I'm getting an image of a male fertility God like Priapus.  Umm... ew... 

EW! Stop making me think that!

Istbar is a diety of The Smooth Hammers.  Istbar most often takes the form of a female dwarf, and is associated with lies and pregnancy.

Well there's a healthy combination.

Is there a way to check Legends without having to abandon my current fort?

You can make a copy of your save file, and then abandon the fort in the copy.  That way you'll still have your fort in the orignal.

I can't find it now, but I had a deity which was the goddess of Valor, Fortresses and like three other things- the chief deity of the dwarven civ in question, I'd say, since all the Rulers had always worshiped her. She was... a mountain goat.

Thanks!


...Geez, the dwarf gods are dull as crap.

Two of these are not like the others.


Meanwhile, the humans get the depraved lust god and the thunder goddess and the vengeance goddess and...the god of rainbows, the sky, and the moon.

Man, I never get anything interesting in my worlds.

Yeah, I have about a half-dozen deities... That Lancedjewels, probably thanks to having 5 awesome spheres (trade, wealth, jewels, war, forts), has by far the most.

One of my least popular, however, is "Dasel the Trustworthy Virtue", goddess of Consolation (and that's it).

The deity that sounds most elven, however, is the SECOND most popular, who is... a fly.  He represents rain and trees.

(For reference, another popular deity is Eggstak Calldrilled the Courageous Talons, male dwarf deity of Games, Luck, and Valor.  Duthner Containsafes, Male dwarf of Discipline and Law.  (Not deity of my hammerdwarf for some reason.) Luk Letterscribes Poem of Libraries, male dwarf of wisdom, scholarship, and writing.  Etur, female dwarf, Mountains, caverns, and earth.)

How about an entire pantheon?

Code: [Select]
The Perfect Nations - Human
Zitha the Putrid Spurts Skeletal Female Human Disease
Caspa the Directions of Driving Female Human Sun, Dawn
Posa Willfulgleam Female Human Day, Light, Rainbows, Rain, Lightning
Bikdá Rabbitsprang Male Human Moon, Fire, Metals, Crafts, Creation, Pregnancy, Children, Family
Hoth the Smear of Floods Female Human Torture, Misery
Vicu Apesitch Female Human Muck
Jalew Diamondglitter the Satiny Tactics Female Human Beauty, Gambling, Luck, Games
Kasat Female Human Revelry

In my world, Bikdá Rabbidsprang is the one who has the most spheres. I like to imagine that The Perfect Nations is polygamous society, and the men rule all while having an harem of women.

And Caspa the Directions of Driving is the ultimate backseat driver :P

A quick scan of the stocks menu shows that one of the dead pack animals has a bin full of silk cloth!  It is speedily unforbidden, and my moody glassmaker sprints off to retrieve his prize amongst the smoking, charred, blood-soaked ruin that is the outdoors, totally oblivious to the carnage that was instigated on his behalf.

One of my human civs has a kind of kamikaze god - his spheres are war, valor, death, and suicide.  I don't remember the name, though.  Then there's a skeletal human god of the usual death/disease/deformity/etc., but also scholarship and wisdom.  Gotta wonder how that happened.
