For some strange reason, you have become the high priest of an empire. All the high priest usually does is chill next to the king until they die. You decide to make something up for the people to believe, something to explain unexplainable phenomena. You wait a bit and spend a night righting the "Holy Book of _____", filled with all the gods, heros, myths, and legends to be made into customs for your society. What are they?

I'm rather unoriginal so I'd probably just copy the mythology from Chaos Legion.

Seeing as I am Greek, and you can't really create anything more badass than Greek mythology, I would just copy it.

But there would be more naked chicks. Lots more.

I'd jus create a massive mythology filled with the best bits of Greek, Norse and Celtic mythology. And since those are the three best mythologies anyway, such a combination automatically wins the thread, by default :D.

Basically, we worship the holy Chin.

The chin is good, and bestows on our race the gift of the B-Movie. We look upon this gift and smile.

However, we are in constant battle with the Bathians (it's Hubilub, that guy is obsessed with taking baths) and will slay them where they stand.
I choose to follow this religion. All hail the mighty Bruce and his holy Chin.

"-The Chin be with you all."
"-And also with you."
"-Groovy."

Well, I'll go with the Pimppeter and just copy my own old mythology, namely Norse!

We already have that, plus a lot of mead. You're free to join us in Valhalla, where we drink, fight and listen to Manowar. Bring Zeus and Hercules too if you like, but I'd rather you leave Hades at home. I hear he's a dick sometimes.

Yeah, I kinda made up a mythology for my fantasy story, but it's kinda detailed...

Basically, golden city of light, Angels with temporal altering powers, whole pantheon of Angels, each with specific traits and jobs.

Part of the myths of the land include the characters I'm writing about, doing knightly things...

There's a lot more.

Hindu mythology, my friend. Hindu. Mythology.

There's an elephant man, starship battles (I shit you not), and the Universe is basically a game played by a god.

I'd just take all the bits and pieces from Monty Python's Flying Circus.

"Fionn McOddyseus O'Thor rode his mighty longboat into the throat of the Hydra in the black seas surrounding Crete, stroking his long ginger beard and shouting "Anyone for a pint?!" at the top of his booming voice"

Code:
FATAL ERROR: AWESOME OVERLOAD
See, you've got the right idea here :). The Apocalypse is no longer the Rapture or the day that Thor goes stupid and hits the world worm over the head with a hammer, or the Ice Titans finally break free from below Mount Olympus. It's the day the world can no longer handle the sheer amount of awesome from these three great mythologies.

Meh. The Hindu mythology is okay, but Celtic mytholgy is full of much more awesome stuff than that. And Norse mythology has a giant dragon circling the bottom of the planet's oceans biting it's own tail, and when it wakes up and gets a bump on the noggin from Thor, the world will end. That beats any elephant god anyday. The Greek gods play games with the lives of men on a regular basis, too.

It will include Xenu and golden DC10s. One's place in society will be determined by one's Thetan level. The more wealth you give, the higher you are in society.

...so basically Roman Catholicism. No, wait...

Everyone in my order would be called The Sons of the Orange Band. A sacred warrior order of the Escapist, fighting invaders and trolls with undying glorious fury.

The pantheon would consist of:
Exbawks
Piasthrey
Peysey
and
Wii

Those who worship Piasthrey and Exbawks are violent and constantly bickering and fighting amongst themselves.
Disciples of Peysey are the most advanced of the bunch and refuse to share their knowledge or in fact have anything to do with anyone else.
And the Wiites consist of hedonists, complete and utter party animals who only care about having a good time.

A canadian laser bear comes out of nowhere and saves the day, defeating the wretched purple hippo because it has been spreading too much love.

I belong to a race called the Toiletarians.

We sing songs of praise and glory in name of the toilet.

THE TOILET REMAINS THE ONE TRUE EQUALIZER!
