Death of the Old Gods	comment	A common fantasy trope where the gods that once ruled the world are dying or fading away. Most commonly, this may take the form of polytheistic pagan gods are slowly giving way to a single unified Christian god (or the nearest fictional approximation), a titanomachy where an elder, primordial pantheon gives way to the new polytheistic deities, or perhaps of the old order giving way to no gods at all, which is not unheard of. Normally their departure is a result of people no longer believing in them, although it's not unknown for them to simply lose interest in the affairs of mortals, or to die out for other reasons. In other cases, the interloper takes their place after beating or even killing their predecessors in a fight. The fading gods and their worshipers are normally portrayed sympathetically, but there are normally underlying messages that their time is up and they should accept their fates. Modernized God is one way they can escape this fate, though The Modern Gods might have something to say about it. Contrast GÃ¶tterdÃ¤mmerung, where the gods go out with a bang instead of a whimper. See also the trope just called The Old Gods, which is roughly for gods who went through either this or that trope in the backstory. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

When Gabriel kills Pan in self defence during a test of his worthiness, the last of the gods has died. Ironically, Pan was an ally of capital-G God, so when Zobek's narration praises Gabriel for killing him, it foreshadows Zobek's true nature.

Death of the Old Gods / int_1aacbbc9	comment	In Dragon Age the Old Gods of the Tevinter Imperium (AKA Dragons) were struck down by the Maker. Most of the world now worships the Maker and his prophet Andraste, and the Old Gods slumber beneath the Earth until they're awoken, one at a time, to lead the corrupted darkspawn in a Blight. Then the Grey Wardens finish them off for good. This trope is played with in that worship of the Maker actually preceded the religion of the Old Gods. The Maker's prophet Andraste didn't introduce the concept of the Maker to Thedas so much as re-introduce it. At least that's what the Chantry claims. The elves' gods were tricked by a being known as Fen'Harel that trapped both them and their mysterious enemies beyond the reach of their followers, presumably keeping them from helping the Elves when their ancient empire was destroyed. The third game explores this in depth; basically they were always false gods and the trap was the end to a devastating civil war which pretty much finished off their civilization. The real story overlaps with The Magic Goes Away.

Death of the Old Gods / int_1beda93b	comment	In Sluggy Freelance (in "Holidays Wars"), there's a brief mention of the ancient Greek pantheon having existed in the past but apparently having somehow fallen, at least out of power. Zeus is said to have foreseen a time when he would no longer have the power to interfere and for that reason having created the Deus Ex Ovum to act as a magic Reset Button for certain matters. There are no signs of the pantheon being active in the present. The Mohkadun arc introduced an entire pantheon of ancient gods opposed to the demon K'z'k, who is itself a destroyer god who destroys the universe in cycles, only for it to be created again. In modern Sluggy the gods of Mohkadun are all dead, transformed or amnesiac, and K'z'k has been splintered into tiny fragments of itself.

Death of the Old Gods / int_291e9857	comment	Dark Souls: The Age of Fire is ending, and the ruling deities are about to go with it. Presumably, some other race of supreme beings will follow, just as the current gods followed the dragons that came before them. You get to choose to put the Age of Fire on magical life support by sacrificing yourself, or you can choose to let it end so that the Age of Dark can begin, which may or may not be better for humanity in the long run anyway. By the third game, you get to see the consequences of this in action. Gwyn, Nito and the Witch of Izalith are barely remembered as old gods and no one knows what happened to Gwynevere. Of Gwyn's pantheon, only three gods remain. Gwyndolin is devoured by Aldrich and you're just too late to save him, the Nameless King is heavily implied to be Gwyn's firstborn, and you can fight him in a clash for the ages, and in the DLC we meet Gwyn's last child, Filianore, who doesn't even talk before a bright flash transports you forward in time until she's nothing but a dried husk. The final boss is the living embodiment of everyone who has ever Linked the Fire, including Gwyn himself, and when you defeat it, you get the sense that even if you Link the Fire yourself, there's very, very little time left. If you take the right steps, you can allow the last embers to fade, letting the old world finally meet its long-delayed end and hopefully allowing a new one to someday spark into life.

