Can't argue with that.

Dude...

Does our Tubeworld™ have endcaps? Asking for a friend.

Nagus Sterling, the Count of Craving, had introduced commerce to the world as his gift and now things would start to happen. Civilization could truly begin. You’re welcome. People didn’t know how to do it well, though. Further guidance was needed so he took to teaching them the joy of profit. Merchants and traders wishing for success in dealings will often build a shrine to Nagus asking begging bargaining for his favor. To say a business or entrepreneur is blessed could be quite literal. Secondary domain: Profit! Trade, capitalism, and all that it encapsulates summarized neatly in one simple little word. (This is heavily implied, I think, but I wanted to formalize it.)

Why not? They're both gadget using super geniuses.

I own two shirts and some neckwear that used to belong to a guy who was in The Mamas & The Papas. All the sleeves are brown, and the tie is grey.

Damn... And DT: that is acceptable.

Once again, this plays with this world’s timeline a little bit. Such is a demigod’s lot in life. Nagus Sterling, the Lord of Longing, was restless as he watched the people below. They were so… inefficient. So random. And so wasteful! They needed a little guidance, the kind he was uniquely qualified to give. He knew where it would lead eventually, of course (he was a god after all), but it was all a part of the game. Nagus Sterling’s Gift to Civilization is Commerce, money and the knowledge of its use in buying, selling, and the whole field of exchange. Thanks to Etterskell’s influence the world was blessed with multiple currencies scattered throughout the realm, different states, different races, even different cities claimed their own. This created confusion. It would be so much simpler to generate a single system, but confusion would be so much easier to exploit.

That's his happy face. *sigh*

They started on Saturday here. Dex is spending this entire week under the bed.

I'll take Gothic, Art Deco, and Classical, though they don't really work together.

I fear using a Skeletor gif for Nagus' introduction may have given the wrong impression. I am not a destroyer of companies. I am a liberator of them! The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that greed -- for lack of a better word -- is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms -- greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge -- has marked the upward surge of mankind.
