[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7397145, member: 6801845"] There's very little written in 5E books about deities and their history in FR, which was kind of surprise. Corellon's entry is basically "god of elves". So the genocide thing comes from previous editions (and my old books are in storage at the moment) as does most lore about the gods. But not mentioning a particular animus against elves despite the fact that it was Corellon who took Gruumsh's eye, doesn't make it any better. Just that the cleric should also support murder of humans and dwarves in equal measure, and seek the downfall of civilization. That doesn't improve the situation. You may find it "interesting" to have someone play a PC who's the devout follower of a sociopathic anarchist who aggressively promotes killing members of the races of the rest of the party. I think unless the PC changes who they worship, it would inevitably lead to PVP or a PC leaving the group. Assuming of course that this is a heavy RP game. It sounds like it's not, and the OP is going to just let it slide for now which is fine. People play for different reasons, and have different expectations of the game. When I DM one of my expectations is that players don't play a jerk and don't play evil characters. That may not be your expectation, which is perfectly OK. Beyond that I can't think of anything else to add. [/QUOTE]
