Pardon all the text, I'm cutting-and-pasting... <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Eroded God is an enormous figure of carven stone, its features worn away long before it came staggering up out of the surf. It can't actually speak in anything other than a unintelligible mumble, but the priesthood will happily translate for a modest fee. It's worked a number of minor miracles over the years (curing the sick, calling down bolts from the blue, and such-like), but it has a difficult time staying focused on such tasks. By and large it is content to set in its temple, listening to music and watching scantily-clad women dance, making the occasional prophecy or pronouncement. Or what is assumed to be such.</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The God-That-Is-Not is worshiped by the Cult of That-Which-Is-Not. It's a Sphere of Annihilation, which is either a path to paradise or a one-way ticket off the wheel of existence entirely.</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">An abandoned temple houses an entity known only as The Dog. An enormous hound, the size of a war-horse, it's apparently immortal (some 200 years old now) and virtually unkillable (as testified by the number of now dead folk who have tried). It wanders throughout the building, never showing any particular signs of more-than-canine intelligence, and will occasionally accept gifts of food from petitioners. Those whose offering are accepted find themselves receiving a small blessing of some sort -- luck in love, recovery from illness, a sudden windfall.</li> </ul> <ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Dog is served by a small and fanatical priesthood, who follow it about and clean up after it. They make a small living for themselves selling its droppings in the Five Fathoms Market, where buyers assume that the crap of a Dog that might be a God *has* to be worth something. If nothing else, it makes excellent fertilizer.</li> </ul></blockquote>
