War of Immortals: Battle between Thoth and Nethys, and later between Osirion Pantheon and Hag Pantheon, and more

[Cori Marie]

My guesses to the specific edicts/anathema causing PFS problems (looking at the Demiplane table)

Lubaiko: Edict: Set fires Anathema: Calm crowds, douse fires
Sekhmet: Edicts: Slaughter your enemies, drink the blood of defeated foes
Set: Edict: murder those who stand in your way

[Arkat]

So the "web supplement" hasn't been released yet?

[CorvusMask]

Nah, but they seem to be visible on Demiplane.

[Cori Marie]

No, but Demiplane's appendix for the book seems to have the sections that aren't in the final printed book (like Osirion Gods)

[CorvusMask]

well now its out :O

[Perpdepog]

Specifically, it's here.

It just occurred to me that Rahadoumis must either be gloating, in a "well, well, well, look who just found out gods are more trouble than they're worth" sense, or pulling their hair out in exasperation because people keep popping up with Mythic Power that the Pure Legion has to put down. Either way, I can't imagine they're happy at the chaos caused by beings they officially renounced.

[CorvusMask]

That's the actual canon, they started celebrating until Godrain shenanigans started happening

[Archpaladin Zousha]

Yeah, there's a lot of debate going on there about "how do we treat people who recieved divine power they didn't ask for? Do we treat them same as we would an actual cleric and shun, shame or incarcerate them accordingly, or do we regard them more as victims of what's for lack of a better term a medical condition?"

But that's only in the halls of power. For the average Rahadoumi village, where even the Green Faith druids helping combat Rahadoum's desertification are treated with suspicion, mobs are forming to take matters into their own hands.

[Souls At War]

Guessing it isn't a fun time for the Hellknights either, especially for the Pyre, and to a lesser degree, the Rack.

Are we to believe that Set and Horus or others buddied up? Doesn't make much sense.

Um... yes? Set was one of Re's most ardent defenders against Apep? There is obviously the longstanding rivalry with Horus and the murder of Osiris, but he was still depicted as a leader and an extremely important God within Kemetic myth.

Perennial reminder that Seti I and II were both named after Set still conceived of as being divine manifestations of Horus on earth. This is one of the reasons I'm with keftiu - Kemetic mythology and culture is vastly more nuanced than what fantasy RPGs tend to portray and it really needs an RPG dedicated to IRL mythology to do it justice (games like Scion spring to mind). Set is vastly more than a one note evil deity and bluntly, the way Pathfinder has portrayed him bothers me more and more as time goes on.

That’s an issue with media in general thanks to Conan. See what Vampire the Masquerade did.

I think it’s a issue if you apply the old alignment system and apply them to actual mythological figures who are worshiped and portrayed differently and have thousands different retellings

From the Mexica take Tezcatlipoca or the smoking mirror. He was associated with conflict, obsidian, the night sky and his titles include “enemy of both sides” and “he who we are all slaves too”

Seems like a pretty malignant entity? But he was also god of slaves. Not slavery. Enslaved people. As in he protected enabled people from abuse.

At least the Egyptian gods are given some kind of respect. See how like Mesoamercian or any indigenous American religion are portrayed in popular culture.

Also it feels less down lessbecause of story purposes and more to do with legal bullshit following the OGL. With the hags needing a rewrite.
