Fallen Power

You were once a god who was betrayed by their subjects and cast into mortal form. You were a Prince of Hell, defeated by adventurers and bound to the weak body of a human. A dragon, morphed into powerlessness. An angel or demon, permanently entering the material plane, to better further your goals. No matter your past, you once were respected, feared, worshiped, even divine. Now, though, you find yourself, inadvertently or not, willingly or not, in a far less powerful form. 

Skill Proficiencies: Religion, plus your choice of one from Arcana, History, and Intimidation

Languages: Two of your choice (if possible, one or both should align with the source of your former power. Neither should be antithetical to your source.)

Equipment: A set of fine clothes, a symbol of your former power, and a belt pouch containing 15 gp.

Suggested Characteristics

Fallen powers are defined by their lack of power. Willingly or not, they no longer possess the incredible strength they once wielded. Central to their character is how this weakness affects them. 

d8	Personality Trait
1	I constantly wax lyrical about whatever possessions or power I once had.
2	I held all the power and knowledge in the world—or I like to boast as such.
3	I am constantly lost in my own thoughts, reminiscing of the past.
4	I am overjoyed at interacting with mortals, finding myself one of them.
5	I am not used to mortal characteristics and idiosyncrasies, and so their ways sometimes confuse me.
6	I am disgusted by mortals, finding them and their culture dirty, unpalatable, and overall revolting.
7	I would do anything to get my power back.
8	I do not like remembering my time of power, instead preferring a mortal lifestyle.

d6	Ideal
1	Fame. The path to strength and power is through people knowing of you. (Neutral)
2	Aid. As a mortal myself, I am uniquely positioned to aid those who once worshiped me. (Good)
3	Order. I once followed a code of law during my time of power, and that won't stop even when I'm weak. (Lawful)
4	Freedom. My new form, though different, is a path to true freedom, unshackled by the burdens of power or fame. (Chaotic)
5	Strength. I achieved power once, and I'll do it again, regardless of how much I have to destroy. (Evil)
6	Change. I am a mortal now, not a god or anyone of power, and it's time myself and the world recognize that. (Any)

d6	Bond
1	I am still connected to my once-worshipers, through magical or spiritual bonds.
2	I have an item of power I must not lose at any cost.
3	I willingly left or was forcibly taken from the love of my life, and I'll do anything to get back to her.
4	I was close with a mortal worshiper, and now that I am mortal myself, I can connect with them on a deeper level.
5	A great event happened for me to lose my powers, and my life's goal is to find a way to reverse it.
6	I gave away my power for others to use. I'd like for them to use it well.

d6	Flaw
1	I believe myself above all mortals, even when the events of the world constantly prove me wrong.
2	I relied on raw strength to solve any problem, and now that I can't, I often don't know what to do.
3	I'm so used to everyone obeying me that I don't know how to react to rejection or "no."
4	I overlook everyday affairs in favor of grand, overarching schemes, often to my detriment.
5	Nobody held me in check before, so I believe my actions don't have consequences.
6	I don't know how to stand up for myself with this massive loss of strength, believing myself incessantly weak no matter what I do.