Lir and Nuada have both Faded, and for the most part the Tuatha de Danann stay under the hills or in the Blessed Isles since the Olympians took over. The clurichaun states that it is even worse over in England where the Olympians were running around, with Robin Goodfellow not being heard from in centuries and possibly Fading entirely. The Berber gods of northern Africa are likewise mentioned to have mostly Faded, and the Mesopotamian gods have somehow been contained by a human society.

Death of the Old Gods / int_2f203125	comment	In the Shin Megami Tensei series, YHVH is the Big Bad, who intentionally tries to destroy all other gods so only he will be worshipped. However, YHVH is (according to Word of God) not the real cause behind this (his evil is a symptom, not the disease). Though there are Gods that serve YHVH willingly and aid him. Thor and several Hindu gods have played for the Law team at one point or another. Maybe they just went with the times? Gods Need Prayer Badly in the Mega Ten Multiverse. YHVH's not the only cause of their woes. Shin Megami Tensei V deals with this topic: God Is Dead, most of the other gods are making their own power plays to become the new Top God, and it's inevitable that at least some of them will die trying. The hidden "Create a World for Humanity Alone" ending has the Nahobino get straight to the point and wipe them all out.

Death of the Old Gods / int_31aedabc	comment	Comprehensively, horrifyingly subverted in the Cthulhu Mythos. The Great Old Ones have died/vanished long ago, and nothing really stepped in the power vacuum left... But soon the stars shall be Right again, and they shall rise once more and all of Man's works shall be torn tasunder as anthills under the tread of giants. And there's nobody else to really stop them from coming back. Or so their worshippers would have you believe, anyway. In practice, just how many of the various sanity-blasting horrors of the Mythos even "vanished" in the first place is debatable, considering how easy it seems to be at times for people who puzzle out the correct rituals from demented rantings in old crumbling books to still get in touch with them... and yet, strangely enough, so far the End of the World as We Know It hasn't come. In the original works by Lovecraft they explicitly are not gods, but rather alien beings whose knowledge of the physical world seem like magic to ignorant primitives like us.

Death of the Old Gods / int_38c57aa2	comment	Eberron has a more historical version, due to its ambiguity over whether most of its gods even exist - the Sovereign Host has, in syncretic fashion, absorbed most of the "old gods" of other religions, save one goblinoid deity, who apparently had no place in the Sovereign Host's cosmology and who has been Unpersoned to the greatest degree possible. The Silver Flame religion believes this is going to happen, with the Flame's worship gradually taking over Khorvaire and supplanting the Sovereign Host, but Flame worship is only really dominant in Thrane and the other countries have been slow to convert, especially after some Thranic atrocities during the Last War.

Death of the Old Gods / int_41b0198a	comment	The Dresden Files: Although supernatural beings lurk under every bridge in the Dresdenverse, actual gods except Odin are conspicuous by their absence. It's implied in one side story that they're not dead, but have stepped aside voluntarily due to some kind of arrangement made roughly 2,000 years ago. Given the timing and the Christian God's obsession with human free will in this setting, there's plenty of room for fan theories there. Changes reveals some of the Old Gods, specifically Mayincatec ones, to have actually been very powerful, very old vampires of the Red Court, called the Lords of Outer Night. However, from the same book there is indication - or at least speculation on Dresden's part - that the gods really did exist, and the Red Court leadership stole their names. Considering that Mayan mythology includes a god of blood, death, and sacrifice called Camazotz who greatly resembles a Red Court vampire, and is mentioned as having many children, this theory may have legs. Cold Days reveals even more. Some entities can hold different mantles or masks as times changes. Odin may not worshipped much anymore, but he still gains much power from his role as Santa. There are a whole bunch of ancient deities so dangerous to the world that an Ancient Tradition of Venatori has been struggling for centuries to erase every trace of their presence, thus preventing mortals from believing in them and allowing them to exist. This invoked example is appropriately known as the "Oblivion War". It is mentioned that the Gods do not actually die, however, they require mortal faith to connect to the mortal world-lack of it does not kill them, merely render them unable to touch the mortal plane. Although it does raise the question, if they can't interact with the world and its people unless people believe in them, then how could they inspire belief if they can't interact with people.

