Honestly, my problem is that Talija is obviously aping the other gods.

The Arguing God is the god of Darwinian Evolution? HA! I'll be the god of plants and animals!
There's a god of structures and inanimate objects? HA! I'll be the god of ideas and creativity!
There's a god of wind and storms? HA! I'll be the god of rain!

I wouldn't be surprised if the sheet gets edited to include darkness or betrayal or something.
I'm always up for Dark Sun.
@TalijaKey
I'm going to address your points as best I can understand them, because reading that post hurts my eyes.

1. All of humanity's greatest ideas and creations have been in order to give nature the finger. No claws, venom, or dermal plates? FUCK YOU, WE'RE MAKING TOOLS. Nature wants us to live in trees? FUCK YOU, HUNTING PARTIES AND MUD HUTS. Nature wants to limit our population as hunter-gatherers? HAHA, NOPE, AGRICULTURE LOSERS. Nature wants to keep us confined to a single landmass with large bodies of water? GUESS WHAT FUCKERS, WE MADE BOATS. Nature wants to limit where we can grow crops? MEET IRRIGATION, FUCKTARDS.

Each and every great invention that allowed civilization to be what it is today has been a punch in the throat of nature. Humanity's struggle has not been to "follow nature's ideas and laws." It's been to break them as flagrantly and frequently as possible.

2. Nature is not the manifestation of ideas. What you're thinking of is some kind of collective unconscious dreamworld dealy. Nature is nature, the things that aren't man-made.

3. If "SHE COULDN'T DECIDE" is an acceptable reason for such a nonsensical domain, then I shall be god of Survival, Conflict, Ingenuity, Divinity, and The Third Tuesday of Every Month. Vetovid is the god of war and clairvoyance, which shares a word with "strategy" in the Slavic tongues. Veles is the god of "magic" in the sense that "magic" is "any knowledge peasants don't understand." Such as trade and the care of livestock.

Name: Un, the Arguing God

Aspect: Survival, Conflict, Ingenuity

Personality: Every decision is made by a cacophonous committee of heads representing his stray thoughts. Consensus is eventually reached, and the FUN begins. The best way to toughen up the mortals for when the gods are bored or have better stuff to do is to train them to handle horrible things every day.

Avatar: There are two things that the multitude of heads can agree upon: one, Un looks good in white and a shaggy fur coat, and two, the more heads the better. The more heads, the more possible solutions they can come up with. After all, two heads are better than one, so six, seven, or even forty heads must be fantastic!
@TalijaKey Honestly, I gotta ask how you're relating those domains without going into poetic allegories or something.

I assumed we'd be roleplaying as the gods, honestly.
Eh, what the heck, worldbuilding's always fun.
"WAAAAA-HAHAHA!"

Wario slammed his meaty fist into his plate, flipping his shrimp up into the air. His mouth opened wide as he swallowed the garlic-rich morsels and stood on his chair.

"ANOTHER DIMENSION!? I WAS WORRIED FOR A SECOND!"

Wario's arms doubled in size as he flexed, muscles bulging through the layers of fat. With a wide grin, he made his proclomation.

"It doesn't matter if it's The Gold Diva, The Viewer, The Black Diamond, or Rudy the Clown! This'll be a perfect chance to rob that Viewer dork and the rest of the multiverse blind!"
You didn't read the list. Jack Bright has dealt with shapeshifters impersonating him before, and he's assuming that's what's happening. He's trying to save Max's life, not end it.
