If EQ was real life. Which god would you worship and why?

VenorikVelglarn · 01-25-2006, 05:40 AM

If Norrath was earth, and the stuff in EQ was part of real life. (And i know a few probibly wish it was) Which god would you follow and why?

Which class would you be? And who where would you live. To start the ball rolling, I'd be a paladin, in service to Quellious. The reason for this is because as a paladin in her service, i would fight to bring peace in the time of strife and war that Norrath is facing, to bring an end to the Overlord, and to insure the safety of qeynos.

backya · 01-25-2006, 05:46 AM

probly be one of the good ones, maybe one a good guardian would, after all no one want to go to hell, but then again there are ways you could keep ur self alive. but maybe you could be a necromancer and at the same time worship a good god and be spared an after life of suffering, hmmmm hard question lol.

Renita_Serafim · 01-25-2006, 06:02 AM

Zebuxoruk the Ungod, 'cause he's the only god that actually wants mortals to suceed and genuinely improve their own lives. This is the guy who risked his freedom to try and teach mortals the secrets of godhood. You gotta respect him for that.

Jaranna · 01-25-2006, 06:20 AM

Knowing what I know (and what my character believes), I'd probably be agnostic. I have a hard time thinking highly of anyone who bickers as much as the Norrathian pantheon does.Like my character, I would probably honor the Ro family, with Erollisi in there as well.

Are you saying EQ ISN'T Real life?!? (Tries to get out of his straitjacket).

Seriously though, I would probably be agnostic at this point, until I found my footing. I've only recently become very interested in the EQ lore, and I'm lovin' it so far.

Cercs · 01-25-2006, 08:52 AM

My character Cercsij worships the Marr Twins. However, if I was actually my character (or someone else) in a real Norrath I would have to either go agnostic or worship Erolissi Marr. I would stay at home safe in Qeynos with a 5 bedroom house with my wife and kids. I would be an avid artisan, make a decent living doing so, get old and die. No dangerous adventuring for me if I was really in Norrath! I'm a coward! :smileytongue:But ya, either agnostic or Erolissi Marr.

Actually Zebuxoruk is more like the God of Apathy in that aspect though. He doesn't care what anyone does.

ZEBUXORUK! YOU JUST WON THE SUPER BOWL! What are you gonna do next!?

... Meh. Whatever.

juz · 02-03-2006, 01:02 AM

LOL

Nice one Cusa

Diern · 02-03-2006, 09:02 AM

If it was real life and their were gods. I would believe in them all, but I wouldnt worship any of them .....

Tunare cause in fact, I like to hump trees

tilerwenisba · 02-03-2006, 11:30 PM

For me it would be Innoruk, hate gives you purpose, direction, and power.

Zabjade · 02-05-2006, 04:03 PM

I would like to see more lore on "The Nameless" who created Norrath in the first place. the only Lore htat I have seen came from the Offical Pen and paper RPG version. and of course Lumena's website.

Cusashorn · 02-05-2006, 09:57 PM

The only Lore that exists on the Nameless is that it just is.

It's the big bang. It has no appearance. It has no intellegent thought. It just is.

LacrossePatri · 02-06-2006, 05:21 AM

I havent become very involved in the Everquest lore myself yes, but i'm pretty sure i wouldn't worship any god. Possibly believe in them and their power, but I would only bow to something more corporeal.As for class.. Berserker. Sure, i play a Shadowknight now, but that would be a little difficult without drawing my powers from the Pantheon (:

Kamimura · 02-06-2006, 10:14 AM

I'd probably be.. a conjurer, maybe a cleric or druid. If I could sing I'd be a dirge. :p Worship either Prexus or Solusek Ro I guess.. dunno why really.

AbsentmindedMage · 02-07-2006, 04:13 PM

Quellious. I like the philosophy behind this god. The followers of Quellious "are not strict pacifists, though, and will fight to defend themselves and their loved ones. The peace they seek is an inner one. They wish to know all there is to know about themselves and the world around them. They wish to know as much as they can, and help others learn as well so they can reach a state of enlightenment. They are deep thinkers, and prefer to travel throughout the world, hoping to find a light or helpful hint to what they are supposed to do."That philosophy pretty much sums up my Everquest 2 life style. Always trying to help someone (doing the countless quests), always trying to improve myself (gain levels), always trying to discover everything I can (exploring, finding things before others, learning languages, reading books, etc...). lol, always in a state of trying to find a helpful hint about what I am suppose to do (thank you ogaming.com)

Kondul · 02-07-2006, 07:14 PM

Karana, there's few things in life I've seen as impressive as a poweful storm. Race/class wise i'd likely be a Dwarf, either a Monk, Swashbuckler, or Templar/Cleric.

Trepan · 02-09-2006, 02:18 AM

Since its cold and flu season, I'd probably worship Bertoxxulous... but then, Valentine's Day is coming, so I'd burn some incense for Erolisi Marr.

Bertoxxulous is the god of Disease. Unless you truely enjoy suffering from a flu, wouldn't you rather worship Rodcet Nife, God of Health and Healing instead?

Renita_Serafim · 02-09-2006, 02:31 AM

If choosing Zebuxoruk as a diety in these "if you had to choose a diety to worship" threads is somewhat of a cheat seeing as he's sort of a god of agnostics, I suppose I'd have to choose Saryrn instead (my Teir'Dal Beserker on Antonia Bayle worships Saryrn, BTW). Get stuck in a pick up group full of d00ds long enough, and I bet anyone would feel like player killing them all in the most painful way possible.

Zeb is the *UNOFFICIAL* God of Apathy and Indifference. He doesn't care if you worship him. Why should he?

:p

... Seriously though. Before PoP, his description stated that the didn't care if anyone worshiped him and took no interest in anything anyone ever did.

We followers of Bertie (as we like to call him behind closed doors after a round of Robo shots) believe that the only way to get rid of the flu is to give it away. The same goes for colds, chicken pox, disentary and (depending on which internal sect you belong to) bed-head.

Bandyspri · 02-20-2006, 05:39 AM

I'd probably be a Barbarian Paladin or Guardian who worshipped The Tribunal. Cold justice.

I am forced to agree here... However my second would be Rallos Zek

Azuraelle · 02-20-2006, 05:58 PM

Solusek Ro would be my first choice. Rallos Zek would be the second.

vinterskugge · 02-21-2006, 12:59 AM

Rallos Zek. I like hitting things with axes for no reason other than I can.

Tamat · 02-21-2006, 01:56 AM

If EQ were real I would likely be a god or demi god myself so I would worship no god! Muhahahahahahaha

Renita_Serafim · 02-22-2006, 12:46 AM

Right now, I'm feeling an inclination towards worshipping Druzzil Ro so that she can make time go forward by a couple of hours and let us play Kingdom of Sky. *laughs*

lillin · 02-23-2006, 10:53 AM

Terris Thule goddess of nightmares.