Death of the Old Gods / int_43576f5	comment	An episode of Supernatural has two pagan gods eating humans around the Christmas season and one of them reflects on how Jesus is the big new thing. "Hammer of the Gods" has a bunch of the "old gods" telling Sam and Dean to deal with Lucifer because they don't want the world to end when it's no longer theirs. By the end of the episode, most of them are dead. Like the earlier pagan gods, they seem to subsist on human flesh where once they subsisted on faith. Despite the fact that Ganesh and Kali are among their numbers, so apparently, India must've converted to Christianity at some point in the Supernatural-verse. Mind you, the same happens to the Christian archangels with God leaving in the eleventh season.

Both sides are also threatened by Senna, who has plans for godhood too.

Death of the Old Gods / int_5908ee91	comment	In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the Thalmor are deliberately trying to starve Talos of worship to unmake him. Talos (also known as Ysmir among the Nords) is a reasonably ancient and important god in the Nordic pantheon, but also is Tiber Septim, a member of the Nine Divines and effectively the embodiment of the Empirenote the Nine Divines themselves being a Composite Character pantheon of Mer and Nordic gods who were deemed the least controversial members of their respective pantheons to be considered acceptable to the founders of the Alessian Empire in the 1st Era. However, Talos is also comprised of Zurin Arctus (a heroic Imperial battlemage from the 2nd Era) and Wulfharth, the legendary Nord king who restored the old Nord pantheon and also acted as mortal champion of Shor in life. In addition, Tiber Septim is considered the second reincarnation of Shor himself. The Stormcloaks, who war with the Empire and the Thalmor for the freedom to worship Talos, emphasize the Shor and Wulfharth aspects of him, and this could be argued to be upholding the tenets of the old Nord pantheon and worshipping the most important deity in it.

After The Beast is slain, they awaken from the Beast's curse to find that humanity 'slightly' worships them less or differently. In response they declare war on humanity and wreak havoc on Wraeclast and especially Oriath, which is eaten alive. One of the gods helps the Exile kill most of them by absorbing their Divinity after their physical forms are beaten into submission, the remainder Screw This, I'm Outta Here. And then they're replaced by the New Gods, former inter-dimensional adventurers who went Drunk with Power and absorbed enough power to become Physical God. Who are also killed.

Death of the Old Gods / int_76e7de99	comment	In the Forgotten Realms, the gods of Netheril, such as Amauntor and Moander, were replaced by the current human pantheon following Netheril's fall. Not really, but it is a convenient simplification (it's not an orderly process of old pantheon dies, new pantheon replaces them, more a gradual process where gods die and gods rise, and sometimes pantheons merge and the gods with the same portfolio have to fight it out for dominance. Also, Amaunator more gradually faded away than actually died, while Moander stuck around until fairly recently). Jergal, the Netherilian God of Death note Which is honestly understating the case. At the time, he had under his dominion all of tyranny, murder, and judgment of the afterlife, which pretty much covers all the supply and demand of the mortal life cycle. only grew more and more powerful as time went on even after Netheril's fall, with much of Faerun caught in a kind of gloomy ennui because of his influence. A trio of powerful adventurers worked up the gall to challenge him and were stunned when he volunteered to abdicate his godhood willingly. He even stepped in when said adventurers were near to falling upon themselves over which of them would be the new god, equitably dividing his dominions between them and keeping only for himself the role of ensuring the orderly transition into death, basically becoming the patron of morticians and foe of all undead (not for any moralistic reasons, but because they mess with his meticulously planned system). Since then, he has dwindled in status to a demigod and served as the seneschal to a series of successive death gods who, because of either skewed priorities, disinterest, or bad judgment, have not done the job nearly as well as he, and though he has sworn to serve and is content with his diminished role, he is not at all pleased to see his former realm in, as he sees it, a state of continued chaos.

