Since there's now a choice of forum deities to follow, I'm wondering where best to place my devotion. I think I need to know how vengeful the deities are?

For example, I know that we refer to the TCoRN deity as N_sh to avoid using His Name in vain or swearing in a public forum. Now, what would happen if I accidentally used His actual name, Nash? I mean would I be blasted all to...

Umm...

Uh oh.

There is nothing to fear from nash.

Just consider this:  The Orator Maleficent hosts Pseudopod.  He wanted to do more, so he locked Mr. Eley in a dungeon. 

You tell me who to fear.

I would just like to say that while the other two guide you through life, I'm the only one qualified to guide you to your hereafter. Heradel will get you there*.

Golconda?  Or is that before your services?

TCoRN has had a closed membership roll for quite a while.  Although we do accept any prayers made in the proper form.  Proper respect shown to the church will be remember at the time of the reckoning

So, this $100-dollar bill thing. Does it have to be $US? 'Cause here down-under, I have none handy.

On the backs of two Aussie $100 bills.

Three? There are many, many more than that. I've got a pair of goggles fashioned by Saint Darwin himself that will open your eyes to another world, man. People and things you thought had vanished long ago. You could also pick up a copy of Origin of the Spirits to help guide your adventures, but just make sure you trust the lenses. Seeing really is believing.

Not Deity exactly, more like a guide. A guide to places you can only go one, unless you pick the reincarnation option.

My High Priest wanted to offer him that position way back at the time of the founding.  We just never got around to sainting anybody.

So little deities to choose from, so much faith...
wait...
flip those.

I'd like to hear my options, so I could weigh them, what do you say?
Five pounds?  Six pounds? Seven pounds?

You could always join me in the First Circle of Hell, the final resting place for the Righteous Non-Believers. We're pretty much Anarchists down here, passed over by both gods and devils, left alone to do as we will. It's not as bad as it sounds, really, living in the Suburbs of Hell. Although the neighbors can get...rowdy at times.
