The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers

Which god do you want to see in Dresden Files?

(1/4) > >>

Con:
So by the Wrestling book we'll see a few more Gods which one do you want to see the most?

Personally I'm interested in the Greek Gods family dynamic as according to Jim Hades, is the sane one and has made analogies to Arrested Development.

However I'd also be interested in the Titans, as presumably they're some of the Old Ones humanity hasn't forgotten yet. So the Venatori and the Archive haven't been successful against them, so maybe we get to see more of the Oblivion War as well.

I also hope we see some of the Egyptian gods. The Egyptian Pantheon religion lasted for twice that of Christianity, assuming you discount Jewish tradition.Personally I think the Spear of Osiris was the Egyptian version of a Knight of the Cross. Also we know Father Forthill and some other priests have tattoos of the Eye of Horus so we might get some more significant information about that as well.

Anyway thoughts? Theories? Which god(s) and why?

Jim's dropped a lot of breadcrumbs about Egypt, so off to the Giza Plateau.

This, I think (based (as you say) upon the breadcrumbs).

We've got plenty of Native American waiting in the wings for LtW and/or GG to usher it onstage... let's see what the naagloshi-scion story brings us, dropping in just a week or so!  This is what I'd most like to see explored (of the likely breadcrumbs dropped)! 

I'd also like to see some Hindu material come forward.  I don't think we've had ANY breadcrumbs there, however...?

Bad Alias:
We're going to be restricted to "dead" religions as Jim doesn't want to mess around with anything that important to anyone if he isn't intimately familiar with, so Hinduism is out.

Egyptian sounds good. Thoth is one I'd like to see. "He was the god of wisdom, writing, hieroglyphs, science, magic, art, judgment, and the dead." - Wikipedia. Any god of magic could be fun.

Greek, Norse, and Egyptian gods are the ones we usually see. Probably because we know more about them than most old religions.

Yuillegan:
Pretty much all of them tbh. Definitely the Greco-Roman pantheon, more Norse, more Egyptian and even South American and North American. Indian, Chinese, Celtic, Australian Aborigine all would be good. Also ancient Sumerian and Mesopotamian.

You have to have Zeus and Poseiden (now we have Hades) and Cronus. You have to have Thor. Horus and Set, Ra and Apep/Apophis, Osiris and Isis.

Also Bad Alias - Hinduism used to be out. But no longer, more recent interviews have Jim saying he would like to do Hindu gods and goddesses. I think he has gotten more confident and learned some more stuff about Hindu culture, so perhaps he is feeling like he can now he is older and wiser.
