It seems you now have one.  Fortunately, not as anime, so not as jarring compared to the other avatars . . . .

There's nothing wrong with concepts from our world. The problem arises when an author takes a plot from our history. The latter just shows a lack of imagination. The first usually isn't.
And nationalism isn't bad, in and of itself. It's when it becomes like a religion that it is -- like the Nazis, communism, and the rash of "Americanism" of the sixties.
Alles in ordnung!

He killed a dragon and it fell on him....lol.....Cropping didn't look right either so yes I kept the whole pic and fit to size. |
Courage isn't the lack of fear but rather believing in and doing what you know is right even though fear is present.

I'd be the patron of Knife wielding maniacs
Maybe then I'd be worshipped by Chefs, Butchers and Surgeons faerun-wide
My avatar would be a 20hd Gibberling Fighter with a knife as its primary weapon

I would be like Teumpus: providing a forum for these pursuits, but not taking sides when they conflict with each other. My allies would include Waukeen, Gond, and Oghma (necessary amoral aspects of any sustainable political entity) and my biggest enemy would be Gargauth (the embodiment of employing these pursuits for purely selfish reasons).
this is like sth from history of our life and I dont like it .
well nationalizm is a good thing but I will be the god that opposes it and says internationalizm instead
Nationalism, in my opinion, is not good, because what follows is usually hate crimes towards a particular ethnicity. An example would be the hate crimes the us citizens made towards pakistani people not too long ago.
I won't go into political views though, as this is not the place to do so...
I'd probably be rallaster...come on... metal for skin...jagged all over the place. Plus, insanity really is my "thing" (which you will find out if you get to know me).
Or maybe vecna, because it's so mysterious, or even one of the xamux gods, because of the alignment, and because they're worshippers are characterized by an inclination towards experimentation and learning (if im correct in my thinking...if not, please tell me so) |

Isn't killing funny???...Come on Black Sun,Does it matter to Cyric why someone dies.I would kill out of anger or self-defence but most certainly Cyric himself would find humor in slaying someone for what ever reason. |

Yes killing is funny therefore lots of unwilling people like me still survives after some funny events. Funny killing in the name of primatural taste of blood of the same of yours. Funny is killing caused by insanity. Funny is killing by the will of power. Funny killing in the name of god, money and anything that all the time.
Why don't we kill all the time? Doesn't that make us bigger and stronger? Hey lets kill someone and be funny. Those are the attitudes makes us comit crimes.These are the premature attitudes that cause us face to laws. Those are the problems of every world who has power to rule and people to obey. Let's make fun of the murdered children of a murdered cop's widow. Let's make fun of unexpected death of childeren of African people suffering for years because of femine
Well sometime I lose my temper but I don't accept killin is a funny thing.Who say that will hear about me and who kills will find my justice. In the name of Hoar I ll avenge the suffering hearts |
Punish me if you will, for my hands are not clean. But deny me not my revenge!"

Ok with exception to eilinel, (which by the way the portfolio's you've chosen seem to compliment eachother)
I figure we need to calm down a little in here... The fires of the Nine Hells and the Abyss don't burn any hotter than on the path this scroll has recently tread.
On the ideals of Cyric (deity), killing for any reason or even the lack thereof is good enough for him. Whether... no nevermind that. We are not going to walk down that path at this time. Just a final word of caution to all: " Beware the path you tread, for it may not be your own. The path to the abyss is wide and easily walked, it's going the other way that's the hard part."
Beware... |
It has to be Certain, the Gods Hate Me. For whatever irrevokable Fate, I have been made the walking Joke. Either that, or Beshaba is overlyfond Of Me.

| I would be the god of honor, chivalry, and justice. Basicly the same as tyr or helm but those are my favorite gods by far. |

In essence I would be the god of the Drow by killing Lolth and males would be revered. Basically I would be the god of death, assassination, murder, lies, intrigue, drow.
Domains- shadow, trickery, death
My avatar would be a -
20 Rogue, 10 Assassin, 10 Shadow Dancer, 5 Fighter
Weapons - +5 Speed, Unholy Short Sword
+5 Speed, Unholy Dagger
Symbol would be the two weapons crossed |

the goddess of divination would be good too. knowing everything before everyone and so changing the futur
then goddess of knowledge and wisdom too.
and of course magic.
as a neutral good goddess.
or
the goddess of depravation, madness, intrigue, lies, pervertion...
as a neutral evil goddess

I guess if I was denied my original evil godhood....Hmmm
I guess begin god of The Sun, Nobility, Contracts, and Honor would do... Yes Kinda like the old Amunator... but with enough power to never have to worry about fading into oblivion (or something as equally joyful....) |

Wow, my post has sure generated a lot of controversy!
Nationalism, to me, is an instrumental means of establishing and then maintaining a political entity. It can be mostly positive or mostly negative (depending on circumstances) but never wholly either. |

Basically.. Thats just not good and reliable. Slaying Lolth is my idea. And fer say they're can only be one main god of the Drow and that would be me. |

| I think I'd like to be the God of Retribution and Vindication - this would slightly overlap into Justice and Law...but I would be including more "personal" or "street" justice as my theme. For example the sort of person to ask for my assistance would be a father whose daughter was raped, and he sets out to kill the man who did it knowing that he (the rapist) would never get prosecuted for whatever reason, or perhaps the sentence he received was/would be too light in his opinion. |
It is knowledge that influences and equalizes the social condition of man; that gives to all, however different their political position, passions which are in common, and enjoyments which are universal.

I don't know what you mean. If I could be a god.
I am a god. Any way slightly more seriously I would be god of Dark magic and undead.

Gods, who wants to be a god while man can be an in immortal and gods are mortal. I meant that man can live as long as he wants if he has enough power while gods are weak to face with the strongest man alive. Bane, Myrkul and Bhaal made it I believe if one wants to be one of the under ruler he or she can be one and make all tremble under his or her vicious rule.
However I want to be the immortal who is behind the so called gods manipulations and politics in where my word is worshiped as a law of gods |

| God of solace and soul-searching/contemplation. |
"Gygax:The new D&D is too rule intensive. It's relegated the Dungeon Master to being an entertainer rather than master of the game. It's done away with the archetypes, focused on nothing but combat and character power, lost the group cooperative aspect, bastardized the class-based system, and resembles a comic-book superheroes game more than a fantasy RPG where a player can play any alignment desired, not just lawful good. Now, should I tell you what I really think [of it]?" |
