Dead Gods

Nobody knows for certain how large the pantheon of gods and goddesses is – was. All they know is that gods fall from the crimson sky, crushing all beneath their vast density. The lay priests termed this Godfall.

Someone is murdering the gods and sending their holy corpses earthbound in a display of destructive mockery. The beings once thought immortal are, it turns out, just like you or I. So what happens when gods die?

New beliefs arise in their place. Cult leaders who see their chance to bend others to their will come out of the woodwork. They seek the remnants of the gods, relics borne from their celestial flesh, be those body parts, blessed tomes or the jewellery they wore the day they perished. For some, these relics have the power to attain godhood, while others plan to forge a weapon mighty enough to take on the remaining pantheon in Heaven.
