Gnoll deities - Hellstrom - 01-16-2015
Now that gnolls are an officially playable race on Thay and I've seen a number of them around (including mine :D), would it be possible to add one or both gnoll gods to the list of selectable deities?
Gorellik, god of gnolls, hunting, hyenas and hyaenodons &
Yeenoghu, demon lord of gnolls
I'm not talking about adding a temple, I know the general policy on that :) If you need text for the listing I'm sure I could come up with something.
Thanks!

Yeah i play a Gnoll myself as you know! Considering you are now the leader of our was dead but seems still alive because of us being alive haha!

Can I add in a request viz. a viz. goblin deities?
Maglubiyet: a god of war and a great general, he is also known as the Battle Lord - the Leader of the Goblin Pantheon. (Apparently.)
Bargrivyek: the goblin deity of cooperation and territory (cooperation between goblins in order to take territory from others).
Khurgorbaeyag: the goblin deity of slavery, oppression, and morale.
Stalker: the goblinoid deity of hate, death, and cold. (Aragorn?)
Adding them to the list of worshippable deities would be splendiferous... and I'd be happy to put together recruiter scripts and whatnot for a church or two, three, four... Bargrivyek and Khurgorbaeyag seem particularly intriguing... with maybe a recruiter for Maglubiyet in the already established Orcish temple in Bezantur?... and maybe a Stalker recruiter in the Auril temple?... a pair of sort of subsidiary faiths?...

Gorellik (Gnolls) & Maglubiyet (Goblins) would be the canon Faiths & Pantheons options for those races...
They're the only ones I would support adding to our official pantheon mechanically.
I recognize Yeenoghu the most, but he's a demon more than a god, much for the same reason that we have temples to demons (looking at you, Jubilex) but can't actually select them as patron deities...

*Juiblex :P
Of course, 4th Edition had to do its usual tampering and say "Oh, Juiblex? It's really Ghaunadaur! Just like Talos is really Gruumsh, Yondalla is really Chauntea, Hanali Celanil is really Sune...."
Suck the sweat out of my skivvies, 4th Ed. :@

Just like Talos is really Gruumsh
That one is probably the most insulting considering that the two are supposedly rivals and grummesh has nothing to do with anyone but orcs. I feel like whoever mad 4th edition had something against pantheons and was trying to create a single all encompassing Pantheon.
