You taste the essence of spent divine energy like the drop was hollow. "Life is a good answer. Now, I know that you are Mimzy." She adds. "That is your core, your nature; but what is your name?"
The Mimzy smiles and replies, "now that you know I am a Mimzy you mean... all you need now is my proper name, which is easy enough, it's... 'Lilita Lulitu'! Or perhaps you prefer just the plain and simple of it, then, in that case, it is 'Li-Lu' for short but it's all the same in the end isn't it?" She giggles...
He looks around, Having been so focused on potential threats that he did not see the others around. Taking them in while still watching the gruff figure he wonders what connection they have to him. He then meets the others eyes and stands to his full height. "My name is Vanyel, and I protect my companions and those dear to me . I do not know any of these and so they are not under my protection. Are you telling me that is going to change?"
As you stand tall, you tower over every creature in this room by double height at least, all but one. He glares you in the eyes. "You should use your mind more often, these are the other champions of the Gods; how would they not be your fellow companions?" He shakes head. "Vanyel, I hope you decide to use your mind when you give me my name." He almost sneers as he says it.
"I get to pick my own name?" I ask, shocked. "Hmm, names are important. Wait, your champion? Then perhaps I should know your name before I choose mine."
"Oh, uh... I did it again. I messed up the questions again, oh no. My name is the next question... Now you have to name us both, oh no... I... I'm so sorry." She shakes her head, looking very sorry.
"Listen, if this is your nature, so be it. Just know that if I am to be your champion like these others, what is the word you would like to be spread in your name? Fear? Love? Hate? Protection? I do like a certain amount of fear, mind. It makes you feel alive. I feel I have a name, it came to me in the tank. Mercury Tytan-Strattis. That feels right. And what should I call you, my lord?"
Mercury smiles at the Shadow, feeling as if he has a little hold over a God. He runs his hands over his head, throws some of the liquid onto the ground and looks in anticipation.
"You will be the one spreading my name, you shall decide how this world will see me. But what name will you tell them?" He flies a bit closer, waiting your reply.
"Hmm.. you don't know my name..? Do I? Oh! I do! It's Ash! Some people call me Ashley, but I like Ash."
"Hmm. Yeah, sounds good." She looks you up and down. "Okay, my turn. What is the name of your God?" She stands straight and focused, listening intently.
The Mimzy smiles and replies, "now that you know I am a Mimzy you mean... all you need now is my proper name, which is easy enough, it's... 'Lilita Lulitu'! Or perhaps you prefer just the plain and simple of it, then, in that case, it is 'Li-Lu' for short but it's all the same in the end isn't it?" She giggles...
She giggles with you. "Li-Lu." She smiles. "I can't wait for you to pick mine."
"Oh, uh... I did it again. I messed up the questions again, oh no. My name is the next question... Now you have to name us both, oh no... I... I'm so sorry." She shakes her head, looking very sorry.
"I get to name both of us?" I sigh and bite my lip nervously, not wanting to get this wrong. Straightening up, I say, "Right, then. Your name is Krythlynn and my name is Penris. Will those do?"
Vanyel straightens to full height feeling the strength of his form more fully now. He looks at the figure and smiles with a proud look. "You do not have a known name, it is too powerful and holy to be put into mortal tongue. Instead you are called by title. You are known as The Mighty and I am your servant." At that the truth became real to Vanyel and he bowed on one knee with fist in front of him on the ground to honor his god.

