[QUOTE="Style, post: 1680806, member: 21072"] Izandor is the light of heaven itself and falls to earth when God falls into madness. God is unable to reconcile the thoughtless acts of his most favoured children (humans) with the divinity he used to create them. He cannot understand how he could have created something so vile and forgets how to love mortals. This frgments God, causing the Godmsite and giving birth to Izandor, who falls to earth. God in heaven is now blind, robbed of his light. Izandor, god on the earth, seeks to set right what went wrong by eradicating humanity. In his shattered madness he believes that this will allow him to be whole again and return to the heavens. However, neither God nor Izandor have omniscience any more, and neither truly know how this will turn out. Your epic can play out with this as the backdrop or as the central tale. Build tales centered around discovery at first - possibly the PCs are able to learn something that both God and Izandor have now forgotten - and about the nature of faith and the churches of the world. Present various competing factions, each trying to spin events to suit themselves. The churches would split loosely into those who embrace the new order and those who espouse the old. Wizardry and science would polarise or go underground. An age of religious darkness begins. Allow the PCs to align themselves with one faction or the other and your are ready to work your way towards an endgame. And what better endgame than deicide? [/QUOTE]
