Oh man...
Like you have to even ask? The Wandering God. Lord of nomads, his life isn't tied down. Constantly moving, his life is chaos by choice and design. A code of honor is his strength and shield. His fury is that of the sandstorm, oblierating everything in it's path. Moving on to more well known gods, and allowing some gender bending, I'd choose Mother Nature. Just so I could totally do an insane combination of every disaster movie ever, along with all those movies with crazy/dangerous animals. But only to those who deserved it... >.> The Wandering God |

Hmm...I'm torn choosing my pantheon and specific deity. I really like the Egyptians, but ever since I started watching Stargate SG:1 the entire group immediately conjures images of creepy snakes.
The Norse pantheon is cool, and if I had my choice, I would go with Thor, because he has a hammer, a cart driven by two flying goats (I believe), he gets to beat the daylights out of giants, and is generally the kick-ass protector of mankind. If I went with the Hindu Pantheon though, I think I'd have to go with Shiva. Sure he occasionally destroys the universe, but in between he's out keeping the balance and renewing things so that life might flourish. Vishnu's cool too...but ultimately both are merely part of one great undivided whole (which we are all also a part of). However, I think my ultimate choice would be one of the Tuatha de Danaan: the ancient Gods and Kings who fought for and then ruled Ireland before the coming of the Gaels. After leaving the mortal world, they went to eternal kingdoms accessible only by entering certain ancient monuments scattered about the island. Personal preference? I'm definitely going to have to go with Lugh. Jack of all trades, spear-wielding warrior, slayer of Balor (the crazy man with the poison eye which can kill anything), ancient High King of Ireland...hard to go wrong.

Thor was in comic books, so I choose that guy. Either that, or the TV/media god from Neil Gaimen's "American God's".

I'm surprised no one mentioned him.
Kefka. I mean, c'mon! He has no responsibilities whatsoever! His sole purpose is blowing the world into oblivion! Granted, it might be boring after a while... y'know, when everything stops existing. ... That's when you rebuild the world with messed up physics, then blow it up again! Anyone here who does not like blowing things up, raise their hands and say "Aye". Thought so.

Hmm... Yeah, I'd be Fate. From discword. Hes an omnipotent asshole who makes life difficult for pretty much everyone. Whats not to like?I would have gone with the lady, but, as you may have gathered from the title, she's a lady. And I'm rather fond of my gender.
...That didn't come out right.

If I could be a god?
What, you mean I'm not already? Fine. I would be Raistlin Majere. Conqueror of Gods, and bringer of Annihilation to all Existence. At least, in one eternity.

As for Khronos, what's great is that it was the prophecy itself that caused the prophecy to come true. Self fulfilling prophecies. :P Sucks for him, I'm sure.

Oh, as for an actual answer:
I'll go with Nirrti. Death and destruction is a cool bit. Not to mention being one of the dikpala. There are probably a lot of similar gods/goddesses in other mythology and religions to make this not a vastly unique choice, but I am really fond of the name.

It's like the forums megalomania condensed into one thread... ...And Krylo with his blood orgies. Still, in almost any mythos, every god has SOME sort of hardship or sacrifice aside from the weaker and less unique ones. I really wouldn't want any role or responsibility of godhood, so, I'd choose none. Unless you're Krylo with your blood orgies. Then, whatever floats your boat. (In this case, blood and sexual juices!)
