Talk:Grenth

Shouldn't we have this as part of a geater category? The Gods of Tyria or something? --Karlos

What do you call and ice elemenatlist? What is latin for ice? Freezomancer? :)--Karlos 18:06, 7 Jul 2005 (EST)


 * It would be Cryomancer, I think... Xaque 15:44, 25 June 2006 (CDT)

Ritualists?
Could Grenth be also be the patron god of ritualists? considering their skills... gaining powers from the ashes of dead, temporary binding spirits to mortal plane, etc. --62.142.255.147 20:14, 29 March 2006 (CST)


 * He is. Check out the Blessings of the gods. Likewise Lyssa is goddess of Mesmers and Assassins. --Xeeron 20:41, 29 March 2006 (CST)

Assassins
Directly from the GW:F Manual

''The Assassins of Cantha pay homage to Grenth, and rarely take on a job unless a priest of Grenth places a blessing upon the task.''

soo... they worship both lyssa and grenth? should we add this? --Sami 16:38, 20 July 2006 (CDT)

Some Assassins worship Lyssa. Most worship Grenth. (The Lyssa worshippers pay homage to both Grenth and Lyssa, so yes, they do worship both). ArcaneConundrum 07:11, 6 August 2006 (CDT)

Odd Detail
Abbadon was still the god of water as Grenth is now when that story from the inscriptions at the bottom of statues was written but it mentions ice. How would Grenth have water powers before Abbadon was outcast?--24.7.108.185 19:13, 4 January 2007 (CST)Nex Umbra

Grenth's History
What was Grenth before he became a God?
 * A deer. Seriously though, it doesn't say anywhere. The only hint we get that he wasn't a god since the beginning of time is a quest in the Underworld, and speculation based on the ending of Nightfall. So we have no idea what he was before he became a god, but it's entirely possible he was a Necromancer of some kind, based on his appearance and portfolio. --Valentein 08:36, 18 January 2007 (CST)

It is more likly he was a reaper. Whatever the case, it is confirmed the time at which he upsurped Dhuum (sometime between Abbadon's exile and the exodus).--TheDrifter 23:04, 19 January 2007 (CST)


 * I'm removing the recently added statement, it contradicts established dates and misinterprets Olias' statement. See talk:Dhuum for details. -- Gordon Ecker 01:14, 21 January 2007 (CST)

Spoilers?
Should the last paragraph have a spoilers tag, as it relates to the allegiances in Nightfall, or is it fine as it is? RossMM 08:31, 18 January 2007 (CST)
 * It should. - BeXoR  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 23:53, 19 January 2007 (CST)

Dhuum and the scriptures of Grenth
Isn't it possible thst the scriptures could have been written long after his first follower and that, grenth could have been gathering followers for his great war agains't dhuum. Or a great coup :P.
 * Sure, the scriptures could've been compiled from oral history decades or centuries after the events in question. Before he was a god, Grenth could've been a Reaper, a Rider of Dhuum or some kind of demigod rather than a mortal. The earliest hard evidence of Dhuum is the desecrated statue in the Temple of the Six Gods, which could have been constructed at any time between 48 BE and the year of the Exodus. -- Gordon Ecker 05:57, 11 April 2007 (CDT)
