Everyone else has already played that Scenario, but you haven't, so they have to pretend they don't know what happened.

26 After the Ball of Risqué the only way to make things right was the Gap.

29 - The Gap started because an upstart wizard accidentally started a fire in the library of the Akashic Record.

30. It was a legal action by Asmodeus - he placed an embargo on everyone's memories so they couldn't interfere with the case.


It was too problematic.


37) The Moral Guardians finally escaped from Bill and Ted's time machine, took one look at Golarion, and said.....surprisingly unprintable things.

38) The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny.

39) It got caught in an MLP shipping-pair flame-war.

It's okay when they say that stuff, they are the moral authority.

40.) Rovagug got out of his prison and heard about this other God trying to steal his schtick of destroying everything. When he went to investigate, he got swallowed up by a black hole and died. The paradox of a God of destruction being destroyed broke reality for a little while.


Rovagug, meet Azathoth. Azathoth, meet snack. *burp*

46) "Golarion" never existed in the first place, and was a massive plot by the Lizard People who live on the Sun to cover up the existence of Fire Cancer, which has been killing off people on Golarion for millenia, such as the Darklight Sisterhood and Paladins of Asmodeus.

Very good, you caught my cleverly disguised joke ;-p


47. First use of the Drift Drive involved the use of Imaginary Numbers.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

48. So THAT'S where I put the Sphere of Annhilation!

49. As it turns out, everyone was so busy with Rovagug they forgot Lavos' species was there too. Understandably, no god was a fan of its spawn going anywhere else.

50. Gee, hypothetical Absalom architect, maybe turning the Starstone, source of divinity, into a lighthouse was a bad plan?


(from a thread on rpg.net)
51) It was an orangutan. They're the devil once they've grabbed you by the foot.

52) Cayden Cailean lost it in a poker game.

How many times do I have to tell people that it was an accident! And who are you calling an "upstart"?!


Starfinder Superscriber

53 - We can't have nice things.


48. Min-Maxers achieved a critical mass.

54) Someone left it in reach of a kender and then turned their back on it for more than 3 seconds.

55) When the gods realized their were kender on Golarion, they smote the planet so hard it permanently damaged the space-time continuum. It was the only way to be sure.

57) The prototype for drift technology was the infinite improbability drive. On first startup, it turned Golarion into a blue whale, and all history dating back 1000 years as a potted plant whose only thought was 'oh no, not again.'

So the pilot was a two-faced three-armed man that stole my girl at a party last year?

58.) Golarian was the site of a typical Rick and Morty adventure.


59) Rovagug was about to escape and the gods had Achacek (or however you spell the Mantis God's name) assassinate him. He got a little carried away.

Achaekek can't assassinate gods. It's the reason why the Red Mantis doesn't assassinate monarchs, they see as symbolic of that.

Congratulations, you made me search my library for Ultimate Faiths.

Achaekek DOES not directly strike against the gods... Achaekek DOES not turn his claws against his divine sisters and brothers,

Achaekek DOES not attack gods but he CAN. (I am using Caps for emphasis because I am on my phone and can't bold/italicise) Achaekek could decide that he is going to kill Rovagug or even that Rovagug doesn't count as a god, but as some mythic beast.

60) A level 20 mesmerist with 10 mythic tiers convinced Achaekek that Rovagug wasn't a god and to kill him. Things got out of hand.


(another from rpg.net)
61) The Gods lost the planet to a Goblin in a game of dice. The Gods do NOT want to admit this to anybody.

62) The Vindicators destroyed Golarian to make sure that the villain of the week did not escape.

Fortunately, his clerics are hard at work rolling sticky balls around everywhere hoping to collect enough random debris to form a suitable, if cow heavy, replacement.
