Dieties of a Comical Nature
« on: July 22, 2008, 09:50:22 pm »

Alright, so far I've seen: So-and-so the Safety of Blankets and So-and-so the Greennesseses(seriously) that I can remember off the top of my head, any other good dieties out there?

The Safety of Blankets makes a funny image for its' followers in my head: ie. "And he cameth down from high, his holiest of cribs, and had with him a blanket.  And the masses said unto him, "Whatith is with yon blanket" and he said unto them, "This is the symbol of my people and my love, and the protection which you seek and the comfort which you need.  This will keep thee company when all others fail and shall warm thy heart in sickness.  This is my Safety Bwankey"

I don't remember his name exactly but I had a Dwarven male deity that was associated with pregnancy, birth, creation, rebirth, death, and murder. I picture him with a large necklace of aborted fetus' tied together by their umbilical cords.

What? It's funny if you're into dead baby humour

The Hole of Oiling is usually associated with Caverns and Dirt... particularly dirty things.

I had a god of marriage, love, birth... and deformity. From a civ whose main export was uranium, presumably.
Also, I once met Bekat, male human god of food, agriculture, fertility and murder.
That's basically Cain (of Cain and Able) right? It's creeping me out.

<something> Pantsquest, deity of strength, lust and depravity. Because nothing is as funny as rape.



Rubsit Itchboil the Lurid Hag deity of deformity and disease. Because it's just so fitting.




Alu Gullyflower, deity of suicide and agriculture. What?



Eslo Glacialrock the Fair Bean of Sculptures, deity of fire, the sun and animals. Seriously, what? These human gods are strange.

What could be more dwarven than working yourself to death?

Because human corpses make excellent fertilizer?

My dwarves live in a swamp, eat turtles and use wooden/bone weapons, and breed constantly. There also seems to be a history of insanity among every single one of them - kids have it tough here. They are the backwater hicks of Dwarf Fortress.

Handily, here's who the majority worship:



They worship a squirrel.

They seem to have a taste for fire, too, which is a bad combination: fuzzy animal + fire = charred remains.

Here's a few from a new world:

- Kasmko the Muffin of Toasts: Male human diety of family. 
- Lorbam Ruledguises "The Mountain Goat god": a dwarven diety associated with fame, rumors and mountains.  Those wacky dwarves.  The same clan of dwarves, "The Oracular Axe" also worship a Male Carp named Uker.
- Sharul Carnalmenaces: Male dwarve of Lust, deprevity, death, disease and deformity.  I don't know why, but it makes me think of the circus...is that worng?
- Something I've never seen is also present: Slek, the rotting male human deity of death, blight, disease and deformity.
- Thuthu Wastecaves the Barbarian of Dung: Male human of Longevity and muck.  =->  The Spirit of the all-day spa is strong in these ones.
- Rodnul Manortugged: Female dwarf of labor and torture!  Or marriage, am I right fellas, eh? eh?  Am I right?  Eh?  Ahh, I'm just kidden.
- Ber, the Guppy of fish
- Len Bronzeyelled, the Fly Diety of creation
- Rithlut the Dignifid Pine, a Giant Mole of Charity

If any of my friends said they joined cults like these I'd slap them.  =->

the spinning bb round hits jack johnson, scumbag in the lower body!
it is pierced through entirely!
his right kidney has been poked out!
his liver has been mangled!

jack johnson, raider has been shot and killed.

The above (including bbcode) neatly weighs in at 255 characters. Fallout meets DF
