[QUOTE="Irennan, post: 6779823, member: 6778119"] It also brings some other really weird stuff. For example, if luck ceases to exist with Tymora, what happens? Luck is only a human-made definition to indicate the possibility of good things (or bad) happening to people. If Tymora and Beshaba were to disappear, then luck and bad luck wouldn't exist and nothing bad or good would ever happen? If Helm stopped existing, would the concept of protection be deleted? Without Talos, nothing would be able to be destroyed ever, but since a lot of natural processes involve the ''destruction'' of something (even necessary to life, ''destroying'' nutrients to gain energy), the world would basically stop... There's even more, considering Tyche, for example. Lets say we rolled a dice. The result isn't actually ''random'', it's just a motion that is completely defined by how the dice was thrown. If Tyche could make it so that all dies rolled 6, then she would also be able to control motion. And if she could do that with dies, she would be able to do it with anything that can affect a person in any way (since luck is defined by that). So Tyche would potentially have full control on everything, as long as that thing affects a person (or a being for which the definition of luck exists). This would basically mean that Tyche, before Tymora/Beshaba, potentially had full control on absolutely everything that could affect a creature in any way, in every circumstance where an happening might have repercussions on a creature.
