I was about to suggest, if you wanted yourself to be a bit more used to the place, "settled", as it were, you could be in the jail Vay's about to be thrown into. The cell across, rather than the same cell (small town, they only have two cells anyway).
I would prefer that you choose one of the setting's deities as a patron, actually. The world and the self-aware NPC's can't really fall any further under the 'weird' category.
As for killing a "god" before level 30... I need to remind you, that the only deity who's statted out so far is Tiamat. All the others are demon or devil lords, like Graz'zt or Yeenoghu.
...The PC's max level is 30, while all of them stay a rather amusing 32+. And these are all technically "minor" deities or "extremely powerful" infernals. One can only imagine what Major-influence deities would be like...
