[QUOTE="BOZ, post: 2906929, member: 1241"] noticed the references to Saint Kargoth the Betrayer, and Raxivort the other day. :) good stuff! given that i was born on the 12th day of the 12th month, your reference is not lost on me. ;) and i support this! indeed - as i have commented before, it looks like Erik really dug Colin's suggestions. :) i forget if it was you or someone else, but i remember seeing someone defining Zzy as the "Patron of Innocence". planar scholars might attribute "Innocence" as a mistranslation for "Ignorance" - pretty amusing. ;) and actually, Colin told me that Z was actually Ray Vallese's "creation", which Ray later confirmed. hmm, i'm starting to think that the authors wanted to create controversy on purpose, since controversy sells. :D although, you know, if someone gets to use the article idea i suggested above, we could have at least some description of the lesser demon lords pop up so that they don't have to compete with Orcus, Demogorgon, and Graz'zt for screen time. ;) actually, Dagon is [i]Dagon[/i] for the D&D game. Cthulhu isn't the only Old One in Lovecraft's books, you know. ;) i was wondering that myself, especially since Melf didn't have an actual first name that i'm aware of (unless Melf really was his first name)...
