[QUOTE="VelvetViolet, post: 6537965, member: 6686357"] The gods of evil have always bothered me. The gods of good and neutrality are served by their angels and so on, but the gods of evil must bargain with fiends and have no dedicated workforce. This leads to the strange situation of demon lords having bigger armies than actual evil gods. Why shouldn't Angels have evil counterparts that serve the gods of evil like in 4e? Better yet, why not cut out the middleman and make the fiend lords and the gods of evil one and the same? I liked the Scarred Lands pantheon: one gods to represent each of the nine alignments and numerous demigods for everything else. In the case of the three gods of evil, the fiendish races were their de facto servants. That's what I'm looking for. In fact, why not equate the gods of evil/fiend lords with the titans? The gods claim they created the titans and punished them for rebellion, but perhaps the opposite is true: In the beginning the titans of chaos and evil and their elemental, protean, and qlippoth children held sway. Then the titans and gods of law and good appeared to overthrow and imprison them. [/QUOTE]
