Towards the very end of the 3.5 era, there was an excellent supplement featuring world-ending threats. Each Elder Evil was preceded by ominous and dangerous Signs that warned of the coming disaster, and I'm wondering how best to emulate those. The simplest and, I think, best way would be to simply use extremely wide-area Regional Effects that grow more powerful as the Sign progresses, but I wanted to see what others think.
The Plagues of Egypt work. You have there evil gods basically and as a sign of ones return swarms of Locus ravage the lands killing grass , farmland and cattle. Near the end the largest ocean turns blood red killing all aquatic animals Imagine the look when the party runs across the blood red ocean and a dead Kraken just laying on the beach. If some how they get through all that and all thoes evils The Tarrasque will show up Reason why would be I remember in older books The Tarrasque was said to be a manifestation of forgotten gods wrath so it would make sense if the world is going to end this thing pops up.
* reason for edit I had to do something real quick and didn't want to lose my train of thought
