I quite like the idea that the 'true' gods (those not created by mortals or these gods, the gods that have always existed) have realised that the likelihood of several all powerful beings becoming extant seemingly simultaneously is highly unlikely. They have conclusion that one of them created the others and they react to this in different ways: paranoia, self delusion, egotism etc. On your travels you run into one of these gods, this is terribly uncommon as these gods are far more concerned with determining the one 'real' god than the affairs of mortals. Later, another of these gods comes to you to pump you for information on the first. To be visited by two gods is near unheard of in this age and so more gods visit you, believing you to be someone of importance. You of course are not, but perhaps you are. Is their prophesy self-fulfilling? Is one of them actually more powerful, or are they all equally powerful, or are none powerful anymore, or perhaps they aren't powerful but are a collection of self deluding mortals?
