I like all these answers, but really to me, it's putting way too much thought into it.
In my opinion, if done right, no amount of skill makes your character too skilled. It's all about balance. For every new bit of power you gain in the world, you need a weakness.Â
There are all of these super powerful things you could RP as, and sometimes the experience RPing those things can be wonderful, IF DONE WELL. Note I said well, and not correctly, as there are loads of ways to do it. But the RP of those powerful beings could bring alot to stories of others, and could bring about unique challenges of their own.
It all plays into balance. IF you wanna be a god among mortals, then you need to have flaws of some sort, no one is perfect. Even the myths of gods told about their negative qualities, like hubris. These are the kind of things that can lead to a David vs the Goliath kind of story, and can make an amazing story for people to watch and be involved in.
