[quote=Wodgev] I disagree with much of the criticism.A torch sounds completely logical for a god of mining, dwarves, etc. (dwarves are often depicted with torches, and a torch is kinda useful when you're underground). This does not necessarily mean you invented the torch, just that it came to symbolize what you stand for (underground).The ability to shape mountains should in no way be out of your reach, although not being able to do it any more and wanting to reclaim it may be a good choice nonetheless. You could even go so far as to have your power be burried somewhere in the mountains of the world, and have the dwarves' original purpose be to dig it up.The elder god part seem irrelevant to me, although I'm fond of the idea that gods come into existence when they are needed. So the crop god was born because crops were being planted, and the god of war was born because people started fighting.Dragon's are nearly as closely linked to mountains as dwarves are, and riches come with their territory. So yes to dragons (also, they officially exist now :D). (question that can be asked is "are they animals, or servitars?" though)On the subject of Vryad and the death domain:I think I will keep half of it in, since I do love the idea of mortals being judged by the deity of bad luck. I'll edit. [/quote] Now he changed the post of his god to mining and dwarves, yes the torch is completly logical. I never said he couldn't be the shaper of mountains. I just said him it might be more interesting to switch focus to dwarves to bring the god closer to the people. I have nothing against the idea that it was he who created the mountains, just as much as Era and Tavon created nature. I like the idea that everyone was there at least as an energy source, because how can you be a god of this world if you weren't at its creation. I agree that both dwarves and dragons are linked to mountains, but the connection between dwarves and dragons is rather poor. Look at the movies of "The Hobbit". OR maybe dwarves and dragons coexist in this world. That would be interesting. Then everything would make perfect sense and could be a cool thing to play with. I don't mind if your god takes care of the lost souls.
