Since (at least from what I can tell) we'll be free to make up just about any religion we want and if we can take over a house it will be an official house religion I was wondering what religions, if any, people might be introducing to the game. I think it was a pretty clever move on Lyra's part allowing people to completely be in charge of who is in charge of a house and what the house will represent. I know its probably a little early but what do you guys (and girls ;D ) think?
Personally I think my new character will probably not be much of a fanatic (I could never get into the whole fanatic thing, which made playing Nighthawk difficult for me). Maybe my new character will be like the nihilists from Big Labowski... Yeah... Or maybe they'll be Almish... Almonds are pretty strange and kind of fanatical though...
Heh, I just wanted to call them almonds.

P.S. What? I'm not even advanced now? I hate you MMORPG.com! Make me leet!

More than likely, my character will take the stance that most religions tend to do; religion is a really good way to control people and keep them docile. Thus, my character may be outwardly docile but laughing within. It really depends on where I take it - I'm very much envisioning a Steerpike character myself.
...not exactly sure how I'm gonna play the beliefs (or religion) just yet. I have Malamenz's backstory worked out already, whats gonna drive him forward, and what ideals he'll have, but deciding on what in-game beliefs and which house to join/take over I keep flip flopping on. Really all I can do at this point is to wait and see what my options will be once I can log in.
On a side note, I've always been a pistacio kinda guy.... almonds are over-rated.
....and life goes on
Im planning to make my character a zealot from a very BC-type religion, such as - everything that doesnt perfectly align with the beliefs, or at least stay out of way, is an enemy.
Ps, i love this style of forum.
I've thought of making one character an athiest hardcore freesoul type that hardly even believes he's dreaming let alone anything else fanatical, and another character really mystical and evil. Never really put in depth about a religion, but I imagine that would be in the character's shardic life and not brought so much into the dream anyhow. Gotta work on the characters more.
Plan on having my character develop his belief within the game itself...
Like last time i would guess once his mind is made up he will be loyal to those beliefs forever :-)
