Why doesn't this section have a single log of religious RP? Not a single conversation much less something that goes to the heart of what each religion is about.

Would someone be willing to share what in their opinion is a good log about their religions? It doesn't have to be about present day happenings but to see a good portrayl of a priest, paladin, or hellion would be very instructive for those who have never been in a religion and might spark some interest in joining one.

Edit: I posted this after reading the call for more people to consider playing a priest. My thoughts are if they knew more the religion and how to play a priest it wouldn't be a mystery what kinds of characters each religion might attract and how to portray one.

Technically this forum isn't about religions exactly. As the description of the forum says, it's a place where you can ask gods questions out of character.

Sorry Dulrik. I didn't mean to come off as if I was indicting this forum. My thrust was supposed to be towards asking religious RPers to display their best stuff somewhere in the forums as examples to work from for those who have not made clergy before.

If I read you right, you are making it clear that this forum does not serve that purpose. After reading the short introductions to each forum it seems that Gameplay would be the right forum for this sort of thing.

If anyone would like to share some good religious RP as examples of what your faith enjoys and expects so that others might join you, please post in the Gameplay section.

This is against the rules of the forum. If you want to see logs of religious RP (or otherwise) your best bet would be to ask specific persons for it. If you are interested in very "traditional" Sargasian RP logs, drop me a PM with your email.

Either that or make a request on mrp's forum. There's plenty of ppl out there with good religious RP logs.

In fact, I might go post one right now. 8)

That log is hardly outstanding (i know i'm going to get outclassed before the day is out, but hey, it's an old log :oops: ) but i wanted to start the idea of posting religious rp logs going.

Trag has a decent one here:

Too bad it's unedited and sux. I've seen him do -so- much better. :roll: Must have been a lazy day.

I'm not sure how helpful this is. Religious characters have a great deal of freedom to define their religion. You're stuck with a god's aura, what qualities he takes interest in, and sometimes a few rules of behavior. However, you can define and prioritize those qualities of interest almost any way you like. The more thought you put into it, the better roleplay you'll get out of it.

Some religions. Others the HF are strict about their views being the only right views.
