I'm starting my own campaign of Kingmaker after the holidays and had a sit down with my players last week to go over character creation and to give out a bit of info on the adventure path. My players thankfully worked together on creation and came up with a pretty rounded group covering all the bases and doubling up on a few critical ones.
My concern though is that 3 of the 6 players are choosing to be athiest and incorporating that heavily into their backstories. A 4th had chosen to only pay lip service to a diety, and that mostly because of a requirement of a prestige class he wants to dip into later. Only my cleric and druid have characters interested in the Gods, and neither of them chose one of the core dieties of the area. I dont wanna force the others into religious characters but feel they may miss out on a bunch of the fun I planned regarding Gorum, Torag and Erastil.
As a very green GM, not really sure how I should handle it.
