[QUOTE="Lackhand, post: 4180745, member: 36160"] I like carving religions out of other religions. This may well be presented in the core books already, but if not, here are the religious ties I plan on using. [code] Dragon-Gods (Old Gods, Astral Gods: The first ones, of the same rank as the Primordials, but of a different nature. The first intelligences. There are many others of fragmentary intelligence, slain during the Primordial's rebellion; their realms still scatter the night sky as stars. The Septine are recognized and worshipped.) Io (Deceased. Dragons, sacrifice, prophecy) Bahamut (Honor, Justice, Good Dragons, Dragonborn) Tiamat (Vengeance, Evil Dragons, Dragonborn) Zehir (Night, Serpents, Set clone) Torog (?, Evil?) The Septine Church, The True Gods ( The younger generation of gods, and allied together. Each represents a planet, except for the moon, which is said to be part of a slain primordial of change, beasts, and destruction. The Serpent gods are acknowledged but not worshipped.) Pelor (Sun, Humans, Agriculture) Erathis (Civilization, and the planet Mercury -- similar in personality to Athena or Mercury) Avandra (Luck, Chance, Halflings -- also, love, and the planet Venus) Melora (Wilderness -- the virgin huntress, Diana, and the goddess of the Earth) Bane (War, Tyranny, and the planet Mars) Moradin (Crafting, Dwarves -- wealth, hearths, and the planet Jupiter) Ioun (Magic, Knowledge -- the planet Saturn) Unspoken Gods/Saints: Asmodeus (Deceit, Devils -- causes eclipses) Vecna (Secrets -- an ascended mortal, a sort of antisaint) Cuthbert (Retribution, Justice -- sort of a Saint George figure) Cult of the Moon (Cult of the Threefold God, Elven Court of Stars. A mystery cult and much favored by the fey and their allies. They are opposed by the Septine gods because of their unaligned nature during much of the war against the Primordials, being more concerned with the Feyweald.) Correllon (Magic, Eladrin, Sickle Moon) Sehanine (Moon, Forest, Elves, Full Moon) Lolth (Drow, Treachery, New Moon) Cult of the Brothers (Warrior cult shared by barbarians, werewolves, orcs, giants, ogres, and many others; blood sacrifices are reasonably common) Kord (Strength, Storms) Gruumsh (Orcs, Slaughter -- and rage) The Raven Queen (Death, the Dead, Winter, Fate: She gets her own religion, and is acknowledged in at least a folkloric sense by almost every other religion) Cult of Elemental Evil, Elder Elemental Eye, First Evil. No more need be said. Tharizdun (Evil, Demons) [/code] [/QUOTE]
