So, Lamashtu?

>>97494352
>Gnolls don’t primarily worship her, and they generally fear their gods as much as they venerate them. Gnolls who do join cults of the Mother are seen basically Jonestown-esc maniacs, and most tribes are perfectly willing to cooperate with adventurers hunting them down, to avoid conflict with humanoid settlements and powers
>Goblins worship the Mother as an almost protective force, and have the most “approachable face” of the cult, especially among the slaves in human cities
>> 97495175
Yeah basically

>>97495113
What they do doesn't change based on the lore of their flying spaghetti monster.

>>97496140
Yes, it absolutely does. And even if it didn't, the beliefs of a cult influence their goals, powers, reputation and aesthetic.

>>97496204
So, if the lore of the main bad guys is different from the current lore of the main bad guys, that would mean the players won't fight the main bad guys?

>>97496140
The appearance, demeanor, behavior, goals and projects, of a cult are all absolutely informed and directly related to the appearance, demeanor, behavior, goals and projects of their god.

I wish there was non-Evil branch of the cult, or alternative non-Evil deity with similar portfolio.

So what like a porn adaptation?

I don't know why you post even when you are retarded nogames fag. https://greyhawkonline.com/greyhawkwiki/Yeenoghu

>>97494179
Various redemption cults exist amongst the civilized races, believing that ALL life was descended from this figure. Most believe that civilization, law, and ethics are mere pretentions made by their apostacy against their mother. They yearn to return to their natural state, and commune with monsters to destroy civilization.

>>97499527
my point remains.
If you're using an established setting why bother taking bits and pieces? You're still doing all the work of creating shitbrew no one cares about while still reading about someone elses garbage setting.

>>97499641
More like you being a dumb nogames who gargles cocks remains.

>>97499677
says the faggot who is too dumb and lazy to use the source setting OR create their own setting and is on /tg/ begging for ideas

>>97499848
Yes, you are the faggot here, nogames

>>97499641
I’m not using an established setting though? Yeah the gnoll god is called “Yeenoghu”, because this is a setting for a game with my friends, I’m not gonna sued by WOTC for using it.

Also you’re fucking stupid, considering that everything else there isn’t Forgotten Realms lore.

>>97494179
I don't have any good ideas, but if you add Demons and Aberrations to the list, that could give your logic more stability.

Maybe the worldbuilding thread or writing thread would be able to help you better with your secondary lore problem.

isnt the mother of monsters and folklore monsters the current Hulk comic plot.

The non-evil version of Lamashtu is unironically an IRL Sumerian goddess known as Inanna. One of the oldest female deities recorded with almost every divine sphere under the sun, including monster creation.

Isn't Inanna just another name for Ishtar?
And if we're talking IRL deities isn't Cybele more apropriate?

>>97494179
Give her some monsters to be the Mother of.

Something with minotaurs and milk? Like she's the mother of their kind so they have a thing about milk as the source of life?

>>97508462
They're originally not the same goddess (they're from differentMesopotamian cultures), but similar enough that they were often synchretized together, like how Aphrodite and Venus were treated as the same goddess by the Romans (Aphrodite incidentally is yet another Inanna-Ishtar, as she seems to have originated as the Greek version of the same deity that got adapted to fit the Greek pantheon).

>>97509140
To be fair, it's unclear how much Innana and Ishtar were alike before Sargon and his daughter combined them.
