I always revered Saradomin to try and do his best for the majority of Gielinor. I can wholesomely sympathise with him due to the fact he is a humanised God in nature. However it is the very reason I cannot follow him as God, for I know the bounds of my temper and recklessness in fits of rage and anger.

His opposition of other Gods and perhaps his xenophobia of some races he considers evil for their nature, not choices, also causes me to doubt his works for the greater good. But I would seek to address him as a favourable second tied with Zamorak, if he did as Zaros stated: Widened his world view a little.

But in all, I see no reason to slander him, nor disrespect his following, for there was a time in my youth, I grew to appreciate being a White Knight in service of his faction.


This. This is my view. Except I am keeping an eye and Zaros. Too many crystals out of line and bye bye birdy.

I don't like Saradomin because he has too much human and too little god in him. Humans have lots of bad sides and Saradomin has nearly all of them. NO
I do not ship ZamorakxZaros.
I follow them. And Marimbo, the best t5 god.

Then again, the Adventurer (aka: you) is human as well. In need of human things - like food suitable for humans, chairs made for a human frame, clothes fitting a human body and maybe even some human companionship to create more humans ;) Even if you currently reside in Elf Central and prefer to hang out with living rocks - you are still human with human needs.

And with Saradomin, you at least know he would consider those needs. The other gods., aside from Guthix, seem to be less inclined to do that.
It's too late. You've awakened the gazebo.
It catches you and eats you.

Human's just aren't good gods. Saradomin's actions show it. He is a good human but a god? Not a good idea.

I'd say that's a good summary. I feel like Saradomin is a very human character, that just got hit hard with "absolute power corrupts absolutely" and has been increasingly more willing to exert that power over those that don't do what he says. As The World Guardian, we need to be careful not to fall into the same mindset.

I really hope we eventually get his backstory on whatever the human home plane was. I always envisioned him as one of those judges that they said were in charge of the society, perhaps stealing the Elder Crown from their leader, believing that he could use its power to improve the world. In the words of Doctor Horrible:

The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.
