In real life, each culture has their own creation myth. Presumably in the fantasy setting, there is a real, objective creation story. All living beings should worship the same gods, even if they give them different names (Greek vs Roman would be a great real world example of this). But I totally agree... in order to use the archetypes (spells, turning undead, etc...) of power, you have to also approximate the archetype of power structure.<br /><br />I've come up with a solution I think works well... an empire wide pantheon, where individuals place various importance on specific deities, but never ignore the rest.<br /><br />http://shatterworldrpg.blogspot.com/2011/10/shattering_04.htmlNiccodaemushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12969643475763823901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829093857574761981.post-42636211745295154162010-12-07T02:27:56.315+00:002010-12-07T02:27:56.315+00:00Nice -- two awesome posts in a row.

I went with one church in my campaign too, although I guess for a certain kind of game more religions in rivalry could be fun.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829093857574761981.post-88972877003429326442010-12-06T23:04:19.924+00:002010-12-06T23:04:19.924+00:00Careful ... next thing you know I'll be plotti...Careful ... next thing you know I'll be plotting out alignment drift on a Cartesian grid ...Roger G-Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594440701279968693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4829093857574761981.post-39710140411243779182010-12-05T19:49:39.330+00:002010-12-05T19:49:39.330+00:00So, what about piety points?So, what about piety points?M Harold Pagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08949772130509527838noreply@blogger.com
