'cause everyone was pissed off with Stirk, apparently.

Makes sense. I was asking cause I feel like Isgon is going to become the god everyone hates again.

Depends what Isgon does.

Quick question. How bad are zombies?

Depends on the zombies.

If you're doing things passively for worship that don't really affect everyone else too much, there shouldn't be issues.

If you actively go after the other gods' creations for unpleasant things, there will be problems.

'cause everyone was pissed off with Stirk, apparently.

I thought it was because Stirk was waaaay too good at role-playing Fusil.

[tntey]

What was fusil like?

He was fun to play  .

Picture the most perfect thing you can think of. Then multiply the perfectness by 1000000^10000000000.

[piratejoe]

judging from what stirk said fusil was full of himself.

[Vgray]

What was fusil like?

Picture the most arrogant god in existence, who makes so many threats they start to lose their effect, who doesn't respect the power and standing of any divine being, considers them to be petty and evil beings who are a stain on his perfect Creation. Add a healthy splash of paranoia.

I never knew I wanted to have a god like that in ye gods so bad.

[Vgray]

I suspect Azem will annoy people. He's already annoyed Eid.

EDIT: I present to you, the collected best (or possibly worst) of Azem, in rough chronological order, starting from around tick 30.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

"*Yawns* Did I miss anything? I feel like I missed something important..."

"Fusil just declared war on Cim and he admitted to trying to kill him for a long time. I think we should take Fusil to trial since that breaks Part Two of Anath's Code of Conduct: 'Thou Shall Not Seek the Death of Another God.'"

"Oh. Again?"

"If we're going to do anything, then I suggest we seal away both of them. For their own safety and the safety of others of course."

Azem sighs.

"You seem to be missing one fundamental point young god. I don't care. I dislike both of them, and I will settle for only one of two things, either they are both gone, or they continue to balance each other out."

"Oh Void. Will all divinities please vote in a timely fashion? We might have one less annoying god to imprison if you don't."

"You broke council law. You attacked two gods. And you displayed appalling arrogance throughout the whole ordeal. Forgetting everything else, the simple fact of the matter is that we can't trust you any more than we can trust Cim or Yaos."

"Enough. Any god who remains sane, and wishes for us to not tear each other apart in a paranoid frenzy, raise your appendage."

Azem raises a claw.

"Their damnation will come regardless of my actions."

Azem vanishes in a flash of green.

"I am tired. I am tired of the arrogance and apathy of my fellow divinities. A curse on you! A curse on this entire so called 'Council'! May your shinies be forever dull. May your bureaucracy choke on itself. Witness the wrath of the Goldfather!"

The Goldfather attempts to curse the economy of every non Dwarf or Mountwyrm civilization.

"I'm so glad to inhabit the same bubble as you people. So very very glad."

"I can't tell if you're serious, or just taking the opportunity to further annoy Fusil. Either way, I approve."

"Propose we shut Fusil up, permanently."

"I had honestly forgotten about that proposal. But yes, lets give Fusil his voice back before he breaks something."

Azem sighs.

"Enough! You shortsighted petty useless wastes of essence! Enough. Mistrust. Paranoia. Deception, or, malicious deception if Quéßäre insists. These are the true enemy. The true force that will destroy us all, and everything we have worked for. Am I the only one, of all the divines, who realizes this?"

Azem stands up from this usual sitting/laying position.

"I am Azem, the world's Goldfather, he of shiniest scales and sharpest claws, the hoardkeeper. Welcome. Please enjoy your existence in our pleasant bubble full of suspicion and deception."

Azem covers his face with his wings.

"The new god just said 'for the love of all that is good' and I expected you to make a quip about it."

"I didn't know the new god liked Darruth that much."

Azem grins at Fusil.

"I thought I'd beat you to it."

"Why am I not surprised that we're discussing games instead of the Merfolk invasion?"

Azem takes several deep breaths.

"You do not desire our belief Armsbearer. You do not desire our competence. And I sincerely doubt you desire our existence. So what is it you desire Fusil? Please, enlighten me."

Azem snorts.

"The great and mighty Fusil Armsbearer, our humble protector, first among the gods. That really is who you want to be isn't it? No, that is who you believe you are. But I do not trust your 'protection'."

Xaver raises a godly eyebrow.

"Mortals come and mortals go, planets come and planets go. Universes come and universes go. A system cannot be coddled forever. If it deserves to stand, it will stand. If it deserves to fall, it will fall."

"If they need strength to survive, then I will be their strength. They will never fall as long as I stand."

Azem rolls his eyes.

"I do peruse the very earliest Council records from time to time Fusil. The "perfect reincarnation cycle" you love so much? Was the idea of the god of Treachery."

"He would never have come upon it without my suggestions. Do you doubt that I was a major player in the design?"

"Perhaps you were. I cannot ask them, because they died. My point is this. Many gods were present in the murk of pre-creation. Many gods have ideas, and many gods have powers of Creation. Many gods poured Essence into your "perfect worlds", and you neither respect nor acknowledge the power of any of them. And that is a disgrace."

Azem scowls.

"What a din! I know enough to be confused that Darruth and Fusil are agreeing on something, that is about it.'

Emerald tentacles spring from Azem's back.

"Now why don't you numbskulls knocks it off before I, err, it's really hard to make dull shinies and paperwork sound threatening. Even if my last curse supposedly did kill people."

The tentacles retract.

"Are you perhaps looking to get on the good side of the almighty Arms-Bearer Fortuna? Let's say you are, for the sake of argument. You will always be nothing more than a gnat to be either ignored or squashed at his leisure. That's how his mind works. It is obvious, it is plain. And it is dangerous. This is my opinion, borne of bias and a long existence, and it is unlikely to change."

Azem snorts.

"We seem to both agree that the Council is pathetic. The difference is, you see this as a good thing. I hope you enjoy your stay in the bubble of Fusil Arms-Bearer. The rest of us are just petty gods. How dare we exist? How dare we have power? How dare we learn? How dare we share the same space as our all powerful Lord?"

Azem vanishes in a flash of green.

"Who me? I didn't say anything. I'm just here to watch Fusil kill you all. I'm just here to watch you cow in fear before the almighty protector of the bubble. I'm just here to watch your collective stupidity."

[Stirk]

Pff. The most annoying characteristic of Azem is his habit of appearing in every game.

Fusil was also the most powerful single God in existence, which is how he got away with it. Given your character's track records, you would be doomed in a hundredth of the time :p.

What about just philosophical zombies?

I have a question about Ye Gods 1. Was there any main evil god who everybody hated? How did everybody react to that god?

Obviously Darruth. Stirk can confirm.

[hector13]

Philosophical zombies?

"I brrraaaiiinnnzzz therefore I am"?

[Vgray]

While we're on this trip through memory lane, am I the only who hates secret actions?

[tntey]

While we're on this trip through memory lane, am I the only who hates secret actions?

I love them! How else would the murder of Zenurion be planned?

[Stirk]

Obviously Darruth. Stirk can confirm.

Indeed, he was the most Vile thing to ever curse the Bubble, and indeed everyone hated him. But I forget he exists sometimes, because he lacks the raw power, grace, and amazingness Fusil had.

While we're on this trip through memory lane, am I the only who hates secret actions?

Do you ever perform non-secret actions either? In any case, I love them.

While we're on this trip through memory lane, am I the only who hates secret actions?

I love them! How else would the murder of Zenurion be planned?

You planned that? It seems to me you just kinda rushed him with a godslaying weapon and hoped for the best.
