[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5326465, member: 92511"] Well, how the gods act and what the deities expect of you is really entirely up to the DM. In my experience, a god is not going to give a damn if you "promise xyz if you help me." The demi-god, maaaaayyyybe. As I said earlier, he might give you some added attention...cuz he's a demi-god=has less worshippers, so he has that kinda time to give personally. But what you would have to "do" for them (other than convert, be their cleric and uphold the tenets they espouse - which in Sherarash's case case would automatically include the hatred of the drow) is really up to your DM and how he plays his gods. You may just have to "take it on faith" that your willful and devoted fervor to them will be rewarded...some day. As for Tymora, yes. You got it. You're an adventurer, she's the goddess of adventurers. Praise be to Tymora that you succeed in your adventures. Dedicate your quest(s) to her. etc. But I agree, Shevarash or Hoar are probably your best bets (though not as powerful deities). Again, a god is a god, for you to attempt to "trade" for the god's help with something (i.e. I'll praise you/make donations IF you help me with my vengence) is what they call "hubris." Human arrogance in the face of an immortal. YOU need them, not the other way around. It is likely, not only NOT to get you their help, but slapped with some kind of divine wrath/curse/life lesson of your own...remember Odysseus? But, again (and last time) it is really all up to how your DM plays his deities and the personalities (if any) he gives them. Again, good luck. Let me know what you decide n' how it goes. I'm a sucker for some justice-fueled smack down. --SD [/QUOTE]
