Religion in PlaneShift
« on: October 17, 2003, 02:24:00 am »
I am not talking about RL religions, so do get all worked up. I am just wondering, are there any guilds centered around the worship of Laanx or Talad? I think that that would be very cool.
Because im new doesn\'t make me a N00B..., well ok it does.

Currently there are no Guilds centered on the belief of Laanx or Talad.

How would you know that there are no guilds which worship Talad/Laanx, Moogy? Just because you\'re mod, doesn\'t mean you know *everything*. That\'s my job you know. :D

No, there are no guilds \"believing \" in Laanx/Talad, as in being strong followers of the two gods, however many individuals believe in the two. At least I believe in Talad, \'cause I know he exists. I\'ve talked to him! OooOOoo! :D

I believe that\'s the first time someone\'s argued with me and agreed with it at the same time.


I meant that there are currently no guilds that have made themselves known in the forums, that worship Laanx or Talad.

heh, ryane :P

There was silverblade\'s guild, I forget exactly what it was about, but there was something about them looking for some god that didn\'t exist...too bad silverblade isn\'t around anymore to clear that up

btw grono, did you know your sig link to the bbb instead of the OI site?

EDIT: ah...here is from their page

Whether they follow one or not, all people of all races, know that there are two gods of this world. Laanx and Talad. At least this is what they think they know. There are a special few who think differently. There were, according to the hunters of hel, actualy 3 gods involved in this underground world. Laanx and Talad, who mean no harm, do what they do to gain faith and respect of their followers. The third god, hel, has a much more sinister regime. For thousands of years, while Laanx and Talad have quarreled, Hel has been waiting. Waiting and hiding. For hel did want to be found. Hel did not want followers. That would be her greatest strength. When she unleashes her power, and spreads desolation all over our perfect environment, no-one will have expected it. No-one will be able to put up any defense. Luckily, we hunters of hel know. You may say we have no proof, but we know. Our ancestors knew, as did our ancestors, ancestors. The Hunters of Hel are dedicated to finding the evil god before it is too late. We know she hides in the stone Labrynth\'s... and we will find her. It is unknown what we may do when we find her, but we will. Until then, she waits. Waits, hides, and grows in might all the while.

That is odd, i dont remeber reading anything about a fourth god named Hel. As far as I know Hel is a god from Norse Mythology.
Because im new doesn\'t make me a N00B..., well ok it does.

Yeah, Silverblade made it up for his guild, I guess so they could have more of a \"purpose\"

Follow-up: Hel is indeed the female ruler of the underworld in Norse mythology, in swedish called Asa-tron ;)
You are quite wellinformed for an american. :P
