Having just done my God Statues D&D for March, I realized....there is no statue for Arma!

And for good reason! The Statues each are built somewhere that the god's followers live. Arma really doesn't have any!

Though I can't help wondering how much care for Zamorak the people of Canafis and Morytania really have. Wouldn't it make more sense to have a statue located by the kinshra instead?

But then also the Saradomin Statue I find weirdly located. Just seems completely arbitrary. I guess you could argue that the H.A.M. are Saradominists, so it's located there for them? OK, I guess.

Someone made a thread commenting about how it would be neat to see the goblins choose to follow Arma after Bandos was defeated by him. I could definitely see this being an interesting way to do it. Could put an Arma statue down in Dorgesh-Kaan maybe?

I understand that it's kind of part of Armadyl's whole shtick that he selfishly caused the death of nearly his entire own race, but clearly he didn't manage to kill them all, so...maybe it could also make sense for some of them to...you know...reproduce? Not saying it necessarily makes sense to have a village of Aviansie on Gielinor or anything, but...maybe?

Finally a place to post my god statue headcanons!

If you build a Zilyana statue in Oog'log then the watchmen in Yanille point and laugh at the ogres.

If you build a Graardor statue in Lumbridge then the goblins on that side of the river start pogging.

If you build a Zilyana statue in Canafis then Safalaan, Veliaf, and Efaritay try to hold in their laughter while the other residents of Morytania throw a fit.

If you build a Kril statue in Taverley then the Kinshra come up from the dungeon and worship it.

I will protect Gielinor. Zaros has no love for its people.

The majority of Armadyl's followers were Avianese.
Many of those were either wiped out when Zammy nuked Forinthy or got trapped in the Balltle over the Godsword.
Oddly, leaving his only followers left were the handful of Guardians of Armadyl in the Temple of Ikov.

His followers also tended to stay in the floating citadels.

True, he did have followers north of Ardy in the teleport link to the Stormguard Citadel, but that (along with the rest of the citadels) was eventually abandoned.

You could always build one near Armadyl's tower, just south of Falador.

Whilst technically Saradomin's realm, the tower has become a bit of a roost for a few Armadylians, simply due to it being one of the only places where Armadyl may be present.
Considering that Blue boy and Feathers have been allied in the past, there's not going to be too much aggro from Saradominists, save for maybe a local Karen or two.
