Wonder Woman not only believes in the Olympian pantheon, not only has she actually met them herself, they also gave her her powers.She also comes from a culture that existed before monotheism was thought of. I'm not suggesting that it's inappropriate for a comic character to be Christian, Jewish or Muslim; I'm saying that it's inconceivable that Wonder Woman is!If your player's PC were to suddenly spout ideas of a single God that is 'real' while the ones that actually do stuff are not, why would anyone else in the world believe him?In the Forgotten Realms there is meant to be a God beyond the gods, but he doesn't get worshipped and I don't believe that most mortals have even heard of the concept.I would view such a sudden statement in a typical medieval-type fantasy world in the same way I would view a PC suddenly making a working fission reactor.</blockquote>