The old gods are gradually forced away from earth by the expansion of the universe but Hephaestus designed the Abrahamic faiths around a non-existent god so all the worship could be redirected to a big battery. They didn't so much remove the old gods as outlast them, most of the angels were originally one of the old gods. The planet of Arr-Kelaan qualifies too, but just barely.

The greater populace is being swept up by the Panarii religion; a deliberate Christianity likeness centered around the teachings of a Jesus-figure elf called Nasrudin. Ironically the Christianity-like religion is secretly being run by the agents of its banished devil-figure, and was never supposed to be a religion anyway, whereas the Old Gods are still alive and able to give blessings (stat-boosts) to those who worship at their altars. There's even a side-quest involving a complex ritual of offerings that let the protagonist become a god themselves.

Death of the Old Gods / int_9d47a2a2	comment	In A Song of Ice and Fire, the Faith of the Seven, which resembles the Catholic Church, has largely replaced the Old Gods, who were worshiped by the original inhabitants of the continent. The only worshipers left are up north, the Northerners and the tribes beyond the Wall, as well as a number of tribes in The Vale who never assimilated. Later in the series, the religion of R'hllor, a militant, monotheistic religion from the East, begins to take a foothold. The Iron Islands follows the Drowned God; they are the only ones to do so and this has resulted in their culture being very different from the rest of Westeros. It's important to note that the Old Gods' faith was never organized, and lacks priests, temples, scriptures, and so on. This probably contributed to the faith's decline. Ironically, the First Men originally had several named gods before the Pact with the Children. Part of the Pact was abandoning their "old gods" for the ones worshipped by the Children. The only regions where this didn't happen were the Iron Islands, the Frozen Shore, and the Sisters islands, all regions where weirwoods don't grow. People outside the North don't seem to reject the existence of The Old Gods, as evidenced by saying like "by the old gods and the new." The current generation of the Starks worship both sets of gods. Later books reveal that there are some fundamentalists of the Faith of the Seven who see alternate religions like the Old Gods and the Drowned God as a threat (though they're more focused on the growing worship of R'hllor) and want to convert the whole continent. A few regions had exclusive faiths that completely disappeared after the Andal invasion. These include the faiths of the Storm God (enemy of the Drowned God), the faiths of the Rhoynar (now worshipped only by a small group of Dornish called the Orphans of the Greenblood), and the gods of the Sisters Islands. Essos is immeasurably more diverse, although there are also many extinct religions. Vaes Dothrak has a huge collection of god statues and icons from various cities they've looted over the centuries, many of which have no current worshippers. The Valyrians had their own religion, which went extinct along with their entire nation after the Doom of Valyria. The only evidence of their existence was the names of the three dragons that Aegon I and his sisters rode to conquer Westeros: Balerion, Vhagar, and Meraxes. They were named after ancient Valyrian gods.

Death of the Old Gods / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Warhammer 40,000: Most of the old gods of the Eldar were eaten by Slaanesh, and only a few of them are left: Khaine escaped Slaanesh by shattering himself into hundreds of pieces and became part of the Infinity Circuits of the Craftworlds; Cegorach The Laughing God hid in the Webway; and Isha is now imprisoned by Nurgle, who uses her as a guinea pig to test his new plagues. The whole theme of the awesome Graham McNeill short story The Last Church. It's about what is implied to be the last Christian church on Earth, run by an old and lonely priest. A mysterious stranger walks in and begins having a debate about religion and morality. (The figure believes that religion is evil and should be abolished by this "Emperor" guy, and the old priest argues that religion can do good and this "Emperor" guy really should stop forcing everybody to do what he says.) Here's the kicker: the stranger is the Emperor, and he's come to burn the church down with a band of twisted prototype Space Marines, but he offers the old priest a chance to recant his beliefs. The priest refuses, giving the Emperor a scathing speech pointing out his hypocrisy and coming failures, and then calmly walks into his burning church and perishes with his faith. As the Emperor and the marines walk away, they do so unaware that a clock on the wall has begun to ring its bell, one that was prophesized to only begin ringing when the end of humanity came...

