Now I don't remember any page reference, but I think that if you kill, say the god of a particular forest, either a replacement is made or other gods are promoted and one of them is replaced by a new god. Is this the case in canon? Or in anyone's games? And what bureau's in heaven or creation are responsible for all of this, and how is the new god made? Does someone order it done? Do the pattern spider's do it automatically? Where would the god appear? As you can see I'm fishing for ideas.
My PC's are due for a confrontation with Elder Oak, the god of those woods the Ten Tribes live in. I've portrayed him as rather egregiously corrupt and thought it might be cool if his replacement was kind and humble and ready to serve the solars. But then I also worry about setting the prescedent that the way to deal with unruly gods is by offing them and waiting for a more tractable one to replace him - but then I imagine I could
1- make some of the replacements only seem to be helpful
2- assert that new gods may have a full compliment of powers but that their lack of experience means they require centuries to get up to speed without intense micromanagement. To say nothing of their peers walking all over them.
Sorry, that was me thinking while I post. Â ops:
But any input would be appreciated.
