Posted - 08 Jul 2024 : 13:53:21 Fellow Scribes,
it has come to my attention that among the latest Ed-tweets, in the one on swear-sayings of the various religions he is casually dropping names of god-related (favored servitors, Chosens, relatives, ...) of some deities. Some are well known, some I might have heard before, but a few I'm drawing a blank. Can anyone help place them?
Reposting the relevant parts of the Ed-lore here:

...
So for Mystra: “Elminster Farruking Aumar!” For Chauntea: “Janness Farruking Harvestmother!” For Bane: “Iyachtu Farruking Xvim!” For Shar: “Dazhra Farruking Headless!”
...
For Eilistraee: Kazra Farruking Louantrar!
...
[...] that sort of oath is what other mortals swear by, citing a divine servitor (or literal son or daughter) of a deity.
...
For Myrkul: Ketheric Farruking Thorm!
...
For Lolth: Danifae Farruking Yauntyrr!
...
For Eilistraee: Qilué Farruking Veladorn!
...

Thanks Zero!
Really need to get around to playing BG3 ...
In the meantime we got a Gond servitor named too but already with a brief description |

Posted - 13 Jul 2024 : 09:52:35 Wow, Eilistraee's worshipers have 2 swears to go by! They must curse a lot. Poor Qilue...another victim of bad writing. |

I hate when games make the music so damn loud and then have someone whispering in the background that you'd really like to hear. |

Thanks AJA!
I suppose Dazhra Headless and Ketheric Thorm are likewise previously unknown characters. |
