Psybolt got a reaction from Logan D. Hurricanes in World Creation Superdraft 7: July 2023
Mister Rancor had been noticeably absent from much of the specifics happening in the cylindrical world, with the multiple events and objects from the accident of Etterskell only opening more opportunity. Rancor shook his head.
He stood on the land that had been scarred.... glancing at the doom brought forth by his son. Rancor was not sure if what he was feeling was pride... or truthfully resentment of being surpassed by one so young. His feelings for Crax were complicated, but was much more pure than the feelings he had for his siblings.
Rancor had been existing within the shadows of Masque, a place where he felt comfortable, but the brazen attack demanded his attention.
Shifting forms into what appeared to be a survivor, one of those saved by the hopeful, whose resiliency always turned his stomach. When he had the chance, Mister Rancor found himself whispering into the ears of the survivors. "Why did the God of Heroes cast us aside?" "Clarkent Kal has forsaken our justice." "Alitheon brought death to us all." "I heard the Elven nomads Aelf were the true unspoken force behind the assault. Such black eyes..."
As he spread the rumors through the survivors, planting seeds intended to sprout into the burning hatred and thriving revenge, Mister Rancor decided to target Hedonia as well. Gambling is such an ample target. The house never loses and those who find themselves unable to cope, have hatred fueling within their breasts. Rancor made sure that these hapless losers knew whom to blame for their lot in life... those who worshiped Nagus Sterling.
Mister Rancor never wanted the direct action, preferring to allow the explosion to form from within. Those were always the most damaging.

PS: I should add that, Etterskell is difficult to know, so I Hope I've given proper due to HOW his oops might have altered the nature of the world with this choice. Brightbringer wills one elven land, and got a handful. If I overstepped there, or with mention of other gods being worshiped, let me know.

Time for some flavour text.
On the nature of Crax and his relationship to the other Gods.
Crax came after some of the other Gods and so there are claims that Mister Rancor is his father for hate can lead to murder. And although murder can lead to hate, you have to have hate before you can have murder which is the argument used to suggest that Mister Rancor is Crax's father. Similarly Ceass the goddess of Strife is older than Crax as again Strife can lead to murder but you have to have strife before murder. There are thus suggestions that Mister Rancor fathered both Ceass and Crax. Or that he fathered Ceass and she give birth to Crax. So either Ceass is Crax's mother or his older sister. Crax's doctrines indeed venerate both Mister Rancor and Ceass but do not specify the exact relationship. Some say that this is the work of Masque.
It is unclear what role Masque and Crax have with each other for indeed intrigue can lead to murder and vice versa. Some say that this is to spite both Aziza and her Truth and Alitheon and Learning although whether Masque or Crax is responsible for this is hard to say.
Crax is on friendly terms with Nagus Starling as Greed, commerce and profit can lead to murder which pleases the former no end.
There are two gods that Crax does not like or indeed hates which gives theologians evidence that Mister Rancor is his daddy or indeed is on friendly terms with him. Brightbringer and Clarkent Kal are those that worship Crax dare not mention as the wrath of the god is fiercesome. Hope does not lead to murder or and resilience can thwart it while righteousness and justice oppose evil and murder. There is an epic work that describes Crax attempting to kill Hope but failing in one version due to the resilience of the goddess and the goddess being saved by the god of righteousness in another. While Crax will resort to all sorts of foul schemes to kill Nadiya, the sight of Clarkent Kal unhinges him to the extent he will break off from what he is doing to fight the god of righteousness. There is one point of agreement between the creeds of gods of evil and of righteousness, Crax and Clarkent Kal hated each other on first sight. Indeed Crax does need to be asked by Mister Rancor or Ceass for aid if either are opposing Nadiya Brightbringer or Clarkent Kal, he joins right in. Unless of course either of his elders have asked that he does not get involved.
If another god asked for assistance against his enemies Crax would be cautious if not outright suspicious. He is more likely to believe Masque or Nagus Starling but the chance to thwart Hope and Righteousness can blind him to another's agenda.
Crax is wary of Thoal Anni'in for fire can aid but also thwart evil and murder.
Crax has no time for Truth or reflection but both can lead to evil and murder and also away from it.
Illumination however can bring light onto a deed as dark as murder which pits Alitheon's followers against Crax.
Crax should be friendlier with Oeneus as intoxicants and sex are perfect recipes for evil and murder but something makes Crax neutral towards him. There is at least one piece of work that claims that this is due to Oeneus being Crax's father. Where this leaves the God of Bastards and Neglect is anyone's guess as Crax has little if anything to do or say about him.
Crax has little to do with Strangecharm and Etterskell as they do not seem to aid or oppose him in any way.
NOTE: I have deliberately kept this vague as we are only just beginning and various sects can believe what they want it just might not be right.
I do like the idea of an Axis of Evil with Mister Rancor, Ceass and Crax opposing Nadiya and Clarkent Kal but whether Rancor and Ceass are indeed related to Crax in any way shape of form is left up to their owners. I have left it as an option.
Both Hermit and csyphrett have set themselves against Psybolt and myself with their choices so I do hope that you are content with Crax's opposition.
If indeed Enforcer84 wants to set Strife against Hope which is what I gathered from the initial selection, I can backpedal so you and Hermit can have room to breathe.
Oh and Sociotard ?
Does your god have a name ?

Mister Rancor knew the best way to spread hatred is to give the world someone that will fall into conflict with each other. These creatures seemed to be the easiest to do so.

The problem with these world creation drafts is that I run out of reactions too quickly.

If there's going to be a crossover here it should be between Psybolt and myself, especially after my last selection.
Option 7: What could be worse than a war between the time lords of Marvel and DC? A war with THE Time Lord, Rassilon the Resurrected!
