Ra did it because they were afraid she'd not stop before humanity was wiped out, and then they'd have no believers at all.

So, no, it wasn't intended to be funny.

Still, Jones drunk is a funny thought.

The whole Sekhmet-Hathor angle is interesting, at least to me. I always thought that Jones, while the most powerful of the Court, wasn't anywhere near Coyote in power level.

If she IS a Goddess, the scales are more balanced than I had originally assumed.

WOOF!

If she was some sort of goddess, why would she be so heavy? Wouldn't a goddess weigh whatever she wanted to weigh?

Maybe she knows Andrew Hussie is into fat chicks.

Almost, but not quite:

Is Jones on the same power tier as Coyote?

no

Um, "not on the same teir" doesn't specify higher or lower.

I was wondering if that meant Jones might be more powerful, until I scrolled down some and saw:

Who would win in a fight between Coyote and Jones?

Coyote

Combat ability isn't quite the same thing as power tier, though.

Coyote could be the Batman of the supernatural world.

^ I thought the same thing, but slightly further down:

Who is more powerful, Coyote or Jones?

That was the most hilarious exchange I've seen in a while that wasn't actually in a work of fiction (and thus planned). "I thought the same thing, but slightly further down :"

Ugh. The more people argue that Annie HAS to be a phoenix, the more I'll view it as a cop-out if she is.

Being a phoenix doesn't mean "Isn't exactly Human" to me. That would be not human. I doubt we'll be able to guess what exactly she is and I'll be surprised if we find out by next Monday and don't get sidetracked before revealing what she is.

Okay. Fire elemental. I'll take that over a phoenix any day.

She could still arguably be a phoenix.

I'm guessing that a deity on Coyote's level would know a phoenix (being globe-spanning and super powerful) if he saw one. All he can say is that he "suspects". A phoenix was too blasted obvious, anyway.

Honestly, I think I would have been happier with "phoenix". "Fire elemental" is far too Gary Gygax for my taste.

The crown reminds me of Hellboy. Anung un rama.

Fire elemental is still generic enough for magic to happen.

ps. gdi typing while drinking without a desk is hard i forgot about this.

Okay, Tim, roll d20 plus your CHA modifier to see if you charm the fire elemental into sleeping with you.
