When i was playing in the old days of live, i loved reading about the gods. And was wondering who everyone likes, be it looks, or backstory story or what not.

I always loved the look of Solusek Ro/ Terrin Thule :D

I dont per say like the god Bertoxxulous but I totally love the story of his acolytes the Bloodsabers and Varsoon the Undying.

Master Wu the Enlightened was transformed into the Demi-God of Serenity before the Planes of Power happened. As a parting gift before giving up his plane's existence due to the mortal's interference, he created a katar consisting of 5 blades that each represented 1 of the 5 aspects of Serenity. This weapon was given to a monk and entrusted to the Ashen Order at T'Narev to guard until it was needed again.
It was used in the Battle of Defiance, where it struck the killing blow against the Avatar of War, and then consequently shattered. Each blade was entrusted to a monk to guard, but each monk ended up going their separate ways. Some of them being corrupted by evil.

There isn't a favorite deity, there's only one: Innoruuk. The others are his puppets.

Bristlebane for sure.

Solusek Ro is cool too.

I've always liked the story/mystery behind Norrath's lesser (known) characters more, particularly the named sphinxes in Rathe Mountains and their once intended connection to / involvement with the Paladin epic, but also...

Mayong seeking godhood/demigod status, at one point having Maestro's graphic only to be returned to dark elf form and then of course removed.

Tserrina being a dark twist on the classic tale of the princess needing to be rescued from an isolated tower.

Firiona acting as a sort of elven Joan of Arc, initially depicted as a Wizard with robes and a scepter, then later revealed to be a Paladin.

D'Lere exerting his authority over an entire city except for the business district surrounding the bank...somehow prevented from overtaking it by those weak, lower level nfp guards.

Dain having a scar/grimace similar to The Hound. Don't remember reading any lore about how that disfigurement came to be.

In terms of appearances in game, Tunare has the strongest fashionquest; Innoruuk and his spiffy outfit/upturned pimp shoes are a close second. Beyond the classic timeline? Mithaniel Marr or Bertoxxulous. Even though neither bear much resemblance to the original artwork, they still look the part graphically. Bertoxxulous as a demonic insect is more fitting than the elephant man/hunchback drawing of 1999. In game, Fizzlethrope always reminded me of Ratso from Midnight Cowboy. A satyr/pan/faun might have been a better fit for a trickster god, but he does have that shit-eating grin going for him at least. One thing that always seemed odd—he is the only male halfling without hair on his feet.

I enjoy Brell Serilis Lore.. I also enjoy Erudite lore... So Brell is my choice!! The lore with him and his creations battling Heretics of Old Paineel is super interesting :)

I like Cazic-Thule. No one serves him willingly, they all do it out of fear.

My favorite thing about euridite lore is how much they say the word Eurid in it.

I always liked the concept/zone behind Innoruuk, hated the design they went with for him though. Bertox got an awesome (no pun intended) fleshing out in PoP. That design/zone was one of the best.

Lets be real based on appearances alone, cazic thule is the god of poop.

I mean, if I had to chose from a police line up of all the gods to find out which one of them pooped in freeport and I didn't know anything about them?

Id point my finger at CT first every time.

When I used to read the book back in the day I always thought Veeshan the Wurm Queen l was a cool deity.

Erollisi Marr is basically the Norrath Jesus. I like her a lot.


I also really liked Bristlebane as a kid and always choose it for my Bard or Rogue, but now that I'm older I'm pretty sure that Bristlebane might be a giant frat boy jerkoff....

Prexus always interested me too. Besides that most deities are kinda meh or forgettable to me.

Zek. Just smash. No judgement unless no smash. Then you smash. And when too old and feeble to smash, you get smash. I even have a bard who smash drums.

While I am sure over 20 or so years they have been fleshed out more I always thought that its silly to dedicate yourself to one aspect of either being a decent person gone to the extreme or being a varying versions of a cunt.
Always being a hater
Or being a bugchaser (dont google it)
or just constantly loving all the time just in general, not even loving nature and shit.. just sitting around loving.
or cheating people out of their everquestpoker earnings with extra everquestcards

And I am sure if the everquest team ever dedicated themselves to giving more into Veeshan we would be into Warlords of Draenor tier horse shit of other worlds and interplanetary travel using magic rocks and sticks.

Cazic Thule.

His updated model on Live looks appropriately great, instead of like the giant lumpy potato man he did on Classic.

I like Karana, and in POP I loved Plane of Storms & the Bastion of Thunder. So gotta go with the K-man.

Should've made this a poll tbh.

Bertox and the bloodsabre temple maybe most atmospheric in classic. The Freeport Inny human cult lives in a dump and a collection of storage sheds.

p.s. I almost NEVER pick agnostic on a character. Even the Dark Elf enchanter I have worships Inny.

I mean , it gives your character a little more flavor. Agnostic should be more restricted than it is. In a world full of magic and clerics, you can't afford to not pick a side.

Dolalin
10-05-2019, 04:31 PM
Agnostic should mean everyone hates you equally as a heathen.

Has to be Cazic Thule. Fear is the only plane where it's Raining Bloooooooooood

Speaking of that amazing song, I can verify that that chaotic solo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8ZqFlw6hYg&feature=youtu.be&t=173) at the 2:53 mark is exactly what it sounds like as a bard when you run thru the fire ring and start kiting all the shadowknights trying to harmtouch you while you have group Divine Aura on.
