[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7777278, member: 23751"] Um, again, no. Being a Mary Sue does not make you all powerful. It just makes you charmed, and Larloch's entire write up is charmed writing by a guy who likes to make Mary Sue NPCs. Vecna is far more powerful than he is, despite Larloch's Mary Sue status. None of this makes gods weaker than liches. This is bass ackwards. The very fact that Vecna could make it into Sigil, a place where even greater gods cannot get into, made him more powerful than the vast majority of greater gods. Further, Sigil rejects gods of even greater god status, so Vecna was contending with that at the same time as those heroes came upon him. In order to take out a god, mortals typically have to have some special means. Whether it's an artifact, the Time of Troubles, a prophecy that gives them the ability, mistletoe in the case of Baldur, or what have you. Otherwise, they get squashed. [/QUOTE]
