((You could try mucking with everyone else's stuff, but that would probably too stereotypical of Chaos. Not to mention annoying. You might try creating random lumps on the spheres. I'm not sure. Chaotic is a tough one.))

((Yeah, I know. Chaos is very tough to not do stereotypical things with... Because that's basically all you've got. Unless I can work with Firak to make shoggoths?))

[~Neri]

((I'm all for that. You could also warp space, make rifts randomly. Chaotic magical storms on a planet?))

[Lyeos]

((Damn right! Storm of Vengeance, Rift of Ruin, here I come!))
((Assuming I'm allowed to do so.))

"Good, be careful not to trip. By the way, I may have need of your help in the future, if you would be willing?

Enkisar, brother earth, might I have your assistance for a moment? I require a planet"

Mort extend one his front legs towards an empty space in the cosmos

Create a planet. Get help from enkisar if possible. Make it so that the core is a void which attracts and stores the essence of all organisms that die in this universe.

((It's not, but I'm hitting a brick wall when it comes to things [that I'm able] to do. Other than pushing things into each other, which, really, I dunno how chaotic that would be. I mean, the earth orb needs to be bigger before I push it into the water orb, but that'll make a planet. If I push it towards the sun, it'll orbit it. Seems kinda more like "order" or "nothing at all" to me.))

Well, there's one issue.

You probably don't want to start with "What can I do?" because that's boring. If you start as Fire and ask yourself that, you'll come up with "create fire." Great. So now you're Fire so you're creating fire. Very stereotypical.

Instead, try asking yourself what you want to do. Obviously what you're able to do becomes relevant to that at some point, but you can get a lot more mileage out of saying "I want worshipers!" or "I wanna make a planet!" and then asking yourself how your skillset could be used to get there than you are looking at what buttons you have so you can press them. That's one reason I'm so concerned about making sure the Aspects are interesting characters- it makes it more likely that they'll have ambitions beyond "create a lot of my element in places."

So, what do you want to do?

[Lyeos]

((I do want to make a planet, though! That'll get the ball rolling for possible later stuff!... Gods. Pushing is my greatest ally right now. I know what to do next turn, though I'll need Worldmaster's help making that ball larger..))

"Two-headed one! Make your orb larger!"

[IronyOwl]

Create a planet. Get help from enkisar if possible. Just a ball of earth for now.

Perhaps this isn't clear, but you can't assist with a creation without adding anything to it. Even if he helps you, there's no way for the Aspect of Death to help create a planet of simple dirt.

Break the glass orb.
Let's see what this does...

In addition to this, Enkisar grants Mort's request and helps him make a sphere of earth for his experiments.
I see no harm in your plea. I will assist you.
((My power seems to be in high demand, at least for the early game.))
((Cancel my before stated action. Only work on the new planet.))

[Pancaek]

((Would making it a planet covered in a miasma of disease be acceptable?))

[~Neri]

((Would making it a planet covered in a miasma of disease be acceptable?))

((Planet of Undeath? Just a giant flesh abomination maybe?))

You only get one action per turn.

And yeah, that's kind of to be expected. Though why it took until Turn 5 for anyone to actually ask about it is another matter...

((Would making it a planet covered in a miasma of disease be acceptable?))

No, because that'd just be an earth planet with disease frosting. The whole thing's gotta be a Deathbake to work, or at least swirled with Death, having a substantial Deathy crust, or in some other way being "made by" rather than just "decorated."

And also because it might be a bit tricky to have just disease with nothing alive for it to infest except each other, though I'm sure there are ways around that.

[Lyeos]

((This gives me an idea... I'm totally going to push granting mortals a portion of our power later. Magic ftw. Now, to convince everyone else to agree.))

[~Neri]

((I'm all for magic granting.))

[Pancaek]

((Would making it a planet covered in a miasma of disease be acceptable?))

((Planet of Undeath? Just a giant flesh abomination maybe?))

(( Something like that. I'm basically going personal worshippers, to do my dirty work when I can't get personally involved))

And also because it might be a bit tricky to have just disease with nothing alive for it to infest except each other, though I'm sure there are ways around that.

((Right, so, what can I do then? Because it slightly seems like I can't do anything until Life does something first. Can I make it so that the essence of organisms that die get sucked into the core of this planet? That would work well towards my idea for the thing.))
