((Wait, so am I in?))

"How cute. Little tiny life forms, just ripe for hate."

Find the onion planet, and quietly influence one type of water animal to HATEEEEE. Make them hate the others, so they try to kill them on sight. Whenever they kill something, they sacrifice half of it to me.

((Three wolves now. Yay!))

Populate Sarcar with earthlike flora and fauna of various sizes. ((Basically multiple of the same "species" but scale varies from tiny to gigantic.))

((how much time do we have to get a foothold and stay in the game?))
It's somewhat more competitive than based on a set limit, but not long. If you manage to go a few turns with nothing to show for it, your powers will start diminishing; even if everybody's in the same boat as you, that'll make recovering and beating everyone else painful and hilarious.

Yup, five, I didn't count player gamer, but which one is in?
((Pick one and stick with it, I guess.))
Quite.

((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.))
Too many actions. You were trying to do like five things at once, and I usually only let like three simultaneous actions slide. :P

Really though the planet + humanoids part was what killed it. Well, fused it into something else, anyway.

((Wait, so am I in?))
Yes. At least for the moment.

Turn 17: Horrible Screams


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

Locate a set 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.
Help Harry out with that sentience thing, but try to find something small and relatively basic.
[6][1+2] You find a quick, cunning eel-like creature and warp them into being solitary and paranoid. You also increase their intelligence, though they're still not the sharpest tools in the shed.


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

Don't assist in creation, but have one of the creatures unzip their full-body costume, revealing an avatar of mine.
[1] "KAWAAAAAAIIIIIIIDESUNE~?" it cries, unzipping itself into... Zekira?! THE ARCHDEMON OF OMENS JUST USURPED THE ARCHDEMON OF SURPRISE WITHOUT WARNING?! That's cheating! That's so blatantly cheating!

Now the three-legged toucan-thing is dancing around like she owns the place.


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.))
[6] You create towering chaos lords, vaguely resembling steep piles of cute little girl heads complete with brightly multicolored hair. Even in their normal form, their eyes and mouths shift between being eyes, mouths, and tentacle follicles, with further tentacles slithering out from in between the sections. However, they shift and warp constantly, ranging from puddles of quicksilver to translucent clockwork golems. Their behavior is similarly unpredictable and bizarre, though defaults to hugging things and singing.


"Damn. Well, I suppose I could try one more time."

Interplanetary Wind Tunnel, second attempt.
[5] You create a sturdy but varying wind tunnel between Burrito and the slimeship. Air creatures find it long and of variable difficulty to navigate, but a path nonetheless.


((Wait, so am I in?))

"How cute. Little tiny life forms, just ripe for hate."

Find the onion planet, and quietly influence one type of water animal to HATEEEEE. Make them hate the others, so they try to kill them on sight. Whenever they kill something, they sacrifice half of it to me.

[3][2] You make a type of feathered crab-like things belligerent.


((Three wolves now. Yay!))

Populate Sarcar with earthlike flora and fauna of various sizes. ((Basically multiple of the same "species" but scale varies from tiny to gigantic.))
[3] You add some shaggy forest life that varies wildly in size based on nutrition and parent size.

[2]Odura creates some very large fuzzy mounds pretending to be animals. They snuffle and shuffle about, but otherwise aren't very noteworthy.

[1] Sharkon's howls go horribly wrong, bringing forth massive twisted drakes, unnaturally thin and dark. They burrow deep into Sarcar's bony ground, scheming and whispering amongst themselves.


Gaze upon the majestic slimes some more. Try and see if they die of natural causes.
[2] Well they're too boring to get themselves killed, that's for sure.


Create a metal planet in the shape of a starship.
[2] You create a flat brass ring. It's very large.


[2-1] The crab can't seem to catch a break, and transforms itself into an artifact to enhance the polar bear's swag.

[2] An infinitesimally small golden crescent appears between two of the Golden Emperor's fingers, about the size of a mortal's ring. When held by a mortal, it magnifies the memories that mortal has of whatever it likes.

He continues lamenting and bemoaning all throughout this process, naturally.

Send powerful artifacts near the eel creatures that have several images of me destroying civilizations and driving them insane.

The first one to find one of these artifacts get's turned into a prophet with a portion of my power.

"There we go. Now why don't you guys go check out that ship."

Convince the Gassians to go check out the slimeship.

"Oh, a bit mean to make them like that, I'll just make another one myself."
Just make a small planet with the normal method, with some dirt on the top layer, some lakes about the place, rocks and other metals spread within and heated by a small, shining ball of flame in the middle, with some nice tough, colourful fungus that grows as a sort of grass.
"Anyone want to help?"

To Zekira: "Lass, doing that is my thing, not yours. You're not even doing it right. Quit it."

To others: "I am Caidutya, by the way. Would anyone like some cake?"

Procure a transparent box with a cake in it. The cake and the box are completely normal, but the box is also filled with capsaicin aerosol.

I'd allow this for specific cases, hiding things inside mystery boxes with explicit purpose and so on, but I'd rather avoid the added complexity just for making sure everything you do is in some way a surprise. If you've got specific examples I could comment on those.

((I fully expect lategame for there to be like twenty or thirty wolf deities all off doing random shit cause that ish what wolf deities do.))
I should just give up and make this a suggestion game now.

You are a gaggle of wolf deities. Normally a collection of wolves is called a pack but seriously have you seen how many godsdamned wolves there are in here? This is what happens when one group of immortals breeds and the rest don't.

See if Zekira's open to a bit of breeding. Not, you know, actual breeding, but the godly sort. The kind where children crawl out of people's ears or elbows. They could be both watery and ominous!

If not, and I totally would respect why somebody would not want to breed with a guy in an otter costume they just met, return to Purple. See if I can form shining domes and caves of ice.
