It's often a useful exercise to play with your pantheon a bit. Flip the gods alignments, flip their genders, randomize their parentages and marriages, imagine what they are like as the sole major god of a great empire, or when their only remaining worshippers are a handful of people fleeing a world ending disaster, or how they would go about joining the pantheon of some culture on the other side of the world - because those are the kinds of things that *happen* to the myths of real world gods and it can generate some useful ideas for quirky little myths and subcults.
