[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 284508, member: 326"] Hi Serge mate! :) All gods have concerns across multiple cosmologies. Simple. You are not giving other 'Gods' full credit. Odin might be worshipped under a dozen different identities on a hundred worlds with followers numbering in the billions. He has at least 30 deities under his command, many with potentially millions of worshippers in their own right. Not counting hundreds of Hero-deities, the Einheriar. All this is backed by hundreds of millions of souls/spirits/petitioners. Asmodeus has, at best; 2 Lesser Gods, 6 Demigods, 99 Hero-deities and millions of souls/spirits (many evolved into the Baatezu). You could argue that he only really has 2 Demigods and about a dozen Hero-deities at his personal disposal...though I am sure facing an external threat he could call upon Mephisto and Baalzebul to provide assistance. Likewise, the Demon Monarchs probably have a handful of Princes and a dozen or so Lords to command, as well as millions of souls/spirits (many evolved into Tanar'ri). The Gord the Rogue novels (sorry to bring them up again) have numerous large scale battles as well as many personal confrontations between beings of power that should not only entertain you, but give you an insight into the kind of might Gary Gygax envisioned for such beings. Sooner rather than later. Best case scenario, about a month I think? Or at least by then I should know exactly when. Just about. [/QUOTE]
