[QUOTE="Kugar, post: 922925, member: 442"] Idea Time. 1) No matter what, killing a god can easily escalate into a divine free for all. As politics degrade into a series of assassinations attempts, Gelanna will become the scapegoat. [b]a) Punishment ala FR Time of Troubles.[/b] - Gelanna's divinity id ripped from her and as mortal descendent must perform penance designed to right the wrong of killing death and bring her closer to her charges. She flees to Tao for both help and protection. [b]b) Gelanna is imprisoned[/b] - Her demigods and celestials are taxed trying to fill in for her. Gelanna's mortal agents have to kick it up a notch, while at the same time losing their most powerful magics because only Gelanna herself could grant them. Tao is blessed with a fragment of her goddess's divinity and learns of a plot to destroy her imprisoned goddess. [b]c) Trial by mortal.[/b] Remember the Odyssey? Now imagine if your Gelanna came down to Tao herself and asked her to take up her banner, or else Nature would suffer. 2) Life is good. Gelanna is rewarded. [b]a) She need a bigger staff.[/b] Tao is chosen as a prospect to become a demigod and must undergo testing. [b]b) Rebuild the Order of the Horn[/b] It is found out that the Order of the Horn is prophesized to play a critical role in the upcoming crisis and Gelanna charges Tao with the task of building a mighty army. [b]c) Perversions of nature[/b] With more power comes more knowledge and Gelanna tells Tao there are ancient wards on the (enter big evil thing of you choice, maybe even the Worms) that were damaged by the fall. When she made them she stipulated a set on conditions that only Tao can fulfill be met before they can be visited. 3) Other – [b]Imbindarla[/b] Imbindarla cults attempt to assassinate Tao, and she feels the suffering of others close to the Goddess as they are successfully assassinated, captured, and/or tortured. Tao may feel the need to protect others, or se may chose to try to rescue the imprisoned people/souls. That's What I came up with for now :) Kugar [/QUOTE]
