Does a character have to be the child of a god to be destined for greatness?
I personally prefer characters who rise from humble beginnings and make a difference through skill and determination. I'd much rather play a normal person than a "child of destiny born of a god, upon whom rests the fate of the world... No, the galaxy... Aw, hell, make it the UNIVERSE!!!!"
The best stories I have ever played or GMed were about individual characters living their lives and forging friendships. The "save the world" style campaigns have to keep spiraling out into bigger and bigger threats that eventually hold no meaning. "oh, we must save earth again today? Oh, all right..."
