I have been running games since late 1979, and over the course of many years I have used various gods, either of my own creation or with my own spin. Moving into the realm of Dungeon Crawl Classics, the path of least resistance was to simply use the gods in the core rulebook.
But those old gods refused to go away. They showed up in The Falcate Idol, The Crimson Void, The Invisible Man Has Risen from the Grave, and others. I am 59 as I write this, and I have begun the task of pulling over four decades of role- playing game materials into a cohesive whole. The goal is to present a world others may wish to run games in. To create something which will, I hope, live on long after I am gone.
So, I have been working on these gods, both because Player Characters need them in order to define their relationship to the divine, and also because these beings tend to anchor towns, villages, and whole societies.
This work is far from finished. You will see references to patron write-ups which do not yet exist, for instance, as well as unique spells. I hope it gives you some useful material though, and whets your appetite for things to come. I am hoping to have a completed book by late 2026. As you can see, the scope of the work is massive.
