What is a false god in your work?

To be honest I don't actually have an example of a false god in the setting, however considering the nature of the deities in the current iteration of the setting, it might not even be technically be possible for there to be something like a false god.

Gods on Izmea are technically beings called Numen, that people began to worship, however Numen are effectively something that you might describe as just AI. Artificial entities created by prior civilization to as part of large utopian project, that rebelled against theri creators.

Moreover, while that is not something that is widely known, many of the major religions in the setting, are actually non-deistic, they acknowledge the existence of the gods but don't actively worship them.

Essentially the only consistent requirement to be a god in the setting, is for someone else to worship you as such.
