Mongoose
I've always wondered at the potential for a more martial side of this cult, and particularly the cult as the god of surface darkness, rather than the troll merchant cult version.
I was also further intrigued by the idea in Troll Gods that the spear is the symbolic weapon of Argan Argar, spears seeming particularly un-trollish. I like the idea of humans worshipping the night and had visions of a kind of yelmalian style of cult but one that reveres darkness rather than light/sky - the opposite side of the same coin, so to speak.
This is, of course, due to my heavy bias toward ancient Greek/hoplite imagery.
We know that the Kingdom of night was centred around Argan Argar worship, and that many humans did so, and we know of the Kitori tribe and of darkness worshipping Orlanthi in northern Dragon Pass.
Does any of the Mongoose stuff have good Argan Argar reference material? Any second age mentions of Argan Argar?
Does anyone know if this side of the cult has ever been explored or hinted at? Anyone have any suggestions that I can steal and make look like my own? Probably a question for a different forum, but I like this one...
