[QUOTE="Stormprince, post: 63954, member: 2046"] Think about what attributes you want to associate with the Sun/Day and with Moon/Night. In one campaign, I had the sun goddess being a very strict Lawbringer type, the 'Burning Eye of the Sun'. She was the epitome of Law, Truth, and Strength (and thus also War, Death, etc). She sought to eternally banish the Darkness, period, believing that Evil festered only in Darkness. Conversely, the Moon God was a far gentler type, given to Dreams (and thus Illusions), Healing, Magic, etc... He preached that understanding and accepting the Darkness was the only way to defeat Evil... Both gods also had their own darker aspects: The Sun Goddess went to such extremes of Lawfulness that she, and her followers, were fanatics in destroying anything they believed to be tainted by the Darkness (much like the Whitecloaks do in Robert Jordan's books)... The Moon God, because of his connection to the tides and the weather, was too close to the Darkness, and thus could be just as vengeful and unforgiving as his twin. Basically, I tried to cover all possible spectrums with these two gods, which made worship both easier, and more difficult *chuckles* I ended up throwing in quite a few demon cults and making it a more Desert-Arabic type setting, just because I liked the idea of Righteous Zealots wearing white turbans and caftans riding down enemies of 'Light' beneath the glaring desert sun...
