In web novels, becoming a Great Old One at the start of the game could create a setting that was full of fantasy and powerful power. From the perspective of related concepts, the gods of the Old Ones often had abilities that were powerful beyond ordinary people's understanding, such as omniscience and omnipotence (although there might be situations like the omniscient demon that were limited by the omniscience contradiction). If one wanted to construct a plot of 'becoming a Great Old One at the beginning' in a web novel, it could be developed from the following aspects: 1. Ability Setting 1. The Great Old Ones usually had a unique appearance and terrifying abilities. For example, Sada Hegra had the appearance of a huge shell-like creature with long, multi-jointed feet, cylindrical tentacles, and a terrifying face. Yafumza looked like a cold, huge gray flame that would freeze everything it touched. Therefore, after the main character became a God of the Old Ones, he could have similar unique and powerful abilities, such as controlling natural elements, controlling the minds of living creatures, or distorting space. 2. Some of the Old Gods were related to time and space. For example, Avogomon was the incarnation of Yogg Sothoth, who was regarded as the God of Future and Time who knew all time and space. Then the protagonist could travel through time and space, foresee the future, or change the past. This could create a lot of suspense and reversal in the development of the plot. 2. World Setting 1. The worlds where the Old Gods lived were often mysterious, terrifying, and full of the unknown. There might be all kinds of mysterious creatures, ancient civilizations, and complex power relationships. For example, in the Cthulhu mythological system, the Great Old Ones had a complicated relationship with the Outer Gods and the Old Gods. After the main character becomes a God of the Old Ones, he has to explore his background (if he has a special background), his purpose, and how to get along with other factions in this world. 2. The existence of the Old Ones could cause turbulence in the world or break the balance. After the protagonist became a God of the Old Ones, he would have to face the challenges of the original Order Guardians of the world (similar to the Old Gods), or he would be used or controlled by some forces, thus starting a series of adventures and battles. Character growth and conflict 1. Even though the main character was the Great Old One at the start, it did not mean that the main character was omnipotent. It could be set that the main character did not have complete control over his abilities in the early stages of becoming a God of the Old Ones. He needed to gradually unlock his abilities or improve his ability to use them through constant adventures and experiences. 2. The conflicts with other characters could be varied. In addition to conflicts with other gods or mysterious creatures, there could also be conflicts with ordinary humans. For example, humans might try to fight against the protagonist out of fear or greed, or the protagonist might have conflicts with other evil forces in the process of protecting humans (for some special purpose). IV. The Story Themed 1. He could explore the theme of power and responsibility. After the main character became the God of the Old Ones, he had great power, but at the same time, he had to bear corresponding responsibilities, such as maintaining a certain balance in the world or protecting weak lives. 2. To explore the conflict between human nature (even the gods of the Old Ones may have residual human nature or emotions similar to human nature) and divinity. After the protagonist gained the great power of the Old Gods, how would he find a balance between maintaining his original self (if he had one) and adapting to his new divine identity?
