I see it as, yeah they are divine magic beings but the wanna-be gods of the world are driven by the desire to kill all the other wanna-be gods and send them to the plane where they get summoned back after 10,000 years as crippled crazed Tartarians.
In Dom3 Divinity = Organised crime family in the middle of a turf war.
So Eagle Kings are very understandable, your either with them or you fry. |
No. The pretender is totally distinct from the nation. Sure, the pretender just wants to kill all the other wannabe gods and send them to tartarus. But that has nothing to do with what the *nation* wants. Roleplaying a pretender chassis is totally different than roleplaying a nation.
Now, the nation ends up worshipping the pretender gods. But why? How? Of course, there are many possible answers, but all of these are going to have nuances based on the people in charge. And since I don't know how an EK thinks, because its totally incomprehensible to mortals, I can't figure out why they follow a pretender god.
