Message: <blockquote data-quote="Levistus's_Leviathan" data-source="post: 8719496" data-attributes="member: 7023887">ACTUALLY WRITTEN? Where? Are you only including official sources? Because according to kanon, Eberron would not consider the FR pantheon to actually be gods, just like they don't consider the Dreaming Dark, Progenitor Dragons, or Demon Overlords to be gods. That's not written in any official books, but Keith Baker, the creator of Eberron, has confirmed it to be true. And, I don't think having different settings' definitions of gods being incompatible is a bad thing. On Earth, we certainly don't agree on the definition. So reflecting that in different settings makes sense, even if they're in the same multiverse. . . . If the entities (or their religions) differ from world to world due to how they're worshipped there, even though a singular entity does exist, that isn't at conflict with them being "divine". They can be "divine" without being gods, and them being considered gods in one setting and not in another is just due to the different definitions of the word in the different settings. I really don't see a problem here. There are entities that people in the Forgotten Realms consider "gods" that people in Eberron would refuse to worship. There are "gods" in Eberron that people in the Forgotten Realms would refuse to worship because you can't actually meet them in order to prove that they exist. I don't see how that's a problem. That just seems like an interesting conflict between settings that could make for a cool debate between two clerics from different settings.</blockquote>
