For me, it really depends on the role of the gods in your campaign. I've run games where there was a kind and forgiving All-Father sort of god, and others where the gods were just powerful spellcasters from another universe. Very different results.I'd really ask the player what they were attempting to accomplish here, since letting something like this occur is a big change for the game. Does the player want to eventually become a paladin or cleric? If that's the case, asking for help in a case like this would make for an excellent reason to change their direction.Are they angrily raging at an uncaring universe like Liam Neeson's character in The Grey? Well, perhaps this is a great way to teach a lesson about how the universe really doesn't care.Is this just some random action from the player? Better move on in that case.So I guess I'm saying that it should definitely be possible, but that depends on the campaign, what the player is trying to do, and how you as a GM feel your universe should act.</blockquote>
