Aspect:Archdemon
As I understand it, even Archdemons have aspects, they just are more freeform about them. That is, unless you truly mean to be the Archdemon of Archdemons.

Okay,I'll edit it.

Turn 16: Unexpected


"Oh, right! The Golden Emperor! I do believe I can help him out with something."

Using flows of water, coordinate the varied songs of the marine life into a unified watery symphony that may take on a life of its own!
[4] You coordinate the life on the onion planet into a glorious symphony.

[1] "Dreadful, dreadful! Simply won't do, slaughter them all," the Golden Emperor says, waving a hand at you while looking disdainfully in another direction.


Time to get cracking.

Make a new planet that quickly shifts it's shape and environment every three of it's years, roughly equivalent to twenty of our Aspect minutes. To make it more entertaining, toss in some humanoid lifeforms that struggle to adapt to the changes, to the point of only just managing to adapt right before it switches. Make them move and grow at the appropriate rate for their three years, which would be roguhly the same amount as three Earth years - whatever that is. As an added bonus, give them conflicting and ridiculous beliefs on the proper types of headwear, guaranteeing them that it's so important that they have to go to war over it to further ensure they won't be able to use resources working to create stable, artificial environments to live in. Make their leaders dwarves raving lunatics and call it a day.
[3] You create a freefloating moon of stretchy, shifting flesh, complete with moaning mouths and eyes.


((Firak has no qualms about that kind of "play."))

Firak cuddles back and just goes along with whatever Odura has in mind
[4][6] Odura whelps Sharkon, wolf-god of primeval life. He looks enormous and ancient, as if composed of twisting branches, clinging moss, and cracked stone.

[6] Sharkon howls mammoth trees into existence, but they come out looking more like skyscrapers than trees.


"Do not fear me, my children. I am your Father, and I shall protect you. In fact, I will grab you the ability to explore more of this universe."

Make paths/tunnels of wind and gas between the Gassian planet (which I will call Burrito) and the ship. Encourage the Gassians to explore.
[2] You scatter gasses between the two.


"Oh deary me, these little ones are just adorable. Hey, golden whatever, you should watch these delightful little creatures if you want to be entertained."

Tell the golden emperor that these slimes are rather entertaining. Keep observing the slimes for a little while, then inspect the rest of the ship they are on
[4] "Oh, so they are! Arm them."

[1] They're clearly engaged in a complex series of calculations, and not the aimless hopping of wild animals, as you had originally assumed.

[6] Fascinating. You're not sure what the underside is made of, exactly. Not quite metal, not exactly normal stone, though you think it's probably stone of some variety. Spiral patterns in it; this is very nice craftsmanship.


Create a moon made out of solid gold for the layer cake planet.
[2] Lumpy pyrite moon is go.


[1-1] The polar bear's hat sprouts legs, as the crab's attempts to free itself go ever further awry.


Four entities appear from the void, all vying with each other. There is room for but two of them here.


Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Archdemon done. If you're taking a new aspect of Order too, I could modify my application for Water a bit, without changing much of the main concept. Are you?
I actually kind of like the Broken Circle effect from having a nice sensible arrangement that's got all sorts of holes in it now.


Anyway, all four of our archdemon applicants are in, just not for long. Only the most successful two will get to stay, while the others will surely be sucked elsewhere or something by their lack of power.

"Oh no, that would be irresponsible. Let's do something else instead!"

Locate a set species of suitably mobile and intelligent creatures in the watery layers, and imbue their minds with the gift of sentience, so that the Archdemons may vie for them, creating demand for jobs and stimulating the planetary creation economy!

"Say, Archdemons! Come over here and help me make sentient life! You need something to fight for, right?"

Fine.

Gift the creatures with the concept of religion,sacrifice,and service,and imbue them with racial paranoia.

Uhhhh, irony, you do know that I have two of those characters, am I supposed to do both? You know just wondering.
Anyhow:

Octin after being forcibly Torn from the cloth of oblivion whirls around like a drunken merry go round to meet this new voice.
Octin:"really? Sure, I mean, I'm totally not startled by this mess around me."
Help Harry out with that sentience thing, but try to find something small and relatively basic.

"Perhaps."

Don't assist in creation, but have one of the creatures unzip their full-body costume, revealing an avatar of mine.

((Actually, I think only one of your proposed Archdemons is participating, since it really doesn't make sense that both would be. There were four applicants, and five Archdemons total - only one of yours presumably made it through.))

Eh. Put some shoggoths on it or something?

((For clarification, was that waaaay beyond what I had the ability to do, or just way too many actions? I wanted to test the limits and, maybe, create something interesting and a place to test out things in the future.))
