The Demiurge is Dead! Long Live the Demiurge!

Clarkson, Glen gclarkson@FS.COM

I think despite the blunder by Target, I still want the Metropolis source book. No one tells me where to stick my Demiurge! The GM comes to a point where they need to decided, or choose not to decide, what happened to the Demiurge. I say "whack 'em" But that's just me. But, I'm also of the idea that the Demiurge is SO BIG that if it was dead, it would either A) take eons to finally die, and can go through the phases of death, or B) is dead, but still has little "echoes" of itself, which still leave physical or metaphysical signs behind. In my games, I try to not to let players know my thoughts on these things, and keep the players not knowing. Then I can do the "Its dead its dead its dead its dead...hey, how did that happen? Its dead." trick over and over, kind of "in the background" of my stories. (please bear with me, I've only done about 4 kinda stories, and only 2 have made any significant gains in their plot)
