I'd like to start with saying that I know this would never become a real thing... unfortunately.
My gaming table came up with the idea of a level 20 adventure where pc's could do the Starstone Challenge. The challenge should be a near impossible task that kills 99.9 percent of characters (but make it a fun challenge still) so that only like one in a thousand PFS characters would actually have the chance to become a minor god of Golarion.
Obviously you wouldn't be able to play the character ever again, but it would make an interesting award for really dedicated players who put in the effort to get their characters through enough scenarios to play Eyes of the Ten and then even further through the high-level sanctioned modules (From my understanding, you can get a PFS character up to around level 16 or so through playing approved modules).
It's just a fun little idea that we played with a bit but I wonder what some of you other players think?

That made me laugh.
It would be a great idea. Until someone
1. Reads the challenge
2. Breaks down exactly what is needed to win
3. GM credits up a character to the right level so they have maximum resources without expenditures
4. Succeeds in a way that is completely against the spirit of the task, even if they did it RAW.
Fun.

@Pirate Rob: Very similar ideas but I was thinking more along the lines that it would be a definitive "end of your character" adventure. Players going into it would be told that it's impossible and almost certain death (but in an interesting/fun way).
Maybe characters could get some kind of campaign points and if they get enough they get nominated for divinity but the final say still rests with the campaign coordinators. And even if your character does become a minor god, you only get to contribute the backstory and personality and no longer have control over the character (the only way I could see it becoming canon).
