Which diety to use?

Hiya, I need a bit of help to make sure the background/history of my character comforms to Avlis standards. Mainly, I'm not familiar with the concepts/beliefs of the dieties and their followers. I've been a standard FR player for YEARS! lol

I'm simply looking for the best choice in Avlis to replace;

1) Tyr-God of Justice. I need a stiff-necked, narrowminded, goody-goody such as Tyr and his followers were.

2) Sharress-Goddess of Lust, Hendonism, and Sensual Fullfillment.

3) Loviatar-Goddess of Pain.

While I have looked through the deity list provided on the forums, I am undecieded as of yet as to which would be best, so I thought I would post here to ask the opinions of those who play in and run the world.

I would appreciate any and all comments to help me make my decision. Thank you in advance for all your help. ^_^

It's all about Gorethar - Tyr is a sissy in comparison. The answer to 2 and 3 are irrelevant. :P

Here's my sugestions. :)

Goethar would be best.
2) Sharress-Goddess of Lust, Hendonism, and Sensual Fullfillment.
Kelvos is close... Or else there's Mishlekh which would work somewhat as well.
3) Loviatar-Goddess of Pain.
Hmmm Maleki might work there, but Evrak might be better.

... what?

Please don't spread disinformation about Gods... Toranites have a hard enough time trying to explain to people they are NOT goody-goody, and NOT about Justice.

Toran is all about Order. Order and Justice are totally different things. A dictatorship is pretty damn orderly... is it just? Hell no.

There's more to most gods than basic concepts and labels, read the World Info posts on them if you still don't get it.

for 2) Forian also works, according to a discussion I had with Orleron a while back. Do what you want, when you want, how you want... sounds pretty sensual to me. :)
