then Great Gods can die/go away/become reduced. It is rare, and when they do, they usually leave traces, but it can happen. I imagine that Vadrus was a Great God, and he's mostly gone. Valind could easily be an aspect that is now "stand alone", and Gargarth most likely was a sub-cult (part of Vadrus's warband). Also reduced from Great God would be Heler, who at one point had multiple aspects (ruler, sailor, warrior, fisherman, etc) and lead a people who were fighting the Vingkotlings and doing pretty well, but now is just a Big God. Both of these gods could still be Great Gods in corners of the world, but I doubt it. They both seem like "also rans" to me.
Cross posted because this is more GD than HQ-RPG.
