No big deal. What Linaniil did once in her life, every churchgoing Christian can do once a week. If eating dead gods is indeed the source of her power, I can only conclude she'd be no match for my old, pious granny.
I'm suddenly curious as to how many times you have to go have communion to eat the bodyweight of an adult male...
Doing some quick calculations it would be at least 300,000 wafers, which at one a day would take 833 years - even your pious gran won't be anywhere near that. Most likely she'll have eaten about half a kilo of godflesh (50 times a year for 50 years at 0.22 grams per wafer), which is a bit less than a human hand. In comparison Linaniil absorbed a lot more god energy.
Every good nutritionist knows it's way better to eat 0.22 grams of vitamins 50 times/year for 50 years than 80 kgs in one take.
(Plus, granma had me eat her awful, overcooked pasta, and not even Linaniil could have convinced me to do that. I don't need any other proof that granma was the most badass of the two.)

He'll find a way! We're talking about the guy who released an evil demigod in castle greyhawks basement just because "good was too powerful"
He's the kind of guy to go to absolute extreme measures just to accomplish his goals in "keeping balance". Now that I think about it, I have a feeling Mordenkainen would awaken Atamathone and then just leave and let him ravage the lands because the people in Maj'Eyal are "prospering too much"
I'm just gonna bring up my old standby for situations like these.
"Kimball" Kinnison, Gery Lensman of the Galactic Patrol, would beat all of these people at the same time. A lot can be said for having the authority needed to call in a entire space fleet, planets used as projectiles, planetary sized balls of antimatter, sun beams (that is the entire power of a sun focused into a single laser), and a weapon powerful to eradicate several parsecs of space.
As for Jaumito's granny, she's eating the Crhistain god, who is all powerful. Linaniil ate a god who managed to die, so he's clearly not all that powerful. Since a portion of infinity is still infinity... Granny Jaumito wins.
I'm not crying. I'm offering a sacrifice to DarkGod in hopes he'll show favor to me.

I believe that Jesus was rather famous for dying. One of his things, y'know.

Indeed, but chronologically (according to Christian theology), he led the first communion himself while still alive, then he's been dead for about 3 days, then he came back and has been out of Death's reach ever since - and only then was the rite of communion established by the Church.
So wafer-eating Christians never really got a chance to eat 'dead' Jesus - they've only been offered the 'alive' and 'resurrected' flavors.
"Some reason" being that alive and resurrected mean he's alive while you eat him. Big difference between eating a corpse and eating a living, breathing, screaming person. For one, the neighbors ask a lot more questions in the latter case, and then someone calls the cops, and then you have to get a different name, move to a new place, launder a bit of cash to futz the trail up...
Just in general people doin't like eating live things, human or no.

Goodness. A lot of heated discussion about power levels in this topic.
Suppose it's about time I made this public...
There. The official power chart for Tales of Maj'Eyal, datamined during the original conceptualisation of ToME back in 1974.
Hopefully this concise guide will allow power level willy-waggling contests to become a little more friendly around here
I'm interested in this long story involving Norgos and The Master. Other than that, never have I seen a more proffesional, clear, concise, and all around elegantly crafted chart.

This chart needs an update. Melinda now gets free resurrects/heals that deal 10k blight damage to every foe in sight - she clearly belongs to the top tier now.
