Fist... I don't doubt that you work harder at it than I do. I'm just saying you're doing a lot of needless work. And really, it looks like I can go away for a week and still be no less effective in all of these games than you.

Plus, I got to see live midget porn.

At this point, I am curious which deities still have prophets.
I miss that listing in the stats...

A listing of prophets would help me with musing over which one may have left whom.
Although, my guess would be one to the other between Halideva and Madadeva.
...but that's merely a wild guess.

Devaguhya / Madadeva has not had a prophet since Devaguhya's was reduced to goo! :lol:

I cannot speak for Halideva.

But if the Worldbreaker is out ... he would have the power to turn a phrophet.


Another point of interest ... Madadeva's primary Corruptor Hunger ... became vile because of the loss of his daughter ... her brutal murder. A theme we saw played out to a lesser extent with the Lords. The murder of children affect parents profoundly!
He/She who dies with the most toys wins! Wait a minute ... I can't die!!!

Hmm, what could cause a prophet to defect? (I think I'm safe, since my prophet hasn't even been one a full turn yet.)

Off the top of my head, I could imagine that proper applications of the Desire or Knowledge domains might do it. Probably War as well, or simply being possessed by the power of some strong enemy NPC.

Imagine if The Fool were to foolishly handle one of Argothoth's shards?

I just hope it's not Leviathan. Is he a prophet, or just a creature?

What if Raucous rises as an Ash Dracolich?

I'll answer the question about Leviathan, given that this is something the deities would know: Leviathan is/was still a Prophet, even though he changed considerably since his anointment.

It is interesting - and ironic - that the past has returned with such strength this turn, even as time itself has shifted...

EDIT: Also, there are at least seven Manifested gods running around Eiran this turn... plus a couple of not-exactly-gods showing up :D

A player has been very unlucky this turn, and since life has a habit of kicking you where it hurts, to top it all, he/she has been defeated in a struggle AND has had a Prophet killed by unrelated events (those pesky adventurers...).
