Drunken master(monk) cannot choose evil deities

[Vairly]

I'm not sure if this bug existed before the update.
I tried to create a drunk master and choose a new evil dragon deity.
But the game doesn't allow me to choose Dahak and other evil deities, as if my character is a simple monk, not a drunk master.

If I take another class at level 1 and choose an evil deity, then from level 2 I can choose the drunk master class.

I hope this is a bug and it will be fixed soon.

Dahak is a Chaotic Evil deity, meaning you have to be CE, NE or CN to worship him.

Monks have to be Lawful, so your alignment is opposed to him.

That is mostly true. Drunken Master is the outlier here, needing explicitly a non-Lawful alignment.

As for evil deities: it can select Achaekek, Asmodeus, Urgathoa and Norgorber and Zon-Kuthon. The issue is that the archetype cannot, for whatever reason, select any chaotic deity except of Cayden Cailean. Including the newly introduced Dahak.

We all know drunken monks are good guys! :)

The druken master rule was rushed because of people wanting to pick cayden cailean even though lore wise it should be impossible (in tabletop drunken master is still lawful). That's what happens when you homebrew stuff without actually thinking about the meaning of the rule you homebrew.

So it's full of inconsistencies and the deity list likely has to be manually updated.

Tell me about it. Afaik Owlcat also forgot about the Drunken Master's incompability with many Monk robes. Them requiring a Lawful alignment and all. Can't say I remember them adding new robes for the non-Lawful Drunken Master.

This drove me insane. Drunken Masters are generally only mimic being drunk. Their movements aren't chaotic, but precisely controlled, with their great inner strength being used to transmute alcohol into something more constructive. That's the opposite of chaotic. But the hoipoloi don't get it.
