The Stats for a God (Cayden Cailean)

[Lincoln Hills]

For an alternate option, you could stat Cayden as a 1st-level human commoner... who is subject to true resurrection as an immediate action whenever he dies, and whose new body appears at a random nearby location.

Cayden: Wooo! You've killed me 34,302 times! Aren't you the big man! Hic!
Wizard: Shut up!
Cayden: Make me!

I believe Zeus ate Metis the Titaness, his first wife, because it had been prophesied that her son with him (who'd be born after a daughter) would be more powerful than him. Eventually, their daughter, Athene, sprang fully grown from a split in his skull made by Hephaestus. (That son was never conceived.)

you are correct, my bad. my research-fu was bad. but doesn't really change my meaning. a better way could have been concocted.

I'm sure Lightning Dude is just waiting for your suggestions? After all it worked out pretty decent. The successor god was never born, and he got a strong ally in Athena.
