Not enough 2E in my opinion. So rare to see such good 2E work. I have 2 requests (do you do requests?). I know it's probably been done, but never as well done as these.This thread is for my project to update the Monster Mythology deities to the 2nd Edition Faiths & Avatars style format. All future write-ups will be posted in this thread, and I will edit this first post with links to the posts. Should keep the forum a bit more tidy.

Thanks, I really appreciate it!Not enough 2E in my opinion. So rare to see such good 2E work. I have 2 requests (do you do requests?). I know it's probably been done, but never as well done as these.
1. The Lords of The Nine...and maybe a few other archdevils as the lesser gods they originally were in 1E...but done Faiths & Avatars style.
2. Darkness (Erebus?) from the movie Legend as a demigod?...and presumably his father...Chaos? The Void? I'm a bit lost about what they were hinting at in the movie.
Anyway. Great stuff.
Of course do whatever you want. This is a very labor intensive project and you have to do whatever keeps you going. However, it is very much a more modern D&D thing for the Lords of the Nine to have their own cults, even up into 5e. I can't remember if it was a 1e/2e or not though.
As I recall, Dragon #223 explicitly says that the Lords of the Nine have their own cults, but also says that they aren't able to grant them spells. We do see a cleric of Asmodeus (a half-elf named Loviath) in A Paladin in Hell (affiliate link), but there's only limited information given about her.
