Which one would you worship?
You can find a list of them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Greyhawk_deities
Which Deity would you follow if you were in the world of Greyhawk? Pelor? Wee Jas?
I personally would worship Ehlonna, goddess of the woodlands.

Re: Which one would you worship?
I'd most likely worship boccob,god of magic,due to the fact that my preffered class is wizard.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Greyhawk has a crappy pantheon. FR would be better for this.
I wouldn't worship anyone, in Greyhawk. Well, maybe Olidammara, because he's awesome.
In Faerun--well, I may be an atheist, but I'd become a cleric (or, ideally, archivist--low WIS) of Lliira in a snap. Best god evar.
Edit: y'know, I don't think a deity of nature--in which animals have to kill each other to live, and some creatures actually implant their eggs inside other, still-living creatures, so that they eat the creature alive from the inside once they hatch--should ever be Good.Last edited by Bears With Lasers; 2006-12-30 at 07:54 PM.

Hanali is a FR deity, though.

Well, Kurtulmak, of course! Failing that, either Lirr or Ehlonna.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Meh. I forgot, actual Greyhawk has just as many deities as Faerun, if not more.
I'm really not all that familiar with most of them outside Faerun. Hypothetically, if I really lived in Faerun, chances are I would be a 1st level commoner and would probably worship Chauntea. 'Cus, you know, she keeps those food crops happy. Unless I were magically talented, then it'd be Mystra (the Greyhawk god of magic is boring, though).Quote:

Pelor or Boccob. Although Kord would be a great guy to go drinking with.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Trithereon
Never noticed him before a player in my Greyhawk camp chose to make a fighter/cleric of his faith. The PC eventually took on a gnoll army in order to make his church the offical religion of the Yeomanry (only democracy in the setting).
This let me run a Two Towers-like game. It was an Epic 7th level adventure, best I've run in D&D.Last edited by Diggorian; 2006-12-30 at 08:43 PM.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Eh, if I could worship any D&D deity it would be Mystra or Sune from FR (or, um, maybe Loviatar)
...but if I have to pick a Greyhawk one, um, Wee Jas, I guess...Last edited by Scorpina; 2006-12-30 at 09:28 PM.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Future son-in-law material right there!
Me, I'd either worship Heironeous(sp?) in his aspect as Leeroy Jenkins!, or Wee Jas, or maybe Pholtus of the Blinding Light (free set of blinkers when you convert...), or maybe Wastri...
I's all about messing with expectations. But strangely am not allowed to play clerics anymore.Last edited by bosssmiley; 2006-12-30 at 09:26 PM.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Pelor, Bahamut, Farlangh or Celestian. Possibly all four as a pantheon.

Re: Which one would you worship?
I wouldn't worship any of them. Gods suck, paladins suck, and clerics suck. No offense to paladins, but most of the time you guys are a little self-rightous and supposedly all-mighty. Clerics, you guys really aren't all that bad, until you try to convert my character and won't let up. It just gets to the point where I drive my Longsword +3 through your stomach and then Coup De Grace you. Gods, your just following your portfolios, and I respect that, but don't try to seek me out and make me worship you. It ain't happenin'.

Re: Which one would you worship?
Actually, Faerun is the only campaign setting I've played in, and it isn't all that bad. My character just believes that there's no such thing as a 'correct' path, but gods, paladins, and clerics try to make it so that you believe that their faith is 'correct.' I follow my own path. May not be the correct one in the eyes of any dieties, but I don't really care.
