Game: Baldur's Gate II: Shadows Of Amn
Religion: Beholder Worship (Not Amnish!)
Who: Blind Eye
Beliefs: Pretty straightforward, this one. The cost of entry is a simple case of tearing your eyes out and you're in. It's so easy to join. An old priest called Blind Eye will attempt to convince you that this is worth it since there is nothing in Faerun worth seeing anyhow. All of this while six-foot tall valkyrie women with boobs like a dead heat in a zeppelin race stroll idly past you. In the end you'll discover that this particular pantheon is all about the praise of an evil, giant, slimy, floating eyeball called a Beholder. No one should worship an evil, giant, slimy, floating eyeball. It's as stupid as praying to crisps.
Known Issues: Changing your mind may be a key concern here since popping your eyes back in again will have little effect on account of having severed the stringy gory bit that attaches them to your brain. They'll just rot in their sockets, causing your face to smell like scrotum.
