[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5323244, member: 92511"] Ok, well cursed with a disformity is certainly something. And glad to hear the alignment was changed. That, again presuming he worshipped a neutral deity, ought to get him off the "spells for him" list of that god and force him to find a darker one. The thing for YOUR character, assuming you don't want to have an alignment change, is that you have a couple of ways to go. YOu can take the "revenge" road and go for the gusto with "vengence." These are most likely going to be "not so nice" deities, if not outright evil. Converting to worship them would entail...well, turning to the dark side for lack of a better phrase. OR, you could go the "high road" and be spurred on by a search/demand for "justice" or "judgement" and/or victory against your foe. These would tend to be the more "good guy" divinities. Problem here is, if you are solely fueled/obsessed with vengence the god/goddess is likely going to notice sooner or later and you may find yourself bereft of their aid....just depends on how your DM plays his/her gods. Anywho, here's who turns up on a Wikipedia search for Forgotten Realms deities: [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beshaba"]Beshaba[/URL]: Goddess of random mischief, misfortune, bad luck, accidents (sounds like this guy could have a *wink, wink* "accident."
