In Dark Sun, there is NO WAY to keep a consistent mythology, let alone a formal religion. It is impossible. Almost every Sorcerer-King portrays themselves as gods, and the people are often times isolated in the wasteland and only passing down oral tradition. This is ultimately why trying to make a solid answer has to be DM dependent. The setting logically does not make cultural sense otherwise. The only thing that the people have truly accepted on Athas, and later in Fyreen, is that the gods have abandoned them (and some ppl prob won't accept that!). This doesn't even mean the gods really did abandon them. I could, on the spot, come up with a host of divinities that were in Athas this whole time not doing naughty word, or doing something else, etc.Oral tradition, individual faith, and the mutation of mythology across Doomspace ought to be a core component of it (should you have an interest in these subjects).</blockquote>
