The Awesome-est God, ever.
« on: December 18, 2011, 01:05:09 am »
In my current No point embark fortress, I have a particular bone-crafter that is set to make crafts on repeat.  He also worships one of the best gods that I have ever heard of.  Here's a figurine.

This is a donkey bone figurine of Otung the Routed Bolt.
The item is an image of Otung the Routed Bolt, the deity of CHAOS, WAR, and FORTRESSES, depicted as a female dwarf in donkey bone by Urist McBonecarver. Otung the Routed Bolt is laboring.

What are some of your best deities?

um thats just a normal goddess of war chaos and fortresses... your crafter made a little miniature statue of her.

Edit: oh but to contribute to the thread, My favorite was a Zal the dented shields of suffering, God of Death, Suicide, and Mountains most often takes the form of a Skeletal Male Dwarf. I had to make it the patron god of the fort and build a giant upturned skull with magma in its mouth in which the deceased were dropped to their final rest. It was before ghosts were in though, that would have been even more epic.

I think that would have still worked if the fortress was filled to the brim with ghosts.

Ya it would have, I just didn't have any I can almost picture the 2z deep magma that was the temples core swarming with the spirits of fallen dwarves. Gosh I miss that fort, it was my temple fort so I had built  temples to each of the Civs gods, but I had never had a god of death, AND suicide be a skeletal dwarf before. It also had a Giant Rat god of trade and jewels. makes me cry knowing that its gone forever because my computer exploded.

Adil the Purple Rocks was a deity that occurs in the myths of the Armor of Sanctums. Adil was most often depicted as a male dwarf and was most often associated with caverns, mountains, volcanos, fires, metals, minerals and jewels.

That's a pretty hardcore god there.

I am often bad at phrasing things - don't hesitate to ask for clarification if something I said doesn't make sense.

I prefer Taron the Competition of Biting, goddess of war and fortresses, who takes the form of a female dwarf.  The best wars are won and lost by biting.

Stelmith was a deity that occurs in the myths of The Massive Gravel.

Stelmith was most often depicted as a female dwarf and was associated with rivers, death and fish.

*sarcasm* I wonder what fish that might be! *sarcasm*

Etur Beras (Earthen Cave), goddess of minerals and metal. Not particularly interesting, but overall the most relevant deity I've seen.

The wife worhips a spider associated with the MOON and FISH and an Orc associated with TORTURE, CRUELTY, and DARKNESS.

Smart couple.  They have their bases covered.

My expedition leader worships this guy:

Quote
Ertal Fortunegilt the Golden Taxes is a deity of the Iron of Coalitions. Ertal most often takes the form of a male dwarf and is associated with wealth.

He is, by far, the most consistently named god I've ever had. Now I have to look up 'Ertal' and see if it means anything to do with money.
