The Old Improbable Island Wiki

RELIGION

An organized (or disorganized) group (or single individual) that believes (or disbelieves) in supernatural (or mundane) forces (or . . . um . . . not-forces?) that may (or may not) or may not (or may) exist (or not) ¹⁾. These are usually quite confusing, as demonstrated by this description.

RELIGIONS OF NOTE

Worshippers of Chaos, the One True Faith²⁾

Followers of the Three Hedgehogs.

First Improbable Island Church Of Eris Esoteric.

Those crazy worshippers of The Watcher.³⁾

The Order of Alchemy.

Whoever was stupid enough to elevate The Undead Dreaming Catfish God to Godhood.

The 3 Abrahamic Religions

Whatever religion Capelthwaite practices in the Old Church. ⁴⁾⁵⁾

The Pope.

Whatever religion was responsible for the toothpick shrine that was built and promptly forgotten about in the Raven Inn. . .oh, wait, “Religions *Of Note*”. Never mind.

RELIGIOUS WARS

Through a recent agreement between religious representatives ⁶⁾⁷⁾ ⁸⁾ , all inter-religious wars have been cancelled. This is what's known as a Gentleman's Agreement.

¹⁾

And unlike some pansy role-playing games, you don't get to make a Wisdom save to disbelieve. Or, rather, you CAN, but something will be chewing on your leg by then.

²⁾

unless you worship someone else, in which case its One False Faith.

³⁾

You know the ones we mean. They ask you for offerings. Yeah, those ones.

⁴⁾

Not that we want to know. No. Not at all.

⁵⁾

It's Metaphysical Nihilism, in case you were wondering.

⁶⁾

Which the Erisians were NOT invited to. You would think anyone with any knowledge of Eris would invite her to everything. No good can come of this.

⁷⁾

Of course we wouldn't invite Eris! The invite said religious representatives only! . . . I maintain that the Erisians invite got lost in the mail. While being eaten by the neighbour's dog. During a Drive Kill.

⁸⁾

Anyway, think what would have happened if all the Gods had shown up! Hedgipus Vs. Catfish, Three Hedgehogs Vs. Robotni- I mean The Pope, Eris Vs. The Watcher. . .while mud wrestling. . .Mmm, where was I?
