After watching some videos from the past beta, I saw how you could pick a god and origin city.
Can you please add more options in the Deity selection area including evil Deities. Deities like Bane, Cyric, Lolth, Tempus, Unberlee, etc
Since they do nothing for game stats it should be an easy update.

I like it... reminds me of EQ, although in EQ it had an actual effect in game.
Also for got to say, add the agnostic choice.
I'd like to see a run of foundry missions just for villainous characters. Give my rogue the opportunity to just bust heads and "steal", rather than running about always saving the world.
Maybe you got branded by some Cyric worshipers ?
Not sure why someone could not be a mercenary, worship an evil god and be killing evil to fill his/her purse. Evil kills evil all the time for their own reasons.
It's no longer painful since Kelemvor's take over. It just is. No pleasure, no pain, you're simply placed with others of your ethical background.
However, I suspect that most people who are requesting agnostic or atheist really are asking for something better described as either 'denier' or 'undecided'.
Denier could be defined as "there may be powerful creatures that call themselves gods, but there is no true evidence that they are our creators or a moral guide". The denier chooses to ignore (passive) or defy (active) the will of the creatures who call themselves gods. That's not far from the agnostic position, except for some hair splitting.
Undecided I see as someone who recognizes the existence and authority of the gods, but who acknowledges none more than any other. They may also be holding out for a greater god, or a better choice - not finding resonance in the moral and active positions of any of the known pantheon.
Both positions can be easily fulfilled by allowing the user to select "none" as an option. The rest is just RP.
I would rather see a non denominational option than an agnostic option.
He is imprisoned in his own plane of existence, not able to escape and wreck havoc on the rest of the cosmos, but still able to grant spells and thus grant power to his followers.

Haha... I still remember all the trouble I had from making my Bard a follower of Veeshan.
EverQuest... now that was some true glory days as far as MMORPG'ing goes
As for the tattoos, like someone else mentioned you could of been branded or it could of been something in your character's backstory, like a remnant of the high fantasy version of going through a goth phase as a teen or something

The Neverwinter main story quests will be told form a heroes point of view but many people plan on creating foundry campaigns for evil align characters. The devs said that even high end group content will be there for DM's too use. Restrictions are silly , that's been the problem with 4th edition, people should be able to make good ,evil or neutral characters.
Haha, I can totally see this happening!
"Great and terrible Lord Asmodeus, hear my plea! I, your devoted servant, call upon the power of your dark wrath to smite . . . uh . . . well . . . to smite, um, YOU. Okay, this is awkward..."
Nothing at this moment, it clearly states so on the very same screen:

Check the text at the top.
Seriously this^, simply THIS^^^
I should not have to pick a random deity or background that doesn't even fit my character when I can just WRITE those down and the effect will ultimately be the same. Simply let us fill in that information ourselves.
That's kinda odd, I mean I guess it's nice that they make you spend a moment thinking of your character as an RP character for a moment, this being based on a PnP RPG and all, but if it's purely cosmetic and won't be more than a line of text on your character's info page I don't see why they couldn't just let you fill it out yourself. Heck as is I can see plenty of people just ignoring that bit of per-rendered text and just writing "So-and-So is a worshiper of Shar" or whatever in their bio and RPing it as such.
Of course the downside to this is that clerics will still be using the same sparkly holy light spells rather than..um...not sparkly unholy darkness spells I guess. But that's kinda something they'll be bugging me even on good or neutral clerics because everyone will have the same spells and such, I don't know how 4th ed does cleric as a whole, but in other editions if I made a cleric of Tempus, a cleric of Torm, and a cleric of Silvanus or other nature deity they'd most likely be built rather differently.