Death of the Old Gods / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm plays with this - like Marvel, the older pantheons were forced by the Celestials to step aside and not overtly interfere with human development, though here there is the caveat that this is until humanity grows up (which it is now doing, with references made to Thor's line from The Avengers about mankind being ready for a higher form of war). Like The Dresden Files, gods need at least some belief/awareness that they exist to have a foothold on Earth and exert their power there (which is used to explain the power disparity between Thor and Loki in the early MCU and their more comics derived versions here). Most of them are suggested not to care all that much. However, with the events of Book 1, which unleashed Chthon, the Elder God of Chaos, on the world, the rise of the Dark Phoenix, and the threat of Thanos, the collected pantheons are starting to pay attention again. In other words, the Old Gods Stepped Aside, but increasingly, the Old Gods Are Back. And they aren't alone...

Death of the Old Gods / int_cfd860dd	comment	The backstory of the Nasuverse explains this is how the Age of Gods ended. Early in humanity's history, there were many gods born from the beliefs of humanity that certain natural phenomena were the acts or incarnations of gods. As humanity evolved and began to understand and master the world their belief in the gods weakened. By the time of the modern era, the Age of Gods has long since ended and the dominant supernatural authority is Gaia/Alaya. The gods still technically exist, but in a realm called the "Reverse Side of the World", almost completely cut off from modern humanity. It has been stated there are three key periods responsible for their decline and eventual vanishing from Earth. Fate/Extella covers the first one. Around 12,000 BC, Sefar, the White Titan invaded Earth, killing numerous gods and cowing other pantheons until she is defeated by the wielder of "the holy sword forged from the core of the planet". Gilgamesh was created by the ancient gods of Mesopotamia who foresaw this possible end. He was intended to act as a keystone binding the fates of God and man together. When he rebelled against that role and chose to rule humanity for his own reasons in 2200 BC, it marked the second key end as the "separation". The final end of the gods where they had absolutely no way to make a comeback has been mentioned in Fate/Grand Order to be around 700 BC, but it has yet to be revealed what it actually entailed beyond it being called the "opportunity".

However, from the same book there is indication - or at least speculation on Dresden's part - that the gods really did exist, and the Red Court leadership stole their names. Considering that Mayan mythology includes a god of blood, death, and sacrifice called Camazotz who greatly resembles a Red Court vampire, and is mentioned as having many children, this theory may have legs.

It is explicitly stated that Sidhe draw power from such worship, and are therefore forbidden to set themselves up as gods as part of the treaty with Jefferson.

Death of the Old Gods / int_e6758d93	comment	Partially averted in Scion, where All Myths Are True and each newly risen pantheon gets the divine equivalent of a fruit basket from the old pantheons. The reality of the Abrahamic religions are left up to the Storyteller, but the Scion Companion mentions a certain "Sumerian storm God" becoming the One and only God of the Israeli pantheon, then Roman pantheon, and so on; recruiting various pagan Scions as angels and saints as Christianity and Islam spread across the globe. Most of the old gods don't really care about having worshipers, since Fate loves to screw with them via those links. As does the Order of Divine Glory, missionaries of the One God who use fatebinding to place agents in foreign pantheons. They're responsible for co-opting pagan rituals to fit in with a monotheist agenda, such as altering Christmas to replace the Winter Solstice. Also, having too high of a Legend Rating forces someone out of the physical universe, which could explain how the One God seems absent. Some fans go for YHWH as being driven insane by three different religions and countless splinter versions of them all fighting over what he really wants. Jesus and the Saints locked him away for his safety and that of others. They would help him heal and recover but The End of the World as We Know It has put a damper on things. Other fans have made stats for YHWH and Jesus as leaders of just another pantheon, albeit an extremely successful one. Fitting with this trope is that the Abrahamic pantheon outperforms of all others, so instead of an actual family, they constantly recruit scions (as angels or saints) to handle their vast hordes of worshippers.

