Well, I'm afraid I don't make it to the homepage much. My browser automatically loads my subs and I tend to go off from there.

Quick question while I'm thinking about the religion thing:

The OP mentions that, aside form the Drakken's three major gods, they've got some lesser ones too. I'm wondering if we're allowed to elaborate on that and in general wondering just how polytheistic the Drakken are (e.g. do they have personal "household" gods or is there only a set number of gods in their religion?).

EDIT

Actually…

Drakken culture adopts things like art and architecture from the countries they conquer, do they not? Would Raya and I be able to find any temples or shrines dedicated to our patron gods?


This could be true, just like how the Romans adopted the Greek gods and changed all their names, if the Drakken religion is flexible like that it's entirely possible they did adopt the Gemminian gods (probably a long time ago back when the peace treaty was first made, they probably don't even rememember) and so there are Drakken-named versions of Gem gods floating around.

Just a thought really, it would be interesting if that were the case.

Kasari had been too complacent thus far, had to stir up some trouble with a question about the gods. XD May the Fire Gem live up to her bold, unpredictable element.

@Raxacoricofallapatorius

I allow and encourage people to make stuff up for the gods/culture. (I like world building)

Though there are things I should mention.

  • Vivari (the Great Mother) is mentioned in nearly all cultures, though this doesn't mean she is worshipped. So she would be mentioned in Drakken religious writing. But she is painted as a betrayer and unloving mother. (So Drakkens don't like her and they will never worship her)
  • Drakken's have three main gods that are worshipped above the others, Norric is the next popular god. But you are free to make up house gods/Goddesses if you wish.
  • it would be interesting to see the names of the three Gem god/Goddesses changed, but I see a problem with it.
    • As Vivari is known as a betrayer and unloving mother to her son's (who later birthed/made the Drakken), there needs to be a reason for her being known as such.
    • in Drakken writing it's said that she gave birth to two females and one male children and listed their elements (and she loved/favoured them more). Mind you it doesn't mention their names.
    • so as soon as the Drakkens found out that the Gems worship Vivari and her other three children, they wouldn't think of worshipping them.


I hoped that helped a bit. But as I said you are free to make up other minor gods and things in the culture of either Gem or Drakken. :)

"I allow and encourage people to make stuff up for the gods/culture. (I like world building)"

About this; I hope you don't mind me having made a few words up for a language that the Unalim speak (and compose their names from) as part of a long standing family tradition nobody can quiet remember when from?
