From Bolt of Glory description: The bolt can only be used on true supernatural evils though, which includes demons, hellions, horrors, necromancers, old ones, undead, and priests of evil heart. Would this mean if there was a priest worshiping a gray faith, but was a miscreant that they would be effected, or does it only apply to dark faith priests? |

It is completely aura-based. If you are a dark priest serving a gray god, you'll be effected. If you are a gray priest serving a dark god (for shame) you will not be effected. |

Let's look at the dark Gods listing from help immortal Code: Algorab, God of Fear . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (Fear, Tyranny, Vengeance) H
Dabi, Star of Slaughter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .(Hate, Destruction, Rage) Sadr, Goddess of Disease . . . . . . . . . . . . . (Disease, Pain, Suffering) Sargas the Smiter. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .(War, Conquest) H Thuban, Quintessence of Untruth. . . . . . . . . (Deceit, Intrigue, Betrayal) Out of those, the only one I can possibly see a grey priest in would be Sargas. The rest are pretty hardcore evil. Seriously... if you are the HF of these faiths please get detect aura up and look at your recruits before investing them. We as players need to prevent this form of tomfoolery. |

What if you only worship an "aspect" of a certain god? Personally, I could see that as a valid attestation of faith, worthy enough to be invested. And, in that case, a lot more is open to grey auras in the above list. Deceit, for example. For the sake of self-interest, as opposed to harm, is a pretty grey aura'd motif. |

Thuban is a form of the old God Az'Pook, the most evil of evil. Any HF that knew his roots would say, sure you can get invested, only to enslave, beat, lie, cheat, and then dump them in an empty field because their heart is too corrupted to understand the untruth. |

As was told to me... Az'Pook changed his name to Dreddnahr after he lost all his followers, this was after Dulrik threw him in a deep pit for being a naughty boy. Later He had a child with a mortal his concubine Finola. His daughter was named Jinnahra, and later Dreddnahr handed the reigns of the faith over to her, not entirely by choice. Then when Jinnahra had her bout with Meissa she remerged with Az'Pook once more to form the modern version of Thuban, hence the female form of Thuban yet the God is oft referred to as a He. So indeed the modern version of Thuban is part Az'Pook, the God of old. If I am incorrect, I would *love* to hear the faiths procession from Dreddnahr => Thuban, but this is what Ghent has read/heard from various sources IC. |

That does no way make him an alter form of Az'Pook. It is almost as if Meissa is another form of Sargas or Alshain, since she was borin in the mountain they fought. And regarding grey aura priests of dark aura Gods... I say a big fat NO! I can understand grey aura folllowers of laity, but certainly not for clergy. It is the same way for lightie faiths. Clergy are supposed to be TOTALLY devoted to the Lord's/Lady's will, thir God wouldn't/shouldn't approve else for the utter bless he/she offers to the clergy, not tolerating the worship of ONE ASPECT of their entity/spheres. |
