Godling is a race in 4E, but as a concept it could work in any edition. Godlings are fragments of the essence of a slain God, reborn as humans. When Freedom92 asked about possible Godling PCs in his Blackmoor campaign, over at the Piazza, it got me thinking.
We know of two Gods who have been killed in Blackmoor's history. Temrin, the God of Time, killed by Thanatos is one. The other is Hadeen, God of the Peshwah. I think a character claiming to be born of the essence of one of these Gods could be a really interesting part of a campaign. The idea of a Peshwah Godling with origins tied to Hadeen could be especially interesting, perhaps turning into a kind of Prophet among that race.
With Temrin, I dont know. Would he be interested in fighting the cultists of Thanatos, or reviving the God that spawned him?
