[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 7934191, member: 16069"] Apologies, I meant the FR modules. I'll maybe have a look at the religions, my issue is- as stated above, my players universally really couldn't give a damn about the size and shape of the various deities in the pantheon, the gods- thinking back on it, have never really played much of a role in my games. Impetus maybe- go help the Church of... Bad guys, lots of times... they're all dastardly worshippers of... Don't get me wrong, some of the Players and NPCs/Bad Guys et al have got religion but it's all just surface work, or else (name of deity) is just a handy source of spells and/or ethos. We're very religion light (good vs evil, rather than specifics) always have been. Example, Pete (one of my regular players) likes a good Paladin- but that's just because he gets to be a stat heavy, armour wearing, sword-wielding, shouty (self-righteous) thug- with a heart of gold. In the game I'm writing up atm here on ENWorld (ToD) three of the five PCs are ex-Dragon Cultists that have seen the Light of Lathander and are supposedly adherents, I doubt that any of the Players has read anything to do with the Lord of Light (including Lummins- who often describes himself as the High Priest of Lathander, or THE Lord of Light), they've improvised once or twice. Note, Pete played Ray the Zealot in ToD (a Paladin of Lathander) he was killed by Kobolds, boy was everyone glad to see the back of him. Odd, maybe, I'm not sure- I'm more interested in the geography, history, flora and fauna et al; I may read some of the sourcebooks for detail, as and when, but I think I'm more interested in the FR modules/sourcebooks for the lay (and the play) of the land. Thanks again, its very definitely good to talk, always a pleasure sir, and your knowledge of this land is to be admired, and then stolen and passed off as my own... Cheers Goonalan [/QUOTE]
