[QUOTE="arscott, post: 3196687, member: 17969"] I'm just the opposite. Maybe I'm wrong for blaming the drow on Lolth, but given that I dislike them for their matriarchy and their spider fetish, I have a feeling that she's partially to blame. I've got better things to say about Yondalla, though. I thing she's one of the few decent gods in the entire pantheon--She's basically the only god that 75% of your world's inhabitants would actually worship. The core pantheon includes a god for paladins, a god for druids, and a god for wizards. But who is the god for farmers? Ehlonna, Pelor, or Obad-Hai control the natural forces that just as often work [I]against[/I] the farmer, but the only god that encourages his bounty is Yondalla. Who is the god for housewives? Beyond Yondalla, well, your next best choice is probably Lolth. The core pantheon includes gods for heroes. It includes gods for villians. It includes three seperate gods for necromancers. But It doesn't include any gods for the common man: Gods of agriculture, of fertility, of wisdom, of love, or of art. Bard is a core class and it doesn't include a god of music. Yondalla is one of the few gods that actually matter to those outside of the adventuring circle. Hopefully, she stays up on the big list for a while yet. [/QUOTE]
