[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8419078, member: 23751"] Two groups, both called "elven ancestors" is not four groups. "Choose a god, a pantheon of gods, [B]or some other quasi-divine being...[/B]" If you're going to say someone is utterly wrong, it's best for you not to be utterly wrong with your proclamation. That's the first thing. The second thing is that "Or some other quasi-divine being" is 33 characters, and "or choose elven ancestors" is only 25 and would actually tell people accurate information(if your assumption was true, which it's not). Third, the elven ancestors aren't even quasi-divine. They were like CR 9 creatures. Fourth, It does not make it clear what the power levels are, no. However, since the acolyte tells players to look for quasi-divine beings(demigods) on that list, people are going to wonder which ones are. They also aren't titans or vestiges. Demigod is the closest thing on the list to them the "demigods" of old which are on the list as quasi-divine deities. The game provides no mechanism for hearing requests for omens and the request being granted. It's DM Fiat pure and simple. Going down to tell a clerics, "Hey, Tempus wants you to beat up Fzoul." or deliver a message on that portfolio in person to a temple to let them know how important the request is, or personally handle something on another plane for Tempus since he's busy, or, or, or, or... Simply granting spells takes no time away from Tempus. It can't or he wouldn't have any time for anything else but granting spells to his own clerics. Literally did not. I've been arguing with you for pages now that Iuz is a demigod BECAUSE he does NOT have large bodies of followers, because if he did he would be a lesser or greater god. YOU are the one arguing that he must have a lot. [/QUOTE]
