Stealing Vecna's Godhood

Wouldn't it be great if there was an adventure where the party could knock Vecna out of godhood?

I wonder what that would be like...

My thoughts - such an adventure would feature:

- Planar raid on a skull-shaped citadel claimed by Vecna.
- Dealings with angels (time to deal with THAT), yugoloths (you're not welcome in the game) and maybe Orcus.
- An infiltrator into the party.
- A way for the party to THINK they succeeded but actually fail if they aren't careful about the Secrets/Deception aspect of Vecna (but warning about this from an angel beforehand).
 


Oh, that's good... something like, the first part of the campaign is getting something to convince Olidammara to help, the second is doing the deed with some kind of help from Olidammara. That could really work.
 

I ran a similar adventure as an epic Halloween game a few years back. As I recall it revolved around Vecna imprisoning Ao in order to steal his Overgod powers, and ended up with confrontations (not all combat) with Demogorgon, Orcus, Grazz't, Pazuzu, and Jesus of Earth - who incidentally ended up decapitated and killed by the party but later was saved from the party by the party who had kept his (first) head to keep a bargain with Pazuzu. It's a bit complicated...

Anyhow, it made for a great epic adventure and some outstanding magical combats.
