[QUOTE="Soltares, post: 201895, member: 4070"] If anything, the Time of Troubles is a perfect reason NOT to believe in the gods as 'gods.' Some of them DIED. Gods don't just wander around the planet and bump each other off like spoiled children. Those must not have been real gods. Alternately, from the way he described his backstory, his family dying and the gods doing nothing to help, it isn't so much that he doesn't believe in the gods, as he *hates* them. Again, given the Time of Troubles (perhaps his family lived in Tantras, and died when Torm sucked their lives out to empower himself to kill Bane, Bane, who later returned, good as new, making the sacrifice of his parents lives *utterly meaningless*), there are dozens of situations where he could have losts his family as a result of the Avatars thing, as gods where all over, and plenty of mortals lost their lives in the big brou-hah. "God hates me." "Hate him back. Works for me." [/QUOTE]
