Just as long as nobody confuses her with cloacina, things will go down smoothly and nobody will get hurt.
I looked up that goddess, and all I can say is that the Roman priesthoods had far too much time on their hands.   :o

Guardian of the Sewer.

I don't like Romans, but that is a new level of wierd.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).

Apparantly one of their mythological creatures is a mule that fires dung like a cannon.

Good mercy, Romans. What was wrong with you?

I'm pretty sure egyptian mythology, greek mythology and catholic saints will have similar weird things, though maybe not one as weird a combination as sewers and maritial intercourse

Their God rides a Chariot made out of Freakin' Angels.
They had giant locusts and UFOs flying about.
Dinosaurs breath freakin' fire.
Yeah, they've got their fair share of wierd shit.

Now....... imagine the terror that a "bay12 group report" on "roman mythology" would induce in your averahe highschool teacher.

:D

If you think cloacina is good, you should check out crepitus and priapus!

Those romans, so silly!

Gallo-Roman bronze statuette of Priapus (or a Genius cucullatus?) discovered in Picardy, northern France, made in two parts, with the top section concealing a giant phallus.

My personal text is in itself a attempt to be witty, making fun of the fact that peoples personal text usually are trying to make a witty one liner. Possibly a reference to the game or just a generally humorous. You may also find that this signature is not used to regurgitate someone else's joke in a attempt to immortalize that they felt but instead have just joined a crowd of people who are to hung onto past feeling, but is used to better explain the personal text.

I have had a moment like this recently. Only instead of water it rains human blood that bruises everthing it hits (it was enough to kill all of my chickens) and gives naseua and fevers. It rained on a seige once. It was the best thing ever.

why would you need rain for a farming plot anyway (to return to OP). Either you can farm it or not, since rain won't make muddy stone.

Don't the crops need to be watered?
