Just an Idea!

I think yer religion should be a little more than just a guidline for RP, and one word in yer score sheet. WOuld it be plausible to give certain "perks" for the religion you choose. Nothing big time mind you , but along the lines of say greed = more gold for sacrifices. just a thought, i'm not saying it's needed, but it would be another way to truly customize ones character making even the same race/class combo able to be that much different from one another. ANy thoughts...?

There are certain things that religion affects already, though we won't get into too many specifics here on the forum. Certain spells and prayers and skills are affected by religion.

Also, perks do offer the types of things you mention, though they are selectable independent of religion.

Yeah I know what yer talking about Chayesh. I was thinking of a more broad affects.........was just a thought though.......

I think it would be cool if each religion had a counter-religion...ie Chaos and Tranquility, and areas could be consumed by a religion...like if a tranquil were in an area dominated by chaos their prayers were less affective, whereas a chaos in a tranquil area was unable to fight at full potential because of his enviroment. Also would be cool if there were a system for their being mortal leaders of each religion, heroes are kind of like that but underused drastically. Would be cool if FL could have like religous wars, with mortal leaders and churches.

EDIT: OOH! The religion of the area could be determined by the religion of the character who conquered it with cabal warfare.

Heh, then we can have the Inquisition!

Note that you do have the "who religion" command to use.

Feel free to abuse it to help people of your religion and oppress others. Your RP is your own.

One of my very favorite characters was a DK who wouldn't kill anyone who followed the One God.

Ever.

He even died once and lost a lvl 5 malform because of it.
