Gods and Godlike figures

I believe I have come up with a topic for my paper: Gods and Godlike figures in fantasy and mythology. Of course, this also applies to Monstrous Regiment. I think the dead god Nuggan was a really good touch to such a satirical book. Gods in fantasy tend to be such big, powerful beings that mere mortals cringe before them. Nuggan, on the other hand, is such a puny, abominable being that you can't help but laugh at him. I mean, who outlaws the color blue?

Nuggan sounds a lot like some kind of snack food. I consider worshipping snack foods to be an abomination.
