicion. This is modern-era, and outside of the ability to slightly alter things, you are slightly stronger regular human.

Since no other things have been voted on, you will be taking the role of Poppy Summers.

Walking around the nursing home that you've been put in to, you're grumbling quitely to yourself about the nursing staff and how they've got these ridiculous "no-tolorance" rules on psychadelic mushrooms. "Those nursing staff... Oh, one of these days I'm gonna kill one o' them. Maybe a few more. Hell, why not all of them? I'd say there can't be TOO much harm in it, can there?"
It's at this point that you decide she's as good as you're gonna get. Besides, humor's always good, and what's funnier than an old, forgetful lady beating a world to death?
"Why yes... That's a good idea. I-I think I'll do it. Let's see. I'll need some supplies, maybe a knife, some big bandaids to stop all of the blood. Ooh, and a place to put the bodies, that's one." Slowly, you formulate a plan.

The question is, just what IS this plan?
