I thought the whole dark-theme of ToB was good. You are trying to stem the tide of fate, which would wash the world with blood and birth a new Bhaal. You are either the instrament of this darkening of the world, or you are the sole hope against the darkness.
The battles, the mass death, the general darkness: I always thought that was part of the point of ToB. More problem-solving might be fun, but let's face it: the typical demi-god's response to a problem is to obliterate it.
