[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 6548745, member: 92511"] [B]23. "In the Shadow of the Divine."[/B] A band of cloud giants (maybe with a couple titans [empyreans] or a storm giant) has styled themselves as new "gods" in a secluded realm, where the local mortal races do worship them as such. Word has finally gotten beyond their secluded realm and, as does happen, the disenfranchised, the desperate and the wishful, pilgrims of various races, have begun to flock to this place to see the "New Gods" who actually appear and work their divine power before your very eyes. The established churches are...not happy to say the least and the PCs have been commissioned by one [or a council of several] of the established deity's temples to go check them out...and in the event they are charlatan demonic cultist powers, as undoubtedly they must be, eliminate them. The giants are sincerely trying to regain/retrieve their legendary titanic origins, and truly believe themselves to be new divinities and will act, and react on the part of their worshippers, as such. Now, if they are puppets of some greater thing [one of the empyreans is evil or a balor or some other servant of an evil/chaos deity looking to stir up trouble] or not, you'll have to come up with on your own.
