[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8034968, member: 6704184"] Not sure why i never replied to this when you posted it. I agree completely. There are some little nuggets of gold in the Morty's Fome of Toes writeup for RQ, but overall, it's just bad. Why change a cosmic figure from a Neutral-but-largely-benevolent figure that guards the natural process of death and opposes interlopers in that process, into literally the opposite of that? What possible sense does that make? That's like making Pelor into a power of encroaching darkness and patron of those who snuff out light. That said, I have a whole backstory for her that combines her story with The Red Witch and the Lady of The White Well, making a triune power of 3 individuals (no one believe they're the same being, they're definitely sisters and individuals, with RQ being the greatest of the three) who became powers as part of a ritual that saved their people from utter annihilation, but cost them their names, and involved stealing the power from the old god of death.
