In FR, what sort of character doesn't pick some patron god, if only to avoid the WotF? What sort of loon actively denies the gods' very existence, what with them romping about Faerun every decade or so?
I'm curious, both about the OP's player's character, and about others.
Denial might take the form of denying their divinity. I.e., they are powerful beings but not gods. See: Mystara.
