[QUOTE="Telsar, post: 1570144, member: 18837"] And I responded. :) In the email, I said I'd work up a more indivudalized power/god than Talona, and here's what I came up with: [B]Bubophis Lesser Deity (Neutral Evil)[/B] Bubophis is the god of plagues, and of the devastation and stagnation that plagues can cause. He is often depicted as a swarm of disease-infected rats or bats, and his followers commonly revere these creatures. Bubophis doesn’t want all creatures to die from disease; diseases are a living thing that are constantly needing new hosts to survive. But he does desire a world crippled by plague, where sentient beings live in constant fear of contact with others, where progress, knowledge, and social development come to an abrupt end. A world where diseases are the dominant life, with the common creatures merely instruments for the diseases to travel. Followers of Bubophis often allow themselves to be afflicted with minor diseases, particularly those that induce fevers, which they say produce visions of their deity’s desires. Bubophis is believed to be fond of the diseases of vampirism and lycanthropy, and more than a few of his followers have these afflictions. Followers of Pelor (the Sun God) find the “cult” of Bubophis very offensive, and eradicate them when able, generally through cleansing fire. [B]Portfolios:[/B] Disease, the Night, Swarms, Regression [B]Cleric Domains: [/B] Darkness (FR), Destruction, Evil, Suffering (FR), Travel [B]Unholy Warrior Domains: [/B] Corruption, Darkness, Disease What do you think? Could this be who your character venerates? [/QUOTE]
