comment
Celestial Worm is a fanfiction by ack1308, crossing Worm and the Celestial Wars series (by Karen Buckeridge). Janesha is a young celestial, born to someday become a goddess, who is meant to be headed home after a dispute with her uncle. But along the way, she stumbles across a new realm, one that intrigues and baffles her. Who set up all these superpowers? What were they thinking? And most importantly, will Earth Bet survive having a barely trained nascent goddess turn up and start fixing things?The story is available on FanFiction.Net (here), SpaceBattles.com (here), and Sufficient Velocity.com (here), and is complete.

Immortal Procreation Clause
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_1be36a63
comment
Immortal Procreation Clause: Janesha mentions that unless a powerbase gets involved, celestials breed very very slowly. First sex is almost guaranteed to produce offspring, but after that you might get one child every other millennium. This is another reason why all pantheons fear hybrids and work to exterminate them: hybrids are born on a mortal timescale, so some would-be conqueror could impregnate a thousand priestesses in a few years and have an army within a couple of decades.

I Owe You My Life: The only reason Janesha listens to Danny at all. He distracted a dangerous monster long enough for her to recover and kill it.

 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_2854e0dd
comment
Pegasus: In this setting, they are called mystallions, and are native to the realm of Mystal. Pegasus itself was a mystallion who was briefly loaned to a mortal. They are smart, opinionated and very protective of their riders. They can also fly stupidly fast, mainly because they are celestial creatures themselves.

Utopia Justifies the Means
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_45fe3a2e
comment
Utopia Justifies the Means: With phenomenal cosmic power but limited life experience, Janesha is inclined to create a paradise through overwhelming force and Mind Control, and Taylor gradually comes around toward agreeing with her. Especially once Taylor actually starts worshipping her, turning her into a full goddess but also causing their beliefs to influence each other's thinking.

Clap Your Hands If You Believe
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_4dbd3706
comment
Clap Your Hands If You Believe: A celestial who is worshipped by mortals gains whatever powers and abilities the mortals believe they have, this is known as the powerbase. This is counterbalanced by the thrall: a celestial also gains whatever weaknesses, compulsions, or flaws they are believed to have. In addition, an actively worshipped celestial is immutably convinced that their current powerbase and thrall is right and proper and the natural order of things, and will fight tooth and nail to preserve it even if it's objectively horrible. If a celestial is attuned to a realm, all mortal worshippers within the same realm count. If not, a worshipper has to be within about fifteen feet to have any effect. In the event of multiple contradictory beliefs, whatever has the most numbers wins out.

Brought Down to Badass
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_51a485d1
comment
Brought Down to Badass: Gods who leave their home realm (and their believers in that realm) revert to 'merely' being celestials in any other realm, stripped of all the powers that the belief grants them. (Note that celestials are still insanely powerful when compared to mere mortals, but are at a huge disadvantage when facing the gods of the realm they've entered).

comment
Godzilla Threshold: Calling in help from Janesha's family will fix whatever problem Earth Bet might face, but with a risk that they'll outright destroy the entire realm if they get upset or if a fight starts. When Janesha and Taylor get completely out of hand, Danny tries it anyway, praying to her uncle to come and save them.

The Only Believer
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_79bfd876
comment
The Only Believer: Taylor becomes that for Janesha for part of the story and then Danny worships Chance (Janesha's luck god uncle) for a brief time. It's a well known syndrome amongst established pantheons; since gods are shaped by the beliefs of their worshippers, having just one fanatic believer tends to make them powerful but unstable.

Hybrid Power
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_7e8a9164
comment
Hybrid Power: Celestials draw their divine power from mortal belief, and if they leave their realm they leave everything but their base celestial powers behind. Celestial-human hybrids, however, can believe in themselves and carry their powers with them wherever they go. Because of this, virtually all pantheons consider hybrids too dangerous to be left alive, and hunt them down and exterminate them.

Always a Bigger Fish: Janesha can bend reality in all manner of ways, but her family is vastly stronger than her, and there are beings who enforce divine laws and can call even them to heel.

Teleportation: All celestials can realm-step; this allows them to step 'up' into the celestial realm and 'down' again, anywhere else on a planet.

Mind Control
 Celestial Worm (Fanfic) / int_a19135a6
comment
Mind Control: Janesha considers "mind-bending" to be a perfectly normal way to treat mortals. She can read, edit, and erase memories, issue commands in a Compelling Voice, and generally make anyone do anything she wants. Taylor and Danny's insistence that she shouldn't is a constant source of aggravation to her.
