Right. That's why I suggested a mix-n-match approach, with modifications to the myths. But clearly that's not an approach that inspires you, and that's cool. Good luck!

I think the point that some of us are making is just that a "default human pantheon" would look like a human pantheon that already historically exists in real world mythology. Such pantheons do reflect humanity because they were created by real humanity.

But they didn't even read off the license plate number. I mean, that could be anybody's gargantuan bronze Lenin head. Sheesh.

Because real world mythology was invented by actual humans, I might start by looking there. For example, among those listed in 5e, pretty much all the expected (non-monstrous) portfolios seem to be covered. Mix and match to include whatever domains you need, then change the names, symbology...

I really like the setting of A Thousand Thousand Islands and the Reach of the Roach God campaign. It's system-neutral fantasy based on south Asian mythology and folklore. The source material, writing, and illustration all make it a wonderfully evocative and unique world, at least to my experience.

That "skunk wave" combo would be particular fitting for special occasions.

Tbh, the regular media deserves blame, too, for treating ignorant opinion equal to fact and truth. In the last 30 or 40 years, they've given too much oxygen to utterly asinine ideas, and now many of those asinine ideas are normalized. And so here we are, looking forward to the 2025 we have...

The pesky sharks that keep appearing in my bathtub probably agree.

Congrats! Good luck with it.

That thread's been unocked! We can talk about it over there instead of here.

And it's a much more interesting article, too, imo.

Have you considered upgrading to a 1200 baud carrier pigeon?

Best. Romcom. Ever!

I asked myself the same question you likely have. But if you zoom in, you'll see that it is, in fact, not a beaver in an orange shirt working the backhoe.

The Star Wars Holiday Special.

Compromise? NEVER!!

Yeah, that's way too many extra magic item slots. So much for game balance!

The only long-overdue KS i've supported was Horizon Rising, a modest 2-week KS, funded Jan 2022, aimed to release Oct 2022. Last update was May 2023 and sounded like fulfillment was imminent, but then... complete radio silence. Rumor is the creator is sorting through some personal issues, but...
