Six Gods - Who is your God and why?

The Template
Kormir. With out knowlage and truth, all else fails. and, she has a great story....
Dark King Assassin
Dwayna for me although i dont know why O_0
Mei Fen
Lyssa. She is the one who sets the boundary between fact and fiction, who teaches us that nothing is as it seems and that everything is simply a matter of perception.
And because I'm a mesmer... XD

All gods have nice concepts and spheres of influence.
Mine fave is Balth. Because I believe in goodness and strife but also retribution.
My least favorite is Melandru.
Plus, all gods should have their own realms, to receive the souls of their followers.

In lore, all gods do. In gamplay, there isn't due to lack of resources on the live team. Linsey said that the Live Team has spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to implement the three last god realms, but it couldn't have been done.
Swahnee
Dwayna because i like the idea of healing, protecting, relieving the pain etc.., and Melandru for the idea of being one with nature, although i don't play ranger much, but it's a matter of how that profession works in the game.
Zarion Silverarrow
Dhuum
because yes.
because yes.
Gennadios
I sincerely hope my human characters won't be forced to pick a side in GW2.
The human gods seem to become more petty, useless, and ineffective with each subsequent campaign.
I'd much prefer the Eternal Alchemy, or possibly the Charr way for my human heroes.

Neo Atomisk
The six gods are HUMAN gods. not all races worship them.
Konig Des Todes
Sylvari don't worship the six gods. Heh.
Though Neo isn't exactly right to call them human gods. True, Anet called them such recently with the GW2 lore - but that's probably due to the humans being the only major race which worships the six gods. We've seen dwarves, forgotten, and possibly centaurs and naga all worship or follow the six gods along with the humans.

Lord Mip
My favourite god is Melandru, because she seems to have a sort of neutral stance which is in my opinion the wisest as it is very unclear which faction is actually pursuing good, for all have flaws.
Vlad S
I'd pick Dhuum... I mean come on.
I guess when it comes down to the six gods I'd probably pick Grenth. What would the world be like without the Underworld Gangster?

Morvydd
Melandru, because I'm a treehugger 
Xman
Arameth Juson (my main) is an assassin that follows Lyssa. He constantly prays for luck in his missions. (he has skills but a little luck never hurt anybody)
Rozilyn
Grenth for sure. He sees the power and beauty in death in an almost neutral way. He doesn't demand everyone die, they'll all come to him eventually and none of that silly groveling. Simply devote your life to serving him , use power to prove your worth and if you die doing it, well, you can serve him in death and perhaps not mess up so badly.
ruk1a
grenth he's my bro
Celepton
Lyssa because she's psychedelicious ^^
"Many have eyes, but few have seen."

Shady Guy
Tempting as it is to say Dhuum since he banscythes people, or Abaddon since he can dance, the only two gods really deserving in this universe are clear...
Oink and Yakkington!!
The good prof does a lot more for me than the six ever did.

Epitaph
Lyssa for me. Illusions, Delusions, fact versus fiction, managing the chaos in the universe, etc. Everything she does is just awesome. Not mention she is as Celepton say "Psychedelicious".
<3 Lyssa

Kormir because go para or go noob island!
Samite Guardian
It would have to be either Dwayna or Balthazar, but being a primary heal/prot monk i would have to say Dwayna 
Dot Rotten
Mine is either Grenth or Lyssa.. both always strike me as being pretty epic, and Lyssa's 1 million heads (exaggeration) is epic also ;p

I’ve always been a fan of Melandru, if only because I feel that everyone should have a pet. Well, everyone apart from Mhenlo. He doesn’t get one until he learns how to heal properly.
Konig Des Todes
You should note that the post you quoted was prior to the demo which showed the change in the biography. At the time of that post, we were told there'd be a question for heritage and social status, but there was never mention of a question on gods. Now, obviously, that's different.
Aycee
Balthazar all the way.
King Size
deadly arts 
= grenth
on second thought i wish deadly arts were more..deadly

Lyssa
liked the duality, the illusion, the drama, and I started as a mesmer.
I've grown to like Melandru as well seeing as Lyssa is a lot less prominenet comapired to the other gods, and in ways that is fitting.

Kraviec
There are NO gods for the Charr!
Dwayna IRL - she's just nice. And I'd never worship Kormir, she was just being useless and then grabbed the essence for herself (whooo, i'm the great goddess of truff!!)

Godess Melandru is m God! Protector and destructor of nature <3
Heavenz
There are other living Gods and deities in the world, does this thread apply to those? (e.g. Arachni, Menzies, The Great Dwarf, the Titans, etc.)
Aside from these, I would have to pick Lyssa. It would be really interesting to enter her realm(s) (assuming she controls any) and discover her secrets and knowledge. The Vabbian culture developed on her behalf is truly beautiful.

misamoriko
Melandru for sure. My mains are all rangers and I like nature and all that cliche junk. Though, I also really like Lyssa. Vabbi is one of my favorite places and it's all based around her.
Yae Mozs
Kormir.. She does nothing, but begin nightfall, and becomes a god. Its not like we did all that hard work or anything...
That proves that kormir is the goddess of leeching or luck. I need luck to get by bds and sell it for $$ and i need to leech builds off others in order to farm stuff for $$.

Steelhawk Warblade
Balthazar hands down! As a warrior I have to say he is awsome!
Valencount
Melandru and Kormir, my mains are Ele and Ranger.
But to go a little deeper, Melandru personifies nature. Nature is very double edged. While Dwayna and Grenth are opposites, Melandru kinda stands between the two of them. With her it's about staying alive. As for Kormir...She was a human not too long ago. I think of all the gods she understands what humans face and is probably a little closer than the rest.

wilebill
Melandru because a Ranger is my main and Avatar of Melandru is always in my hero party, Melonni.
he goddess of earth and nature, Melandru is the favored god of Rangers and earth Elementalists. It is said the Maguuma druids at one time worshipped this deity, but there are none alive today who can confirm the truth of this rumor. Melandru is frequently depicted as a human female torso whose lower body is the trunk, branches, and roots of a living tree. Her statues attract weary travelers. Beneath her branches await plenty of fresh water and shelter from the elements.
A cool goddess of nature and she runs McDonald's in Tyria. Who could ask for anything more?

Nay of the Ether
Melandru, cause I think she's hot lol, as well as she's one of the most overlooked dieties yet has her hand in pretty much every aspect of tyria if you think about it. I may be a necro at heart but grenth is a noob compared to melandru, he couldn't even beat dhuum by himself, yet we can.
