[QUOTE="Naoki00_, post: 5615735, member: 99243"] to Doug McCrae: why thank you for the compliment heh, I have the penchant for the epic. as for being more powerful then the overgods, that not so in the story, more or less even as the entirety of the negative energy plane she's more powerful then rank 6-8 deities without much of a stretch, but over that is pushing it. the way the universe works right now is that a god has total domain over it's title unless what it's asserting it's might over is stronger then it (such as a god with dominion over animals could smite or control anything animal without even trying unless it was more powerful energy wise) our magic works on logic partly, such as- magic isn't common place because too much magic creates too much chaos. A world with so much power flowing around and some upstart could break a planet, you need to invest effort into something, not just read a bunch (being 100 years old and having read 1000 books of magic means jack crap if you've never done it or built up your own spiritual/energetic might to even do it....sadly I have to bring in a naruto/DBZ reference 'not enough chakra/chi/inner magic reserves and all your stored and known spells mean squat cause you can't muster the power to form them). now because she's the daughter of Ao and the personification of magic itself, she's pretty immune to most deific stuff.