Kip looks at the girl with exitement in his eyes. A moment later that excitment turns to nervousness. As she asks him to give her a name... "oh, umm... me pick a name for you? Are you sure? OK... Well do you like the name "Hope"?" The large fuzzy creature will look up to the girl with big eager eyes... "I think Hope is a good name, but if you don't like it... then I don't like it... because I thought it was a good name.... but if you don't think it is then it is probably really bad and you shouldn't use it....
"Hmm. Yeah, sounds good." She looks you up and down. "Okay, my turn. What is the name of your God?" She stands straight and focused, listening intently.
"Torm" Ash looks down at their right hand, and extends it palm forward. "Yeah.. it's Torm."
"I get to name both of us?" I sigh and bite my lip nervously, not wanting to get this wrong. Straightening up, I say, "Right, then. Your name is Krythlynn and my name is Penris. Will those do?"
She smiles widely. "I love it." She turns towards Luna; "Should we tell them the rest now?" Luna nods. Krythlynn pauses and prepares herself.
"You are from Haven; home to Halflings, Kender, Squirrelings, and Bugbears. You are from a family that owns the library. You are a Halfling and... um, hmm. I guess that's it."
He nods in agreement. "Good, this works for me." He pauses for a moment. "You shall know fear in this life; but that fear has already been overcome by you." Pluto smiles as he says this. "You are a Svirfneblin, also known as a Deep Gnome. You have been touched by the Fey, which has led you to being feared by your people. You were raised by the Deep Gnome Loretta Stormhammer in the Haven orphanage. You will continue to face fear from others, but it doesn't phase you. Not now that you've begun tapping into the power I have granted you."
Vanyel straightens to full height feeling the strength of his form more fully now. He looks at the figure and smiles with a proud look. "You do not have a known name, it is too powerful and holy to be put into mortal tongue. Instead you are called by title. You are known as The Mighty and I am your servant." At that the truth became real to Vanyel and he bowed on one knee with fist in front of him on the ground to honor his god.
The Mighty grins a huge toothy grin. "That will do." He says. "That will do fine." He nods to himself. "You are the powerful race known as Bugbears, warriors by trade; though used more as Couriers since the Wyrwood chased your people out of Tytan Forest centuries ago." The Mighty stands proud over you, before relaxing and dropping his guard.
The Mimzy looks at her, "you already have a name silly, did you just forget? Your name is... Luna!"
Luna smiles; "Of course it is. No wonder we have a moon portal to communicate to the mortal plain. Oh, but that is information for later." She smiles, almost secretly. "You are my favorite creation, a Kender. You have loose hands, big hearts, and no fear. A bit of fun and mischief added to the world; a bit of mimzy."
She looks around the room. "I guess we are almost done here. The Elder God's steps have been followed, you are officially our first Champions and our first voices on the mortal plane. Please speak well of us."
Kip looks at the girl with exitement in his eyes. A moment later that excitment turns to nervousness. As she asks him to give her a name... "oh, umm... me pick a name for you? Are you sure? OK... Well do you like the name "Hope"?" The large fuzzy creature will look up to the girl with big eager eyes... "I think Hope is a good name, but if you don't like it... then I don't like it... because I thought it was a good name.... but if you don't think it is then it is probably really bad and you shouldn't use it....
Suddenly Hope leaps into your arms; " I LOVE IT!!" She yells in glee. "I will make sure you are happy with a big family, and one day I will keep you; I promise!" She hugs you tightly again.
"You are a Squirreling, a creature that loves the forest so much, that your people pleaded me to make them closer to nature before they even knew my name. They were Halflings once, but that time has long past."
"Torm" Ash looks down at their right hand, and extends it palm forward. "Yeah.. it's Torm."
Your small hand reaches towards Torm and she smiles. Suddenly a board with pieces on it manifests in the air between you. "You are a Halfling, a lover of games as well as hard work. And we are going to go through both in our coming journeys." Torm says with a smile.

**********
Ash bows awkwardly "Wow, I've never met a god before. What kind of journey's are we going on? I'll do anything I can to help you."
"A though one likely. We don't actually know what dangers you'll face, we only know that danger is approaching. The Elder Gods didn't tell us any more, and we are all sorta new to this as well." Torm says. She then moves a piece on the board between you.
Luna smiles; "Of course it is. No wonder we have a moon portal to communicate to the mortal plain. Oh, but that is information for later." She smiles, almost secretly. "You are my favorite creation, a Kender. You have loose hands, big hearts, and no fear. A bit of fun and mischief added to the world; a bit of mimzy."
She looks around the room. "I guess we are almost done here. The Elder Gods steps have been followed, you are officially our first Champions and our first voices on the mortal plane. Please speak well of us."
Mimzy looks at Luna sadly, "a Kender,"she repeats and shakes her head in disappointment steadfastly refusing to travel to the mortal plane or any other plane, "I would rather return to the ether of nothingness and nonexistence than live a mortal life as a Kender! I am Mimzy, I am Fey..."Looking at the gods and their creations, the others, "you have your Champions then, good luck to you all... farewell. Thank you for a short existence... goodbye!" :)
She smiles widely. "I love it." She turns towards Luna; "Should we tell them the rest now?" Luna nods. Krythlynn pauses and prepares herself.
"You are from Haven; home to Halflings, Kender, Squirrelings, and Bugbears. You are from a family that owns the library. You are a Halfling and... um, hmm. I guess that's it."
"I'm Penris the Halfing from Haven?" I ask. I pause for a moment, to see how I feel about that. Good, I decide. "OK. What happens now?"
Kip will give Hope an even tighter, brushing her face with his incredibly long poofy tail before letting her go and looking her in the face. "Thank you for everything Hope... I hope I can make you proud. I appreciate everything you have done for me... " Then looking around and seeing the other and their Gods he will look back to Hope. "I think I got the best God.. don't tell them I said that though..."
"An orphan. Seems fitting. I will judge you as the weeks turn into years, and when I come to a decision you will know if I deem you worthy of worship."
Vanyel smiles a big toothy grin and rises to his feet once more. "So Lord Mighty One, What is it you have for me to do for you? I hunger for battle and to prove my worth. How can I help these lesser creatures in your name?"

"NO! No, no, no! Don't ask for that! Not in this room." Luna calls out loudly; swet dripping off her face. "You don't understand, your words have power here! I... I can't stop it!!"
Suddenly Li-Lu disperses into the ether. A horrifying scream escapes Luna's mouth moments before she shatters into energy that quickly disperses as well. Every God stares in shock at what just happened.
(Oddlot has left the campaign. There issue with Kender has made it impossible for them to continue with the campaign. We will continue without them, and I'm sorry that we are unable to continue with them.)
