I don't know who Shelyn is but I love their lil gay bird

[–] SilverGM@ttrpg.network 4 points 2 months ago

Shelyn is the Golarion goddess of art, beauty, and love. Basically the most wholesome being imaginable. She also has two girlfriends: Desna, goddess of stars, travel, and luck, and Sarenrae, goddess of the sun, healing, and redemption.

I don't think this only applies to novice GMs.

IDK what LO: Gods and Magic 44-55 means but I love how it makes this read like a biblical quote

[–] DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Gods and Magic is a Pathfinder Setting book that came out for D&D 3.5, so I think it means "Gods and Magic, pages 44-45".

not sure about LO

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

LO is Lost Omens, which is the Pathfinder setting.

Thanks, that was bugging me!

I'm citing the Pathfinder book Lost Omens: Gods and Magic, pages 44-45. I suppose it does make it kind of read like a bible quote.

My artistic creation is a homebrew setting without such a boring, vanilla, pantheon of gods

[–] TwiddleTwaddle@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I find the many pantheons of the pathfinder universe to be pretty diverse and well thought out personally. Much more dynamic and interesting than the forgotten realms pantheon.

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

I'm personally just not a fan of the reskinned Greek Pantheon approach to deities in fantasy. It leaves little room for the sort of stories about religion that I find interesting. I much prefer an Ebberon style approach where religion is unconfirmed and ambiguous. It allows for things like other structures of religion beyond Greek-style polytheism, such as monotheism, animism, dualism, etc.
