Hey a necro.
Those "pro-good" parts is why Gorum is CN, not CE.
Magic and Violence are two completely different things, you can do limitless things with magic. Violence for the sake of violence? Not so much.
I have no idea what you mean by necro.
That's all well and good but the argument is why cant the worshipers be CG, not why isn't Gorum.
That final part was meant to be asinine.

That is missing some key context, though. He is a good of strength. He doesn't kill prisoners and the defenseless because there is no sport in it. Underhanded tactics or for the weak. There is no altruistic intentions. Just the valuing of strength and skill.
Your right that's how Gorum is but worshipers always have there own take always on any religion. So my point still stands that most CE characters wouldn't find worshiping him rewarding at all. His anathema goes against who they are and one of his edicts do as well. "Attain victory through FAIR combat." This is what I get when I search for the definition of a fair fight:
Mutual combat
Mutual combat occurs when two individuals intentionally and consensually engage in a fair fight, while not hurting bystanders or damaging property. In some cases, mutual combat may nevertheless result in killings.
Its nearly impossible to be CE and worship him. It's not really easy as CG but looks much more doable since you already agree with most of his anathema and edicts.
