Since many of the WotC previous editions board members migrated here, I am hoping some of you remember this guy. If not, you can read his wikipedia entry HERE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorellik).
After about half a year of working on my website, I am taking this vacation time to at least finally finish the deities and other powers section of my homebrewed campaign world's/cosmology's website. I just came across this declining deity, who for some reason he caught my interest, as well as making me feel emotional for his story. So while reading his entry, and how he is becoming more feral/hyena like I was suddenly reminded of the Cat Lord and the Animal Lords, and how they deal and mix with their patron animals. Then I got the idea, is he becoming the Animal Lord of hyenas and hyena-related creatures? Can a deity become/degenerate to/convert to a completely different kind of patron/divine being such as an animal lord?
And are there already animal lords for each animal, or are there some vacant positions/animals?
If the answers are yes, then could this be worked into an adventure/campaign somehow?!
