[QUOTE="Don Incognito, post: 4721132, member: 81448"] TANGENT TIME One of the things I REALLY REALLY LIKE about Eberron is the fact that the gods are ambivalent. They are certainly good or bad, but they stay out of human affairs, don't send their representatives down to preach their doctrine, and are difficult to communicate with. The gods of Daunton, I imagine, are just as conspicuously silent. Sure, divine characters can invoke their power and whatnot, but they are just kind of...well, distant. This opens the interpretation that some believe that there [I]are[/I] no gods. Devas throw a wrench in the system. Angel-people that are direct servants of the gods make it very hard for athiests. I attempted to fix the system by offering them an origin. Just my two cents. Devas (as written) are very closely tied in to the gods of any campaign setting they appear in. If the gods of Daunton are more "hands-off", they may need some tweaking. If they gods of Daunton are more "hands-on", they may work, but I find that such settings always wind up as pale reflections of Forgotten Realms. [/QUOTE]
