"Fool, I may spread death however I wish. My blight is as much part of this creation as anything else. And equals? If you truly thought we were equals you would have had respect for my creation, instead of destroying such a large portion of it! Instead you simply did as you pleased, trampling over the collective work of no less than three aspects. How do you justify that?"

Oi water person, I'm with Mort on this, you are trashing things that aren't even your responsibility. As the aspect of life, it is My decision when Mort goes too far. It is My opinion that matters in this, not Yours. If anything, You crossed the line, back off our aspects, you have no power here, this is not a battle you can win. Mort's death planet is fine, same goes for his deathlings, I have been watching to make sure it doesn't get out of hand, remove your water from the planet and Kindly back off.

((It seems that if IronyOwl does develop Aspect PVP rules, Quinghai will probably lose. He'll have to fight Mort, Nohpalli, Firalk, and possibly Aquilos if the fight looks interesting enough compared to whatever else is happening.))

((Rassura will be joining in too. Intentionally messing up with things just because you dislike it without discussing it with the others is a no-no.))

((Assuming you can't do a godly action and fight at the same time, Enkisar will join as well since Rassura's assistance may be important to his creation.))

((Aw. I was hoping Quinghai would win against Mort in a one-on-one fight, banish him and thus, by right of combat, inherit the properties of the Aspect of Death while losing his old ones.))

((Well, of course you'd find it an unattractive prospect, considering that it ends badly for you, but I'm rather fond of ironic punishments. It was just an amusing thought I had, really.

Also, if ganging up on Quinghai does happen, count on Ken joining in for the sake of perceived truth, justice and solidarity.))

((Course it wouldn't be an ironic punishment, seeing as how Firak is in charge of judging Mort's creations. Firak finds the deathlings fascinating and is rather annoyed at Quinghai for hurting them.))

((I don't care. This game had promise, but no one's really doing anything. I'm bored.
Also, everyone seems convinced I drove the deathlings to extinction and destroyed the planet. I didn't. I gave it a big ocean, and there are still deathlings in it.))

Turn 10: Immortal Kombat


Stabilize my new volcanic world, removing excess mass by creating a deep, world-spanning labyrinth.
Rassura, I feel you may be helpful to me in this instance. Should you help me, I will surely repay my debt whenever you desire.
Rassura does her best to assist in creating this labyrinth, probably by making the passageways so utterly random and confusing that anything that got lost in them would go insane.
((Quoted assistance action before the actual action. Convenient!))

[2+1] You carve out a maze of confusing molten chasms.


"Well, that didn't work like I planned. And now I'm bored. Maybe I'll go make a planet." Aquilos mutters before moving off to an empty corner of the universe.

Create a huge gas giant, with a dense gas core and lighter atmosphere. Make the atmosphere turbulent and add one massive storm that moves around the planet.
[4] You create a huge gas giant with no solid materials at all, a turbulent outer atmosphere, and a single mobile storm of mammoth proportions.


"Gah, no, dammit, my nice hot rock! This is war now, Quinghai!"

Nohpalli channels his rage through the volcanoes on Ostrioth, causing them to release gasses and thick, water-evaporating land-forming lava.
[5] Lances of pure volcanic rage punch through the insulating water, raining down in clouds of gas and hardening stone. Ostrioth is still mostly seas, but with jagged, gas-shrouded volcanic islands leaking further vapors and heat.


Make Space Sharks and Space Carp! The Carp eat the Eels, the sharks eat the Carp And the Eels. Also they all photosynthesize, although the Carp are weaker at it then the Eels and the sharks are weaker at it then the Carp.

((I'm assuming that the space creatures are swimming in the winds of change.))

Carps and Sharks! Next will be Space Kraken(s?) and Whales!
[5] You create pretty carp and pretty sharks, in the same translucent style as the eels. They eat each other and photosynthesize to proportionate degrees.


"Well done, Mr. Vanhurk. That's a very nice lattice right there. But our work is far from done."

Bring the cloud over to the purple gas giant with the chalk core, and mix the two together. Variety is the spice of life!

"Well, that didn't work like I planned. And now I'm bored. Maybe I'll go make a planet." Aquilos mutters before moving off to an empty corner of the universe.

"Mr. Aquilos! Care to assist me on my project? Everyone's invited, and you can help however you like. End goal is technically variety and life, but I'm flexible on that front. Creative input is appreciated!"
[1] You hurl the lattice into the depths of the gas giant, coating its chalk core with the ice.


"What? You think you're justified in blighting the entire cosmos because someone dampened your blight to stop it from blighting the rest of the universe? Who do you think you are?"
I think he knows he's the Aspect of Death. As such, I believe he is justified in using his power however he sees fit.
"He may use his power over his own domain however he sees fit. When he is blighting the rest of Creation with his blight, there is a problem."

"What? You think you're justified in blighting the entire cosmos because someone dampened your blight to stop it from blighting the rest of the universe? Who do you think you are?"
"Do you even listen when your betters speak? The blight was contained to the planet itself, the effects it had on other planets was negligable. And I am justified in spreading blight wherever I please because I am death itself! Know your place, worm." 
"You may spread death naturally, but not unnaturally as the planet did! And how dare you claim to be better than I? We are equals, save morally. You have crossed a line for the last time, bug."

Time for the GM to figure out how Aspect-On-Aspect combat works, I guess?
((Attacking takes an action. I'll assume you want to fight rather than create.))

[2] vs [3] You gum ineffectually at him as he rapidly leg-slaps the general direction you're coming from.


POKE THE SPACE EELS!!!!!!!!!
[5] *Pooooooooooooooooooke*

They now like you and are curious what you are.


[3-1] A silvery long-legged crab appears near the edges of the wind surrounding the fire and air balls.

((An Aspect of Life should be aware that mass extinctions aren't so bad. They provide life an opportunity to change, and more importantly a promise of bouncing back pretty quickly. After all, some survived; it's obvious that the deathlings can survive the water, and they'll be increasing exponentially. And as I've stated, their natural habitat isn't destroyed. They lived in rock, there are still rocks.
And you have to consider the consequences. The planet was draining life from everything in the universe, regardless of who made it or if they wanted it drained for Mort's purposes; isn't that something worth reacting to?

And if you claim that the effect was highly limited in scope, why did no one bring this up before nothing short of a retcon could get us out? If that's how little any of you care about such things, and if you're nevertheless demonizing me for lacking knowledge I had no way to know until it was too late, I don't want to be in this game.))
