Pretty much one I made up. One of the main plots in my story is that an
ancient race of gods who had long been imprisioned has finally been
freed. In GURPS terms they would be the fathers of the Sidhe and other
gods.

The God (actually Goddess) that the players just killed was Kali. I was
pretty surprised that the players managed to kill her this early in the
game, but that's what happens when someone with supernatural strength
gets a good roll vs an Utter Wall. She had an Utter Wall of 30 too :(

Just bits from Infinite worlds. Hmm. I really should buy Cabal.

I agree. I'm thinking that if allowed at all, the penalties would be so
great that only a circle of mages could cast it. Maybe something like
x10 the normal penalties would be good.
