It's funny, you'd think that was true, but-
It also has the power of Rebirth apparently.

Probably something to do with necromancy
Can't say that I like the concept of trading votes in a quest like this. Ideally people would just support acts that they think would fit best in the world and if someone really wants their act to get in the turn they can just suborn it or use a moment of glory or take feedback and campaign for it.
Feels metagamey to me especially if you just don't support any acts except the ones that vote trade for you to practically guarantee 4 extra votes for your act.

You gave me idea. What about put in the list rule about 'staying in character', when doing something about acts.
It would become the Divine Tapestry, made as a channel for the light of First Sun and the Power of the Three as they weave and enforce the rules of reality.
So the main difference would be that all gods are automatically below the Three in terms of authority `but in exchange and the thread becomes the basis of its own form of every form of reality warping whether it be Divine or magic in general. Probably stronger too as the Three would include it with negotiations with the other Primordials so it could be fueled by all of them instead of just 3.
She will probably form a celestial bureaucracy around it.
I could do it earlier chronologically. Probably make it so that the gods appeared because of the Thread.
I guess I would apply a 1 rank discount on creating gods of certain power. So a Base Act with a god based on the Divine Thread would create something on the power of a Lesser Act, and a Greater Act produce a goddess that would normally require a cosmic act.

Authored Act:
[X] Blood God
God appears as a skinless, one-eyed giant whose nature is associated with the mysteries of blood, pain, and devouring. Despite his terrifying appearance, mortals are drawn to him like moths to a flame. After all, those who, even for a moment, can satisfy his hunger (through an extremely painful sacrifice of the reasonable) will receive the greatest honor to drink a drop of his blood. Then there are two outcomes in the first mortal, lost in pain and pleasure, will become a shadow of himself, an ugly creature that only wants to drink blood and hurt others. In the second variant, you will experience the apotheosis by becoming the ideal version of yourself, having received some of the powers from your new god (blood manipulation, resistance to pain and the ability to send it to others, and most importantly, the opportunity to receive some of the powers of the devoured victim). As a cherry on the cake, such lucky ones can also command the losers who failed their apotheosis. The only negative is that from now on you are fanatically loyal to the Blood God but that's not a problem right?

Authored Act:
[X] Pyralis's Gift of Understanding
Imprisoned within the pit, Pyralis at first struggled but physical freedom was out of her reach, she was left with just her rage, sorrow, memories, and time. Time to think, time to processes, and processes is what she did as she waited. Her status as the first of the primordials, and her curious and seeking nature granted her a great many insights into all of what touched the first age, studied and pondered for untold time for it was not yet a true concept. She had watched creatures, she had created her own, she had watch them mutilated and changed, and just as she was to avenge them she was consumed and imprisoned within the pit. She could not leave, her ability to touch the world was limited, and so she sang.
Pyralis sang a song of knowledge, of sorrow, of rage, of hope, and of community. One that would find its away free of the pit and suffused with some of her power find its message in an unlikely place, a community of descendants of the first snails ones certainly larger than goblins but no where near the size of their progenitor's. These beings that were thought simple, but held moments of memory within their minds the song awakened into a crescendo of memory and movement, the fall of their progenitor to the hands of Grobbus. The song awakened them, danced through their forms as they danced with it, their beings shifting so that they could better gather the knowledge, better dance, and add their own sounds and stories to the melody.
Their bodies stretched like great serpents as they rose with strength from simply sliding along her whole abdomen, the song sprouted two simple limbs arms to manipulate the world to grasp and observe its textures, but it was their shells that were most changed, and most multiplied. Their dorsal shells curled into many separate chambers, an armor along their backs hardy and flexible, a great cranial bowl of twisted knowledge protecting a growing pool of knowledge about their "head," and two shells grew along their new arms each unique and variable, most of the first generation were shaped into great horns and trumpets, while others were twisted spears and shields as to defend each other and add percussion to the song. As generation passed they would learn to grow these two arm-shells to their own limbs to the wishes and personality of the individual, the individual Canti-Snails, or Song-Touched. A sentient and sapient species that would find their own place in the world and gather their own songs and stories in the ages now and to come.

Pyralis Forges The Godflames
Pyralis was many things, first to form and watch creation, seeker of knowledge and secrets, progenitor of dragons, and enemy to the vile Grobbus. In her great existence she studied and observed all that was, discovering many things and suffusing those varied understandings into her being.
With the dawn of congruent time, with the mutilation of her children Pyralis began to understand loss, rage filled her and her mind focused on her hate, if it were not for the Devourer hate would still subsume her. But in her imprisonment forced to wait and ponder she came to understand the three thoughts floating in the Sea of Light that were once no more than a quaint discovery. Combining that knowledge with the trials and tribulations learned through her observations of her own creations existence, and the communities and interactions between each being that once lived within the Sea of Light, be it dragon, plasmoid, snail, rain whale, or even lowly vile goblins, an epiphany was made.
In imprisonment there was loneliness, and that community was what was paramount, a buffer from suffering, a dampener of pain, emotions that she did not wish to propagate. And so she spun her understandings, and hopes, and wishes into motes of spirit and power, dubbed Godflames, though their shape and form were as mutable as hers own. And she used her might to send them out into existence, where they could find purchase and touch the lives of the beings that live and will live.
Godflames are unique bundles of knowledge and power, straddled with bindings and requirements to be realized. To bond with a Godflame is become a God, to gain aspects of Pyralis' understanding and power enough to shape reality and even thought to your whims as long as it was knowledge contained within the flame. But it came at a cost, to bear even a single Godflame would require some sense of magnanimity, a wish to aid a community or peoples, for without support from life, or worship the flame would die out in its host and be reborn elsewhere.

If you want, you can vote for my blood god act. The first clear antagonist in the nascent setting, who I hope will be able to stir up the setting by creating many threats and conflicts by the mere fact of its existence. Plus he has a lot of room for improvement especially his cult which will become apparent as the quest perspective shifts to more local stuff.
You could vote for the swarm to add more of a echo system to the world as well as grow the earth star from there life cycle, as well as over time they could evolve to be something more
A few questions.
1. How does the cult work? The only mortals we got are dragons and goblins which don't seem like they would be tempted. Is it mind control?
2. What would oppose him. It doesn't seem like any of the current or arriving gods are particularly interested in the current mortals other then those that are trapped.
You should vote for my Broken God act because it synergizes well with your act and gives a somehwhat benevolent god to counteract Gobbus and the general cruelty of this world. It's one of the few gods that governs a more narrow sphere than elemental things like earth or water or life. Also because it's one vote away from passing.
