I don't know nearly enough about the Queen of Ashes to consider making a character follow her yet. Besides, being compared to Bandos, Tuska, and the apparently all-seeing, all-knowing Xau-Tak doesn't get my hopes up on her being a God worth following. I don't want to follow a God that we will eventually have no choice but to directly defy. (Bandos in the Cave Goblin series, the Elder Gods in the Elder Gods series, Xau-Tak in the Pirate series, Amascut in the Desert Series, etc.) A

For the record, our defiance of Bandos was explained somewhat satisfactorily during WE2, during which he told us that he was impressed and vindicated by our victory. Forget if he had anything to say about Zanik.

Though it seems most of it has been people debating about the exact issue. Ultimately following an Elder God would be pointless, as once she learns of the Great Revision, that's out the window... Bandos tries to kill you (twice) in the Goblin quests, and following a god that tries to kill me... no. Just no. So THAT would be out the window before he even returns.
Honestly at this point I'm torn between Saradomin, Zamorak, Godless, and the Pantheon. That or just being a character who sides with whoever offers her the most at the time...

Alright then... by process of elimination, Saradomin.

Zamorak is too similar to Zaros in terms of origin/NPC circles/methodology (also relatively weak atm), Godless have too little content to justify following them, and there is no Pantheon emissary, making roleplaying a pure exercise in headcanon.

Saradomin is a neat character, has interesting/varied followers, tons of lore, and a good aesthetic.

Go forth now. Be a smurf paladin.
Patrolling Lore FC almost makes you wish for a Great Revision.

Hmmm, though lately I've been talking a lot about Balance...

I think I've finally gotten it down to Saradomin, Guthix, and being a free agent. Just need a bit more leaning on one of those directions..

Being a Guthixian basically means you're being a free agent at this point.

You must follow Big High War God. Big High War God the strong god. Weak must follow strong.

Big High War God not try to kill you. Big High War God try to kill puny cave goblin girl. She no listen to Big High War God. She think. Dem who thinks must die.

Big High War God Dead? Yes. But he respawn soon and smash dumb chicken with club. Dumb bird get lucky. Luck not last forever.

You no follow Big High War God, you die. Big High War God kill dumb old gods. He real strong. Other gods too weak.

saradomin would be a good choice, he has tons of different followers each with their own varying views on saradominism. he has arguably the most interesting character development of the gods and him being redeemed in future content will benefit his following even more.

You might want to also consider thinking about "V" though he is dead and most likely will be but idk. He is like in the middle of the spectrum between Guthixian stuff and Saradomin's sheriff/hunting of active threats stuff.
