The sword was always able to pass through the bubble. Only Roy and his arms can't.

Lets use the ancient naval art of training war parrots. No one will realize they have been boarded by space war parrots until it is to late!

You can fake being able to run on water. You can't fake looking cool when you break your foot on a door and hit your head on the floor.

I use my homebrew anti-caster swordstrike by throwing my sword!
Curse my lousy DEX, I knew I should have dropped INT instead...

This'd be an interesting time to see the fiends possess V just to keep the world running for their own evil schemes, but V can't cast teleport and is therefore useless here. If I had to guess, the priest in question will consider votes from those dwarves compromised since they're enslaved by mind controlling magic, but that might be entirely too logical.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Yeah that seems like a massive anticlimax.  The tensions so high right now, something big has to happen.
(Also technically it's the demigod making a decision, not the priest.  So Elan casting charm on the priest or something wouldn't work.)

I have no idea how, but I think this must involve Durkon saving the day.  Maybe through trickery, somehow.

I'd bet on this. He's already figured out how to deceive the vamp spirit because the vamp spirit cannot understand the meaning or connection of most of Durkon's memories.


As for the vote, the demigod - a former dwarf king that achieved semi-divinity - apparently polls the dwarf clan leaders to make that his vote. However, that demigod should damn well know that his race is doomed to Hel's domain if he votes yes, and the vote should still ultimately rest with him.

He explicitly knows, but he considers himself bound to follow the will of the council.  Lawful and stuff.
... Of course, if he can be convinced that the council was manipulated, I think he'd be free to at least abstain.  I don't know how to make a proper climax of that though.

The tiebreakers' tiebreakers' tiebreaker is a flipped coin. The gods leave it up to the gods to decide what happens.

Then the coin lands on it's rim and all the gods start fighting again.
And then the Snarl eats everything.

Maybe Elan can petition the High Priest of Odin to let Banjo into the pantheon again and then vote against destroying the world.

I don't think Banjo was allowed as an official god by any of the pantheons, or would that not matter?

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.
