        So I take it that Babeester Gor is not really a "career choice" sort of cult. You don't grow up with a calling to BG; you have worship thrust onto you by some horrible experience that demands bloody revenge, after which you (presumably) die? In that case, I'm assuming most BG worshippers from previous games should be redefined as Maran Devor or Erantha Gor worshippers (to keep down the population of self-immolating avengers). I like this; BG now has that "I am given to death" sort of feel you get in "doomed hero" samurai films.
