The Sin War books by Richard A. Knaak.
Read them, then make the mod mirror the books, you play as Uldyssian, with serry, mendeln, achilios.
It would start right as uldyssian makes his escape from Seram.
My idea for uldyssian would be to start him as barely able to use any powers at all, then use skill points to unlock new levels of power.
Now uldyssian will be basically a god by the end of the game so to make it anywhere near balanced he would need to have very low mana that would slowly recharge over time.
To go along with that godlike power there will need to be insanely massive mobs so he can't just exterminate everything on the battlefield in one twitch of his nose.
Think about when you leave the rogue camp, that area, filled to the brim with enemies, literally thousands.
The engine may not be able to handle that all at once, so to counteract that I thought maybe just exponentially increasing the spawn rate 2 screens away from the player, and the godlike uldyssian would need to kill a certain number to progress. (like that cave early in the game.)

Maybe I'm blowing smoke but I would genuinely love to see and play this, as I have no doubt many of the fans of the books would as well.
