Lack of god selection
Ive not played since druid release but was wondering if they have or plan to introduce more god choices as it seems limited. What is your choice of missing god? mine is umberlee the ♥♥♥♥♥ queen. Remember the temple from bg 1

NWN2 Mask of the Betrayer already covered the debate about the Wall of the Faithless. Even Kelemvor was thinking that it is not really fair, but he still could not allow exceptions or abolish the thing. There are higher things at stake. The Wall exists for a reason.

Fair enough. I guess I can say I would prefer it to be different, but also accept that it is what it is.

There was another potential fate for the faithless and that is being consumed by asmodeus in his true form.

I would prefer if the afterlife was based off of your moral actions and so forth. As far as being atheist, that was possible in other games (EQ1 comes to mind) and it was fine. It just meant that for some reason you chose not to follow a deity.

Your morality should still get you into one afterlife or another, rather than the worship of a deity. At least that's my opinion, with regards to how D&D works anyways.

But my character is not an atheist!! His Practical apathetic agnostic those believe it is not worth debating whether or not gods exist or if they are good or not. Why look for gods and follow them when you can become one. Anyone can be a god with enough power! After all we have one as a pet in camp already. SO the whole fuss around them is not needed.

In short you need to find all the lagendary items to get all the power for yourself (you have to kill gale so he doesn't take the items) and become a god yourself and teardown the Wall of the Faithless. ow yeah and the tadpole is there just to help with all that..:)

worth a try but there are tiers of god and the apotheosis you are talking about wouldnt be enough as this is the will of ao essentially the over god of this sphere. I agree though gale is poorly written and guessing a poor mans karsus.

Missin my Denier (the Forgotton Realms god not the fabric measurement)- the all seeing eye

Oghmas scribe
Teacher, Mentor, Fellow of History, extractor of the knowledge of measures and recorder of deeds.

With Denier there is an exacting nature of precision when it comes to communication and thought that the historiographer in me appreciates.

(usually played as an overly involved Language Arts teacher)

Ao does not care about anything but his/hers/its precious dragon children. Everything else is but a specs of dust. Also Ao is the creator gods of this Multiverse, but he is not the one who made all the rules.

He does indeed enforce it (also IO is the dragon god you are thinking of and is different to AO).
The Time of Troubles was precipitated by an attempt by the gods Bane and Myrkul to steal the Tablets of Fate from the overdeity Ao. Angry at the gods for their habitual pursuit of power and negligence toward their mortal faithful,[3] Lord Ao relegated every god (except for the guardian god Helm, selected to protect the gates to the heavens[6]) to walk among their followers on the earth.

Not the multiverse, well older lore suggests just this crystal sphere, Each sphere is like a solar system and each has its own gods and rules. Some gods have influence in multiple realms but each is seperate.

Yes that the point of fantasy hehe.

There is always one more god or whatver that's more powerful than the last one... LIke i said, get the power for yourself. You know the good old simple masterpice narative of BG 2...:)
