Nobody will take anything! One thing I'd advise: be careful with the depictions of abuse and "bad wiring." There's a lot there to understand, and being too casual about depicting people struggling with adversity as problematic can be rough for some readers!
I love god-based stuff (I am currently running an XD6 game for my after-school class in which the kids are playing a new crop of gods out to replace the old ones, who've become complacent and aren't serving their worshippers anymore). Good fun!

Oh absolutely! I never go with "inherent villainy," and agree there should always be a nuanced way of helping the audience understand how and why someone is doing something really problematic! I'm just always careful with mental health stuff - wanna be supportive. There's folks who know a lot more than I do about how to portray struggles with trauma in a respectful way (hence why a lot of folks get sensitivity readers).
Let me know if you have any questions - excited to see what you make!
