... for campaign purposes. How do you think that would enhance his powers as given in The Book of Vile Darkness or the Fiendish Codex?
More specifically, what do you think he would have done to get said godhood?

(If you're wondering why it says 'back' to lesser god, he was considered as such in 1st Edition AD&D).

Tough to say, because Graz'zt has specifically avoided obtaining godhood because he feels that the power it provides would not be worth the drawbacks and limitations that status would create for him. His children on the other hand, such as the demigod Iuz, can happily pursue their own cults and gain divinity while bein beholden to the whimsy of their father, which gets him all the benefits without being beholden to things on the prime material, mortal worship, clergy etc.

But if you're going to change Graz'zt's intentions and feelings towards godhood, you could probably have him obtain godhood by devouring his children and usurping their own godhood in the process.
