That's interesting but in my setting there's only the gods and that's it, nothing is supernatural that doesn't have their uttermost source in them. And when you have something like the God of Physical (as in, atoms combining into molecules) Phenomenons it's hard to remove yourself from them completely. That's part of why he's very angry, but since anger is also the domain of another god, he's trying to keep it in check. Except there's also a god of balance and neutrality so he can't even lay very still in a room meditating.
The idea I have is that he's manually turning the dials based on the day he's having and the temptations he experiences. If he gives in to a great buffet, he turns the Hunger Dial up, and the next day he eats frugally and turn it down. And if later that week he wants to eat a buffet again he saves up by not giving into his hunger early on so he has a "stock" to go through. He can't get them all but he can sort of... circle around them so they don't catch up without getting in each other's way. Like you need to actually spin the plate to keep it on the stick.
