[QUOTE="FieserMoep, post: 7482217, member: 6919650"] If it is more than 5 gods I simply stop bothering. I even prefer 1 or 3 to that. Thing is, you can just give a single god more than one aspect and make him interesting, you don't have to split hairs and give names nobody even cares to remember anyway. If there are 20 gods I just strg+f the one that has the right aspect and ideology to suit the character I want to play and roll with it. If the DM wants to confront me with the other 19 I kinda always ask him what I am supposed to know about them anyway and its not like those gods even matter for 99% of the worlds they are supposed to be relevant too. "Oh... a drought... please *mumble mumble* send us your aid!" "Did you just pray to *mumble mumble* when this season its certainly *waffle waffles* domain to care for the crops?!" "Who here invoked the name of *waffle waffle*, the Arch-Nemesis of *mumbo jumbo*?! I shall smite ye!" "You are a servant of *mumbo jumbo*? That makes you a follower of the *woop woop* Pantheon! Commandment 34b-2 requires you to aid me with these Rats that have infested my Tavern Cellar!" "Fear not Fair Maiden, the righteous Servants of *woop woop* always lend their Aid! Unlike those treacherous followers of *weep weep*!" [/QUOTE]