After the Cataclysm, a world-shattering disaster visited on the world by the gods as punishment for a variety of sins, humanity decides to find itself a new pantheon, and the dwarves and elves seem to be less interested in worship generally speaking. It's later revealed, however, that the old gods were around all along. It was people's loss of faith in them that made them believe the old gods had departed. And, interestingly, it winds up being the goddess of evil who becomes active again in the world first. Then they left again, and some schmuck calling himself the One God showed up and started the War of Souls. Turns out the old gods didn't really leave, the world was stolen from them by said goddess of evil, who had disguised herself as the One God.

Death of the Old Gods / int_f3e1f424	comment	The BBC version of the Arthurian legends, Merlin, can't seem to be able to make its mind up about the "Old Religion" (the pagan religion that existed before Christianity and, despite the show's claims, did not involve priestesses using a pygmy hydra to control peoples' minds): after three years of portraying these old ways as almost uniformly evil, Series 4 begins with the royal court of Camelot celebrating the feast of Samhain, briefly mentions Ostara and ends as they prepare to celebrate Beltane. All of which are fire festivals celebrated by the aforementioned "Old Religion". To confuse matters further, King Arthur (in this same series) "swears to God" at least twice. From what we got at the Samhain feast, the festivals aren't religious. While we live in a world where there's no proof of an afterlife, in their world the veil between the living world and the dead world growing thinner is a fact and if you sever it you can walk up to the veil and see it for yourself. It's less worshiping a god and more of an acknowledgement of a natural event, like a birthday or a harvest festival.

Death of the Old Gods / int_fc077a54	comment	In Total War: Attila, every campaign is about the rise of Christianity and the decline of pagan faiths: In the main campaign, Greco-Roman Paganism has been usurped by Christianity as the religion of the Roman Empire, and it is very slowly but surely losing its following. Likewise, most of the Germanic tribes almost always abandon Germanic Paganism and adopt Christianity sooner or later. Celtic Paganism is likewise under threat in Britain, though with the Celtic kingdoms' corner position and Roman Britain on the verge of collapse, it has a much better chance of survival. Though this can be averted (The Romans can convert cities to Greco-Roman Paganism with Theaters, while the Germanic and Celtic tribes can conquer lands and build temples). In The Last Roman, Greco-Roman Paganism is almost finished off and Germanic Paganism is not even present (all the Germanic tribes present had converted to Christianity by this point). And you can't even convert as Theaters no longer convert people to Greco-Roman Paganism. In Age of Charlemagne, Greco-Roman Paganism and Celtic Paganism have both been completely eradicated. Germanic Paganism (now just called "paganism") is on the decline as the Frankish Kingdom invades Saxony and forces them to accept Christianity.

Death of the Old Gods / int_fccc35cc	comment	Unreformed pagans in Crusader Kings II are more easily converted by Abrahamic missionaries, have a harder time of winning converts of their own from those religions, and are very prone to splintering amongst themselves. If no single leader arises to reform a given pagan faith into an organized religion, it's quite likely that that faith will wither away under the pressure of holy wars and missionaries. The Zoroastrians are in a similar boat. While it is an organized religion and doesn't have as many problems converting conquered provinces, the few tiny Zoroastrian nations left are two tiny counts and one duchy, surrounded by conquest happy pagans and infidel hating Muslims.
