#1 todesherr May 10, 2008 21:57:10	I have a feeling that many of the gods will be said to have always been just saints of the major gods; still worse, I fear that many of the lesser gods will be restrospectively relegated to 'aspects' of greater gods and had been mistakenly thought of as separate deities; some examples. Auril> aspect of Talos Deneir> aspect of Oghma Liira> aspect of Sune Loviator> aspect of Bane Talona> aspect of Shar And why not? Grummsh was always just Talos in disguise, right? Maybe just another crackpot theory....but given the current trends, who knows?

Maybe just another crackpot theory....but given the current trends, who knows? -Well I do know that in Richard Baker's new novel Swordmage that Show Amuator(sp) has supplanted Lathander. The God is in his day time aspect. The new faith respects the old faith. Its was starting to be forshadowed in 3.5.
#3 SmartPaladin May 10, 2008 22:33:51	Loviator> aspect of Bane Why? What would make anyone think this was a good idea? Loviator is far more kick ass then Bane could ever be. Not only that, but she's Ilmater's lover! Okay, maybe I'm the only one crazy enough to see Ilmater and Loviator together, but atleast when 4.0 comes up, there should be no reason why Ilmater and Loviator shouldn't come out as being lovers. They're a perfect couple!
#4 the_shaman May 10, 2008 23:38:47	You mean bickering, b...hing and having nearly nothing altogether as far as worldview is concerned? Perfect isn't quite the word that comes to mind. I can give you "usual" though As for Loviatar and Bane... tell me you didn't write that that. Loviatar may be snazzy, but when Big B kicks an ass, it stays kicked.

I can give you "usual" though I don't know... Ilmater loves pain, alittle to much, and Loviatar loves to dish it out. Sounds like true love to me. :P As for Loviatar and Bane... tell me you didn't write that that. Loviatar may be snazzy, but when Big B kicks an ass, it stays kicked. Why yes, yes I did write that. Granted, that could have something to do with the Avatar series, and Bane wasn't really that "awesome" of a deity... Now Mask on the other hand...
#6 Khaelieth May 11, 2008 7:05:50	My brain's going fuzzy from 4ed.
#7 Stigger May 11, 2008 8:19:51	My brain says to just ignore it and do whatever the hell I want...
#8 draco_spirit May 11, 2008 12:00:43	My brain says to just ignore it and do whatever the hell I want... *nods nods*
#9 lord_karsus May 11, 2008 16:26:52	I have a feeling that many of the gods will be said to have always been just saints of the major gods -Yes, we know this already. It's been established fact for quite some time now.
#10 rinonalyrna_fathomlin May 11, 2008 17:40:47	Also, remember that there are going to be greater gods, lesser gods, and exachs. It's not like every god that isn't a greater god is going to wind up as an exarch.
#11 GreenKnight May 11, 2008 19:23:40	I don't remember where it was said, but if I remember right there's going to be about 15-20 Greater Gods, 15-20 Lesser Gods, and the rest will be Demigods/Exarchs.
#12 SmartPaladin May 11, 2008 20:34:58	I don't remember where it was said, but if I remember right there's going to be about 15-20 Greater Gods, 15-20 Lesser Gods, and the rest will be Demigods/Exarchs. And knowing my luck, not only will Hoar be a Demigod/Exarch, which is what he was in 3.x anyway, but he'll also being under Shar's thumb. Lord will I be ticked if it turns out that way...
#13 GreenKnight May 11, 2008 20:52:54	I'm hoping Hoar will move into the House of the Triad, myself.
#14 lord_karsus May 11, 2008 21:13:38	I don't remember where it was said, but if I remember right there's going to be about 15-20 Greater Gods, 15-20 Lesser Gods, and the rest will be Demigods/Exarchs. -The 15-20 Greater Deities, I also recall. The 15-20 Lesser Deities I don't, though.
#15 GreenKnight May 11, 2008 23:31:44	-The 15-20 Greater Deities, I also recall. The 15-20 Lesser Deities I don't, though. Here's the post. "We think there are about 15-20 greater gods, a like number of lesser gods, and the rest of the figures in the pantheon are probably demigods."
#16 lord_karsus May 11, 2008 23:42:33	-I wasn't doubting you, I was just saying.
#17 GreenKnight May 12, 2008 0:07:17	Yeah I know. I just like showing off my impressive Search-Fu at every opportunity.
#18 lord_karsus May 12, 2008 0:08:13	-Well, good job there. Who're you trying to impress, eh?
#19 GreenKnight May 12, 2008 0:12:09	Myself, mostly. Have I mentioned that I'm an egomaniac? ;)
#20 lord_karsus May 12, 2008 0:16:03	-Ah, no, no I did not know that. I thought maybe there was a GreenMaiden, or something to that effect. ;)
#21 GreenKnight May 12, 2008 0:25:01	-Ah, no, no I did not know that. I thought maybe there was a GreenMaiden, or something to that effect. ;) Oh, don't even mention that ! We had this thing going where she was supposed to pretend to seduce a knight, to test his virtue. She wasn't supposed to go all the way, though. She'd try to seduce him, and if he gave in, she was supposed to come up with some excuse not to consummate things. Then I'd cut off his head. Least that's how things were SUPPOSED to work, until the last time. That guzzling disease ridden ! And you know what burns me? Despite that, the judge STILL gave her 50% of all my property, along with alimony, too. WHAT... THE... HELL?!? !!!!
#22 lord_karsus May 12, 2008 0:39:51	-See, that's what happens when Tyr is not around to stop Shar from whispering mean things in Hoar's ear.
#23 SmartPaladin May 12, 2008 3:08:17	-See, that's what happens when Tyr is not around to stop Shar from whispering mean things in Hoar's ear. How ya figure? Even if Shar was whispering things in Hoar's ear, he'd have still been all over what happened to GreenKnight.
#24 lord_karsus May 12, 2008 11:15:15	How ya figure? Even if Shar was whispering things in Hoar's ear, he'd have still been all over what happened to GreenKnight. -Sounds like something Hoar would do.

