Fierra, I promise to keep a nice big pot of chaos bubbling away for any of you lovely god-types that want any.

Especially is that means you will grant me a puppy. 🙂

Pandora gets a puppy…an especially cute, wriggly, chewing kind of puppy for maximum chaos!

Anthracite, I have to confess…I consulted with another god on this one…the final title is…

goddess of coal, pornographic posts, ULVAN & futile male fantasy…  
(after all lesbian vampires needs goddesses too…)

harriet, maenads aren’t goddesses…but you can be goddess of running naked throught the towns, tearing men limb from limb and wild celebrations…(not necessarily in that order 😉 )

& Odieman, I proclaim you god of northern snows, skies and winds

Queen goddess of the mundane and average. The even handed. Den mother for all male gods and demi gods 'cause we know that can’t be trusted on their own, but don’t tell them that.  
Totem animal is the tortise - mantra:it may take a while but it’ll get done eventually.
