A Huge Help in Divine Role-play:

Unread post by DM Napoleon »

Whenever I have played a divine character, the most important thing to me was knowledge of the deity I worshiped. Any divine character should know the ins and outs of their god, obviously. I have always used the site listed to give me a more advanced reading on each god. Simply type the name of your deity into the search bar, select it and read up. You will find great information that will only enhance your roleplay as a Divine Character. It lists: Holy days, in depth information on the clergy, Holy days, celebrations, prayers, daily activities, and generally gives you what ever information you need to properly play any divine character. (Just be sure to pay attention to the time frame. Make certain that it correlates with the server timeline. Mystra is not dead yet, ect.)

Just remember that not all of the information is taken in our lore, check with our "Lore of the Lands" if you ever feel you should question its text.
"The finer points of devotion are about the size of a pin hole.
But there’s millions of them, and if you can connect each dot then you’ve got a diagram of what you think you thought you knew. And if you are willing to admit you know nothing, you’ve got a blueprint for a breakthrough."

This is a very helpful link. It is basicly the information from the core books online. A must for any one who doesn't have access to the core books material.

Dead spiderman. I read they killed spiderman/Peter Parker, and to "make it up to date" the new spiderman, is a "black guy" Or what ever is the right thing to say. :)
