"I am Ushoran. I am newly risen! Who are you?" Ushoran's voice is deep and resonating.
"We are (name) and (name), bone devils of Faltros's army. Was it you that caused the downing of one of our soldiers?" The second bone devil gestures to the unconscious first devil.
"Twas his fault, good sirs. He was attempting to steal my crown and weapon, which I now hold. I expect that he was going to take them to your master when they are mine by right."
"Was it obvious it was your property?"
"Well, admittedly no, yet he should have left the chalice of blood alone. And once he had experienced the side effects he should have ran, not stole!"
The devil, regaining consciousness, raises his hand. "Not fair... Voice compelled me to..." He then goes unconscious again.

Hello! I am a perfectly sane gibberer. Hi! :D
Locations are dead, the Temple of Potassium has fallen but its ideals live on
“Again, that is remarkably self aware. I respect someone who doesn’t lie to themselves ‘bout the destructiveness of their actions.” He turns his hollow socketed gaze to the setting son that paints his desert sky red to match his stone. “I reckon those fools need to be stopped. They’ve caused a lot of harm already and minding my own business ain’t done a lick of good. It’s time for this to be over with an out to rest.”
Crotalus, the god of the desert, of famine, of struggle, and of honesty, takes off his cowboy hat and sets it aside. He then picks up the crown of thorns and sets it between his wide spread horns.
The sky darkens as clouds form. It doesn’t rain, but it grows darker.
thank you. Now, where shall we begin…
the Crown of Herionidus and Crotalus have formed a mythos! (If that’s alright with you) and the crown is gonna be giving half of all the power it earns every day to Crotalus (so and extra 50 power a day for now)
The thorns of the crown scrape dryly against his bleached white skull as the crown is placed on his head. Then it begins to twist and grow, sending jagged, thorn lined vines swirling around his wide horns.
"Where is that usurping Faltros hiding?"
Buzzards pinwheel in the air, anticipating the blood that will be shed and waiting hungrily for their meal.
I believe he has carved himself his own underworld deep beneath the earth, filled with unimaginable horror. It might take a while to find any entrance…
"Do you know who might know the entrance, or do we have to start from scratch?"
He pulls his twin revolvers out and dusts them.
The demon might have minions that are still on the surface that might know where the entrance is…
Crotalus leaps off the edge of the Holy Mesa and transforms into a humongous buzzard with feathers as black as pitch, a featherless head as red as a fresh wound, and a curved beak sharper than the crescent moon. A thorn vine collar wraps tightly around his throat. "Now where might these fiendish folk be?"
a dust storm whips up "i am aspect of the storm lord, who has pledged his help in your vengance. he has seen such creatures, offering fell majyks to humans at no apparent cost."
"Well, howdy. Your help would be mighty 'ppreciated. You mind pointing me in the right direction?" says the desert god in the form of a buzzard.
the dust storm provides the last seen location *does Crotalus have a chaotic alignment*
*Crotalus believes in an order of chaos. A bunch of order gods would probably find him to be too chaotic, a bunch of chaos gods might be confused by his law.*
"I thankee kindly," He says and with a tip of his wing he swoops towards that direction.
*close enough, so long as his alignment is chaotic. wanna form a mythos?*
*Sure. Faltros is an old being so we’ll need all the help we can get in taking him down.*

Hello! I am a perfectly sane gibberer. Hi! :D
Locations are dead, the Temple of Potassium has fallen but its ideals live on
*i currently only have two gods that can really interact with others, one of them being the crown of Herionidus (which I will now be referring it as the Crown of Slaughter, only as the original name if it’s important for the interaction) which isn’t able to move on its own and is only really able to interact through telepathy or if another god is near it/Crotalus, and the other one being Tarcza, which is one of two twin horrors, the other being being the Overgod Zarznac, and Baalz is not active on here much, neither of them are very easy to interact with, even though Tarcza can still do stuff on their own of course. So I may be making a new god, or perhaps even a demon or great one. I just need inspiration…*
*wait, question. Kasrik said he was leaving ddb, so (apologies if this sounds rude or disrespectful to him in advance) there's an empty slot for an Overgod. How do we decide that? Do we just do whoever has the most power points? Or do we just call dibs (if so, I call dibs)*

"you, like me, are an embodiment of a chaotic force: the desert"
"I like to think that the desert is the embodiment of me. It is the expression of my nature in nature." He flaps his buzzard wings, "I do make sure my domain remains an untamed wilderness. It is chaos, yes, but I think you will find that law stalks my sands just as well."
*I think it's safe to say that ol' Starseer has been inactive for long enough to be out of commission. Would I be allowed to change my Greater Will into another one?*

Hello! I am a perfectly sane gibberer. Hi! :D
Locations are dead, the Temple of Potassium has fallen but its ideals live on
Ebon flame sees dozens of humans running, exhausted and covered in mud and dirt, from a giant valley surrounded by enormous white cliffs. The humans look like they haven’t stopped running for at least a day, and they are heading for the ruined city.
Ebonflame (one word) creates ananhkoloxto guard the city, (CR 9, can do it because undeath domain so 2 levels higher for undeath related stuff) but orders it to capture, not kill.
Upon seeing the creature, the humans all try to flee. (Which I assume fails because it’s a CR 9 monster, I just can’t see it cuz I don’t own that book.)
it has str 22, so... yeah. it only is able to capture 1 though
That one person is absolutely terrified as it is captured.
ebonflame asks it what its doing here in his domain
“P-please let me go... we were just trying to get away from them… the valley of Dead Herionidus… The Red Festival.
another human is approaching the city, not a part of the original group. He is an old man, stumbling through the wasteland that is only starting to sprout with flowers and life. In his hands he holds a crown made of thorns and pale pink flowers. It radiates with traces of power. The old man has a blank expression, wandering towards the city without meaning.
Ahh... Heriondus. So... how did you end up at the red festival?
he summons several zombies to escort the new arrival
“W-we were just minding our business, we lived in the valley… but then the Swarm murdered Herionidus… and Herionidus unleashed those wretched things into the valley. Every night, they kill hundreds. We were lucky to get out, most people couldn’t leave because the river became too strong…”
the old man doesn’t resist or flee in terror, instead following the zombies mindlessly.
The zombies lead the old man to Ebonflame, and he tells the old man what happened to the crown, and advises that he dispose of it. He also orders the ankholox to release the other human.
The human flees for their life.
The old man’s blank face shifts, showing hints of anger.
”t-the crown… must find a bearer… i-i am not worthy… I am not a god…”
funnelcloud descends, etc "would a Great One be close enough?"
this is my domain. I am supposed to be the only one here, besides mortal creatures. why are there 2 other greater wills in MY domain? get out! both of you!
The crown speaks, the words quivering into existence around it.
i can offer you… power…
really? you wouldn't merely compete with me? and you, funnel cloud, what say you. And one last question for you, crown: Are you really here, or are you being worn by someone named Crotalus in a desert? The same goes for you, old man.
The world works in mysterious ways. The crown says.
the old man says nothing.
I see... but if i were to fight crotalus, who's side would you be on? I trust only those who i know would never betray me. I can't yet trust you.
I would be on the side of whoever were to be wearing me, which will likely be the most powerful one. If you are powerful already, then my power should surely make you just as strong as the desert god Crotalus.
hmm... but i have heard rumors that you have formed a mythos with crotalus now. begone! i don't want to have to use force, i would like it if you could leave peacefully
