> Let's put it this way : I don't think it's wrong for an imperial to believe that his god's religion is the one true religion Doubt this really cleared anything up.
> I have seen imperials bow down to one god and spit on the other as a character, claiming that there is only one rightfull god in the empire. I do not understand this since both are gods and should be respected, and how would this affect a mortal (imperial) that bows down to the opposite god or so. I would think one would not grant you a Council seat if they see you are of the other god because he cannot trust you.

of the empire. For example, if I'm the Emperor and a follower of Zulghinlour, I would never openly
show disrespect to Agathocles, but I might put a council together that consists of those players who
fall under Zulghinlour's spheres (preferably tattooed followers) or are at least sympathetic. I might
play it that all those sympathetic to Agathocles are to be anathemized. This away I am assured of my
power and the stability of my reign while I promote my god's interests. There are certain reprocutions
to acting in such a fashion, but I don't see it as being improbable nor would I see it as being wrong.