That's entrapment!
#26 Stigger May 12, 2008 13:29:46	If you're engaging in things like decapitation, somehow I suspect that a silly little thing like entrapment is going to be much of an issue. ;)
#27 SmartPaladin May 12, 2008 16:05:29	Oh, don't even mention that ! We had this thing going where she was supposed to pretend to seduce a knight, to test his virtue.

Despite that, the judge STILL gave her 50% of all my property, along with alimony, too. WHAT... THE... HELL?!? !!!! Then again, rereading about it, I think Hoar already dealt with the problem. It started off with them trying to trick the knight, and then kill him. Yet it blew up in GreenKnight's face... Yeah, I think I'd call that Poetic.
#28 Stigger May 12, 2008 16:33:51	So not touching that...
#29 SmartPaladin May 12, 2008 17:51:54	So not touching that... That's okay, I'm insane. So I'll probably poke it all day. :P
#30 Stigger May 13, 2008 1:45:47	Just remember to document it and make copies of said so we have some evidence when you turn up headless and in the dales with a big Z on your chest... :D

Sir....Gawain And is it just me or do you bear a striking resemblance to Sean Connery? :D
#32 Khaelieth May 13, 2008 12:03:33	"i'm sir Galahad! The Chaste!" "i'm Zoot. Just Zoot." Castle Anthrax ftw.
#33 SmartPaladin May 13, 2008 12:43:41	"i'm sir Galahad! The Chaste!" "i'm Zoot. Just Zoot." Castle Anthrax ftw. lol, I loved that movie. :P
#34 todesherr May 13, 2008 21:02:29	Highjacked!
#35 Khaelieth May 13, 2008 21:12:58	lol, I loved that movie. :P Life of Brian was best tbh.
#36 SmartPaladin May 13, 2008 22:21:24	Life of Brian was best tbh. I missed that one. My choices was Play D&D, or watch Life of Brian. I went with D&D. I was a Human Paladin, in a party full of Elves Rangers... I stuck out like a sore thumb. I did however Tank nicely. :P Highjacked! Why yes, as a matter of fact it has been.
#37 Khaelieth May 14, 2008 6:22:45	Always wanted to have an unladen swallow riddle in my D&D games=(
#38 GreenKnight May 15, 2008 0:57:39	Then again, rereading about it, I think Hoar already dealt with the problem. It started off with them trying to trick the knight, and then kill him. Yet it blew up in GreenKnight's face... Yeah, I think I'd call that Poetic. Actually, I think we were doing Hoar's work, here. The only ones who got decapitated were the ones who weren't as virtuous as they made out to be. Essentially it was a glorified medieval sting operation. The knights who were virtuous, however, were spared, and learned a little something about themselves in the process. It was wholly beneficial... unless they turned out to be scumbags, in which case they got their heads chopped off. Two words for you Greenknight. Sir....Gawain Yeah, he's one of my success stories. And is it just me or do you bear a striking resemblance to Sean Connery? Shocking. Positively shocking.
#39 Khaelieth May 15, 2008 8:16:03	GreenKnight doesn't have an eastern Scots accent, i believe?;p
#40 Keryth May 15, 2008 10:40:28	Actually, I was making a reference ot a rather obscure movie where Sean Connery played the Green Knight and it involved Sir Gawain. Don;t remmeber much of it as Is aw it once on HBO A LONG time ago.

#42 Khaelieth May 15, 2008 15:38:36	Ah, kk. But Sean Connery as the Green Knight still probably couldn't pull off anything but a Scots accent.

Despite that, the judge STILL gave her 50% of all my property, along with alimony, too. WHAT... THE... HELL?!? !!!! There's a GOOD reason why the 'Revenge God' is named Hoar, after all. ;)
#44 Khaelieth May 15, 2008 17:38:17	My dad caught me and my brother talking about Calishites and Hoar. He ****** himself;p Edit: Bloody Hell! Why can't i write that!? That's not even a swear word! He p-i-s-s-e-d himself.
#45 SmartPaladin May 15, 2008 19:15:33	There's a GOOD reason why the 'Revenge God' is named Hoar, after all. ;) Maybe he should go back to being Assuran... No, wait... If they are going to rename Aasimar because somepeople can't say it right, then Hoar will probably get a name change as well... He won't be Assuran, he won't be Hoar, he'll be _____. My dad caught me and my brother talking about Calishites and Hoar. He ****** himself;p Edit: Bloody Hell! Why can't i write that!? That's not even a swear word! He p-i-s-s-e-d himself. Was it in mirth? :P

He won't be Assuran, he won't be Hoar, he'll be _____. -The deity formerly known as Assuran/Hoar. -Or, maybe he'll just be
#47 markustay63 May 15, 2008 23:43:20	Maybe we'll get an Amalgam of the two... And they'll call him "Ass-Hoar". :D
#48 lord_karsus May 16, 2008 0:08:40	-I'm not particularly sure what type of emoticon I should use in response to that.
#49 Stigger May 16, 2008 1:35:30	is the emoticon I shall choose for a response.
#50 SmartPaladin May 16, 2008 1:49:53	Maybe we'll get an Amalgam of the two... And they'll call him "Ass-Hoar". :D Remind me to hit you for that one. Hard.
