Lord Drakan said :
Crondis - Crocodile-headed goddess of resourcefulness and pleasure and part of the Menaphite Pantheon.
Crondis should be the goddess of resourcefulness and modesty, not resourcefulness and pleasure.
For reference, Jex has this to say about Crondis:
"She embodies modesty, diligence and resourcefulness, so Crondis is worshipped by the desert's subsistence farmers and hunters. Conversely, she proves unpopular amongst society's elite."
"Crondis teaches that people should take no more than they need and make do with little, which, as you can imagine, conflicts with the values of many in the richer echelons of society."
Also, it is writ that on the Third Day of Tumeken's Dream:
Original message details are unavailable.
Tumeken caught the eye of the crocodile, nodded, and said: "You are, indeed, the most resourceful of creatures, taking pleasure in hunting for no more than your own sustenance. I shall give unto you a piece of myself, so that you may help me rule this desert realm, an example to my people not to overindulge in their physical pleasures, so that they too can be blessed by Tumeken." And so, the lesser god Crondis was born, and Tumeken, happy with his day's work, returned to his camp at the centre of the desert to prepare for tomorrow's journey.
P.S. Great work on this massive thread!

Reminds me of the old "facing the void" expression of Mahjarrat, maybe they believe their deceased go to space?
Maybe sacrificed Mahjarrat are *literally* annihilated? Bizarre Boron Fusswell, scryer extraordinaire. OSRS: POH ideas & RS3 minigames & achievement ideas !

Perhaps you're half right; perhaps we can't win. But we can fight.
