So as my characters rapidly approach 18th level, it's time to wrap up this campaign. I decided to use a tried and true high level scenario related to Rovagug's possible release.
The driving force of this plot is a custom Nascent Demon Lord, who has gone completely insane from his constant defeats in the Abyss, and his inability to achieve true divinity. His fractured but still capable mind has come to the conclusion that existence is cyclical, and if he is able to release Rovagug from his prison, the Rough Beast will annihilate all of existence, which will then be remade again in time, including this Nascent Demon Lord who hopes to be more powerful in the next existence.
Instead of directly disturbing the gods themselves and risking a sound and quick destruction, he's traveled to Golarion on the Material Plane to hide amongst the lives of mortals, this has the added affect of allowing them to end him, permanently.
He and what minions he can acquire travel to each center of religious worship across the world, and disguise themselves in forms from divine assistants, to simple knowledge-seeking curates. He'll delve deep into any vaults or libraries of un/holy texts that describe the nature of each goddess or god's involvement in the sealing of the Rough Beast.
The players feel they need to warn every goddess and god, (even the evil ones) which came as a surprise and doubled the number of churches they need to travel to and warn.
So, all that said, I have a few questions and I'd love some input from the community and directors if they care to take a stab at answering:
Do all of the gods participate in the jailing of the Rough Beast, or only the ones who were present for the sealing?
If so, does that include the newly ascended gods or gods who were at one time mortal, such as Norgober, Iomedae, Cayden, Zyphus, Urgathoa?
Any ideas or defined parts of the prison that could be researched, besides Asmodeus, Sarenrae, and Zon-Kuthon's? What should Irori's be for example?
Unlike a previous thread, I'm not asking how the prison is broken. Simply who should be warned of such a danger when the gods themselves are stuck behind all the red tape that prevents them from directly acting in these situations. (I'm looking at you Desna)
Also, I'd love to hear ideas for what each deity's seal should be, as per the third question, and I'll probably need about 9-12 of them for how many different ones the party will learn of in their race to stop the Demon.
